On Weil restriction of reductive groups and a theorem of Prasad. (Q706097)

Let \(G\) be a connected simple algebraic group over a local field \(F\) of arbitrary characteristic. In a previous paper, the author classified all Zariski dense compact subgroups of \(G(F)\). In the present paper, this information and properties of Weil restrictions are used to classify all non-discrete closed subgroups of finite covolume in the isotropic case. The latter classification was obtained earlier by Prasad and Margulis.
