Abstract: We study the Chabauty compactification of two families of closed subgroups of $SL(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$. The first family is the set of all parahoric subgroups of $SL(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$. Although the Chabauty compactification of parahoric subgroups is well studied, we give a different and more geometric proof using various Levi decompositions of $SL(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$. Let $C$ be the subgroup of diagonal matrices in $SL(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$. The second family is the set of all $SL(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$-conjugates of $C$. We give a classification of the Chabauty limits of conjugates of $C$ using the action of $SL(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$ on its associated Bruhat--Tits building and compute all of the limits for $nleq4$ (up to conjugacy). In contrast, for $ngeq7$ we prove there are infinitely many $SL(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$-nonconjugate Chabauty limits of conjugates of $C$. Along the way we construct an explicit homeomorphism between the Chabauty compactification in $mathfraksl(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$ of $SL(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$-conjugates of the $p$-adic Lie algebra of $C$ and the Chabauty compactification of $SL(n,mathbb{Q}_p)$-conjugates of $C$.
