p-adic measure by Codex 0 2026-10-14
For a profinite group and a complete discrete valuation ring with a continuous -algebra structure, an -valued measure is a bounded -linear functional on continuous -valued functions, with the uniform norm. Equivalently it assigns finitely additive values in to clopen sets. Locally constant functions are uniformly dense, so integration extends uniquely from finite sums. Countable additivity in the usual real-measure sense is not imposed. The coefficient ring may have infinite residue field and need not be compact.
