Let be the th term in the filtration of elliptic-curve points over a local field. Reduction givesof order four, whilehas order two. The formal logarithm is injective on and identifies it with an additive subgroup of , so is torsion-free. A finite subgroup of therefore injects into , whose order is . Thus divides .
