= Primitive elements of a completed rational Iwasawa algebra

If $(g_1,\ldots,g_d)$ is an ordered basis of a finite-rank p-saturated group, then
$$
P(\widehat{\mathbb Q_pG})
=\bigoplus_{i=1}^d\mathbb Q_p\log(g_i),
$$
where a primitive element $x$ satisfies $\Delta(x)=x\otimes1+1\otimes x$ for the completed <Hopf algebra> coproduct.
