The Demushkin group, named after the Russian mathematician Dmitry Demushkin, refers to a class of groups that arise in the study of group theory, particularly in the area of pro-p groups. A pro-p group is a class of topological groups that can be understood as inverse limits of finite groups whose orders are powers of a prime \\( p \\).
