Abstract
AbstractWe study analogues of Cartan decompositions of Lie groups for totally disconnected locally compact groups. It is shown using these decompositions that a large class of totally disconnected locally compact groups acting on trees and buildings have the property that every continuous homomorphic image of the group is closed.
