DESCRIPTION:Let G be a compact p-adic Lie group with Iwasawa algebra R ove
 r Qp. Any finitely generated R-module M has an invariant\, called its cano
 nical dimension\, which equals the dimension of the support of M if G is c
 ommutative. Ardakov and Wadsley proved that if the Lie algebra of G is spl
 it and semisimple\, there is a nontrivial constant C=C(G) such that any\nm
 odule with dimension less than C has dimension 0. I will talk about how to
  remove the condition that the Lie algebra of G is split\, and also detail
  my\nmotivation for thinking about modules over Iwasawa algebras. This is 
 joint work with Konstantin Ardakov.
