Let G be a compact p ‐adic analytic group. We study K ‐theoretic questions related to the representation theory of the completed group algebra kG of G with coefficients in a finite field k of characteristic p . We show that if M is a finitely generated kG ‐module with canonical dimension smaller than the dimension of the centralizer, as a p ‐adic analytic group, of any p ‐regular element of G , then the Euler characteristic of M is trivial. Writing ℱ i for the abelian category consisting of all finitely generated kG ‐modules of dimension at most i , we provide an upper bound for the rank of the natural map from the Grothendieck group of ℱ i to that of ℱ d , where d denotes the dimension of G . We show that this upper bound is attained in some special cases, but is not attained in general.
