Abstract (Original language)
Résumé

We announce various results concerning the structure of compactly generated simple locally compact groups. We introduce a local invariant, called the structure lattice, which consists of commensurability classes of compact subgroups with open normaliser, and show that its properties reflect the global structure of the ambient group.

On annonce divers résultats concernant la structure de groupes localement compacts, simples et compactement engendrés. Un invariant local de ces groupes, appelé treillis structurel, est introduit ; il consiste en des classes de commensurabilité de sous-groupes compacts à normalisateur ouvert. Les propriétés de ce treillis refètent la structure globale du groupe ambiant.
