Abstract

The theory of complex Stein spaces can be extended to some extent to p-adic “Stein” spaces. The simplest form of the Oka-Grauert-Gromov Principle asserts that complex analytic bundles over complex Euclidean spaces are holomorphically trivial. In the p-adic case it was conjectured by Serre and resolved in the affirmative by Quillen and Suslin that the same is true for algebraic bundles. We shall show that this is true also for p-adic analytic bundles. This result can be used to establish a structure theorem for the base locus of jet bundles of any order.
