Streszczenie
Given an $S$-arithmetic group, we ask how much information on the ambient algebraic group, number field of definition, and set of places $S$ is encoded in the commensurability class of the profinite completion. As a first step, we show that the profinite commensurability class of a higher rank $S$-arithmetic group determines the number field up to arithmetical equivalence and the places in $S$ above unramified primes. We include applications to profiniteness questions of group invariants.
