The group of all such p-adic functionals is viewed as a p-adic dual group of G, and is studied from the point of view of functional analysis. An analogue of the Hahn--Banach Theorem is proved; this result shows that there are sufficiently many p-adic functionals to be interesting.\n  There is a natural homomorphism from G to its p-adic double dual, and one main result that is proved is that the image of G in this double dual is dense in an appropriate topology.
