Scientific paper

We investigate whether a finitely generated profinite group G could have a
finitely generated infinite image. A result of Dan Segal shows that this is
impossible if G is prosoluble. We prove that such an image does not exist if G
is semisimple or nonuniversal. We also investigate the existense of dense
normal subgroups in $G$.
