Virtually free pro-p groups
Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS, Tome 118 (2013), pp. 193-211.

We prove that in the category of pro-p groups any finitely generated group G with a free open subgroup splits either as an amalgamated free product or as an HNN-extension over a finite p-group. From this result we deduce that such a pro-p group is the pro-p completion of a fundamental group of a finite graph of finite p-groups.
