Let be topological semigroup, we consider an appropriate semigroup compactification of . In this paper we study the connection between subgroups of a maximal group in a minimal left ideal of , which arise as equivalence classes of some closed left congruence, and the minimal flow characterized by the left congruence. A particular topology is defined on a maximal group and it is shown that a closed subgroup under this topology is precisely the intersection of an equivalence class with the maximal group for some left congruence on .

In this paper we study the connection between subgroups of a maximal group in a minimal left ideal of $\widehat{S}$, which arise as equivalence classes of some closed left congruence, and the minimal flow characterized by the left congruence. A particular topology is defined on a maximal group and it is shown that a closed subgroup under this topology is precisely the intersection of an equivalence class with the maximal group for some left congruence on $\widehat{S}$.
