Equivalence of certain free topological groups

Jan Baars (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we give a complete isomorphical classification of free topological groups F M ( X ) of locally compact zero-dimensional separable metric spaces X . From this classification we obtain for locally compact zero-dimensional separable metric spaces X and Y that the free topological groups F M ( X ) and F M ( Y ) are isomorphic if and only if C p ( X ) and C p ( Y ) are linearly homeomorphic.

Equivariant completions

Michael Megrelishvili (1994)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

An important consequence of a result of Katětov and Morita states that every metrizable space is contained in a complete metrizable space of the same dimension. We give an equivariant version of this fact in the case of a locally compact σ -compact acting group.

Every reasonably sized matrix group is a subgroup of S ∞

Robert Kallman (2000)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Every reasonably sized matrix group has an injective homomorphism into the group S of all bijections of the natural numbers. However, not every reasonably sized simple group has an injective homomorphism into S .

Extensions of topological and semitopological groups and the product operation

Aleksander V. Arhangel'skii, Miroslav Hušek (2001)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The main results concern commutativity of Hewitt-Nachbin realcompactification or Dieudonné completion with products of topological groups. It is shown that for every topological group G that is not Dieudonné complete one can find a Dieudonné complete group H such that the Dieudonné completion of G × H is not a topological group containing G × H as a subgroup. Using Korovin’s construction of G δ -dense orbits, we present some examples showing that some results on topological groups are not valid for semitopological...
