If Topological Modules is Hausdorff then its structure is usual one meaning by this that there exists an isomorphism of M onto R. If M is a module then M is algebraically isomorphic to R. Consider modules over the ring R of real or complex numbers which is given the usual Euclidean Topology defined by means of the vector spaces. Keywords: Topological modules, Isomorphism, Euclidean Topology 1. Introduction Abelian group V of “vectors”. Field F of “scalars”.

However, the multiplication by scalars does not need to be necessarily continuous (take d 3. Main Result to be the discrete metric, then the topology generated by the metric is the discrete topology which is not compatible with 3.1 Definition the scalar multiplication see proposition 3.3). Two topological modules M and N overℝare (topologically) 3.5.

Q ⊂ P is balanced. A topological monomorphism from M to N is an injective topological homomorphism. Proof A topological isomorphism from M to N is a bijective topological homomorphism. Necessity part A topological automorphism of M is a topological isomorphism from m into itself. Suppose that M is a topological module then we aim to show that the filter of neighbourhoods of the origin ℱ satisfies the 3.3. Proposition properties 1, 2, 3,4,5. Let P∈ ℱ. 1) Obvious, since every set P∈ ℱ is a neighbourhood of the Every modules M overℝ endowed with the discrete origin o. topology is not a topological module. Unless M = {0}. 2) Since by the definition of topological modules the addition (a, b) → a+b is a continuous mapping, the Proof: preimage of P under this map must be a neighbourhood Assume by a contradiction that it is a topological moduleand of (o, o) ∈ M×M. Therefore, it must contain a rectangular ′ ′ 1 neighbourhood G×퐺 where G, 퐺 ∈ ℱ. Taking Q = take 0≠ m ∈ M. The sequence 훼 = in ℝ converges to 0 in 푛 푛 G∩ 퐺′ we get the conclusion, i.e. Q + Q ⊂ P. the Euclidean topology. 3) By proposition 3.4, fixed an arbitrary 0 ≠ µ ∈ ℝ, the map a → 휇−1 a of M into itself is continuous. Therefore, the Therefore, since the scalar multiplication is continuous, pre image of any neighbourhood P of the origin must be 훼푛 푥 → 0, i.e. for any neighbourhood U of 0 in M there also such a neighbourhood. This preimage is clearly µP, exists m ∈ ℕ such that 훼푛 푥 ∈U for all n ≥ m. hence µP ∈ ℱ. 4) Suppose by contradiction that P is not absorbing. Then In particular, we can take U = {0} since it is itself open in 1 there exists y ∈ M such that ∀ n∈ ℕ we have that 푦 ∉ P. the discrete topology. Hence, 훼 푥 = 0, which implies that 푛 푚 1 m = 0 and so a contradiction. This contradicts the convergence of 푦 → 0 as n → ∞ 푛 (because P ∈ ℱ must contain infinitely many terms of the 3.4. Proposition 1 sequence ( 푦) ). 푛 n∈ℕ Given a topological modules M we have that: 5) Since by the definition of topological modules the scalar multiplication ℝ ×M→M, (µ, a) → µa is continuous, the 1) For any 푚0 ∈ M, the mapping m → m +푚0 is a homeomorphism of M onto itself. preimage of P under this map must be a neighbourhood 2) For any 0 ≠ µ ∈ ℝ, the mapping m → µm is a topological H×G where H is a neighbourhood of (0, o) ∈ ℝ ×M. automorphism of M. Therefore, it contains a rectangular neighbuorhood H×G where H is a neighbourhood of 0 in the Euclidean Proof: topology on ℝ and G∈ ℱ. on the other hand, there exists Both mappings are continuous by the very definition of ρ>0 such that 퐵 0 = {µ∈ ℝ : |µ| ≤ ρ} ⊆ H. Thus topological modules. Moreover, they are bijections by the 퐵 0 ×G is contained in the preimage of P under the module’s axioms and their inverses m → m -푚0 and m scalar multiplication, i.e. µG ⊂ P for all µ∈ ℝ with |µ| ≤ 1 → m is also continuous. Note that the second map is also ρ. Hence, the set Q = ∪|µ| ≤ ρ µG ⊂ P. Now Q ∈ ℱ since 휇 each µG ∈ ℱ by 3 and v is clearly balanced ( since for linear so it is a topological automorphism. any a ∈ Q there exists µ∈ ℝ with |µ| ≤ ρ s.t. a ∈ 휇G and 3.5 Example therefore for any |α| ≤ 1 we get αa ∈ αµG ⊂ Q because |αµ| ≤ ρ ).
