  • Dense Subgroups of Compact Groups
    Open Problems in Topology II – Edited by E. Pearl © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved Dense subgroups of compact groups W. W. Comfort 1. Introduction The symbol G here denotes the class of all infinite groups, and TG denotes the class of all infinite topological groups which satisfy the T0 separation prop- erty. Each element of TG is, then, a Tychonoff space (i.e., a completely regular, Hausdorff space) [50, 8.4]. We say that G = (G, T ) ∈ TG is totally bounded (some authors prefer the expression pre-compact) if for every U ∈ T \ {∅} there is a finite set F ⊆ G such that G = FU. Our point of departure is the following portion of Weil’s Theorem [77]: Every totally bounded G ∈ TG embeds as a dense topological subgroup of a compact group G; this is unique in the sense that for every compact group Ge containing G densely there is a homeomorphism-and- isomorphism ψ : G Ge fixing G pointwise. As usual, a space is ω-bounded if each of its countable subsets has compact closure. For G = (G, T ) ∈ TG we write G ∈ C [resp., G ∈ Ω; G ∈ CC; G ∈ P; G ∈ TB] if (G, T ) is compact [resp., ω-bounded; countably compact; pseudocompact; totally bounded]. And for X ∈ {C, Ω, CC, P, TB} and G ∈ G we write G ∈ X0 if G admits a group topology T such that (G, T ) ∈ X. The class-theoretic inclusions C ⊆ Ω ⊆ CC ⊆ P ⊆ TB ⊆ TG and C0 ⊆ Ω0 ⊆ CC0 ⊆ P0 ⊆ TB0 ⊆ TG0 = G are easily established. (For P ⊆ TB, see [31].

This paper is a slightly expanded version of a plenary ad- dresss at the 2002 Summer Topology Conference in Auckland, New Zealand. The aim in this paper is not to survey the vast literature on compact groups, or even the topological group structure of compact groups which is described in considerable detail in the 1998 book \The Structure of Compact Groups: A Primer for the Student { A Handbook for the Expert" by Karl Heinrich Hofmann and this author. Rather, the much more modest purpose in this article is to focus on point-set topology and, in a gentle fashion, describe the topological structure of compact groups, most of which can be extracted or derived from that large book. 1. Fundamental Facts Portions of the material presented here can be found in various papers and books. The book ([3],[4]) by Karl Heinrich Hofmann and the author is a comfortable reference. However, this is not meant to imply that all the results in [3] were first proved by Hofmann and/or Morris, although often the presentation and approach in the book are new. Definition 1.1. Let G be a group with a topology τ. Then G is said to be a topological group if the maps G G given by g g 1 and G G G ! 7! − × ! given by (g1; g2) g1:g2 are continuous.

  • TOPOLOGICAL DYNAMICS 1. Introduction Definition 1.1. A
    TOPOLOGICAL DYNAMICS STEFAN GESCHKE 1. Introduction Definition 1.1. A topological semi-group is a topological space S with an associative continuous binary operation ·. A topological semi-group (S; ·) is a topological group if (S; ·) is a group and taking inverses is continuous. Now let S be a topological semi-group and X a topological space. Given a map ' : S ×X ! X, we write sx for '(s; x). ' is a continuous semi-group action if it is continuous and for all s; t 2 S we have s(tx) = (st)x. A dynamical system is a topological semi-group S together with a compact space X and a continuous semi-group action of S on X. X is the phase space of the dynamical system. Sometimes we say that X together with the S-action is an S-flow. Exercise 1.2. Let S be a topological semi-group acting continuously on a compact space X. Show that for all s 2 S the map fs : X ! X; x 7! sx is continuous. Exercise 1.3. Let G be a topological group acting continuously on a compact space X. Show that for all g 2 G the map fg : X ! X; x 7! gx is a homeomorphism. Example 1.4. Let X be a compact space and let f : X ! X be a continuous map. We define a semi-group action of (N; +) on X by letting nx = f n(x) for each n 2 N. This action is continuous with respect to the discrete topology on N. If f : X ! X is a homeomorphism, we can define nx = f n(x) for all nZ and obtain a group action of (Z; +) on X.

  • A Product of Compact Normal Spaces Is Normal
    Poorly Separated Infinite Normal Products N. Noble* Abstract From the literature: a product of compact normal spaces is normal; the product of a countably infinite collection of non-trivial spaces is normal if and only if it is countably paracompact and each of its finite sub-products is normal; if all powers of a space X are normal then X is compact – provided in each case that the spaces involved are T1. Here I examine the situation for infinite products not required to be T1 (or regular), extending or generalizing each of these facts. In addition, I prove some related results, give a number of examples, explore some alternative proofs, and close with some speculation regarding potential applications of these findings to category theory and lattice theory. I plan to consider the normality of poorly separated finite products in a companion paper currently in preparation. Summary of principal results Calling a space vacuously normal if it does not contain a pair of nonempty disjoint closed subsets, and using the notation Πα SXα = XS, I show: • A product of vacuously normal spaces is vacuously normal. • A product of compact normal spaces is compact normal. • All powers of X are normal if and only if X is vacuously normal or compact normal. • If X is vacuously normal, Y normal, and the projection from X x Y to Y is closed, then X x Y is normal; the converse holds for Y a T1 space, but not in general. • A countable product with no factor vacuously normal is normal if and only if it is countably paracompact and each of its finite sub-products is normal.

  • AN INJECTIVE CHARACTERIZATION OF' PEANO SPACES Burkhard
    Topology and its Applications 11 (1980) 37-46 @ North-Holland Publishing Company AN INJECTIVE CHARACTERIZATION OF’ PEANO SPACES Burkhard HOFFMANN Mathematical Institute, Oxford, England Received 20 November 1978 Revised 26 April 1979 It is shown that a continuous map defined on a closed zero-dimensional sabspace S of a compact space 7’ into a Peano space X can be continuously extended over T or, equivalently, X is an AE(0, OO),and this property precisely characterizesPeano spaces within the class of compact metric spaces. Surjectively, a compact AE(0, ~a)of arbitraryweight is proved to be the continuous image of a Tychonoff cube by a map satisfying the zero-dimensional lifting property. AMS (MOS) Subj. Class. (1970): Primary 54F25,54ClO Peano space zero-dimensional lifting propel :y AE(m, n) 0. Introduction Locally connected, connected metric spaces or Peano spaces were characterized by Hahn and Mazurkiewicz in their celebrated theorem as the continuous images of the unit interval. Although considerable effort has been made in various directions to generalize their theorem to non-met&able spaces (see e.g. [ 111, [ 121 and their references), no satisfactnry solution has yet been fcund. Combining the standard technique of the proof of the Hahn-Mazurkiewicz theorem with the concept of zero-dimensional lifting property or z.d.1.p. we prove that, in the category of compact spaces and continuous maps, Peano spaces are precisely the metrizable absolute extensors for zero- to infinite-dimensional spaces (Theorem 2.2). This result furnishes us with an injective characterization of Peano spaces which seems to be suitable for a generalization to compact spaces of uncountable weight.

  • The Universal Minimal Space for Groups of Homeomorphisms of H
    THE UNIVERSAL MINIMAL SPACE FOR GROUPS OF HOMEOMORPHISMS OF H-HOMOGENEOUS SPACES ELI GLASNER AND YONATAN GUTMAN To Anatoliy Stepin with great respect. Abstract. Let X be a h-homogeneous zero-dimensional compact Hausdorff space, i.e. X is a Stone dual of a homogeneous Boolean algebra. It is shown that the universal minimal space M(G) of the topological group G = Homeo(X), is the space of maximal chains on X introduced in [Usp00]. If X is metrizable then clearly X is homeomorphic to the Cantor set and the result was already known (see [GW03]). However many new examples arise for non-metrizable spaces. These include, among others, the generalized Cantor sets X = {0, 1}κ for non-countable cardinals κ, and the corona or remainder of ω, X = βω \ ω, where βω denotes the Stone-Cˇech compactification of the natural numbers. 1. Introduction The existence and uniqueness of a universal minimal G dynamical system, corre- sponding to a topological group G, is due to Ellis (see [Ell69], for a new short proof see [GL11]). He also showed that for a discrete infinite G this space is never metrizable, arXiv:1106.0121v2 [math.DS] 13 Oct 2011 and the latter statement was generalized to the locally compact non-compact case by Kechris, Pestov and Todorcevic in the appendix to their paper [KPT05]. For Polish groups this is no longer the case and we have such groups with M(G) being trivial (groups with the fixed point property or extremely amenable groups) and groups with 1 1 metrizable, easy to compute M(G), like M(G)= S for the group G = Homeo+(S ) 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification.

  • A Note on the $ Luc-$ Compactification of Locally Compact Groups
    A NOTE ON THE LUC-COMPACTIFICATION OF LOCALLY COMPACT GROUPS SAFOURA JAFAR-ZADEH Abstract. Let G be a locally compact non-compact topological group. We show that Gluc (G∗) is an F-space if and only if G is a discrete group. 1. Introduction Let G be a Hausdorff locally compact group and Cb(G) denote the Banach space of bounded continuous functions on G with the uniform norm. An element f in Cb(G) is called left uniformly continuous if g 7→ lgf, where lgf(x)= f(gx) is a continuous map from G to Cb(G). Let LUC(G) denote the Banach space of left uniformly continuous functions with the uniform norm. It can be seen that Cc(G) the space of continuous compactly supported functions on G is a subspace of LUC(G). The dual space of LUC(G), LUC(G)∗, with the following Arens-type product forms a Banach algebra: < m.n, f >=< m, nf > and < nf, g >=< n,lg(f) >, where m, n ∈ LUC(G)∗, f ∈ LUC(G) and g ∈ G. In fact this product is an extension to LUC(G)∗ of the convolution product on M(G). The luc-compactification of a locally compact group G, denoted by Gluc can be regarded as a generalization to locally compact groups, of the familiar Stone-Cech compactification for discrete groups. As a topological space, Gluc is the Gelfand spectrum of the unital commutative C∗−algebra of left uniformly continuous func- tions on G, i.e., LUC(G) = C(Gluc). The restriction of the product on LUC(G)∗ arXiv:1401.4775v1 [math.FA] 20 Jan 2014 to the subset Gluc of LUC(G)∗ turns Gluc into a semigroup.
