Maximal equivariant compactifications
Abstract
Let be a locally compact group. Then for every -space the maximal -proximity can be characterized by the maximal topological proximity as follows: Here, is the maximal -compactification of (which is an embedding for locally compact ), is a neighborhood of and means that the closures of and do not meet in . Note that the local compactness of is essential. This theorem comes as a corollary of a general result about maximal -uniform -compactifications for a useful wide class of uniform structures on -spaces for not necessarily locally compact groups . It helps, in particular, to derive the following result. Let be the Urysohn sphere and is its isometry group with the pointwise topology. Then for every pair of subsets in , we have More generally, the same is true for any -categorical metric -structure , where is its automorphism group.
