Abstract

A topological group XX is called connected if the only subsets which are both open and closed are the whole space XX and the null set \emptyset. A subset of a topological group is connected if the subspace is connected. We say that a subset AA of XX is GG-sequentially connected if the only subsets of AA which are both GG-sequentially open and GG-sequentially closed, with respect to the relative GG-sequentially open and GG-sequentially closed subsets of AA, are open and closed subsets of AA are AA and the null set, \emptyset. We investigate the impact of changing the definition of convergence of sequences on the structure of sequential connectedness of subsets of XX via sequential closure of sets in the sense of GG-sequential closure. Sequential connectedness for topological groups is a special case of this generalization when G = lim.
