Ultracompanions of subsets of a group

Abstract

Let GG be a group, βG\beta G is the Stone-Cˇ\check{C}ech compactification of βG\beta G endowed with the structure of a right topological semigroup, G=βGGG^*=\beta G\setminus G. Given any subset AA of GG and pGp\in G^*, we define the pp-companion \vtp(A)=AGp\vt_p(A)=A^*\cap Gp of AA, and characterize the subsets with finite and discrete ultracompanions.
