A group $G$ is invariably generated if there exists a subset $S \subseteq G$ such that, for every choice $g_s \in G$ for $s \in S$, the group $G$ is generated by $\{ s^{g_s} \mid s \in S \}$. In [GGJ16] Gelander, Golan and Juschenko showed…

A class of almost paratopological groups is introduced, which (1) contains paratopological groups and Hausdorff quasitopological groups; (2) is closed under products; (3) subgroups. Almost paratopological $T_1$ groups $G$ are characterized…

We prove that every free group G with infinitely many generators admits a Hausdorff group topology T with the following property: for every T-open neighbourhood U of the identity of G, each element g in G can be represented as a product…

The main objects of study in this article are pairs $(G, \mathcal{H})$ where $G$ is a topological group with a compact open subgroup, and $\mathcal{H}$ is a finite collection of open subgroups. We develop geometric techniques to study the…

We consider the oriented graph whose vertices are isomorphism classes of finitely generated groups, with an edge from G to H if, for some generating set T in H and some sequence of generating sets S_i in G, the marked balls of radius i in…

In this paper, we firstly construct a Hausdorff non-submetrizable paratopological group $G$ in which every point is a $G_{\delta}$-set, which gives a negative answer to Arhangel'ski\v{\i}\ and Tkachenko's question [Topological Groups and…

For any $C\in[0,\infty]$ a compact group automorphism $T:X\to X$ is constructed with the property that $$ \frac{1}{n}\log|\{x\in X\mid T^n(x)=x\}|\longrightarrow C. $$ This may be interpreted as a combinatorial analogue of the (still open)…

Let G be an abelian topological group. The symbol \hat{G} denotes the group of all continuous characters \chi : G --> T endowed with the compact open topology. A subset E of G is said to be qc-dense in G provided that \chi(E) \subseteq…

The notion of locally quasi-convex abelian group, introduce by Vilenkin, is extended to maximally almost-periodic non-necessarily abelian groups. For that purpose, we look at certain bornologies that can be defined on the set…

Let $\Aut(G)$ denote the group of (bi-)continuous automorphisms %and $\Out(G)$ the outer automorphism group of a non-Archimedean Polish group~$G$. We show that for any such $G$ with an invariant countable basis of open subgroups, the group…

For any topological group $G$ the dual object $\hat G$ is defined as the set of equivalence classes of irreducible unitary representations of $G$ equipped with the Fell topology. If $G$ is compact, $\hat G$ is discrete, and we investigate…

We prove that there exists a countable metrizable topological group $G$ such that every countable metrizable group is isomorphic to a quotient of $G$. The completion $H$ of $G$ is a Polish group such that every Polish group is isomorphic to…

We introduce two minimality properties of subgroups in topological groups. A subgroup $H$ is a key subgroup (co-key subgroup) of a topological group $G$ if there is no strictly coarser Hausdorff group topology on $G$ which induces on $H$…

We discuss the finiteness of the topological entropy of continuous endomorphims for some classes of locally compact groups. Firstly, we focus on the abelian case, imposing the condition of being compactly generated, and note an interesting…

We prove that a large class of metrizable group topologies for subgroups of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and the completions of the subgroups are locally isometric to, respectively, metrizable group topologies for $\mathbb{Z}$ and their completions,…

We prove that if $H$ is a topological group such that all closed subgroups of $H$ are separable, then the product $G\times H$ has the same property for every separable compact group $G$. Let $c$ be the cardinality of the continuum. Assuming…

We further investigate the weak topology generated by the irreducible unitary representations of a group $G$. A deep result due to Ernest \cite{Ernest1971} and Hughes \cite{Hughes1973} asserts that every weakly compact subset of a locally…

Inspired by an analogous result of Arnautov about isomorphisms, we prove that all continuous surjective homomorphisms of topological groups f:G-->H can be obtained as restrictions of open continuous surjective homomorphisms f':G'-->H, where…

A Hausdorff topological group G is minimal if every continuous isomorphism f : G --> H between G and a Hausdorff topological group H is open. Clearly, every compact Hausdorff group is minimal. It is well known that every infinite compact…

A finitely generated group $G$ is said to be condensed if its isomorphism class in the space of finitely generated marked groups has no isolated points. We prove that every product variety $\mathcal{UV}$, where $\mathcal{U}$ (respectively,…
