An uncountable $\aleph_1$-free group cannot admit a Polish group topology but an uncountable $\aleph_1$-free abelian group can, as witnessed, for example, by the Baer-Specker group $\mathbb{Z}^\omega$; more strongly, $\mathbb{Z}^\omega$ is…
We prove that every Polish group with more than two elements admits a non-trivial topological group automorphism. As a consequence, a hypothetical uniquely homogeneous Polish space with more than two points cannot be a semitopological…
In this paper, we give the first examples of connected Polish groups that have ample generics, answering a question of Kechris and Rosendal. We show that any Polish group with ample generics embeds into a connected Polish group with ample…
In this article, motivated by a problem asked by Allison and Panagiotopoulos, we study a problem concerning the complexity of group extensions within a hierarchy (denoted by $\alpha$-CLI and L-$\alpha$-CLI) on the class of non-archimedean…
We show that every non-Archimedean Polish group $P$ is the outer automorphism group of a countable discrete group $G_P$. Moreover, our construction provides a Borel map $f$ from the Effros space of closed subgroups of the permutation group…
This paper presents a study of generic elements in full isometry groups of Polish ultrametric spaces. We obtain a complete characterization of Polish ultrametric spaces X whose isometry group Iso(X) contains an open subgroup H with ample…
In this article, we introduce a hierarchy on the class of non-archimedean Polish groups that admit a compatible complete left-invariant metric. We denote this hierarchy by $\alpha$-CLI and L-$\alpha$-CLI where $\alpha$ is a countable…
We show that connected separable locally compact groups are infinitesimally finitely generated, meaning that there is an integer $n$ such that every neighborhood of the identity contains $n$ elements generating a dense subgroup. We…
The group $\mathop{\rm PL}_+(I)$ of increasing piecewise linear self-homeomorphisms of the interval $I=[0,1]$ may not be assigned a topology in such a way that it becomes a Polish group. The same statement holds for the groups $\mathop{\rm…
We investigate some properties of topological groups related to disconnectedness or Archimedeanness. We prove or disprove the preservation of those under operations as subgroups, quotients, products, etc. Characterizations of…
We prove that the automorphism group of the Urysohn diversity is a universal Polish group. Furthermore we show that the automorphism group of the rational Urysohn diversity has ample generics, a dense conjugacy class and that it embeds…
In this paper, we prove a result on nonmeasurable subgroups in commutative Polish groups with respect to more generalized structures than sigma-finite measures.
For any abelian Polish sigma-compact group H there exist a sigma-ideal Z over N and a Borel Z-approximate homomorphism f : H --> H^N which is not Z-approximable by a continuous true homomorphism g : H --> H^N.
Let $M=I$ or $M=\mathbb{S}^1$ and let $k\geq 1$. We exhibit a new infinite class of Polish groups by showing that each group $\mathop{\rm Diff}_+^{k+AC}(M)$, consisting of those $C^k$ diffeomorphisms whose $k$-th derivative is absolutely…
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…
We consider the isometry group of the infinite dimensional separable hyperbolic space with its Polish topology. This topology is given by the pointwise convergence. For non-locally compact Polish groups, some striking phenomena like…
We give strong necessary conditions on the admissibility of a Polish group topology for an arbitrary graph product of groups $G(\Gamma, G_a)$, and use them to give a characterization modulo a finite set of nodes. As a corollary, we give a…
We define and study the notion of \emph{ample metric generics} for a Polish topological group, which is a weakening of the notion of ample generics introduced by Kechris and Rosendal in \cite{Kechris-Rosendal:Turbulence}. Our work is based…
We extend some results of Carderi and Le Ma\^itre on full groups in the probability context to the infinite measure one: there exists at most one Polish group topology (refining the weak topology and coarser than the uniform topology) on an…
It is proved that any countable index, universally measurable subgroup of a Polish group is open. By consequence, any universally measurable homomorphism from a Polish group into the infinite symmetric group $S_\infty$ is continuous. It is…
