A topological semigroup is monothetic provided it contains a dense cyclic subsemigroup. The Koch problem asks whether every locally compact monothetic monoid is compact. This problem was opened for more than sixty years, till in 2018…

Semitopological interassociates $\mathscr{C}_{m,n}$ of the bicyclic semigroup $\mathscr{C}(p,q)$ are studied. In particular, we show that for arbitrary non-negative integers $m$, $n$ and every Hausdorff topology $\tau$ on…

In this paper we consider the questions of which topological semigroups embed topologically into the full transformation monoid $\mathbb{N} ^ \mathbb{N}$ or the symmetric inverse monoid $I_{\mathbb{N}}$ with their respective canonical…

We give the sufficient condition when every left-continuous (right-continuous) Hausdorff topology on a semigroup $S$ is discrete. We construct a submonoid $\mathscr{C}_{+}(a,b)$ (resp., $\mathscr{C}_{-}(a,b)$) of the bicyclic monoid which…

We describe the structure of ($0$-)simple inverse Hausdorff semitopological $\omega$-semigroups with compact maximal subgroups. In particular, we show that if $S$ is a simple inverse Hausdorff semitopological $\omega$-semigroup with compact…

We study algebraic properties on a group G such that if the discrete group G has these properties then every locally compact shift continuous topology on G with adjoined zero is either compact, or discrete. We introduce electorally flexible…

To every directed graph $E$ one can associate a \emph{graph inverse semigroup} $G(E)$, where elements roughly correspond to possible paths in $E$. These semigroups generalize polycylic monoids, and they arise in the study of Leavitt path…

We classify all Polish semigroup topologies on the symmetric inverse monoid on the natural numbers. This result answers a question of Elliott et al. There are countably infinitely many such topologies. Under containment, these Polish…

We study topological properties of the symmetric inverse topological semigroup of finite transformations $\mathscr{I}_\lambda^n$ of the rank $\leqslant n$. We show that the topological inverse semigroup $\mathscr{I}_\lambda^n$ is…

This (quasi-)survey addresses the quasi-isometry classification of locally compact groups, with an emphasis on amenable hyperbolic locally compact groups. This encompasses the problem of quasi-isometry classification of homogeneous…

In this paper we give conditions under which a topological semigroup can be embedded algebraically and topologically into a compact topological group. We prove that every feebly compact regular first countable cancellative commutative…

A Hausdorff topology $\tau$ on the bicyclic monoid with adjoined zero $\mathcal{C}^0$ is called {\em weak} if it is contained in the coarsest inverse semigroup topology on $\mathcal{C}^0$. We show that the lattice $\mathcal{W}$ of all weak…

We investigate semigroup topologies on the full transformation monoid T(X) of an infinite set X. We show that the standard pointwise topology is the weakest Hausdorff semigroup topology on T(X), show that the pointwise topology is the…

We study algebraic properties of the Brandt $\lambda^0$-extensions of monoids with zero and non-trivial homomorphisms between the Brandt $\lambda^0$-extensions of monoids with zero. We introduce finite, compact topological Brandt…

In the paper we introduce a notion of the Bruck-Reilly $\lambda$-polycyclic extension of a monoid $S$ with a homomorphism $\theta$ which is an analogue of the Bruck-Reilly extension of a monoid $S$. We describe idempotens of the semigroup…

We study when a piecewise full group (a.k.a. topological full group) of homeomorphisms of the Cantor space $X$ can be given a non-discrete totally disconnected locally compact (t.d.l.c.) topology and give a criterion for the alternating…

In this paper we study the semigroup $\mathscr{I}^{\infty}_\lambda$ of injective partial selfmaps almost everywhere the identity of a set of infinite cardinality $\lambda$. We describe the Green relations on $\mathscr{I}^{\infty}_\lambda$,…

For a topological monoid S the dual inverse monoid is the topological monoid of all identity preserving homomorphisms from S to the circle with attached zero. A topological monoid S is defined to be reflexive if the canonical homomorphism…

We introduce the inverse monoid of inner partial automorphisms of a semigroup -- a tool that associates to every semigroup an inverse semigroup. When the semigroup is a group, this inverse semigroup is isomorphic to the group of inner…

We show that the topological full group of a Hausdorff ample groupoid with compact unit space coincides with the group of homotopy classes of invertible isometries in pseudofunction algebras associated with the groupoid. Moreover, if the…
