We introduce and study Polish topologies on various spaces of countable enumerated groups, where an enumerated group is simply a group whose underlying set is the set of natural numbers. Using elementary tools and well known examples from…

The existence of an infinite simple boundedly generated 2-generated group and the existence of a boundedly simple 2-generated group containing a free non-cyclic subgroup are proved.

We prove that no uncountable Polish group can admit a system of generators whose associated length function satisfies the following conditions: (i) if $0 < k < \omega$, then $lg(x) \leq lg(x^k)$; (ii) if $lg(y) < k < \omega$ and $x^k = y$,…

A group $G$ is called hereditarily non-topologizable if, for every $H\le G$, no quotient of $H$ admits a non-discrete Hausdorff topology. We construct first examples of infinite hereditarily non-topologizable groups. This allows us to prove…

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…

It is a well-known open problem since the 1970s whether a finitely generated perfect group can be normally generated by a single element or not. We prove that the topological version of this problem has an affirmative answer as long as we…

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…

A display of a topological group G on a Banach space X is a topological isomorphism of G with the isometry group Isom(X,||.||) for some equivalent norm ||.|| on X, where the latter group is equipped with the strong operator topology.…

In this note for a topological group $G$, we introduce a bounded subset of $G$ and we find some relationships of this definition with other topological properties of $G$.

We show that all non-trivial continuous endomorphisms of the circle group are topologically mixing. We also show that there exists a large infinite class of continuous endomorphisms of any n-dimensional torus group which are topologically…

It is folklore that a power bounded operator on a sequentially complete locally convex space generates a uniformly continuous $C_0$-semigroup which is given by the corresponding power series representation. Recently, Doma\'nski asked if in…

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…

This paper is mainly motivated by the analysis of the so-called Bounded Generation property (BG) of linear groups (in characteristic $0$), which is known to admit far-reaching group-theoretic implications. We achieve complete answers to…

We prove that there exists a finitely generated group that satisfies a group law with probability 1 but does not satisfy any group law. More precisely, we construct a finitely generated group G in which the probability that a random element…

We introduce the concept of an $\mathrm{L}^{1}$ full group associated with a measure-preserving action of a Polish normed group on a standard probability space. These groups carry a natural Polish group topology induced by an $\mathrm{L}^1$…
