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…

Classical theorems from the early 20th century state that any Haar measurable homomorphism between locally compact groups is continuous. In particular, any Lebesgue-measurable homomorphism $\phi:\mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ is of the form…

To every dynamical system $(X,\varphi)$ over a totally disconnected compact space, we associate a left-orderable group $T(\varphi)$. It is defined as a group of homeomorphisms of the suspension of $(X,\varphi)$ which preserve every orbit of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite simplicial graph with at least two vertices, and let $G(\Gamma)$ be the associated right-angled Artin group. We describe a locally compact group $\mathcal U$ containing $G(\Gamma)$ as a cocompact lattice. If…

We show that generic automorphisms of stable groups are supertight in a strong sense. In particular, we obtain the existence of supertight automorphisms. We also answer a question concerning the relationship between supertight automorphisms…

Let $G$ be a topological group, let $\phi$ be a continuous endomorphism of $G$ and let $H$ be a closed $\phi$-invariant subgroup of $G$. We study whether the topological entropy is an additive invariant, that is,…

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…

Let M be a compact manifold, possibly with boundary. We show that the group of homeomorphisms of M has the automatic continuity property: any homomorphism from Homeo(M) to any separable group is necessarily continuous. This answers a…

We present a contribution to the structure theory of locally compact groups. The emphasis is on compactly generated locally compact groups which admit no infinite discrete quotient. It is shown that such a group possesses a characteristic…

The concept of gyrogroups, with a weaker algebraic structure without associative law, was introduced under the background of $c$-ball of relativistically admissible velocities with Einstein velocity addition. A topological gyrogroup is just…

We extend the classical theory of homotopical $\Sigma$-sets $\Sigma^n$ developed by Bieri, Neumann, Renz and Strebel for abstract groups, to $\Sigma$-sets $\Sigma_{\mathrm{top}}^n$ for locally compact Hausdorff groups. Given such a group…

We show that any connected locally compact group which admits an expansive automorphism is nilpotent. We also show that for any locally compact group $G$, $\alpha\in {\rm Aut}(G)$ is expansive if and only if for any $\alpha$-invariant…

It is well-known that a homomorphism p between topological groups K, G is a covering homomorphism if and only if p is an open epimorphism with discrete kernel. In this paper we generalize this fact, in precisely, we show that for a…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system with Davis complex $\Sigma$. The polyhedral automorphism group $G$ of $\Sigma$ is a locally compact group under the compact-open topology. If $G$ is a discrete group (as characterised by Haglund--Paulin),…
