We show that if a subsemigroup $S$ of the bicyclic monoid ${\mathscr{C}}(p,q)$ contains infinitely many idempotents then $S$ admits only the discrete Hausdorff shift-continuous topology. Also we proof that every right-continuous…

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 a semitopological $\alpha$-bicyclic monoid $\mathcal{B}_{\alpha}$ and prove that it is algebraically isomorphic to a semigroup of all order isomorphisms between the principal upper sets of the ordinal…

We show that for any connected smooth manifold $M$ of dimension different from $3$ the restriction of the compact-open topology to the diffeomorphism group of $M$ is minimal, i.e. the group does not admit a strictly coarser Hausdorff group…

We study the closures of subgroups, semilattices and different kinds of semigroup extensions in semitopological inverse semigroups with continuous inversion. In particularly we show that a topological group $G$ is $H$-closed in the class of…

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…

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…

Let $n$ be any positive integer and $\mathscr{I\!P\!F}(\mathbb{N}^n)$ be the semigroup of all order isomorphisms between principal filters of the $n$-th power of the set of positive integers $\mathbb{N}$ with the product order. We prove…

Two non-discrete Hausdorff group topologies $\tau, \delta$ on a group $G$ are called {\it transversal} if the least upper bound $\tau\vee \delta$ of $\tau$ and $\delta$ is the discrete topology. In this paper, we discuss the existence of…

In the paper we investigate topological properties of a topological Brandt $\lambda^0$-extension $B^0_{\lambda}(S)$ of a semitopological monoid $S$ with zero. In particular we prove that for every Tychonoff pseudocompact (resp., Hausdorff…

We study locally compact group topologies on semisimple Lie groups. We show that the Lie group topology on such a group $S$ is very rigid: every 'abstract' isomorphism between $S$ and a locally compact and $\sigma$-compact group $\Gamma$ is…

We investigate closed subsets (subsemigroups, resp.) of compact-like topological spaces (semigroups, resp.). We prove that each Hausdorff topological space can be embedded as a closed subspace into an H-closed topological space. However,…

In this paper we search for conditions on a countably compact (pseudo-compact) topological semigroup under which: (i) each maximal subgroup $H(e)$ in $S$ is a (closed) topological subgroup in $S$; (ii) the Clifford part $H(S)$(i.e. the…

An action of a topological semigroup S on X is compactifiable if this action is a restriction of a jointly continuous action of S on a Hausdorff compact space Y. A topological semigroup S is compactifiable if the left action of S on itself…

In this paper we investigate locally compact semitopological graph inverse semigroups. Our main result is the following: if a directed graph $E$ is strongly connected and contains a finite amount of vertices then a locally compact…

For a given bi-continuous semigroup T on a Banach space X we define its adjoint on an appropriate closed subspace X^o of the norm dual X'. Under some abstract conditions this adjoint semigroup is again bi-continuous with respect to the weak…

In \cite{Kramer11} Kramer proves for a large class of semisimple Lie groups that they admit just one locally compact $\sigma$-compact Hausdorff topology compatible with the group operations. We present two different methods of generalising…

This paper investigates the interplay between algebraic structure, topology, and differentiability in Clifford semigroups. The study is developed along three main themes. First, in the compact Hausdorff setting, we provide an explicit…

In this paper we develop the homological version of $\Sigma$-theory for locally compact Hausdorff groups, leaving the homotopical version for another paper. Both versions are connected by a Hurewicz-like theorem. They can be thought of as…

We show that the homeomorphism group of a surface without boundary does not admit a Hausdorff group topology strictly coarser than the compact-open topology. In combination with known automatic continuity results, this implies that the…
