We present new results regarding automatic continuity, unifying some diagonalization concepts that have been developed over the years. For example, any homomorphism from a completely metrizable topological group to Thompson's group $F$ has…

Inspired by an analogous result of Arnautov about isomorphisms, we prove that all continuous surjective homomorphisms of topological groups f:G-->H can be obtained as restrictions of open continuous surjective homomorphisms f':G'-->H, where…

The class, denoted by $\mathscr{S}$, of totally disconnected locally compact groups which are non-discrete, compactly generated, and topologically simple contains many compelling examples. In recent years, a general theory for these groups,…

Let {\phi} be an automorphism on a connected Lie group G. Through several G-subgroups associated to the dynamics of {\phi} we analyze their topological entropy. Assume that G belongs to the class of finite semisimple center Lie groups which…

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…

A topological group is minimal if it does not admit a strictly coarser Hausdorff group topology. We provide a sufficient and necessary condition for the minimality of the semidirect product $G\leftthreetimes P,$ where $G$ is a compact…

This paper has three main goals. First, we study fixed subgroups of automorphisms of right-angled Artin and Coxeter groups. If $\varphi$ is an untwisted automorphism of a RAAG, or an arbitrary automorphism of a RACG, we prove that ${\rm…

To any automorphism, $\alpha$, of a totally disconnected, locally compact group, $G$, there is associated a compact, $\alpha$-stable subgroup of $G$, here called the \emph{nub} of $\alpha$, on which the action of $\alpha$ is topologically…

We show that the group of type-preserving automorphisms of any irreducible semi-regular thick right-angled building is abstractly simple. When the building is locally finite, this gives a large family of compactly generated (abstractly)…

The concept of gyrogroups is a generalization of groups which do not explicitly have associativity. Recently, Atiponrat extended the idea of topological (paratopological) groups to topological (paratopological) gyrogroups. In this paper, we…

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…

Let G be a Lie group over a local field of positive characteristic which admits a contractive automorphism f (i.e., the forward iterates f^n(x) of each group element x converge to the neutral element 1). We show that then G is a torsion…

In this paper, we prove that: (1) Let $f:G\rightarrow H$ be a continuous $d$-open surjective homomorphism; if $G$ is an $\mathbb{R}$-factorizabile paratopological group, then so is $H$. Peng and Zhang's result \cite[Theorem 1.7]{PZ} is…

A homomorphism from a completely metrizable topological group into a free product of groups whose image is not contained in a factor of the free product is shown to be continuous with respect to the discrete topology on the range. In…

For any countable torsion subgroup $H$ of an unbounded Abelian group $G$ there is a complete Hausdorff group topology $\tau$ such that $H$ is the von Neumann radical of $(G,\tau)$. In particular, any unbounded torsion countable Abelian…
