The note contains a few results related to separation axioms and automatic continuity of operations in compact-like semitopological groups. In particular, is presented a semiregular semitopological group $G$ which is not $T_3$. We show that…

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…

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…

Topologies $\tau, \sigma$ on a set $X$ are called $\pi$-compatible if $\tau$ is a $\pi$-network for $\sigma$, and vice versa. If topologies $\tau, \sigma$ on a set $X$ are $\pi$-compatible then the families of nowhere dense sets (resp.…

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 propose a sequential topology on the space of sub-$\sigma$-algebras of a separable probability space $(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mathbb{P})$ by linking conditional expectations on $L^{2}$ along sequences of sub-$\sigma$-algebras. The varying…

Topologies $\tau , \sigma \in \mathop{{\mathrm{Top}}}\nolimits _X$ are bijectively related, in notation $\tau \sim \sigma$, if there are continuous bijections $f: (X, \tau )\rightarrow (X, \sigma )$ and $g: (X, \sigma)\rightarrow (X,…

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…

If a discrete subset S of a topological group G with the identity 1 generates a dense subgroup of G and S \cup {1} is closed in G, then S is called a suitable set for G. We apply Michael's selection theorem to offer a direct,…

We show that if a (locally compact) group $G$ acts properly on a locally compact $\sigma$-compact space $X$ then there is a family of $G$-invariant proper continuous finite-valued pseudometrics which induces the topology of $X$. If $X$ is…

A Hausdorff topological group G is minimal if every continuous isomorphism f: G --> H between G and a Hausdorff topological group H is open. Significantly strengthening a 1981 result of Stoyanov, we prove the following theorem: For every…

For Pontryagin's group duality in the setting of locally compact topological Abelian groups, the topology on the character group is the compact open topology. There exist at present two extensions of this theory to topological groups which…

The paper deals with group dualities. A group duality is simply a pair $(G, H)$ where $G$ is an abstract abelian group and $H$ a subgroup of characters defined on $G$. A group topology $\tau$ defined on $G$ is {\it compatible} with the…

We construct some new cohomology theories for topological groups and Lie groups and study some of its basic properties. For example, we introduce a cohomology theory based on measurable cochains which are continuous in a neighbourhood of…

We prove that a large class of metrizable group topologies for subgroups of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and the completions of the subgroups are locally isometric to, respectively, metrizable group topologies for $\mathbb{Z}$ and their completions,…

A precompact group topology $\tau$ on an abelian group $G$ is called {\em single sequence characterized} (for short, {\em ss-characterized}) if there is a sequence $\mathbf{u}= (u_n)$ in $G$ such that $\tau$ is the finest precompact group…

A topological group $G$ is {\em sequentially $h$-complete} if all the continuous homomorphic images of $G$ are sequentially complete. In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions on a complete group for being compact, using the…

A.V.Arkhangel'skii asked in 1981 if the variety $\mathfrak V$ of topological groups generated by free topological groups on metrizable spaces coincides with the class of all topological groups. We show that if there exists a real-valued…

The space of closed subgroups of a locally compact topological group is endowed with a natural topology, called the Chabauty topology. Let X be a symmetric space of noncompact type, and G be its group of isometries. The space X identifies…

We discuss the topology of the symmetry groups appearing in compactified (super-)gravity, and discuss two applications. First, we demonstrate that for 3 dimensional sigma models on a symmetric space G/H with G non-compact and H the maximal…
