This paper continues our investigation into the question of when a homotopy $\omega = \{\omega_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ of 2-cocycles on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ gives rise to an isomorphism of the $K$-theory groups of…

Let $X$ be a closed smooth manifold, $G$ be a simple connected compact real Lie group, $M (G)$ be the group of all smooth maps from $X$ to $G$, and $M_0 (G)$ be its connected component for the $\mathcal C^\infty$-compact open topology. It…

In the paper we introduce a notion of the Bruck-Reilly $\lambda$-polycyclic extension of a monoid $S$ with a homomorphism $\theta$ which is an analogue of the Bruck-Reilly extension of a monoid $S$. We describe idempotens of the semigroup…

We prove that if $S$ is an $E$-solid locally inverse semigroup, and $\rho$ is an inverse semigroup congruence on $S$ such that the idempotent classes of $\rho$ are completely simple semigroups then $S$ is embeddable into a…

We introduce the notion of semigroup with a tight ideal series and investigate their closures in semitopological semigroups, particularly inverse semigroups with continuous inversion. As a corollary we show that the symmetric inverse…

We study algebraic properties on a group G such that if the discrete group G has these properties then every locally compact shift continuous topology on G with adjoined zero is either compact, or discrete. We introduce electorally flexible…

We show that for any co-amenable compact quantum group A=C(G) there exists a unique compact Hausdorff topology on the set EA of isomorphism classes of ergodic actions of G such that the following holds: for any continuous field of ergodic…

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 algorithmically compute integral Eilenberg-MacLane homology of all semigroups of order at most $8$ and present some particular semigroups with notable classifying spaces, refuting conjectures of Nico. Along the way, we give an…

Let $X$ be a Hausdorff topological group and $G$ a locally compact subgroup of $X$. We show that $X$ admits a locally finite $\sigma$-discrete $G$-functionally open cover each member of which is $G$-homeomorphic to a twisted product…

In this paper we consider McAlister semigroups over arbitrary cardinals and investigate their algebraic and topological properties. We show that the group of automorphisms of a McAlister semigroup $\mathcal{M}_{\lambda}$ is isomorphic to…

Let $\mathbb{G}$ be a compact Hausdorff group acting on a compact Hausdorff space $X$, $\alpha$ an irreducible $\mathbb{G}$-representation, and $C(X)$ the $C^*$-algebra of complex-valued continuous functions on $X$. We prove that the…

We initiate the study of the Stone-\v{C}ech transformation groupoid $\mathcal{G} = \mathcal{S}\ltimes\beta\mathcal{S}$ of an inverse semigroup $\mathcal{S}$. We prove that the properties of being Hausdorff, principal, and effective are all…

We introduce so-called cone topologies of paratopological groups, which are a wide way to construct counterexamples, especially of examples of compact-like paratopological groups with discontinuous inversion. We found a simple interplay…

We prove that for a compact subgroup $H$ of an almost connected locally compact Hausdorff group $G$, the following properties are mutually equivalent: (1) $H$ is a maximal compact subgroup of $G$, (2) $G/H$ is contractible, (3) $G/H$ is…

In this work we present algebraic conditions on an inverse semigroup S (with zero) which imply that its associated tight groupoid G_{tight)(S) is: Hausdorff, essentially principal, minimal and contracting, respectively. In some cases these…

Given any quasi-countable, in particular any countable inverse semigroup $S$, we introduce a way to equip $S$ with a proper and right subinvariant extended metric. This generalizes the notion of proper, right invariant metrics for discrete…

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions when a pseudocompact paratopological group is topological. (2-)pseudocompact and countably compact paratopological groups that are not topological are constructed. It is proved that each…

We consider a version of the notion of F-inverse semigroup (studied in the algebraic theory of inverse semigroups). We point out that an action of such an inverse semigroup on a locally compact space has associated a natural groupoid…

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…
