We give an introduction to the Cayley-Abels graph for a totally disconnected, locally compact (tdlc) group. It is a generalization of the Cayley graph. We illustrate that on the one hand, Cayley-Abels graphs are useful tools to extend…

We propose a homology theory for locally compact spaces with ends in which the ends play a special role. The approach is motivated by results for graphs with ends, where it has been highly successful. But it was unclear how the original…

We generalize the dual notions of "expansion" and "collapse" so they can be applied to arbitrary metric spaces. We also expand the theory to allow for infinitely many such moves. Those tools are then employed to prove a variety of…

In this paper we investigate Schur ultrafilters on groups. Using the algebraic structure of Stone-\v{C}ech compactifications of discrete groups and Schur ultrafilters, we give a new description of Bohr compactifications of topological…

The article is devoted to a structure of topological spaces related with topological quasigroups. Regular and complete spaces over topological quasigroups are studied. Separations and embeddings are also investigated for them. Their…

We introduce the notion of \emph{topo-symmetric extensions} of topological groups, a new generalization of classical group extensions that incorporates both topological and symmetry constraints. We define morphisms between such extensions,…

We study the topology of circularly ordered sets. While the algebraic notion is classical, the general topological theory has received comparatively little attention. In this work we provide a self-contained topological exposition and…

This article studies automorphism groups of graph products of arbitrary groups. We completely characterise automorphisms that preserve the set of conjugacy classes of vertex groups as those automorphisms that can be decomposed as a product…

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…

In finite graphs, finite-order tangles offer an abstract description of highly connected substructures. In infinite graphs, infinite-order tangles compactify the graphs in the same way the ends compactify connected locally finite graphs.…

$p$-Adic compactifications of geometric loop and diffeomorphism groups of compact manifolds on finite-dimensional spaces over non-Archimedean fields are investigated. Weakened topology is introduced. The structure of newly constructed…

Problems of dense and closed extension of actions of compact transformation groups are solved. The method developed in the paper is applied to problems of extension of equivariant maps and of construction of equivariant compactifications.

The article is devoted to the investigation of groups of diffeomorphisms and loops of manifolds over ultra-metric fields of zero and positive characteristics. Different types of topologies are considered on groups of loops and…

The path spaces of a directed graph play an important role in the study of graph $\css$. These are topological spaces that were originally constructed using groupoid and inverse semigroup techniques. In this paper, we develop a simple,…

We give a "limit-free formula" simplifying the computation of the topological entropy for topological automorphisms of totally disconnected locally compact groups. This result allows us to extend several basic properties of the topological…

We study groups of homeomorphic bijections on spaces that are finite unions of compact connected linearly ordered subsets. We prove that all such groups when endowed with the topology of point-wise convergence are topological groups. }

We introduce a new class of locally compact groups, namely the strongly compactly covered groups, which are the Hausdorff topological groups $G$ such that every element of $G$ is contained in a compact open normal subgroup of $G$. For…

In recent work, the authors developed a simple method of constructing topological spaces from certain well-behaved partially ordered sets -- those coming from sequences of relations between finite sets. This method associates a given poset…
