The topological fundamental group $\pi_{1}^{top}$ is a homotopy invariant finer than the usual fundamental group. It assigns to each space a quasitopological group and is discrete on spaces which admit universal covers. For an arbitrary…

The quasitopological fundamental group $\pi_{1}^{qtop}(X,x_0)$ is the fundamental group endowed with the natural quotient topology inherited from the space of based loops and is typically non-discrete when $X$ does not admit a traditional…

This paper is devoted to the study of a natural group topology on the fundamental group which remembers local properties of spaces forgotten by covering space theory and weak homotopy type. It is known that viewing the fundamental group as…

Let $p:X\rightarrow X/A$ be a quotient map, where $A$ is a subspace of $X$. We explore conditions under which $p_*(\pi_1^{qtop}(X,x_0))$ is dense in $\pi_1^{qtop}(X/A,*))$, where the fundamental groups enjoy the natural quotient topology…

The purpose of this paper is to explore properties of the whisker topology, which is a topology endowed on the fundamental group and whose utility is to detect locally complicated phenomena in pathological topological spaces. We show that…

In this paper, we analyze the fundamental group $\pi_1(\Sigma X,\overline{x_0})$ of the reduced suspension $\Sigma X$ where $(X,x_0)$ is an arbitrary based Hausdorff space. We show that $\pi_1(\Sigma X,\overline{x_0})$ is canonically…

This paper is devoted to study some topological properties of the SG subgroup, $\pi_1^{sg}(X,x)$, of the quasitopological fundamental group of a based space $(X,x)$, $\pt$, its topological properties as a subgroup of the topological…

We show that the fundamental groupoid~\(\Pi_1(X)\) of a locally path connected semilocally simply connected space~\(X\) can be equipped with a \emph{natural} topology so that it becomes a topological groupoid; we also justify the necessity…

In this paper, by introducing some kind of small loop transfer spaces at a point, we study the behavior of topologized fundamental groups with the compact-open topology and the whisker topology, $\pi_{1}^{qtop}(X,x_{0})$ and…

For a path connected, locally path connected and semilocally simply connected space $X$, let $\Pi_1(X)$ denote its topologised fundamental groupoid as established in the first article of this series. Let $\mathcal{E}$ be the category of…

If $X$ is a topological group, then its fundamental groupoid $\pi_1X$ is a group-groupoid which is a group object in the category of groupoids. Further if $X$ is a path connected topological group which has a simply connected cover, then…

If $R$ is a topological ring then $R^{\ast}$, the group of units of $R$, with the subspace topology is not necessarily a topological group. This leads us to the following natural definition: By an \emph{absolute topological ring} we mean a…

In this paper, we introduce an algebraic-topological invariant for commutative pm-rings, termed the spectral fundamental group, which is denoted by $\pi_{k}^{alg}(A)$. This group is defined via homotopy classes of loops within the space of…

Let $X$ be a topological space. We denote by $\pi_0(X)$ the set of connected components of $X$ and by $\Pi_1(U)$ the fundamental groupoid. In this paper we prove that for good topological spaces the assignments $U\mapsto\pi_0(U)$ and…

The harmonic archipelago HA is obtained by attaching a large pinched annulus to every pair of consecutive loops of the Hawaiian earring. We clarify the fundamental group pi1(HA) as a quotient of the Hawaiian earring group, provide a precise…

Let $X$ be a path connected, locally path connected and semilocally simply connected space; let $\tilde{X}$ be its universal cover. We discuss the existence and description of a Haar system on the fundamental groupoid $\Pi_1(X)$ of $X$. The…

The path component space of a topological space $X$ is the quotient space $\pi_0(X)$ whose points are the path components of $X$. We show that every Tychonoff space $X$ is the path-component space of a Tychonoff space $Y$ of weight…

Consider a connected topological space $X$ with a point $x \in X$ and let $K$ be a field with the discrete topology. We study the Tannakian category of finite dimensional (flat) vector bundles on $X$ and its Tannakian dual $\pi_K (X,x)$…

In this paper, using the topology on the set of shape morphisms between arbitrary topological spaces $X$, $Y$, $Sh(X,Y)$, defined by Cuchillo-Ibanez et al. in 1999, we consider a topology on the shape homotopy groups of arbitrary…

We survey the cohomology jumping loci and the Alexander-type invariants associated to a space, or to its fundamental group. Though most of the material is expository, we provide new examples and applications, which in turn raise several…
