Every topological group $G$ has some natural compactifications which can be a useful tool of studying $G$. We discuss the following constructions: (1) the greatest ambit $S(G)$ is the compactification corresponding to the algebra of all…

Let X be a zero-dimensional compact space such that all non-empty clopen subsets of X are homeomorphic to each other, and let H(X) be the group of all self-homeomorphisms of X with the compact-open topology. We prove that the Roelcke…

A Hausdorff topological group is called minimal if it does not admit a strictly coarser Hausdorff group topology. This paper mostly deals with the topological group $H_+(X)$ of order-preserving homeomorphisms of a compact linearly ordered…

In this paper we further study links between concentration of measure in topological transformation groups, existence of fixed points, and Ramsey-type theorems for metric spaces. We prove that whenever the group $\Iso(\U)$ of isometries of…

We introduce two minimality properties of subgroups in topological groups. A subgroup $H$ is a key subgroup (co-key subgroup) of a topological group $G$ if there is no strictly coarser Hausdorff group topology on $G$ which induces on $H$…

According to Kat\vetov (1988), for every infinite cardinal $\mathfrak m$ satisfying ${\mathfrak m}^{\mathfrak n}\leq {\mathfrak m}$ for all ${\mathfrak n}<{\mathfrak m}$, there exists a unique $\mathfrak m$-homogeneous universal metric…

A Hausdorff topological group topology on a group $G$ is the minimum (Hausdorff) group topology if it is contained in every Hausdorff group topology on $G$. For every compact metrizable space $X$ containing an open $n$-cell, $n\ge2$, the…

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…

A Polish group is said to be locally Roelcke precompact if there is a neighborhood of the identity element that is totally bounded in the Roelcke (or lower) group uniformity. These form a subclass of the locally bounded groups, while…

We give a general criterion for the (bounded) simplicity of the automorphism groups of certain countable structures and apply it to show that the isometry group of the Urysohn space modulo the normal subgroup of bounded isometries is a…

We show that the topology of uniform convergence on bounded sets is compatible with the group law of the automorphism group of a large class of spaces that are endowed with both a uniform structure and a bornology, thus yielding numerous…

We study topologization of the semigroup $\mathscr{O\!\!I}\!_n(L)$ of finite partial order isomorphisms of a bounded rank of an infinite linear ordered set $(L,\leqslant)$. In particular we show that every $T_1$ left-topological…

By [6], a minimal group $G$ is called $z$-minimal if $G/Z(G)$ is minimal. In this paper, we present the $z$-Minimality Criterion for dense subgroups with some applications to topological matrix groups. For a locally compact group $G$, let…

We study the topological structure and the topological dynamics of groups of homeomorphisms of scattered spaces. For a large class of them (including the homeomorphism group of any ordinal space or of any locally compact scattered space),…

Following a similar result of Uspenskij on the unitary group of a separable Hilbert space we show that with respect to the lower (or Roelcke) uniform structure the Polish group $G= \Aut(\mu)$, of automorphisms of an atomless standard Borel…

The group of homeomorphisms of the closed interval that are absolutely continuous and have an absolutely continuous inverse was shown by Solecki to admit a natural Polish group topology $\tau_{ac}$. We show that, under mild conditions on a…

A thorough classification of the topologies of compact homogeneous universes is given except for the hyperbolic spaces, and their global degrees of freedom are completely worked out. To obtain compact universes, spatial points are…

As a consequence of Kirchberg's work, Connes' Embedding Conjecture is equivalent to the property that every homomorphism of the group $F_\infty\times F_\infty$ into the unitary group $U(\ell^2)$ with the strong topology is pointwise…

We prove that the isometry group $\Iso(\Ur)$ of the universal Urysohn metric space $\Ur$ equipped with the natural Polish topology is a L\'evy group in the sense of Gromov and Milman, that is, admits an approximating chain of compact (in…

We continue in this paper the study of locally minimal groups started in \cite{LocMin}. The minimality criterion for dense subgroups of compact groups is extended to local minimality. Using this criterion we characterize the compact abelian…
