Endowed with quotient topology inherited from the space of based loops, the fundamental group of the Hawaiian earring fails to be metrizable. The fundamental group of any space which retracts to the Hawaiian earring is also nonmetrizable.
The premier exhibition of the following phenomenon: The fundamental group of any Peano continuum constructed in similar fashion to the Hawaiian earring admits two natural distinct topological group structures. However despite being…
The classical archipelago is a non-contractible subset of $\mathbb{R}^3$ which is homeomorphic to a disk except at one non-manifold point. Its fundamental group, $\mathcal{A}$, is the quotient of the topologist's product of $\mathbb Z$, the…
The natural quotient map q from the space of based loops in the Hawaiian earring onto the fundamental group provides a new example of a quotient map such that q x q fails to be a quotient map. This also settles in the negative the question…
The topological fundamental group $\pi_{1}^{top}$ is a topological invariant that assigns to each space a quasi-topological group and is discrete on spaces which are well behaved locally. For a totally path-disconnected, Hausdorff, unbased…
A characterization of regular topological fundamental groups yields a `no retraction theorem' for spaces constructed in similar fashion to the Hawaiian earring.
Endowed with natural topologies, the fundamental group of the Hawaiian earring continuously injects into the inverse limit of free groups. This note shows the injection fails to have a continuous inverse. Such a phenomenon was unexpected…
We show a dichotomy for groups of cardinality less than continuum. The number of homomorphisms from the Hawaiian earring group to such a group $G$ is either the cardinality of $G$ in case $G$ is noncommutatively slender, or the number is…
The paper is devoted to study the structure of Hawaiian groups of some topological spaces. We present some behaviors of Hawaiian groups with respect to product spaces, weak join spaces, cone spaces, covering spaces and locally trivial…
The connected covering spaces of a connected and locally path-connected topological space $X$ can be classified by the conjugacy classes of those subgroups of $\pi_1(X,x)$ which contain an open normal subgroup of $\pi_1(X,x)$, when endowed…
We prove several new theorems regarding first homology. Some dichotomies for first homology of Peano continua are presented, as well as a notion of strong abelianization for arbitrary path connected metric spaces. We also show that the…
The set of homotopy classes of based paths in the Hawaiian earring has a natural $\mathbb R$-tree structure, but under that metric the action by the fundamental group is not by isometries. Following a suggestion by Cannon and Conner, this…
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…
We show the classical $\pi_1$-action on the $n$-th homotopy group can fail to be continuous for any $n$ when the homotopy groups are equipped with the natural quotient topology. In particular, we prove the action…
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…
We attach copies of the circle to points of a countable dense subset $D$ of a separable metric space $X$ and construct an earring space $E(X,D)$. We show that the fundamental group of $E(X,D)$ is isomorphic to a subgroup of the Hawaiian…
We investigate the fundamental group of Griffiths' space, and the first singular homology group of this space and of the Hawaiian Earring by using (countable) reduced tame words. We prove that two such words represent the same element in…
We construct a space $\mathbb{P}$ for which the canonical homomorphism $\pi_1(\mathbb{P},p) \rightarrow \check{\pi}_1(\mathbb{P},p)$ from the fundamental group to the first \v{C}ech homotopy group is not injective, although it has all of…
We describe homomorphisms $\varphi:H\rightarrow G$ for which the codomain is acylindrically hyperbolic and the domain is a topological group which is either completely metrizable or locally countably compact Hausdorff. It is shown that, in…
In this paper, we introduce a kind of homology which we call Hawaiian homology to study and classify pointed topological spaces. The Hawaiian homology group has advantages of Hawaiian groups. Moreover, the first Hawaiian homology group is…
