In 2005, Kechris, Pestov and Todorčević provided a powerful tool to compute an invariant of topological groups known as the universal minimal flow, immediately leading to an explicit representation of this invariant in many concrete cases. More recently, the framework was generalized allowing for further applications, and the purpose of this paper is to apply these new methods in the context of...

Let G be a topological group with the identity element e. Given a space X, we denote by Cp(X,G) the group of all continuous functions from X to G endowed with the topology of pointwise convergence, and we say that X is: (a) G-regular if, for each closed set F ⊆ X and every point x ∈ X \ F , there exist f ∈ Cp(X,G) and g ∈ G \ {e} such that f(x) = g and f(F ) ⊆ {e}; (b) G-regular provided that t...

the notion of generalized locally bounded $i$-topological vectorspaces is introduced. some of their important properties arestudied. the relationship between this kind of spaces and thelocally bounded $i$-topological vector spaces introduced by wu andfang [boundedness and locally bounded fuzzy topological vectorspaces, fuzzy math. 5 (4) (1985) 87$-$94] is discussed. moreover, wealso use the fam...

Let X be a topological abelian group and H subgroup of X. We find conditions under which local quasi-convexity both X/H results in the same property for This is true instance if precompact, or metrizable dually embedded also either discrete bounded torsion. give some general principles point out errors we have found existing literature on this problem.

We present several examples of feebly compact Hausdorff paratopological groups (i.e., groups with continuous multiplication) which provide answers to a number of questions posed in the literature. It turns out that a 2-pseudocompact, feebly compact Hausdorff paratopological group G can fail to be a topological group. Our group G has the Baire property, is Fréchet–Urysohn, but it is not precompa...
