Oct 23, 2010 at 11:39 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | Cool! The business about $S^\infty$ I gave above was my own response to a problem Paul Halmos mentions in his autobiography: does there exist a nontrivial connected Hausdorff topological group of exponent 2? (This problem is one of fifteen on a take-home final he once gave.) Ever since I found this solution, I've enjoyed trotting it out on odd occasions, and I'm happy that MO provided me with an opportunity to do so again! | |
