Dec 31, 2010 at 18:54 comment added Theo Buehler @Anton: yes, gurs wanted in addition $s(x^{-1}) = s(x)^{-1}$ and this doesn't work with $2$. I agree that it would be nice to have a finite-dimensional connected (and compact) example, but I cannot come up with one right now.
Dec 31, 2010 at 18:40 comment added Anton Geraschenko @gurs: You can tweak the discrete example to be finite (and thus compact), 0 → 3ℤ/9ℤ → ℤ/9ℤ → ℤ/3ℤ → 0. Perhaps you want and example where $E$ is connected (and compact?). @Theo: Is there some reason to use 3 instead of 2, as Laurent did?
Dec 31, 2010 at 18:21 comment added Theo Buehler Thanks, Anton. @gurs: no, there is no example involving finite-dimensional Banach spaces because for such spaces all linear maps are continuous. If you want compact groups, try finite groups first, that shouldn't be too hard.
Dec 31, 2010 at 18:16 comment added Anton Geraschenko gurs says (moved from an answer): Dear Theo Buehler, many thanks for the example. Can someone give an example in the setting of compact topological groups or in the setting of finite dimensional Banach spaces.
