In a topological group, for any neighborhood $U$ of the origin, there is another such neighborhood with the property that $V.V\subseteq U.$ I conjecture a similar property for topological inverse ...

Let $G$ be a topological group (we can assume that $G$ is countable and discrete) and let $\beta(G)$ be the Stone–Čech compactification of $G$. It is known that $\beta(G)$ can be turned into a left ...

A semigroup $X$ endowed with a topology is called $\bullet$ a topological semigroup if the semigroup operation $X\times X\to X$ is continuous; $\bullet$ a semitopological semigroup if for every $a,b\...

An abelian cancellative semigroup embeds (via a semigroup monomorphism) into an abelian group. What about an abelian cancellative Hausdorff topological semigroup that does not embed (via a ...
