Codistal subgroups of locally compact groups

Let $G$ be a topological group and let $H$ be a closed subgroup of $G$. Say $H$ is codistal in $G$ if the translation action of $G$ on the coset space $G/H$ is distal (meaning that no non-diagonal ...

Distal actions on coset spaces

Let $H$ be a group acting by homeomorphisms on a Hausdorff space $X$. Say the action is distal if for all $(x,y) \in X \times X$, if the set $\{(hx,hy) \mid h \in H\}$ accumulates at a diagonal point ...
