Neighborhoods of idempotents in topological inverse semigroups
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 ...

Making the powerset into a topological monoid
Every monoid $X$ induces a monoid structure $\circledast$ on $\mathcal{P}(X)$ via
$$U\circledast V := \{uv\ |\ u\in U,v\in V\}.$$
Moreover, a morphism of monoids $f\colon X\to Y$ induces a morphism of ...

Closure of the inverse image under the projection map
Let $S$ be a subsemigroup of a semitopological semigroup $(T,+)$, let $e$ be an idempotent in $T\setminus S$ such that $e\in cl_T(S)$, let $\mathcal{E}$ be a subsemigroup of $S\times S$ such that $(e,...

Stone–Čech compactification as a semigroup
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 ...
