About path-connected components of the Bohr compactification of $\mathbb{R}^d$
Let ${\rm b}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ denote the Bohr compactification of $\mathbb{R}^d$, with $d\in\mathbb{N}$. This is the Pontryagin dual of the group $\mathbb{R}^d_d$, corresponding to $\mathbb{R}^d$ with ...

Pontriagin reflexivity of the character group
For an Abelian topological group $G$ by $G^{\wedge}$ we denote the Pontryagin dual of $G$, i.e. the group of continuous homomorphisms $G\to\mathbb T:=\{z\in\mathbb C:|z|=1\}$. The group $G^{\wedge}$ ...

A possible mistake in Walter Rudin, "Fourier analysis on groups"
I have the following lemma 4.2.4 on page 80 in the book (we have locally compact abelian topological groups $G_1, G_2$ and their duals $\Gamma_1, \Gamma_2$):
Suppose $E$ is a coset in $\Gamma_2$ ...
