An eccentric is a universal algebra $\ (X\ \sigma\ \lambda\ \rho)\ $ such that operations $\ \sigma\ \lambda\ \rho\,:\,X\times X\to X\ $ satisfy: 1. $\quad \forall_{x\ y\,\in X}\quad \lambda(\sigma(x\ y)\ y)\ =\ x; $ 2. $\quad \forall_{x\ y\,\in X}\quad \rho\,(x\ \sigma(x\ y))\ =\ y; $ Let $\ \mathcal T\ $ be a topology in $\ X\ $ such that its three operations are continuous. Furthermore, let topological space $\ \mathbf X:=(X\,\ \mathcal T)\ $ be Hausdorff and connected. >**Question 1**: can $\ \mathbf X\ $ be a manifold that is not homeomorphic to any Lie group? Or can $\ \mathbf X\ $ be homeomorphic to a non-commutative Lie group? >**Question 2**: can $\ \mathbf X\ $ be homeomorphic to Hilbert cube or Knaster pseudo-arc?
