Does every compact abelian group contain a Kronecker set generating a dense subgroup?

Let $G$ be a compact metrizable abelian group with infinite exponent. Let $S^1 = \left\{z \in \mathbb{C} : |z| = 1 \right\}$. A set $K \subset G$ is a Kronecker set if, for every continuous function $ …

Density of “diagonal sets” in amenable groups

The answer to your question as stated is "no", but a variant of it is true (see the proposition below). Proof that the answer is "no": Let $(F_n)$ be the Følner sequence in $\mathbb{Z}$ given by $F_n …
