Inverse limit slender groups
Gregory Conner, Wolfgang Herfort, Curtis Kent +1
Classically, an abelian group is said to be slender if every homomorphism from the countable product to factors through the projection to some finit…
Uncountable groups and the geometry of inverse limits of coverings
Gregory Conner, Wolfgang Herfort, Curtis Kent +1
In this paper we develop a new approach to the study of uncountable fundamental groups by using Hurewicz fibrations with the unique path-lifting property (lifting spaces for short)…
When is the Sum of Two Closed Subgroups Closed in a Locally Compact Abelian Group
Wolfgang Herfort, Karl H. Hofmann, Francesco G. Russo
Locally compact abelian groups are classified in which the sum of any two closed subgroups is itself closed. This amounts to reproving and extending results by Yu.~N.~Mukhin from 1…
Geometry of compact lifting spaces
Gregory R. Conner, Wolfgang Herfort, Petar Pavešić
We study a natural generalization of inverse systems of finite regular covering spaces. A limit of such a system is a fibration whose fibres are profinite topological groups. Howev…
Some anomalous examples of lifting spaces
Gregory R. Conner, Wolfgang Herfort, Petar Pavešić
An inverse limit of a sequence of covering spaces over a given space is not, in general, a covering space over but is still a lifting space, i.e. a Hurewicz fibration with…
A Study in Locally Compact Groups
Karl H. Hofmann, Wolfgang Herfort, Francesco G. Russo
The class of locally compact near abelian groups is introduced and investigated as a class of metabelian groups formalizing and applying the concept of scalar multiplication. The s…
