Sequentially complete groups: Dimension and minimality (Q5931434): Difference between revisions

A topological group \(G\) is minimal if every continuous isomorphism \(G\to H\) to a Hausdorff group \(H\) is open; it is called sequentially complete iff every Cauchy sequence in \(G\) converges. The authors discuss sequentially complete topological groups in the perspective of dimension/connectedness and minimality. The main result states: A sequentially complete minimal Abelian group \(G\) contains the connected component of its completion whenever the connected component of \(G\) is of nonmeasurable size. -- It has also been proved that the hereditarily disconnected sequentially complete minimal Abelian groups split in direct product of primary components and the sequentially complete totally minimal Abelian groups are compact.
