The author gives a selective survey of Comfort's results (with various co-authors) about topological groups. These results mainly belong to the area of set-theoretical aspects of the theory of topological groups. The paper contains the following sections: 1. Totally bounded group topologies (concerning groups that are embeddable in compact groups). 2. Pseudocompact groups. 3. Pseudocompact refinements. 4. Proper dense subgroups. 5. The Bohr topology of an LCA group (which is induced by the Bohr compactification). 6. Minimal topological groups (where the group topology is not a proper refinement of a Hausdorff group topology). 7. Miscellanea (free topological groups, group topologies that share closed subgroups, \(\omega\)-bounded subgroups, strongly resolvable groups). Apart from the description of known results, numerous open problems are stated. Further developments are indicated, as well. The paper contains a bibliography consisting of 90 items.
