Character groups and dual objects (43A40) Duality theorems for locally compact groups (22D35)

Abstract: For a compactly generated LCA group $G$, it is shown that the set $H(G)$ of all generalized characters on $G$ equipped with the compact-open topology is a LCA group and $H(G)=dg$ (the dual group of $G$) if and only if $G$ is compact. Both results fail for arbitrary LCA groups. Further, if $G$ is second countable, then the Gel'fand space of the commutative convolution algebra $ccg$ equipped with the inductive limit topology is topologically homeomorphic to $hg$.
