Pseudocompact Mal'tsev spaces (Q1295280)

The paper is full of interesting results on pseudocompact spaces. The main result generalizes Comfort-Ross theorems [\textit{W. W. Comfort} and \textit{K. A. Ross}, Pac. J. Math. 16, 483-496 (1966; Zbl 0214.28502)]: (1) Every product of pseudocompact Mal'tsev spaces is pseudocompact; (2) If \(X\) is a pseudocompact Mal'tsev space, then every Mal'tsev operation on \(X\) extends to a Mal'tsev operation on \(\beta X\) and, moreover, \(\beta X\) is Dugundji and \(X\) is a retract of a topological group. The last result generalizes a result by Sipacheva for compact Mal'tsev spaces [\textit{O. V. Sipacheva} and \textit{V. V. Uspenskij}, Mosc. Univ. Math. Bull. 42, No. 4, 24-29 (1987); translation from Vestn. Mosk. Univ., Ser. I 1987, No. 4, 21-24 (1987; Zbl 0623.22002)]. One result from many others concerning continuous maps on products of pseudocompact or countably compact spaces: Every continuous map on product of pseudocompact spaces \(X,Y,Z\) extends to a separately continuous map on \(\beta X\times \beta Y\times \beta Z\).
