The Vietoris topology on rectifiable spaces (Q2447241)

In this paper the hyperspace \(C(G)\) of compact subsets of a rectifiable space \(G\) endowed with the Vietoris topology is studied. It is shown that this topological space is a right loop if and only if the cardinality of \(G\) is 1 and that, for a locally compact rectifiable space \(G\), the semi-right loop \(C(G)\) is a topological semi-right loop.
