On embeddings of topological groups. II.

From MaRDI portal





In this short paper the author proves that for two given infinite cardinal numbers \(c\) and \(w\) with \(c \leq w\) there exists a topological group \(G\) (resp. an abelian topological group \(G\)) of character and weight not exceeding, respectively, \(c\) and \(2^w\) such that each topological group (resp. each abelian topological group) of character and weight not exceeding, respectively, \(c\) and \(w\) is topologically isomorphic to a subgroup of \(G\). In particular, this applies to metrizable groups (when \(c = \aleph_0\)). The proof involves Raǐkov complete groups. The paper is concluded with a few questions related to the existence of universal topological groups in the classes of, e.g., finite-dimensional/abelian/arbitrary topological groups whose characters and weights are bounded above by fixed cardinals.
