Abstract: Locally compact abelian groups are classified in which the sum of any two closed subgroups is itself closed. This amounts to reproving and extending results by Yu.~N.~Mukhin from 1970. Namely we contribute a complete classification of all totally disconnected lca groups with $X+Y$ closed for any closed subgroups $X$ and $Y$.

Review text

The authors study the classification of the locally compact abelian grous in which the sum \(U+V\) of closed subgroups \(U,V\) is again closed. The results in this paper extend an old classification of Yu.~N.~Mukhin. In particular the case of totally disconnected groups is studied more closely.
