Abstract: Let $Homeo(Omega)$ be the group of all homeomorphisms of a Cantor set $Omega$. We study topological properties of $Homeo(Omega)$ and its subsets with respect to the uniform $(au)$ and weak $(a{u}_w)$ topologies. The classes of odometers and periodic, aperiodic, minimal, rank 1 homeomorphisms are considered and the closures of those classes in $au$ and $a{u}_w$ are found.

Review text

This paper is a continuation of an article by the same authors [ibid. 333--385 (2006; Zbl 1136.37002)] concerned with the group of Borel automorphisms of a standard Borel space. Here the uniform and weak topologies on the group of homeomorphisms of a Cantor set, and the closures with respect to each of these topologies is found for the set of odometers, periodic, aperiodic, minimal, and rank-\(1\) maps. As in the case of the first paper in this pair, the paper is richly populated with ideas, examples, and clarifying results.
