Abstract: Let $G$ be a Polish (i.e., complete separable metric topological) group. Define $G$ to be an algebraically determined Polish group if for any Polish group $L$ and algebraic isomorphism $varphi:LmapstoG$, we have that $varphi$ is a topological isomorphism. Let $M(n,R)$ be the set of $nimesn$ matrices with real coefficients and let the group $G$ in the above definition be the natural semidirect product $R^{n}timesG(n)$, where $nge2$ and $G(n)$ is one of the following groups: either the general linear group $GL(n,R)=leftAinM(n,R)|det(A)e0ight$, or the special linear group $SL(n,R)=leftAinGL(n,R)|det(A)=1ight$, or $|SL(n,R)|=leftAinGL(n,R)||det(A)|=1ight$ or $G{L}^{+}(n,R)=leftAinGL(n,R)|det(A)>0ight$. These groups are of fundamental importance for linear algebra and geometry. The purpose of this paper is to prove that the natural semidirect product $R^{n}timesG(n)$ is an algebraically determined Polish group. Such a result is not true for $complexe{s}^{n}timesGL(n,complexes)$ nor even for $R^{3}timesSO(3,R)$. The proof of this result is done in a sequence of steps designed to verify the hypotheses of the road map Theorem 2. A key intermediate result is that $varph{i}^{-1}(SO(n,R))$ is an analytic subgroup of $L$ for every $nge2$.
