Abstract: For a locally compact metrizable group G, we study the action of mAut(G) on mSubG, the set of closed subgroups of G endowed with the Chabauty topology. Given an automorphism T of G, we relate the distality of the T-action on mSubG with that of the T-action on G under a certain condition. If G is a connected Lie group, we characterise the distality of the T-action on mSubG in terms of compactness of the closed group generated by T in mAut(G) under certain conditions on the center of G or on T as follows: G has no compact central subgroup of positive dimension or T is unipotent or T is contained in the connected component of the identity in mAut(G). Moreover, we also show that a connected Lie group G acts distally on mSubG if and only if G is either compact or it is isomorphic to a direct product of a compact group and a vector group. All the results on the Lie groups mentioned above hold for the action on mSubGa, a subset of mSubG consisting of closed abelian subgroups of G.
