Topological groups which satisfy an open mapping theorem

Douglas Lloyd Grant

Vol. 68 (1977), No. 2, 411–423
Abstract

Let 𝒞 be a category of Hausdorff topological groups. A Hausdorff topological group G is called a B(𝒞) group if every continuous and almost open homomorphism from G onto a group in 𝒞 is open. An internal characterization of such groups is obtained. For certain 𝒞, the permanence properties of B(𝒞) groups and related categories are investigated, with some positive results pertaining to products and subobjects, and several counterexamples. Forms of the closed graph theorem for topological groups are then obtained which generalize results of T. Husain.
