چکیده
Preliminaries. Bn (resp. 5„_i) will denote the subset of Rn consisting of those x such that ||x|| g 1 (resp. ¡|x|| = 1). x0 will denote the point (1, 0, 0, •• -, 0) of R" and T will denote Si made into a topological group by using complex multiplication. All groups will be assumed to be Abelian. For a based topological space X and a topological group G, let C(X, G) denote the set of maps (i.e., base point preserving continuous maps) of X into G (where G is considered to be a based topological space with base point 0). In an obvious fashion, <S(X, G) can be endowed with a group structure. In case X is also a topological group (considered as a based topological space with base point 0) let Hom(X, G) denote the subgroup of Q(X, G) consisting of those maps which are homomorphisms. The spaces Bn and Sn-i will all be assumed to be based with x0 as a base point. If G is a discrete or compact group we let G* denote the group Hom(G, T) endowed with the topology of compact convergence. If G is compact (resp. discrete) then it is known that G* is discrete (resp. compact). Also for two discrete or two compact groups Gi and G2 we have an isomorphism from the group Hom(Gi, G2) onto Hom(G2*, Gi*) where an element /£Hom(Gi, G2) is mapped onto its transpose/*. Furthermore a sequence of compact (or discrete) groups

On continuous cohomology of locally compact Abelian groups and bilinear maps
Let $A$ be an abelian topological group and $B$ a trivial topological $A$-module. In this paper we define the second bilinear cohomology with a trivial coefficient. We show that every abelian group can be embedded in a central extension of abelian groups with bilinear cocycle. Also we show that in the category of locally compact abelian groups a central extension with a continuous section can b...
متن کاملBracket Products on Locally Compact Abelian Groups
We define a new function-valued inner product on L2(G), called ?-bracket product, where G is a locally compact abelian group and ? is a topological isomorphism on G. We investigate the notion of ?-orthogonality, Bessel's Inequality and ?-orthonormal bases with respect to this inner product on L2(G).
متن کاملShift Invariant Spaces and Shift Preserving Operators on Locally Compact Abelian Groups
We investigate shift invariant subspaces of $L^2(G)$, where $G$ is a locally compact abelian group. We show that every shift invariant space can be decomposed as an orthogonal sum of spaces each of which is generated by a single function whose shifts form a Parseval frame. For a second countable locally compact abelian group $G$ we prove a useful Hilbert space isomorphism, introduce range funct...
متن کاملHigher Homotopy of Groups Definable in O-minimal Structures
It is known that a definably compact group G is an extension of a compact Lie group L by a divisible torsion-free normal subgroup. We show that the o-minimal higher homotopy groups of G are isomorphic to the corresponding higher homotopy groups of L. As a consequence, we obtain that all abelian definably compact groups of a given dimension are definably homotopy equivalent, and that their unive...
متن کاملOn component extensions locally compact abelian groups
Let $pounds$ be the category of locally compact abelian groups and $A,Cin pounds$. In this paper, we define component extensions of $A$ by $C$ and show that the set of all component extensions of $A$ by $C$ forms a subgroup of $Ext(C,A)$ whenever $A$ is a connected group. We establish conditions under which the component extensions split and determine LCA groups which are component projective. ...
متن کاملPseudoframe multiresolution structure on abelian locally compact groups
Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group. The concept of a generalized multiresolution structure (GMS) in $L^2(G)$ is discussed which is a generalization of GMS in $L^2(mathbb{R})$. Basically a GMS in $L^2(G)$ consists of an increasing sequence of closed subspaces of $L^2(G)$ and a pseudoframe of translation type at each level. Also, the construction of affine frames for $L^2(G)$ bas...
