Quotients of Strongly Realcompact Groups
A topological group is strongly realcompact if it is topologically isomorphic to a closed subgroup of a product of separable metrizable groups. We show that if H is an invariant Čech-complete subgroup of an ω-narrow topological group G, then G is strongly realcompact if and only if G/H is strongly r...

Summary: | A topological group is strongly realcompact if it is topologically isomorphic to a closed subgroup of
a product of separable metrizable groups. We show that if H is an invariant Čech-complete subgroup of an
ω-narrow topological group G, then G is strongly realcompact if and only if G/H is strongly realcompact. Our
proof of this result is based on a thorough study of the interaction between the P-modification of topological
groups and the operation of taking quotient groups. |
