On the topology of free paratopological groups

On the topology of free paratopological groups The result often known as Joiner's lemma is fundamental in understanding the topology of the free topological group F(X) on a Tychonoff space X. In this paper, an analogue of Joiner's lemma for the free paratopological group FP (X) on a T1 space X is proved. Using this, it is shown that the following conditions are equivalent for a space X: (1) X is T1; (2) FP (X) is T1; (3) the subspace X of FP (X) is closed; (4) the subspace X−1 of FP (X) is discrete; (5) the subspace X−1 is T1; (6) the subspace X−1 is closed and (7) the subspace FP n(X) is closed for all n∈ℕ, where FP n(X) denotes the subspace of FP (X) consisting of all words of length at most n. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society Wiley

Abstract

The result often known as Joiner's lemma is fundamental in understanding the topology of the free topological group F(X) on a Tychonoff space X. In this paper, an analogue of Joiner's lemma for the free paratopological group FP (X) on a T1 space X is proved. Using this, it is shown that the following conditions are equivalent for a space X: (1) X is T1; (2) FP (X) is T1; (3) the subspace X of FP (X) is closed; (4) the subspace X−1 of FP (X) is discrete; (5) the subspace X−1 is T1; (6) the subspace X−1 is closed and (7) the subspace FP n(X) is closed for all n∈ℕ, where FP n(X) denotes the subspace of FP (X) consisting of all words of length at most n.
