Factoring Continuous Characters Defined on Subgroups of Products of Topological Groups

Abstract

This study is on the factorization properties of continuous homomorphisms defined on subgroups (or submonoids) of products of (para)topological groups (or monoids). A typical result is the following one: Let D=∏i∈IDi be a product of paratopological groups, S be a dense subgroup of D, and χ a continuous character of S. Then one can find a finite set E⊂I and continuous characters χi of Di, for i∈E, such that χ=∏i∈Eχi∘piS, where pi:D→Di is the projection.
