On Compact Topologies on the Semigroup of Finite Partial-Order Isomorphisms of Bounded Rank of an Infinite Linearly Ordered Set
摘要
We study the problem of topologization of a semigroup 𝒪ℐn(L) of finite partial-order isomorphisms of bounded rank of an infinite linearly ordered set (L,≤). In particular, it is shown that every T1 lefttopological (right-topological) semigroup 𝒪ℐn(L) is an Urysohn, functionally Hausdorff, totally disconnected, and scattered space. It is also proved that, on the semigroup 𝒪ℐn(L), there exists a unique Hausdorff countably compact (pseudocompact) shift-continuous topology, which is compact, and that the Bohr compactification of the Hausdorff topological semigroup 𝒪ℐn(L) is the trivial semigroup.
