In particular, every metrizable group is such, but the class of groups with a $\\mathfrak G$-base is significantly wider. The aim of this article is to better understand the boundaries of this class, by presenting new examples and counter-examples. Ultraproducts and non-arichimedean ordered fields lead to natural families of non-metrizable groups with a $\\mathfrak G$-base which nevertheless have the Baire property. More examples come from such constructions as the free topological group and the free Abelian topological group of a Tychonoff (more generally uniform) space, as well as the free product of topological groups. Our results answer some questions previously stated in the literature.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-11-22T20:24:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "22A05" ], "keywords": [ "topological groups admitting", "monotone cofinal map", "free abelian topological group", "results answer", "neighbourhood system" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv151107062L" } } }
