The dual space of precompact groups (1212.5743v1)
Published 22 Dec 2012 in math.RT
Abstract: For any topological group $G$ the dual object $\hat G$ is defined as the set of equivalence classes of irreducible unitary representations of $G$ equipped with the Fell topology. If $G$ is compact, $\hat G$ is discrete. In an earlier paper we proved that $\hat G$ is discrete for every metrizable precompact group, i.e. a dense subgroup of a compact metrizable group. We generalize this result to the case when $G$ is an almost metrizable precompact group.
