• C05 Rigidity of group topologies and universal minimal flows

    We will study automatic continuity and universal minimal flows for topological groups acting on geometric objects. First, we focus on rigidity of group topologies, motivated by a question due to Rosendal on the existence of a locally compact infinite group with the automatic continuity property. We want to study this question for Burger–Mozes groups. Furthermore, motivated by a question of Evans–Hubička–Nešetřil, we want to understand when universal minimal flows of kaleidoscopic groups are metrisable. Our methods will involve interactions between group theory, topological dynamics and Ramsey theory.
