Abstract:
Let S be a compact connected finite dimensional monoid whose group of units G is a compact connected Lie group. Then there is an open set W about the unit element such that any compact subgroup within W has dimension at most $\dim S - \dim G - 1$ and if any toral subgroup achieves this dimension then that toral subgroup lies in the centralizer of G. Two applications are given, one to embeddings of irreducible monoids into S.References
