Abstract:
We prove that the following spaces are homeomorphic to $l_2^f$: (1) the group of piecewise continuous autotransformations of $[ - 1,1]$ preserving Lebesgue measure, and (2) certain subgroups obtained as group spans of linearly independent arcs in linear spaces. These are consequences of our discussion of the problem whether $\sigma$-fd-compact locally contractible metric groups must be either finite-dimensional or locally homeomorphic to $l_2^f$.References
