Extract

Our motivation for this paper is to be found in (2) and (3). In (2) Varopoulos considers inductive limits of topological groups, in particular what he calls ‘ℒ’. (He calls a topology an ℒ-topology when it is the inductive limit of a decreasing sequence of locally compact Hausdorff topologies.) In (2) he proves that much of the classical theory of locally compact Abelian groups also goes through for Abelian ℒ-groups, in particular Pontrjagin duality.
