Abstract

The aim of this project is to make the student familiar to a ongoing research work in order to give continuity to his studied and projects of the previous stages of this scientific initiation. The student will have contact with recent articles containing open problems, some still in stage of submission, involving countably compact topological groups. This way, the student will have the experience of having contact with problems that are still open before graduating. (AU)
