Bounded normal generation is not equivalent to topological bounded normal generation
doi:10.17398/2605-5686.34.1.85
Keywords:
Topological group, topological bounded normal generation, topological simplicity, full group, conjugacy classesAbstract
We show that some derived L1 full groups provide examples of non simple Polish groups with the topological bounded normal generation property. In particular, it follows that there are Polish groups with the topological bounded normal generation property but not the bounded normal generation property.
