Existence of Free Groups and Semigroups in Some Kinds of Compactification


Abstract in English

It is known that (Z×Z) is a semigroup with respect to addition, and it can be endowed with the discrete topology; where Z is the set of integers. We can make β(Z×Z), the Stone –Cech compactification of (Z×Z), a right – topological semi group (Baker & Butcher).
