✦ Synopsis

It is natural to extend the Grothendieck theorem on completeness, valid for locally convex topological vector spaces, to Abelian topological groups. The adequate framework to do it seems to be the class of locally quasi-convex groups. However, in this paper we present examples of metrizable locally quasi-convex groups for which the analogue to the Grothendieck theorem does not hold. By means of the continuous convergence structure on the dual of a topological group, we also state some weaker forms of the Grothendieck theorem valid for the class of locally quasi-convex groups. Finally, we prove that for the smaller class of nuclear groups, BB-reflexivity is equivalent to completeness.

We prove in this paper that for a Hausdorff group topology on an Abelian group with sufficiently many continuous characters, there is an associated locally quasi-convex topology which is the strongest among all the locally quasi-convex group topologies weaker than the given one.

Let H be a properly discontinuous group of isometries of a negatively curved (Gromov hyperbolic) metric space X. We give equivalent conditions on H to be quasi-convex. The main application of this is to give alternate definitions of quasi-convex, or rational subgroups of negatively curved (word hype
