Classifying the Polish semigroup topologies on the symmetric inverse monoid
Abstract
We classify all Polish semigroup topologies on the symmetric inverse monoid on the natural numbers. This result answers a question of Elliott et al. There are countably infinitely many such topologies. Under containment, these Polish semigroup topologies form a join-semilattice with infinite descending chains, no infinite ascending chains, and arbitrarily large finite anti-chains. Also, we show that the monoid endowed with any second countable T_1 semigroup topology is homeomorphic to the Baire space.
