Abstract

For a topological Abelian group X, we consider in the group X the uniform topology and study some properties of the obtained topological group. In particular, we show, that if \( X\kern0.5em =\kern0.5em \mathbb{S} \) is the circle group, then the group \( {\mathbb{S}}^{\mathbb{N}} \) endowed with the uniform topology has the dual group of cardinality 2c.
