Distances on free semigroups and their applications. (English) Zbl 1406.20054

Summary: In this article it is proved that for any quasimetric \(d\) on a set \(X\) with a base-point \(p_X\) there exists a maximal invariant extension \(\hat{\rho}\) on the free monoid \(F^a(X, \mathcal V)\) in a non-Burnside quasi-variety \( \mathcal V\) of topological monoids (Theorem 6.1). This fact permits to prove that for any non-Burnside quasi-variety \( \mathcal V\) of topological monoids and any \(T_0\)-space \(X\) the free topological monoid \(F(X, \mathcal V)\) exists and is abstract free (Theorem 8.1). Corollary 10.2 affirms that \(F(X, \mathcal V)\), where \(\mathcal V\) is a non-trivial complete non-Burnside quasi-variety of topological monoids, is a topological digital space if and only if \(X\) is a topological digital space.
