Un problème dû à Glasner, et désormais connu sous de nom de problème de Glasner, demande s’il existe un groupe polonais, minimalement presque périodique et monothétique, qui n’est pas extrêmement moyennable. Le but de cette courte note est d’observer qu’une réponse négative s’obtient sous l’hypothèse supplémentaire de la métrisablité du flot minimal universel.

A problem of Glasner, now known as Glasner’s problem, asks whether there exists a minimally almost periodic, monothetic, Polish group that is not extremely amenable. The purpose of this short note is to observe that a negative answer is obtained under the additional assumption that the universal minimal flow is metrizable.

Disclaimer:

Due to an editorial error, the citation [13] is wrong in the PDF. It should read:
