%0 Journal Article %T On zero-dimensionality and the connected component of locally pseudocompact groups %A Dikran Dikranjan %A G¨˘bor Luk¨˘cs %J Mathematics %D 2009 %I arXiv %R 10.1090/S0002-9939-2011-10626-9 %X A topological group is locally pseudocompact if it contains a non-empty open set with pseudocompact closure. In this note, we prove that if G is a group with the property that every closed subgroup of G is locally pseudocompact, then G_0 is dense in the component of the completion of G, and G/G_0 is zero-dimensional. We also provide examples of hereditarily disconnected pseudocompact groups with strong minimality properties of arbitrarily large dimension, and thus show that G/G_0 may fail to be zero-dimensional even for totally minimal pseudocompact groups. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0909.1390v3
