Abstract

A topology τ on a monoid S is called \em shift-continuous if for every a,b∈ S the two-sided shift S→ S, x↦ axb, is continuous. For every ordinal α≤ ω, we describe all shift-continuous locally compact Hausdorff topologies on the α-bicyclic monoid Bα. More precisely, we prove that the lattice of shift-continuous locally compact Hausdorff topologies on Bα is anti-isomorphic to the segment of [1,α] of ordinals, endowed with the natural well-order. Also we prove that for each ordinal α the α+1-bicyclic monoid Bα+1 is isomorphic to the Bruck extension of the α-bicyclic monoid Bα.
