Conjecture on non-isomorphism of universal ambits for closed subgroups of S∞S_\infty

At least 7 years old · documented by

Let GG be a closed, non-compact subgroup of S∞S_\infty whose universal minimal flow M(G)M(G) is metrizable. Consider the universal ambit S(G)S(G) and the enveloping semigroup E(M(G))E(M(G)).

Non-isomorphism conjecture.

S(G)≇E(M(G)).S(G)\not\cong E(M(G)).

This is presented as a strict sub-conjecture of Pestov's conjecture and is suggested as a potentially more approachable version. The source does not provide evidence that it has been resolved.
