The modulus-of-continuity conjecture for topologies on Urysohn isometry groups

From papers

Let R\mathcal{R} be a distance monoid, let U\mathcal{U} be an R\mathcal{R}-Urysohn space, and write G=Isom(U)G=\operatorname{Isom}(\mathcal{U}). Let τst\tau_{st} denote the stabilizer topology, and let an R\mathcal{R}-modulus of continuity mean a function of the type defined in the paper that determines a topology τf\tau_f on GG.

Modulus-of-continuity conjecture. Every group topology on GG strictly coarser than τst\tau_{st} is of the form τf\tau_f for some R\mathcal{R}-modulus of continuity.

This conjecture proposes a parametrization of all strictly coarser group topologies by moduli of continuity, motivated by their interpretation through generalized bi-Katetov maps and types of pairs of copies of the Urysohn space. Its general validity is open.
