The paper proves that for G = Aut(Q0) and every u in βG(Q0), the stabilizer H = G_u is inj-key but not co-minimal, first for rational stabilizers (Theorem 3.1) and then for all u (Theorem 3.19). The proof hinges on: (i) a precise description of βG(Q0), its four orbits, and the canonical G-factors (Fact 3.7, Lemma 3.8, Lemma 3.11), (ii) a classification showing there are exactly two admissible coset topologies on G/H, namely τ0/H and τT/H (Lemma 3.12 and surrounding discussion), and (iii) Merson’s Lemma to conclude equality of group topologies once they agree on H and on G/H (Fact 3.14). Non co-minimality follows by pulling back the compact-open topology from an appropriate G-factor (Lemma 3.4). These steps are explicitly present and consistent in the uploaded paper . The candidate solution reproduces the same architecture: describing βG(Q0), listing the two admissible coset topologies, performing a short case analysis, then invoking Merson’s Lemma to obtain inj-key, and finally using the compact-open pullback to witness non co-minimality. Aside from a minor phrasing in the high-level outline about what Merson’s Lemma itself guarantees (the detailed steps correctly use the classification to first synchronize the coset topologies), the model’s solution aligns closely with the paper’s proof.
Referee report (LaTeX)
\textbf{Recommendation:} minor revisions \textbf{Journal Tier:} specialist/solid \textbf{Justification:} The paper gives a clean and conceptually satisfying resolution to a natural problem about inj-key but non co-minimal subgroups within a well-studied Polish group Aut(Q0). The argument integrates structural dynamics (explicit description of βG(Q0) and M(G)), a sharp factor classification, and an elegant use of Merson’s Lemma. The results are correct and well-motivated; presentation can benefit from minor clarifications (e.g., emphasizing the two-step use of the coset-topology classification and Merson’s Lemma) and small streamlining of cross-references.
