Abstract

We demonstrate that the characterizations of topological extreme amenability. In particular, we prove that for every locally compact semigroup S with a right identity, the condition μ(F×G)=(μF)×(μG), for F, G in M(S), and 0<μM(S), implies that μ=εa, for some aS (εa is a Dirac measure). We also obtain the conditions for which M(S) is topologically extremely left amenable.
