Topological groups were a topic that were covered minimally at my undergraduate institution but it's a topic that I'm finding a need quite a bit in the number theory I'm reading (class field theory).

Is there a recommended source that covers the general theory preferably with lots of examples and exercises?

    @User1865345 Thanks for fixing the link. – Alex Ravsky Nov 28 '23 at 06:50
  • Sure. That's what community is meant for - contributing in any way to make a post useful. I already voted your other post of recommendation. Lev S. Pontrjagin's book seems to be accessible for me who is interested in studying invariance problems in statistical inference. – User1865345 Nov 28 '23 at 07:15
