Abstract

Abstract We provide a very short elementary proof that every separable abelian group with a bounded invariant metric isometrically embeds into a monothetic group with a bounded invariant metric, in such a way that the result of Morris and Pestov that every separable abelian topological group embeds into a monothetic group is an immediate corollary. We show that the boundedness assumption cannot be dropped.
