Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to prove one of Zeeman's conjectures that the group of homeomorphisms of the finest topology on Minkowski space that induces the 3‐dimensional Euclidean topology on spacelike hyperplanes is the one generated by the inhomogeneous Lorentz group and dilatations.Keywords
