Abstract
We state a simple fact relating some continuity and homomorphy properties of an internal map** between nonstandard extensions of topological groups and the nonstandard extension of the “observable trace” of the map, which can be interpreted as a kind of stability principle. This leads to a strengthening of two formerly proved (standard) stability results (a global one and a local one) along with simplifying their proofs. We show that every “sufficiently continuous,” “reasonably bounded” and “sufficiently homomorphic” map** from a locally compact to an arbitrary topological group is “arbitrarily close” to a continuous homomorphism between them.
