Generalized metric spaces with algebraic structures

We discuss generalized metrizable properties on paratopological groups and topological groups. It is proved in this paper that a first-countable paratopological group which is a β-space is developable; and we construct a Hausdorff, separable, non-metrizable paratopological group which is developable. We consider paratopological (topological) groups determined by a point-countable first-countable subspaces and give partial answers to Arhangel'skii's conjecture; Nogura-Shakhmatov-Tanaka's question (Nogura et al., 1993 [23]). We also give a negative answer to a question in Cao et al. (in press) [10]. Finally, remainders of topological groups and paratopological groups are discussed and Arhangel'skii's Theorem (Arhangel'skii, 2007 [3]) is improved.
