TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that the identity component of the automorphism group of a topological parallelism on real projective 3-space is compact, and that at least one component of this group is, indeed, compact.
Abstract
We conjecture that the automorphism group of a topological parallelism on real projective 3-space is compact. We prove that at least the identity component of this group is, indeed, compact.

Pencilled regular parallelisms

TL;DR: In this article, the existence of pencilled line sets with respect to the Klein quadric was shown to be an algebraic condition for hyperflock determining line sets (hfd line sets).

A characterization of Clifford parallelism by automorphisms

TL;DR: Betten and Riesinger as discussed by the authors showed that Clifford parallelism admits a group of dimension at least 3, so 3 is the critical dimension for a Clifford topological parallelism.

A characterization of Clifford parallelism by automorphisms

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that Clifford parallelism is the only topological parallelism that admits a group of dimension at least 3, and that 3 is the critical dimension.

Characterising Clifford parallelisms among Clifford-like parallelisms

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the action of the full automorphism group of a Clifford-like parallelism on parallel classes in a 3D projective double space and proved that the linear part of the group of the Clifford parallelism is the same for all Cliffordlike parallelisms which can be associated to it.

Automorphisms of a Clifford-like parallelism

TL;DR: In this article, the automorphism group of a Clifford-like parallelism over a quaternion skew field was studied, and it was shown that over certain skew fields, it is possible to choose a group of automorphisms in such a way that the group is either properly contained in the left parallelism or coincides with the right parallelism.

On Some Types of Topological Groups

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a locally compact group G can be approximated by Lie groups, if G contains a system of normal subgroups {Na} such that G/Na are Lie groups and that the intersection of all Na coincides with the identity e.g.
