A theorem of A. Weil asserts that a topological group embeds as a (dense) subgroup of a locally compact group if and only if it contains a non-empty precompact open set; such groups are called "locally precompact. Within the class of locally precompact groups, the authors classify those groups with the following topological properties:
(1) Dieudonné completeness; (2) local realcompactness; (3) realcompactness; (4) hereditary realcompactness; (5) connectedness; (6) local connectedness; (7) zero-dimensionality.
They also prove that an abelian locally precompact group occurs as the quasi-component of a topological group if and only if it is "precompactly generated", that is, it is generated algebraically by a precompact subset.
