Abstract
Abstract. We solve Hilbert’s fifth problem for local groups: every locally euclidean local group is locally isomorphic to a Lie group. Jacoby claimed a proof of this in 1957, but this proof is seriously flawed. We use methods from nonstandard analysis and model our solution after a treatment of Hilbert’s fifth problem for global groups by Hirschfeld. 1.
