contents A topological group is (openly) almost-elliptic if it contains a(n open) dense subset of elements generating relatively-compact cyclic subgroups. We classify the (openly) almost-elliptic connected locally compact groups as precisely those with compact maximal semisimple quotient and whose maximal compact subgroups act trivial-weight-freely on the Euclidean quotients of the closed derived series' successive layers. In particular, an extension of a compact connected group $\mathbb{K}$ by a connected, simply-connected solvable Lie group $\mathbb{L}$ is (openly) almost-elliptic precisely when the weights of the $\mathbb{K}$-action on $Lie(\mathbb{L})$ afforded by the extension are all non-trivial.

A topological group is (openly) almost-elliptic if it contains a(n open) dense subset of elements generating relatively-compact cyclic subgroups. We classify the (openly) almost-elliptic connected locally compact groups as precisely those with compact maximal semisimple quotient and whose maximal compact subgroups act trivial-weight-freely on the Euclidean quotients of the closed derived series' successive layers. In particular, an extension of a compact connected group $\mathbb{K}$ by a connected, simply-connected solvable Lie group $\mathbb{L}$ is (openly) almost-elliptic precisely when the weights of the $\mathbb{K}$-action on $Lie(\mathbb{L})$ afforded by the extension are all non-trivial.
