We present a nonstandard hull construction for locally uniform groups in a spirit similar to Luxembourg's construction of the nonstandard hull of a uniform space. Our nonstandard hull is a local group rather than a global group. We investigate how this construction varies as one changes the family of pseudometrics used…

The convex hull of a set K in space consists of points which are, in a certain sense, "surrounded" by K. When K is a closed curve, we define its higher hulls, consisting of points which are "multiply surrounded" by the curve. Our main theorem shows that if a curve is knotted then it has a nonempty second hull. This pro…

We introduce the notion of a ``projective hull'' for subsets of complex projective varieties, parallel to the idea of the polynomial hull in affine varieties. With this concept, a generalization of J. Wermer's classical theorem on the hull of a curve in CnC^n is established in the projective setting. The projective hul…
