We observe that G has a nontrivial group topology, coarser than its natural topology, w.r.t. which it is amenable, viz the relative weak topology of C(X,M(n)). This topology seems more useful than other known amenable topologies for G. We construct a simple fermionic model containing an action of G, continuous w.r.t. this amenable topology.8 pages, LatexMathematical PhysicsHigh Energy Physics - TheoryFunctional AnalysisGroup TheoryOperator Algebras43A07; 81T13; 46L30; 81R10; 81R15Amenability of the Gauge Grouptext
