Abstract
In this paper, we study the topological structure on Ext-groups of unital extensions. It is proved that the stable strong Ext-group and the stable weak Ext-group for unital extensions are pseudopolish groups if A is a unital \(C^*\)-algebra in the bootstrap class \({{\mathcal {N}}}\) and B is a stable separable \(C^*\)-algebra. Furthermore, we topologize certain UCTs and prove that these UCTs are exact sequences as topological groups.

Notes
The completeness of \(E^{ua}(A,B)\) was proved in [16, Remark 3.1] and a similar argument holds for the completeness of \(E^{a}(A,B)\).
In [17, P. 49] C. Schochet adopted a different approach to show that \(E \text {xt}(A,B)\) is a separable complete pseudometric groups under the additional assumption that B is also separable.
