    The author shows that the automorphism group \(\mathrm{Aut}( [0, 1], \lambda )\) of the Lebesgue measure on the unit interval has no non-trivial subgroups of index less than \(2^\omega\). He also gives a proof of the result, proved in [\textit{I. Ben Yaacov} et al., Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 365, No. 7, 3877--3897 (2013; Zbl 1295.03026)] that every homomorphism of \(\mathrm{Aut}( [0, 1], \lambda )\) to any separable group is continuous.
