Starting with a very simple proof of Frol'\i k's theorem on homeomorphisms of extremally disconnected spaces, we show how this theorem implies a well known result of Malychin: that every extremally disconnected topological group contains an open and closed subgroup, consisting of elements of order $2$. We also apply Frol'\i k's theorem to obtain some further theorems on the structure of extremally disconnected topological groups and of semitopological groups with continuous inverse. In particular, every Lindelof extremally disconnected semitopological group with continuous inverse and with square roots is countable, and every extremally disconnected topological field is discrete.
