On continuous homomorphisms from Alexandroff paratopological groups into topological groups

Alexandroff paratopological groups provide a natural setting in which order-theoretic and algebraic properties interact. In this short note we prove obstruction results when considering continuous homomorphisms from Alexandroff paratopological groups into topological groups. Particularly and, as a consequence of these results, we provide an alternative proof of the fact that the only connected Alexandroff topological group is the one that carries the trivial topology.
