General Topology
The goal of this article is to introduce some beautiful known riddles in intuitive topology; hoping to make at least some fun for the reader.
We prove that the Khovanov homology of alternating knots and 2-component links is equal (as a singly graded group) to the singular homology of a certain space of trace- free, binary dihedral representations of the link group. More…
In this paper, we extend a fixed point theorem due to Ciric to a cone metric space.
We establish coupled fixed point theorems for contraction involving rational expressions in partially ordered metric spaces.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of partially ordered {\epsilon}-chainable metric spaces and we derive new coupled fixed point theorems for uniformly locally contractive mappings on such spaces.
A theorem of A. Weil asserts that a topological group embeds as a (dense) subgroup of a locally compact group if and only if it contains a non-empty precompact open set; such groups are called locally precompact. Within the class of locally…
For an uncountable cardinal \tau and a subset S of an abelian group G, the following conditions are equivalent: (i) |{ns:s\in S}|\ge \tau for all integers n\ge 1; (ii) there exists a group homomorphism \pi:G\to T^{2^\tau} such that \pi(S)…
We denote by C_p(X,G) the group of all continuous functions from a space X to a topological group G endowed with the topology of pointwise convergence. We say that spaces X and Y are G-equivalent provided that the topological groups…
Algebraic operations are understood as topologiztion of algebra. They become an example of simplest convergence space. In our article the convergence is a arbitrary multivalued appointment. The continuity of some mapping between two…
Under $(\diamondsuit^*)$ we construct a locally countable, locally compact, 0-dimensional $T_2$ space $X$ of size $\omg$ which is aD however not even linearly D. This consistently answers a question of Arhangel'skii, whether aD implies D.…
In this paper, we present families of quasi-convex sequences converging to zero in the circle group T, and the group J_3 of 3-adic integers. These sequences are determined by an increasing sequences of integers. For an increasing sequence…
For a Banach space $B$ and for a class $\A$ of its bounded closed retracts, endowed with the Hausdorff metric, we prove that retractions on elements $A \in \A$ can be chosen to depend continuously on $A$, whenever nonconvexity of each $A…
Given any m-dimensional dilation matrix A with rational eigenvalues, we demonstrate the existence of a digit set D such that the attractor T(A,D) of the iterated function system generated by A and D is connected. We give an easily verified…
The famous Prohorov theorem for Radon probability measures is generalized in terms of usco mappings. In the case of completely metrizable spaces this is achieved by applying a classical Michael result on the existence of usco selections for…
The Noetherian type of a space X, Nt(X), is the least cardinal kappa such that X has a base B such that every element of the base is contained in less than kappa many elements of the base. Denote X the space obtained from 2^{aleph_omega} by…
In this article it is shown that there is no continuous bijection from $\mathbb{R}^n$ onto $\mathbb{R}^2$ for $n\neq 2$ by an elementary method. This proof is based on showing that for any cardinal number $\beta\leq 2^{\aleph_0}$, there is…
A closed form formula (generating function) for the Euler characteristic of the configuration space of $\scriptstyle n$ particles in a simplicial complex is given.
It is showed that the class of all compact Hausdorff and $I$-favorable spaces is adequate for the class of skeletal maps.
In this short note we give an answer to the following question. Let $X$ be a locally compact metric space with group of isometries $G$. Let $\{g_i\}$ be a net in $G$ for which $g_ix$ converges to $y$, for some $x,y\in X$. What can we say…
In this paper we investigate the functors of OH of positively homogenous functionals and OS of semiadditive functionals. We show that OH(X) is AR if and only if X is openly generated, and OS(X) is AR if and only if X is an openly generated…
