We use the ultrafilter-convergence axiomatics for topological spaces to motivate in detail a gentle categorical introduction, first to Barr's Set-based relational T-algebras, and then to Burroni's T-preorders internal to a category C, here…

For a separable locally compact but not compact metrizable space $X$, let $\alpha X = X \cup \{x_\infty\}$ be the one-point compactification with the point at infinity $x_\infty$. We denote by $EM(X)$ the space consisting of admissible…

We present an example of a zero-dimensional $F$-space that is not strongly zero-dimensional.

$c$-realcompact spaces are introduced by Karamzadeh and Keshtkar in Quaest. Math. 41(8), 2018, 1135-1167. We offer a characterization of these spaces $X$ via $c$-stable family of closed sets in $X$ by showing that $X$ is $c$-realcompact if…

In this paper, we have proved that for each cardinal number $\lambda$ such that $\lambda=\lambda^{\aleph_0}$ a metric space of weight $\lambda$ admits a bijective continuous mapping onto a Banach space of weight $\lambda$. Then, we get that…

This paper concerns the compactness and separability properties of the normed Boolean algebras (N.B.A.) with respect to topology generated by a distance equal to the square root of a measure of symmetric difference between two elements. The…

The $Golomb$ $space$ (resp. the $Kirch$ $space$) is the set $\mathbb N$ of positive integers endowed with the topology generated by the base consisting of arithmetic progressions $a+b\mathbb N_0=\{a+bn:n\ge 0\}$ where $a\in\mathbb N$ and…

Let $p\in[1,\infty]$ and $F:\mathbf{Set}\to\mathbf{Set}$ be a functor with finite supports in the category $\mathbf{Set}$ of sets. Given a non-empty metric space $(X,d_X)$, we introduce the distance $d^p_{FX}$ on the functor-space $FX$ as…

The $Golomb$ $space$ $\mathbb N_\tau$ is the set $\mathbb N$ of positive integers endowed with the topology $\tau$ generated by the base consisting of arithmetic progressions $\{a+bn:n\ge 0\}$ with coprime $a,b$. We prove that the Golomb…

In this paper we discuss the notion of completeness of topologized posets and survey some recent results on closedness properties of complete topologized semilattices.

Let $C(X)$ be the set of all real valued continuous functions on a metric space $(X,d)$. Caserta introduced the topology of strong Whitney convergence on bornology for $C(X)$ in [A. Caserta, Strong Whitney convergence, Filomat, 2012], which…

This article initiates the study of topological transcendental fields $\FF$ which are subfields of the topological field $\CC$ of all complex numbers such that $\FF$ consists of only rational numbers and a nonempty set of transcendental…

We deeply study retractions associated to suitable models in compact spaces admitting a retractional skeleton and find several interesting consequences. Most importantly, we provide a new characterization of Valdivia compacta using the…

The main result of this paper is that, under PFA, for every {\em regular} space $X$ with $F(X) = \omega$ we have $|X| \le w(X)^\omega$; in particular, $w(X) \le \mathfrak{c}$ implies $|X| \le \mathfrak{c}$. This complements numerous prior…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. Then for every $G$-space $X$ the maximal $G$-proximity $\beta_G$ can be characterized by the maximal topological proximity $\beta$ as follows: $$ A \ \overline{\beta_G} \ B \Leftrightarrow \exists V \in…

In this paper, we defined two new games - the mildly Menger game and the compact-clopen game. In a zero-dimensional space, the Menger game is equivalent to the mildly Menger game and the compact-open game is equivalent to the compact-clopen…

In a previuos paper the author asked if there exists a one-dimensional space $X$ that is not almost zero-dimensional, such that the dimension of the hyperspace of compact subsets of $X$ is one-dimensional. In this short note we give…

Erd\H{o}s space $\mathfrak{E}$ and complete Erd\H{o}s space $\mathfrak{E}_c$ have been previously shown to have topological characterizations. In this paper, we provide a topological characterization of the topological space…

In this paper we examine two basic topological properties of partial metric spaces, namely compactness and completeness. Our main result claims that in these spaces compactness is equivalent to sequential compactness. We also show that…

We prove that an almost zero-dimensional space $X$ is an Erd\H{o}s space factor if and only if $X$ has a Sierpi\'{n}ski stratification of C-sets. We apply this characterization to spaces which are countable unions of C-set Erd\H{o}s space…
