Let $C$ be a convex subset of a locally convex space. We provide optimal approximate fixed point results for sequentially continuous maps $f\colon C\to\bar{C}$. First we prove that if $f(C)$ is totally bounded, then it has an approximate…

We introduce two new algebraic invariants, the (co)homological distances between continuous maps, which provide computable lower bounds for the homotopic distance and strictly refine the classical cup-length estimates. We then define the…

The space of constructible functions form a dense subspace of the space of generalized valuations. In this note we prove a somewhat stronger property that the sequential closure, taken sufficiently many (in fact, infinitely many) times, of…

We give new characterizations of spaces $X$ which are $k_\mathbb{R}$-spaces or $s_\mathbb{R}$-spaces. Applying the obtained results we provide some sufficient and necessary conditions on $X$ for which $C_p(X)$ is a $k_\mathbb{R}$-space or…

Let X be a smooth, projective variety over the field of complex numbers. On the space H of its rational cohomology of degree i we have the arithmetic filtration F^p. On the other hand, on the space of cohomology of degree i of X with…

A map $f:X\to Y$ between topological spaces is defined to be {\em scatteredly continuous} if for each subspace $A\subset X$ the restriction $f|A$ has a point of continuity. We show that for a function $f:X\to Y$ from a perfectly paracompact…

We study countably piecewise continuous, piecewise monotone interval maps. We establish a necessary and sufficient criterion for the existence of a nondecreasing semiconjugacy to a map of constant slope in terms of the existence of an…

Stasheff showed that if a map between H-spaces is an H-map, then the suspension of the map is extendable to a map between cprojective planes of the H-spaces. Stahseff also proved the converse under the assumption that the multiplication of…

Menger's conjecture that Menger spaces are /sigma-compact is false; it is true for analytic subspaces of Polish spaces and undecidable for more complex definable subspaces of Polish spaces. For non-metrizable spaces, analytic Menger spaces…

We investigate when does the Repov\v{s}-Semenov Splitting problem for selections have an affirmative solution for continuous set-valued mappings in finite-dimensional Banach spaces. We prove that this happens when images of set-valued…

Given a code from a shift space to an irreducible sofic shift, any two of the following three conditions -- open, constant-to-one, (right or left) closing -- imply the third. If the range is not sofic, then the same result holds when…

If $f$ is a continuous selection for the Vietoris hyperspace $\mathscr{F}(X)$ of the nonempty closed subsets of a space $X$, then the point $f(X)\in X$ is not as arbitrary as it might seem at first glance. In this paper, we will…

Let $f:X\to X$ be a continuous map on a compact metric space with finite topological entropy. Further, we assume that the entropy map $\mu\mapsto h_\mu(f)$ is upper semi-continuous. It is well-known that this implies the continuity of the…

Hurewicz proved completely metrizable Menger spaces are /sigma-compact. We extend this to Cech-complete Menger spaces and consistently to projective Menger metrizable spaces. On the other hand, it is consistent that there is a co-analytic…

This paper aims to introduce a filtration analysis of sampled maps based on persistent homology, providing a new method for reconstructing the underlying maps. The key idea is to extend the definition of homology induced maps of…

In this paper, we characterize stratifiable (or semi-stratifiable) spaces, and monotonically countably paracompact (or monotonically countably metacompact) spaces by expansions of locally upper bounded semi-continuous poset-valued maps.…

A continuous frame is a family of vectors in a Hilbert space which allows reproductions of arbitrary elements by continuous superpositions. Associated to a given continuous frame we construct certain Banach spaces. Many classical function…

We call a function $f: X\to Y$ $P$-preserving if, for every subspace $A \subset X$ with property $P$, its image $f(A)$ also has property $P$. Of course, all continuous maps are both compactness- and connectedness-preserving and the natural…

In this paper, we deal with a hyperspace selection problem in the setting of connected spaces. We present two solutions of this problem illustrating the difference between selections for the nonempty closed sets, and those for the at most…

We study the complexity of the space $C^*_p(X)$ of bounded continuous functions with the topology of pointwise convergence. We are allowed to use descriptive set theoretical methods, since for a separable metrizable space $X$, the…
