Duparc introduced a two-player game for a function $f$ between zero-dimensional Polish spaces in which Player II has a winning strategy iff $f$ is of Baire class 1. We generalize this result by defining a game for an arbitrary function $f :…

We study selection principles related to bornological covers using the notion of ideals. We consider ideals $\mathcal I$ and $\mathcal J$ on $\omega$ and standard ideal orderings $KB, K$. Relations between cardinality of a base of a…

Given a metric space $X$, we consider certain families of functions $f:X\to\mathbb{R}$ having the hereditary oscillation property HSOP and the hereditary continuous restriction property HCRP on large sets. When $X$ is Polish, among them…

For a topological space $X$ and a point $x \in X$, consider the following game -- related to the property of $X$ being countably tight at $x$. In each inning $n\in\omega$, the first player chooses a set $A_n$ that clusters at $x$, and then…

Generalizing a result of Kiss, we provide a game that characterizes Baire class 1 functions between arbitrary separable metrizable spaces. We show that the determinacy of our game is equivalent to a generalization of Baire's grand theorem,…

We demonstrate that a reproducing kernel Hilbert or Banach space of functions on a separable absolute Borel space or an analytic subset of a Polish space is separable if it possesses a Borel measurable feature map.

We prove that a player $\alpha$ has a winning strategy in the Banach--Mazur game on a space $X$ if and only if $X$ is F-Y countably $\pi$-domain representable. We show that Choquet complete spaces are F-Y countably domain representable. We…

We consider the following two-player game played on a separable, infinite-dimensional Banach space X. Player S chooses a positive integer k_1 and a finite-codimensional subspace X_1 of X. Then player P chooses x_1 in the unit sphere of X_1.…

We develop the semifilter approach to the classical Menger and Hurewicz covering properties and show that the small cardinal g is a lower bound of the additivity number of the family of Menger subspaces of the Baire space, and under u< g…

This paper deals with different concepts for characterizing the size of mathematical objects. A game theoretic investigation and generalization of two size concepts, which can both be formulated in topological terms, is provided: the so…

In this note various geometric properties of a Banach space $X$ are characterized by means of weaker corresponding geometric properties involving an ultrapower $X^\mathcal{U}$. The characterizations do not depend on the particular choice of…

It is known that both the Menger and Hurewicz property of a Tychonoff space $X$ can be described by the way $X$ is placed in its \v{C}ech-Stone compactification $\beta X$. We provide analogous characterizations for the projective versions…

Property($M$) in separable Banach spaces has played an important role in metric fixed point theory. This paper explores some of the Banach space properties that can be associated with Property($M$) and Property($M^*$).

Let $X$ be a topological space. Let $X_0 \subseteq X$ be a second countable subspace. Also, assume that $X$ is first countable at any point of $X_0$. Then we provide some conditions under which we ensure that $X_0$ is not Baire.

W. Hurewicz proved that analytic Menger sets of reals are $\sigma$-compact and that co-analytic completely Baire sets of reals are completely metrizable. It is natural to try to generalize these theorems to projective sets. This has…

We prove a new selection theorem for multivalued mappings of C-space. Using this theorem we prove extension dimensional version of Hurewicz theorem for a closed mapping $f\colon X\to Y$ of $k$-space $X$ onto paracompact $C$-space $Y$: if…

Let $G$ be an infinite locally compact abelian group. If $X$ is Banach space, we show that if every bounded Fourier multiplier $T$ on $L^2(G)$ has the property that $T\ot Id_X$ is bounded on $L^2(G,X)$ then the Banach space $X$ is…

Infinite games (in the form of Gale-Stewart games) are studied where a play is a sequence of natural numbers chosen by two players in alternation, the winning condition being a subset of the Baire space $\omega^\omega$. We consider such…

We give topological and game theoretic definitions and theorems nec- essary for defining a Banach-Mazur game, and apply these definitions to formalize the game. We then state and prove two theorems which give necessary conditions for…

The Baire category theorem states that every complete pseudometric space is a Baire space. There are some results in metric spaces which have their analogue in uniform spaces, however this is not one of them. Nonetheless, since the Baire…
