Let $P$ be a finite simplicial comple with underlying space (union of simplices in $P$) $|P|$. Let $Q$ be a subcomplex of $P$. Let $a \geq 0$. Then there exists $K < \infty$, \emph{depending only on $a$ and $Q$,} with the following…

Modifying a construction of W. Marciszewski we prove (in ZFC) that there exists a subspace of the real line $\mathbb{R}$, such that the realcompact space $C_p(X)$ of continuous real-valued functions on $X$ with the pointwise convergence…

Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function. The escaping set $I(f)$ consists of those points that tend to infinity under iteration of $f$. We show that $I(f)$ is not $\sigma$-compact, resolving a question of Rippon from 2009.

In the present paper we establish that the space $\exp_\beta X$ of compact subsets of a Tychonoff space $X$ is superparacompact iff $X$ is so. Further, we prove the Tychonoff map $\exp_{\beta} f:\ \exp_{\beta} X\rightarrow \exp_{\beta} Y$…

We work in set-theory without choice ZF. Denoting by AC(N) the countable axiom of choice, we show in ZF+AC(N) that the closed unit ball of a uniformly convex Banach space is compact in the convex topology (an alternative to the weak…

We give the first example of a locally quasi-convex (even countable reflexive and $k_\omega$) abelian group $G$ which does not admit the strongest compatible locally quasi-convex group topology. Our group $G$ is the Graev free abelian group…

We initiate the study of pointed approximative absolute neighborhood retracts. Our motivation is to generate examples of C*-algebras that behave in unexpected ways with respect to weak semiprojectivity. We consider both weak…

Finite unions of convex sets are a central object of study in discrete and computational geometry. In this paper we initiate a systematic study of complements of such unions -- i.e., sets of the form $S=\mathbb{R}^d \setminus (\cup_{i=1}^n…

In the main result of the paper we extend Rosenthal's characterization of Banach spaces with the Schur property by showing that for a quasi-complete locally convex space $E$ whose separable bounded sets are metrizable the following…

We show that the Morse boundary of a Morse local-to-global group is $\sigma$-compact. Moreover, we show that the converse holds for small cancellation groups. As an application, we show that the Morse boundary of a non-hyperbolic, Morse…

For a nonempty compact subset $\sigma$ in the plane, the space $AC(\sigma)$ is the closure of the space of complex polynomials in two real variables under a particular variation norm. In the classical setting, $AC[0,1]$ contains several…

We show that the free locally convex space $L(\mathbf{s})$ over a convergent sequence $\mathbf{s}$ is not a Mackey space. Consequently $L(\mathbf{s})$ is not a Mackey group that answers negatively a question posed in [4].

An example of a cocomplete abelian category that is not complete is constructed.

It is known that the classical Banach--Stone theorem does not extend to the class of $AC(\sigma)$ spaces of absolutely continuous functions defined on compact subsets of the complex plane. On the other hand, if $\sigma$ is restricted to the…

We study algebraic and topological properties of subsemigroups of the hyperspace exp(G) of non-empty compact subsets of a topological group G endowed with the Vietoris topology and the natural semigroup operation. On this base we prove that…

Let $D_j\subset\Bbb C^{n_j}$ be a pseudoconvex domain and let $A_j\subset D_j$ be a locally pluriregular set, $j=1,...,N$. Put $$ X:=\bigcup_{j=1}^N A_1\times...\times A_{j-1}\times D_j\times A_{j+1}\times ...\times A_N\subset\Bbb…

We prove that the countable product of supercomplete spaces having a countable closed cover consisting of partition-complete subspaces is supercomplete with respect to its metric-fine coreflection. Thus, countable products of…

We examine locally compact normal spaces in models of form PFA(S)[S], in particular characterizing paracompact, countably tight ones as those which include no perfect pre-image of omega_1 and in which all separable closed subspaces are…

This note identifies compact and {\sigma}-compact subsets of probability measures on a class of metric spaces with respect to the weak convergence topology. Moreover, it is shown by an example, that the space of probability measures on a…

Let $S$ be a convex hypersurface (the boundary of a closed convex set $V$ with nonempty interior) in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that $S$ contains no lines if and only if for every open set $U\supset S$ there exists a real-analytic convex…
