Two classes of topological spaces are introduced on which every probability Radon measure possesses a uniformly distributed sequence or a uniformly tight uniformly distributed sequence. It is shown that these classes are stable under…

We investigate the behavior of functional countability and exponential separability in products and subspaces of topological spaces. We solve a problem of Tkachuk by showing that the product of functionally countable pseudocompact spaces is…

A space $X$ is called {\it selectively pseudocompact} if for each sequence $(U_{n})_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of pairwise disjoint nonempty open subsets of $X$ there is a sequence $(x_{n})_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of points in $X$ such that $cl_X(\{x_n…

We will show that, consistently, every uncountable set can be continuously mapped onto a non measure zero set, while there exists an uncountable set whose all continuous images into a Polish space are meager.

Discretization of the uniform norm of functions from a given finite dimensional subspace of continuous functions is studied. We pay special attention to the case of trigonometric polynomials with frequencies from an arbitrary finite set…

A topology on a nonempty set $X$ specifies a natural subset of $\mathcal{P}(X)$. By identifying $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{P}(X))$ with the totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space $2^{\mathcal{P}(X)}$, the lattice $Top(X)$ of all topologies…

Morse spacetime is a model of singular Lorentzian manifold, built upon a Morse function which serves as a global time function outside its critical points. The Borde-Sorkin conjecture states that a Morse spacetime is causally continuous if…

A change of spatial topology in a causal, compact spacetime cannot occur when the metric is globally Lorentzian. One can however construct a causal metric from a Riemannian metric and a Morse function on the background cobordism manifold,…

We show that a locally symmetric space of noncompact type and with finite volume is quasi-isometric to the euclidean cone over a finite simplicial complex. A detailed analysis of metric properties yields a proof of a conjecture of Siegel.

For a continuous map $f$ from the real line (half-open interval $[0,1)$) into itself let ent(f) denote the supremum of topological entropies of $f|_K$, where $K$ runs over all compact $f$-invariant subsets of $\mathbb{R}$ ($[0,1)$,…

We investigate conditions under which a co-computably enumerable closed set in a computable metric space is computable and prove that in each locally computable computable metric space each co-computably enumerable compact manifold with…

Let $\Sigma$ be a compact quotient of $T_4$, the Lie group of $4 \times 4$ upper triangular matrices with unity along the diagonal. The Lie algebra $t_4$ of $T_4$ has the standard basis $\{X_{ij}\}$ of matrices with $0$ everywhere but in…

Let T be the family of open subsets of a topological space (not necessarily Hausdorff or even T_0). We prove that if T has a countable base and is not countable, then T has cardinality at least continuum.

We say that a topological space X is selectively sequentially pseudocompact (SSP for short) if for every sequence (U_n) of non-empty open subsets of X, one can choose a point x_n in U_n for every n in such a way that the sequence (x_n) has…

A convex subset X of a linear topological space is called compactly convex if there is a continuous compact-valued map $\Phi:X\to exp(X)$ such that $[x,y]\subset\Phi(x)\cup \Phi(y)$ for all $x,y\in X$. We prove that each convex subset of…

A topological space $X$ is a $\Delta$-space (or $X \in \Delta$) if for any decreasing sequence $\{A_n : n < \omega\}$ of subsets of $X$ with empty intersection there is a (decreasing) sequence $\{U_n : n < \omega\}$ of open sets with empty…

We construct harmonic Riemannian submersions that are retractions from symmetric spaces of noncompact type onto their rank-one totally geodesic subspaces. Among the consequences, we prove the existence of a non-constant, globally defined…

It is shown that if a $T_2$ topological space contains an uncountable closed discrete set, then $\omega_1 \times (\omega_1 + 1)$ embeds as a closed subspace of $(CL(X),\tau_F)$, the hyperspace of nonempty closed subsets of $X$ equipped with…

We consider a countably generated and uniformly closed algebra of bounded functions. We assume that there is a lower semicontinuous, with respect to the supremum norm, quadratic form and that normal contractions operate in a certain sense.…

We construct a countable inductive limit of weighted Banach spaces of holomorphic functions, which is not a topological subspace of the corresponding weighted inductive limit of spaces of continuous functions. The main step of our…
