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…

In this work we analyze some topological properties of the remainder $\partial M:=\beta_s^* M\setminus M$ of the semialgebraic Stone-C\v{e}ch compactification $\beta_s^* M$ of a semialgebraic set $M\subset{\mathbb R}^m$ in order to…

A Tychonoff space $X$ is called $\kappa$-pseudocompact if for every continuous mapping $f$ of $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^\kappa$ the image $f(X)$ is compact. This notion generalizes pseudocompactness and gives a stratification of spaces lying…

In the presence of suitable power spaces, compactness of $\mathbf{X}$ can be characterized as the singleton $\{X\}$ being open in the space $\mathcal{O}(\mathbf{X})$ of open subsets of $\mathbf{X}$. Equivalently, this means that universal…

In a recent paper O. Pavlov proved the following two interesting resolvability results: (1) If a space $X$ satisfies $\Delta(X) > \ps(X)$ then $X$ is maximally resolvable. (2) If a $T_3$-space $X$ satisfies $\Delta(X) > \pe(X)$ then $X$ is…

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…

An $\omega_1$-compact space is a space in which every closed discrete subspace is countable. We give various general conditions under which a locally compact, $\omega_1$-compact space is $\sigma$-countably compact, i.e., the union of…

Let $X$ be a space. A space $Y$ is called an extension of $X$ if $Y$ contains $X$ as a dense subspace. For an extension $Y$ of $X$ the subspace $Y\backslash X$ of $Y$ is called the remainder of $Y$. Two extensions of $X$ are said to be…

Generalizing de Vries Compactification Theorem and strengthening Leader Local Compactification Theorem, we describe the partially ordered set $(\LL(X),\le)$ of all (up to equivalence) locally compact Hausdorff extensions of a Tychonoff…

A well ordering < of a topological space X is "left-separating" if $\{x'\in X: x'< x\}$ is closed in X for any x in X. A space is "left-separated" if it has a left-separating well-ordering. The left-separating type, $ord_l(X)$, of a…

A novel selection principle was introduced by Dorantes-Aldama and Shakhmatov: a topological space $X$ is termed {\em selectively pseudocompact} if for any sequence $(U_n:n\in {\omega})$ of pairwise disjoint non-empty open sets of $X$, one…

We prove that the meromorphic continuations of the Ruelle and Selberg zeta functions considered by Bunke and Olbrich are of finite order not larger than the dimension of the underlaying compact, odd-dimensional, locally symmetric space.

We prove pseudocompactness of a Tychonoff space $X$ and the space $\mathcal{P}(X)$ of Radon probability measures on it with the weak topology under the condition that the Stone-\v{C}ech compactification of the space $\mathcal{P}(X)$ is…

We prove that an open set $D$ in $\C^n$ is pseudoconvex if and only if for any $z\in D$ the largest balanced domain centered at $z$ and contained in $D$ is pseudoconvex, and consider analogues of that characterization in the linearly convex…

Let $G$ be a group and let $X$ be a transitive $G$-space. We classify the subsets of $X$ with respect to a translation invariant ideal $\mathcal{J}$ in the Boolean algebra of all subsets of $X$, introduce and apply the relative…

A space $X$ is said to be $\kappa$-resolvable (resp. almost $\kappa$-resolvable) if it contains $\kappa$ dense sets that are pairwise disjoint (resp. almost disjoint over the ideal of nowhere dense subsets). $X$ is maximally resolvable iff…

Let $\sum (X)$ be the collection of subalgebras of $C(X)$ containing $C^{*}(X)$, where $X$ is a Tychonoff space. For any $A(X)\in \sum(X)$ there is associated a subset $\upsilon_{A}(X)$ of $\beta X$ which is an $A$-analogue of the Hewitt…

We prove that many completeness properties coincide in metric spaces, precompact groups and dense subgroups of products of separable metric groups. We apply these results to function spaces C_p(X,G) of G-valued continuous functions on a…

We show in ZF that: (i) Every subcompact metrizable space is completely metrizable, and every completely metrizable space is countably subcompact. (ii) A metrizable space X=(X,T) is countably compact iff it is countably subcompact relative…

Every topological group $G$ has some natural compactifications which can be a useful tool of studying $G$. We discuss the following constructions: (1) the greatest ambit $S(G)$ is the compactification corresponding to the algebra of all…
