The Baire algebra of a topological space $X$ is the quotient of the algebra of all subsets of $X$ modulo the meager sets. We show that this Boolean algebra can be endowed with a natural closure operator, resulting in a closure algebra which…

According to a folklore characterization of supercompact spaces, a compact Hausdorff space is supercompact if and only if it has a binary closed $k$-network. This characterization suggests to call a topological space $super$ if it has a…

In this work we study the geometry of the unit ball of the space of operators ${\mathcal L}(X,Y^*)$, by considering the projective tensor product $X\hat{\otimes}_{\pi} Y$ as a predual. We prove that if an elementary tensor (rank one…

We prove that, for an arbitrary topological space $X$, the following two conditions are equivalent: (a) Every open cover of $X$ has a finite subset with dense union (b) $X$ is $D$-pseudocompact, for every ultrafilter $D$. Locally, our…

A space X is finite dimensional, locally compact and separable metrizable if and only if X has a finite basic family: continuous functions Phi_1,...,Phi_n of X to the reals, R, such that for all continuous f from X to R there are g_1,...,…

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.

It is an interesting, maybe surprising, fact that different dense subspaces of even "nice" topological spaces can have different densities. So, our aim here is to investigate the set of densities of all dense subspaces of a topological…

Given uniformly homeomorphic metric spaces $X$ and $Y$, it is proved that the hyperspaces $C(X)$ and $C(Y)$ are uniformly homeomorphic, where $C(X)$ denotes the collection of all nonempty closed subsets of $X$, and is endowed with Hausdorff…

A topological space $G$ is said to be a {\it rectifiable space} provided that there are a surjective homeomorphism $\phi :G\times G\rightarrow G\times G$ and an element $e\in G$ such that $\pi_{1}\circ \phi =\pi_{1}$ and for every $x\in G$…

If $f : X\mapsto Y$ is a function having Baire property from a metric space $X$ into a separable metric space $Y$ , then $f$ is continuous except on a set of first category. Kuratowski asked whether the condition of separability could be…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and suppose $Y\subseteq X$ is a Banach space compactly embedded into $X$, and $(a_k)$ is a weakly null sequence of functionals in $X^*$. Then there exists a sequence $\{\varepsilon_n\} \searrow 0$ such that…

In this paper we present a few properties of $K$-partitions, which are partitions of Baire spaces such that all subfamilies of such a partition sum to a set with the Baire property. Among the result proven we have general existence result…

We call a space $X$ {\it weakly linearly Lindel\"of} if for any family $\mathcal{U}$ of non-empty open subsets of $X$ of regular uncountable cardinality $\kappa$, there exists a point $x\in X$ such that every neighborhood of $x$ meets…

A remarkable theorem of R. C. James is the following: suppose that $X$ is a Banach space and $C \subseteq X$ is a norm bounded, closed and convex set such that every linear functional $x^* \in X^*$ attains its supremum on $C$; then $C$ is 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…

It is shown that, assuming the Continuum Hypothesis, compact Hausdorff space of weight at most $\mathfrak{c}$ is a remainder in a soft compactification of $\mathbb{N}$. We also exhibit an example of a compact space of weight $\aleph_1$ --…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $\mu$ a probability measure. A set $K \subseteq L^1(\mu,X)$ is said to be a $\delta\mathcal{S}$-set if it is uniformly integrable and for every $\delta>0$ there is a weakly compact set $W \subseteq X$ such that…

The aim of this note is to obtain results about when the norm of a projective tensor product is strongly subdifferentiable. We prove that if $X\hat{\otimes}_\pi Y$ is strongly subdifferentiable and either $X$ or $Y$ has the metric…

A completely regular Hausdorff space $X$ is called a $WCF$-space if every pair of disjoint cozero-sets in $X$ can be separated by two disjoint $Z^{\circ}$-sets. The class of $WCF$-spaces properly contains both the class of $F$-spaces and…

Given a continuum $X$, let $C(X)$ denote the hyperspace of all subcontinua of $X$. In this paper we study the Vietoris hyperspace $NC^{*}(X)=\{ A \in C(X):X\setminus A\text{ is connected}\}$ when $X$ is a finite graph or a dendrite; in…
