By de Vries duality, the category of compact Hausdorff spaces is dually equivalent to the category of de Vries algebras. In our recent article, we have extended de Vries duality to completely regular spaces by generalizing de Vries algebras…
The main purpose of this paper is to study \emph{$e$-separable spaces}, originally introduced by Kurepa as $K_0'$ spaces; we call a space $X$ $e$-separable iff $X$ has a dense set which is the union of countably many closed discrete sets.…
We say that a metrizable space $M$ is a Krasinkiewicz space if any map from a metrizable compactum $X$ into $M$ can be approximated by Krasinkiewicz maps (a map $g\colon X\to M$ is Krasinkiewicz provided every continuum in $X$ is either…
Let $X$ be a separable Banach space, $Y$ be a Banach space and $\Lambda$ be a subset of the dual group of a given compact metrizable abelian group. We prove that if $X^*$ and $Y$ have the type I-$\Lambda$-RNP (resp. type II-$\Lambda$-RNP)…
A class of topological spaces is projective (resp., $\omega$-projective) if and only if projective systems of spaces (resp., with a countable cofinal subset of indices) in the class are still in the class. A certain number of classes of…
We define and study the free topological vector space $\mathbb{V}(X)$ over a Tychonoff space $X$. We prove that $\mathbb{V}(X)$ is a $k_\omega$-space if and only if $X$ is a $k_\omega$-space. If $X$ is infinite, then $\mathbb{V}(X)$…
We consider the Banach space consisting of continuous functions from an arbitrary uncountable compact metric space, $X$, into $\mathbb{R}^n$. The key question is `what is the generic dimension of $f(X)$?' and we consider two different…
Orderability, weak orderability and the existence of continuous weak selections on filter spaces (i.e., spaces with a single non-isolated point) and their products are discussed. We prove that a closed continuous image X of a suborderable…
We study the complexity of the space $C^*_p(X)$ of bounded continuous functions with the topology of pointwise convergence. We are allowed to use descriptive set theoretical methods, since for a separable metrizable space $X$, the…
We extend the definition of Bockstein basis $\sigma(G)$ to nilpotent groups $G$. A metrizable space $X$ is called a {\it Bockstein space} if $\dim_G(X) = \sup\{\dim_H(X) | H\in \sigma(G)\}$ for all Abelian groups $G$. Bockstein First…
We show that capacity can be computed with locally Lipschitz functions in locally complete and separable metric spaces. Further, we show that if $(X,d,\mu)$ is a locally complete and separable metric measure space, then continuous functions…
Let $(X, d)$ be a compact metric space and let $\mathcal{M}(X)$ denote the space of all finite signed Borel measures on $X$. Define $I \colon \mathcal{M}(X) \to \R$ by $I(mu) = \int_X \int_X d(x,y) d\mu(x) d\mu(y)$, and set $M(X) = \sup…
A topological space $X$ is called hereditarily supercompact if each closed subspace of X is supercompact. By a combined result of Bula, Nikiel, Tuncali, Tymchatyn, and Rudin, each monotonically normal compact Hausdorff space is hereditarily…
The Kestelman-Borwein-Ditor Theorem asserts that a non-negligible subset of $\mathbb{R}$ which is Baire (=has the Baire property, BP) or measurable is shift-compact: it contains some subsequence of any null sequence to within translation by…
For a Tychonoff space $X$, we will denote by $USC_{p}(X)$ ($B_1(X)$) a set of all real-valued upper semicontinuous functions (a set of all Baire functions of class 1) defined on $X$ endowed with the pointwise convergence topology. In this…
We give new characterizations of spaces $X$ which are $k_\mathbb{R}$-spaces or $s_\mathbb{R}$-spaces. Applying the obtained results we provide some sufficient and necessary conditions on $X$ for which $C_p(X)$ is a $k_\mathbb{R}$-space or…
By classical results of Hurewicz, Kechris and Saint-Raymond, an analytic subset of a Polish space $X$ is covered by a $K_\sigma$ subset of $X$ if and only if it does not contain a closed-in-$X$ subset homeomorphic to the Baire space…
In this paper we introduce a realcompactification for any metric space (X, d), defined by means of the family of all its real-valued uniformly continuous functions. We call it the Samuel realcompactification, according to the well known…
We study ideals $\mathcal{I}$ on $\mathbb{N}$ satisfying the following Baire-type property: if $X$ is a complete metric space and $\{X_{A} \colon A \in \mathcal{I} \}$ is a family of nowhere dense subsets of $X$ with $X_{A} \subset X_{B}$…
In this paper we examine two basic topological properties of partial metric spaces, namely compactness and completeness. Our main result claims that in these spaces compactness is equivalent to sequential compactness. We also show that…
