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,...,…

For a compactification $\alpha X$ of a Tychonoff space $X$, the algebra of all functions $f\in C(X)$ that are continuously extendable over $% \alpha X$ is denoted by $C_{\alpha}(X)$. It is shown that, in a model of $\textbf{ZF}$, it may…

This article deals with the lower compactness property of a sequence of integrands and the use of this key notion in various domains: convergence theory, optimal control, non-smooth analysis. First about the interchange of the weak…

For any infinite subset $X$ of the rationals and a subset $F \subseteq X$ which has no isolated points in $X$ we construct a function $f: X \to X$ such that $f(f(x))=x$ for each $x\in X$ and $F $ is the set of discontinuity points of $f$.

Given a countable group $G$ and two subshifts $X$ and $Y$ over $G$, a continuous, shift-commuting map $\phi : X \to Y$ is called a homomorphism. Our main result states that if every finitely generated subgroup of $G$ has polynomial growth,…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a difference of convex (DC, for short) functions, defined on a locally convex space, to be Lipschitz continuous. Our criterion relies on the intersections of the "epsilon-subdifferentials of…

We investigate the differentiability properties of real-valued quasiconvex functions f defined on a separable Banach space X. Continuity is only assumed to hold at the points of a dense subset. If so, this subset is automatically residual.…

A function f is continuous iff the PRE-image f^{-1}[V] of any open set V is open again. Dual to this topological property, f is called OPEN iff the IMAGE f[U] of any open set U is open again. Several classical Open Mapping Theorems in…

We prove an extension theorem (with non-tangential limits) for vector-valued Baire one functions. Moreover, at every point where the function is continuous (or bounded), the continuity (or boundedness) is preserved. More precisely: Let $H$…

A subset $B \subset Y$ is constructible if it is an element of the smallest family that contains all open sets and is stable under finite intersections and complements. A function $f : X \to Y$ is said to be piece-wise closed if $X$ can be…

A function $f$ defined on a 2-normed space $ (X,||.,.||)$ is ward continuous if it preserves quasi-Cauchy sequences where a sequence $(x_n)$ of points in $X$ is called quasi-Cauchy if $lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}||\Delta x_{n},z||=0$ for every…

Any Lipschitz map $f : M \to N$ between two pointed metric spaces may be extended in a unique way to a bounded linear operator $\widehat{f} : \mathcal F(M) \to \mathcal F(N)$ between their corresponding Lipschitz-free spaces. In this paper,…

Let ${\mathfrak F}$ be a category of subanalytic subsets of real analytic manifolds that is closed under basic set-theoretical and basic topological operations. Let $M$ be a real analytic manifold and denote ${\mathfrak F}(M)$ the family of…

Let E be a topological space and F a uniform space. We introduce a new topology (in fact a uniform structure) called the V-congergence on the space of applications from E to F such that C(E,F) is closed for this topology and the restriction…

A necessary and sufficient condition for fractional Orlicz-Sobolev spaces to be continuously embedded into $L^\infty(\mathbb R^n)$ is exhibited. Under the same assumption, any function from the relevant fractional-order spaces is shown to…

We introduce and study adhesive spaces. Using this concept we obtain a characterization of stable Baire maps $f:X\to Y$ of the class $\alpha$ for wide classes of topological spaces. In particular, we prove that for a topological space $X$…

Let $(\mathcal{X}, \rho, \mu)$ be a metric measure space of homogeneous type which supports a certain Poincar\'e inequality. Denote by the symbol $\mathcal{C}_{\mathrm{c}}^\ast(\mathcal{X})$ the space of all continuous functions $f$ with…

Some new classes of compacta $K$ are considered for which $C(K)$ endowed with the pointwise topology has a countable cover by sets of small local norm--diameter.

A function from Baire space to the natural numbers is called formally continuous if it is induced by a morphism between the corresponding formal spaces. We compare formal continuity to two other notions of continuity on Baire space working…

Let $T:Y\to X$ be a bounded linear operator between two normed spaces. We characterize compactness of $T$ in terms of differentiability of the Lipschitz functions defined on $X$ with values in another normed space $Z$. Furthermore, using a…
