The paper introduces the class of O-metric spaces, a novel generalization of metric-type spaces, classifying almost all possible metric types into upward and downward O-metrics. We list some topologies arising from O-metrics and discuss…

A parametric version of Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem, which is proven using the fixed-point index, states that for every continuous mapping $f : (X \times Y) \to Y$, where $X$ is nonempty, compact, and connected subset of a Hausdorff…

Let $X$ be a set and $2^X$ be a set of all subsets of $X$. The necessary and sufficient conditions under which a mapping $X \to 2^X$ is a closure of one-point sets in some $T_0$-space $(X, \tau)$ are described. It is proved that every…

In this paper we introduce the concept of the rectangular metric like spaces, along with its topology and we prove some fixed point theorems under different contraction principles. We introduce the concept of modified metric-like space as…

In this article, we prove the existence of common fixed points for a pair of maps on a $q$-spherically complete $T_0$-ultra-quasi-metric space. The present article is a generalization, in the assymmetric setting of the paper of Rao et…

We give sufficient conditions for the following problem: given a topological space X, a metric space Y, a subspace Z of Y, and a continuous map f from X to Y, is it possible, by applying to f an arbitrarily small perturbation, to ensure…

In this paper we consider several generalizations of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem for G-spaces and apply these results to Tucker type lemmas for G-simplicial complexes and PL-manifolds.

We discuss topological versions of the closed graph theorem, where continuity is inferred from near continuity in tandem with suitable conditions on source or target spaces. We seek internal characterizations of spaces satisfying a closed…

In this paper we are going to prove a very general fixed point theorem for mappings acting in partial metric spaces. In that theorem we impose some conditions on behavior of considered mappings on orbits and a condition relating orbits of…

We examine conditions on a (compact metrizable) space $X$ such that for any space $Y$ and closed subspace $Z$, the set of continuous functions from $Z$ to $X$ which extend to $Y$ is either open or closed in the set of continuous functions…

In this paper, we study the existence of fixed points for mappings defined on complete (compact) metric space (X, d) satisfying a general contractive (contraction) inequality depended on another function. These conditions are analogous to…

Thickenings of a metric space capture local geometric properties of the space. Here we exhibit applications of lower bounding the topology of thickenings of the circle and more generally the sphere. We explain interconnections with the…

We address pairs $(X, Y)$ of metric spaces with the following property: for every mapping $f: X \to Y$ the existence of points $x, y \in X$ with $d(f(x),f(y)) > d(x,y)$ implies the existence of $\widetilde{x}, \widetilde{y}\in X$ for which…

Given a set of points in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^\ell$ with $\ell>1$, the pairwise distances between the points are determined by their spatial location and the metric $d$ that we endow $\mathbb{R}^\ell$ with. Hence, the distance…

The main result of this note is a parametrized version of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem. We show that for a continuous family of Borsuk-Ulam situations, parameterized by points of a compact manifold W, its solution set also depends continuously…

We show that a topometric space $X$ is topometrically isomorphic to a type space of some continuous first-order theory if and only if $X$ is compact and has an open metric (i.e., satisfies that $\{p : d(p,U) < \varepsilon\}$ is open for…

A map $f:X\to Y$ between topological spaces is defined to be {\em scatteredly continuous} if for each subspace $A\subset X$ the restriction $f|A$ has a point of continuity. We show that for a function $f:X\to Y$ from a perfectly paracompact…
