Let $X$ be a topological space and $f:X\to X$ a bijection. Let ${\mathcal C}(X,f)$ be a set of integers such that an integer $n$ is an element of ${\mathcal C}(X,f)$ if and only if the bijection $f^n:X\to X$ is continuous. A subset $S$ of…

If $X$ is a (topological) space, the $n$th finite subset space of $X$, denoted by $X(n)$, consists of $n$-point subsets of $X$ (i.e., nonempty subsets of cardinality at most $n$) with the quotient topology induced by the unordering map…

We give two examples of a finitely generated subgroup of a free group and a subset, closed in the profinite topology of a free group, such that their product is not closed in the profinite topology of a free group.

Let $\pi: Y\rightarrow X$ be a continuous surjection between compact Hausdorff spaces $Y$ and $X$ which is irreducible in the sense that if $F\subsetneq Y$ is closed, then $\pi(F)\neq X$. We exhibit isomorphisms between various Boolean…

We study definably complete locally o-minimal expansions of ordered groups in this paper. A definable continuous function defined on a closed, bounded and definable set behave like a continuous function on a compact set. We demonstrate…

We prove the following instance of a conjecture stated in arXiv:1103.4770. Let $G$ be an abelian semialgebraic group over a real closed field $R$ and let $X$ be a semialgebraic subset of $G$. Then the group generated by $X$ contains a…

Given a set $X$ and a family $G$ of self-maps of $X$, we study the problem of the existence of a non-discrete Hausdorff topology on $X$ with respect to which all functions $f\in G$ are continuous. A topology on $X$ with this property is…

Let $X$ be a Banach space with a separable dual $X^{*}$. Let $Y\subset X$ be a closed subspace, and $f:Y\to\mathbb{R}$ a $C^{1}$-smooth function. Then we show there is a $C^{1}$ extension of $f$ to $X$.

This expository article proves some results of Ferguson, on the approximation of continuous functions on a compact subset of R by polynomials with integral coefficients.

Let $X$ be a smooth compact manifold and $v$ a vector field on $X$ which admits a smooth function $f: X \to \mathbf R$ such that $df(v) > 0$. Let $\partial X$ be the boundary of $X$. We denote by $C^\infty(X)$ the algebra of smooth…

Algebraically constructible functions connect real algebra with the topology of algebraic sets. In this survey we present some history, definitions, properties, and algebraic characterizations of algebraically constructible functions, and a…

Under very general conditions it is shown that if $A$ is a uniform algebra generated by real-analytic functions, then either $A$ consists of all continuous functions or else there exists a disc on which every function in $A$ is holomorphic.…

A function $f$ on a topological space is sequentially continuous at a point $u$ if, given a sequence $(x_{n})$, $\lim x_{n}=u$ implies that $\lim f(x_{n})=f(u)$. This definition was modified by Connor and Grosse-Erdmann for real functions…

Let $(X,\tau)$ be a Hausdorff space and $n\in\omega$. We prove that if $X$ admits a continuous selection over $\mathcal{F}_{n}(X)$ (nonempty subsets of $X$ of cardinality at most $n$), then for every $n\leq m\leq 2n$ such that $m$ is not a…

We present both necessary and sufficient conditions to the convex closed shape $X$ such that the inequality $$ \frac{1}{|X|} \int_X f(x)\:dx \le \frac{1}{|\partial X|} \int_{\partial X} f(x)\:dx$$ is valid for every convex function $f…

Let $D\subset \C^n,$ $G\subset \C^m$ be pseudoconvex domains, let $A$ (resp. $B$) be an open subset of the boundary $\partial D$ (resp. $\partial G$) and let $X$ be the 2-fold cross $((D\cup A)\times B)\cup (A\times(B\cup G)).$ Suppose in…

In this paper we will give an explicit construction of the geometric model for a prescribed extension of a function field in several variables over a number field. As a by-product, we will also prove the existence of quasi-galois closed…

We show that Boehmians defined over open sets of $\mathbb{R}^N$ constitute a sheaf. In particular, it is shown that such Boehmians satisfy the gluing property of sheaves over a topological space.

Let $E$ be an arbitrary subset of a Banach space $X$, $f: E \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a function, and $G:E \rightrightarrows X^*$ be a set-valued mapping. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on $f, G$ for the existence of a…

The space of constructible functions form a dense subspace of the space of generalized valuations. In this note we prove a somewhat stronger property that the sequential closure, taken sufficiently many (in fact, infinitely many) times, of…
