We investigate when the space $\mathcal O_X$ of open subsets of a topological space $X$ endowed with the Scott topology is core compact. Such conditions turn out to be related to infraconsonance of $X$, which in turn is characterized in…

Consider an a.e.c. (abstract elementary class), that is, a class K of models with a partial order refining inclusion (submodel) which satisfy the most basic properties of an elementary class. Our test question is trying to show that the…

We identify a class of linearly ordered topological spaces $X$ that may satisfy the property that $X\times X$ is homeomorphic to $X\times_l X$ or can be embedded into a linearly ordered space with the stated property. We justify the…

We extend to singular cardinals the model-theoretical relation $\lambda \stackrel{\kappa}{\Rightarrow} \mu$ introduced in P. Lipparini, The compactness spectrum of abstract logics, large cardinals and combinatorial principles, Boll. Unione…

Finiteness spaces constitute a categorical model of Linear Logic (LL) whose objects can be seen as linearly topologised spaces, (a class of topological vector spaces introduced by Lefschetz in 1942) and morphisms as continuous linear maps.…

We show that there exists a canonical topology, naturally connected with the causal site of J. D. Christensen and L. Crane, a pointless algebraic structure motivated by quantum gravity. Taking a causal site compatible with Minkowski space,…

We establish that if it is consistent that there is a supercompact cardinal, then it is consistent that every locally compact, hereditarily normal space which does not include a perfect pre-image of omega_1 is hereditarily paracompact.

In this paper, we show that the existence of certain first-countable compact-like extensions is equivalent to the equality between corresponding cardinal characteristics of the continuum. For instance, $\mathfrak b=\mathfrak s=\mathfrak c$…

The aim of this paper is to study the topological properties of some classes of subsemimodules endowed with a subbasis closed-set topology. We show that such spaces are $T_0$. When the semimodule is finitely generated, those spaces are…

A test space is the set of outcome-sets associated with a collection of experiments. This notion provides a simple mathematical framework for the study of probabilistic theories -- notably, quantum mechanics -- in which one is faced with…

We prove that if $H$ is a topological group such that all closed subgroups of $H$ are separable, then the product $G\times H$ has the same property for every separable compact group $G$. Let $c$ be the cardinality of the continuum. Assuming…

Let I be a dense linear order with a left endpoint but no right endpoint. We consider the lattice L(I) of finite unions of closed intervals of I. This lattice arises naturally in the setting of o-minimality, as these are precisely the…

We show that the space of continuous functions over a compact space X admits an equivalent pointwise-lowersemicontinuous locally uniformly rotund norm whenever X admits a fully closed map onto a compact Y such that C(Y) and the spaces of…

We prove that each metrizable space (of cardinality less or equal to continuum) has a (first countable) uniform Eberlein compactification and each scattered metrizable space has a scattered hereditarily paracompact compactification. Each…

Each symmetrically-normed ideal $\mathcal{I}$ of compact operators on a Hilbert space $H$ induces a multiplier topology $\mu^*_{\mathcal{I}}$ on the algebra $\mathcal{B}(H)$ of bounded operators. We show that under fairly reasonable…

We show that, if a simple $C^{*}$-algebra $A$ is topologically finite-dimensional in a suitable sense, then not only $K_{0}(A)$ has certain good properties, but $A$ is even accessible to Elliott's classification program. More precisely, we…

Let $(X, \omega)$ be a compact symplectic manifold and $L$ be a Lagrangian submanifold. Suppose $(X, L)$ has a Hamiltonian $S^1$ action with moment map $\mu$. Take an invariant $\omega$-compatible almost complex structure, we consider…

We define a notion of {\it positive part} of a lattice $\Lambda$ and we endow the set of such positive parts with a topology. We then study some properties of this topology, by comparing it with the one of $V^*/\RM_{> 0}$, where $V^*$ is…

A natural topology on the space of left orderings of an arbitrary semi-group is introduced. It is proved that this space is compact and that for free abelian groups it is homeomorphic to the Cantor set. An application of this result is a…

For a separable locally compact but not compact metrizable space $X$, let $\alpha X = X \cup \{x_\infty\}$ be the one-point compactification with the point at infinity $x_\infty$. We denote by $EM(X)$ the space consisting of admissible…
