A Hausdorff topological group is called minimal if it does not admit a strictly coarser Hausdorff group topology. This paper mostly deals with the topological group $H_+(X)$ of order-preserving homeomorphisms of a compact linearly ordered…

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 give a few observations on different types of bounded operators on a topological vector space X and their relations with compact operators on X. In particular, we investigate when these bounded operators coincide with compact operators.…

We consider quantum XOR games, defined in [11], from the perspective of unitary correlations defined in [7]. We show that Connes' embedding problem has a positive answer if and only if every quantum XOR game has entanglement bias equal to…

We study Maker--Breaker total domination game played by two players, Dominator and Staller, on the connected cubic graphs. Staller (playing the role of Maker) wins if she manages to claim an open neighbourhood of a vertex. Dominator wins…

The $G_\delta$-modification $X_\delta$ of a topological space $X$ is the space on the same underlying set generated by, i.e. having as a basis, the collection of all $G_\delta$ subsets of $X$. Bella and Spadaro recently investigated the…

Let E be a locally compact second countable Hausdorff space and F the pertaining family of all closed sets. We endow F respectively with the Fell-topology, the upper Fell topology or the upper Vietoris-topology and investigate weak…

Let X be a zero-dimensional compact space such that all non-empty clopen subsets of X are homeomorphic to each other, and let H(X) be the group of all self-homeomorphisms of X with the compact-open topology. We prove that the Roelcke…

In our previous work, we introduced McKinsey-Tarski algebras (MT-algebras for short) as an alternative pointfree approach to topology. Here we study local compactness in MT-algebras. We establish the Hofmann-Mislove theorem for sober…

The games G_2 and G_3 are played on a complete Boolean algebra B in \omega-many moves. At the beginning White picks a non-zero element p of B and, in the n-th move, White picks a positive p_n < p and Black chooses an i_n belonging to {0,1}.…

We construct a consistent example of a topological space $Y=X \cup \{\infty\}$ such that: 1) $Y$ is regular. 2) Every $G_\delta$ subset of $Y$ is open. 3) The point $\infty$ is not isolated, but it is not in the closure of any discrete…

We show that a properly stratified algebra is Gorenstein if and only if the characteristic tilting module coincides with the characteristic cotilting module. We further show that properly stratified Gorenstein algebras $A$ enjoy strong…

The domination game is an optimization game played by two players, Dominator and Staller, who alternately select vertices in a graph $G$. A vertex is said to be dominated if it has been selected or is adjacent to a selected vertex. Each…

In the Maker-Breaker resolving game, two players named Resolver and Spoiler alternately select unplayed vertices of a given graph $G$. The aim of Resolver is to select all the vertices of some resolving set of $G$, while Spoiler aims to…

Given a planar oval, consider the maximal area of inscribed $n$-gons resp. the minimal area of circumscribed $n$-gons. One obtains two sequences indexed by $n$, and one of Dowker's theorems states that the first sequence is concave and the…

Let ${\mathcal G}$ be a locally compact group. In continuation of our studies on the first and second duals of measure algebras by the use of the theory of generalised functions, here we study the C$^*$-subalgebra $GL_0({\mathcal G})$ of…

We study the interplay between T-duality, compactification and supersymmetry. We prove that when the original configuration has unbroken space-time supersymmetries, the dual configuration also does if a special condition is met: the Killing…

The aim of the paper is to prove that if $M$ is a metrizable manifold modelled on a Hilbert space of dimension $\alpha \geq \aleph_0$ and $F$ is its $\sigma$-$Z$-set, then for every completely metrizable space $X$ of weight no greater than…

We study two-player games with counters, where the objective of the first player is that the counter values remain bounded. We investigate the existence of a trade-off between the size of the memory and the bound achieved on the counters,…

This paper models games where the strategies are nodes of a graph G (we denote them as G-games) and in presence of coalition structures. The cases of one-shot and repeated games are presented. In the latter situation, coalitions are assumed…
