We consider the cardinal invariant CG(X) of the minimal number of weakly compact subsets which generate a Banach space X. We study the behavior of this index when passing to subspaces, its relation with the Lindelof number in the weak…
A finite set X in the Euclidean space is called an s-inner product set if the set of the usual inner products of any two distinct points in X has size s. First, we give a special upper bound for the cardinality of an s-inner product set on…
Given a closed orientable surface (\Sigma) of genus at least two, we establish an affine isomorphism between the convex compact set of isotopy-invariant topological measures on (\Sigma) and the convex compact set of additive functions on…
A space $X$ is said to be $\kappa$-resolvable (resp. almost $\kappa$-resolvable) if it contains $\kappa$ dense sets that are pairwise disjoint (resp. almost disjoint over the ideal of nowhere dense subsets). $X$ is maximally resolvable iff…
An open chain cover $\{U_\alpha : \alpha\in\kappa\}$ ($\kappa$ a cardinal) of a space $X$ is a systematic cover if the closure of $U_\alpha$ is contained in $U_\beta$ when $\alpha<\beta$, and $X$ is Type I if $\kappa=\omega_1$ and the…
We show that there are locally compact spaces that can be condensed onto separable spaces but not onto compact separable spaces. We also show that for every cardinal $\kappa$ there is a locally compact topological group of cardinality…
We show that a linearly ordered topological space is initially \lambda-compact if and only if it is \lambda-bounded, that is, every set of cardinality $\leq \lambda$ has compact closure. As a consequence, every product of initially…
The Kreck-Stolz $s$-invariant is a classic path-component invariant for the space and moduli space of positive scalar curvature metrics. It is an absolute (as opposed to relative) invariant, but this strength comes at the expense of being…
In this paper it is shown how to construct a finite topological space $X$ for a given finitely presentable group $G$ such that $\pi_1(X)\cong G$. Our construction is not optimal in the sense that the cardinality of the space $X$ might not…
Assuming the existence of a strong cardinal $\kappa$ and a measurable cardinal above it, we force a generic extension in which $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal of any prescribed cofinality, and such that the tree property holds…
The $\kappa$-topologies on the spaces $\mathscr{D}_{L^p}$, $L^p$ and $\mathscr{M}^1$ are defined by a neighbourhood basis consisting of polars of absolutely convex and compact subsets of their (pre-)dual spaces. In many cases it is more…
In this survey we catalogue the many results of the past several decades concerning bounds on the cardinality of a topological space with homogeneous or homogeneous-like properties. These results include van Douwen's Theorem, which states…
We study the gauge-invariant ideal structure of the Nica-Toeplitz algebra $\mathcal{NT}(X)$ of a product system $(A, X)$ over $\mathbb{N}^n$. We obtain a clear description of $X$-invariant ideals in $A$, that is, restrictions of…
It is well-known that every non-isolated point in a compact Hausdorff space is the accumulation point of a discrete subset. Answering a question raised by Z. Szentmiklossy and the first author, we show that this statement fails for…
Following the construction of the $\kappa$-Minkowski space from the bicrossproduct structure of the $\kappa$-Poincare group, we investigate possible differential calculi on this noncommutative space. We discuss then the action of the…
For a ring R, denote by Spec^R_kappa(Gamma) the kappa-spectrum of the Gamma-invariant of strongly uniform right R-modules. Recent realization techniques of Goodearl and Wehrung show that Spec^R_{aleph_1}(Gamma) is full for suitable von…
We introduce new cardinal invariants of a poset, called the comparability number and the incomparability number. We determine their value for well-known posets, such as $\omega^\omega$, $\mathcal{P}(\omega)/\mathrm{fin}$, the Turing degrees…
We prove that consistently there is a singular cardinal $\kappa$ of uncountable cofinality such that $2^\kappa$ is weakly inaccessible, and every regular cardinal strictly between $\kappa$ and $2^\kappa$ is the character of some uniform…
Let inv denote the cardinal invariants Depth^+ and Length^+ on Boolean algebras. For many singular cardinals we create a strict inequality between the product of the inv values and the inv of the product algebra. The proof holds in ZFC.
In this paper, we have established boundaries of cardinal numbers of nonempty sets in finite non-$T_1$ topological spaces using interval analysis. For a finite set with known cardinality, we give interval estimations based on the closure…
