We prove that a compact space is monotonically Sokolov if and only if it is monotonically $\omega$-monolithic. This gives answers to several questions of R. Rojas-Hernandez and V. V. Tkachuk.
In this article, we mainly study certain families of continuous retractions ($r$-skeletons) having certain rich properties. By using monotonically retractable spaces we solve a question posed by R. Z. Buzyakova in \cite{buz} concerning the…
We give a new characterization of Valdivia compact spaces: A compact space is Valdivia if and only if it has a dense commutatively monotonically retractable subspace. This result solves Problem 5.12 from \cite{sal-rey}. Besides, we…
We prove some generalizations of results concerning Valdivia compact spaces (equivalently spaces with a commutative retractional skeleton) to the spaces with a retractional skeleton (not necessarily commutative). Namely, we show that the…
Numerably contractible spaces play an important role in the theory of homotopy pushouts and pullbacks. The corresponding results imply that a number of well known weak homotopy equivalences are genuine ones if numerably contractible spaces…
We prove that if $K$ is a compact space and the space $P(K\times K)$ of regular probability measures on $K\times K$ has countable tightness in its $weak^*$ topology, then $L_1(\mu)$ is separable for every $\mu\in P(K)$. It has been known…
Answering a question raised by V. V. Tkachuk, we present several examples of $\sigma$-compact spaces, some only consistent and some in ZFC, that are not countably tight but in which the closure of any discrete subset is countably tight. In…
An $r$-skeleton on a compact space is a family of continuous retractions having certain rich properties. The $r$-skeletons have been used to characterized the Valdivia compact spaces and the Corson compact spaces. Here, we characterized a…
In this paper, we first prove that the retract of a consonant space (or co-consonant space) is consonant (co-consonant). Using this result, some related results have obtained. Simultaneously, we proved that (1) the co-consonance of the…
We characterize when the countable power of a Corson compactum has a dense metrizable subspace and construct consistent examples of Corson compacta whose countable power does not have a dense metrizable subspace. We also give several…
A topological space $X$ is said to be {\em $Y$-rigid} if any continuous map $f:X\rightarrow Y$ is constant. In this paper we construct a number of examples of regular countably compact $\mathbb R$-rigid spaces with additional properties…
A compact space X is I-favorable if, and only if X can be representing as a limit of $\sigma$-complete inverse system of compact metrizable spaces with skeletal bonding maps.
The deck, $\mathcal{D}(X)$, of a topological space $X$ is the set $\mathcal{D}(X)=\{[X \setminus \{x\}]\colon x \in X\}$, where $[Y]$ denotes the homeomorphism class of $Y$. A space $X$ is (topologically) reconstructible if whenever…
A topological space $X$ is cometrizable if it admits a weaker metrizable topology such that each point $x\in X$ has a (not necessarily open) neighborhood base consisting of metrically closed sets. We study the relation of cometrizable…
A topological space is nonseparably connected if it is connected but all of its connected separable subspaces are singletons. We show that each connected first countable space is the image of a nonseparably connected complete metric space…
We show that any metacompact Moore space is monotonically metacompact and use that result to characterize monotone metacompactness in certain generalized ordered (GO)spaces. We show, for example, that a generalized ordered space with a…
We show in ZF that: (i) Every subcompact metrizable space is completely metrizable, and every completely metrizable space is countably subcompact. (ii) A metrizable space X=(X,T) is countably compact iff it is countably subcompact relative…
A topological space ${\mathcal X}$ is reversible iff each continuous bijection (condensation) $f: {\mathcal X} \rightarrow {\mathcal X}$ is a homeomorphism; weakly reversible iff whenever ${\mathcal Y}$ is a space and there are…
A space $X$ has countable $(F)$-property if it has countable point network satisfying the Collins-Roscoe structuring mechanism. Some sufficient conditions for $C_p(X)$ having countable $(F)$-property are obtained. As a corollary, we prove…
The main result of this article is: THEOREM. Every homogeneous locally conical connected separable metric space that is not a $1$-manifold is strongly $n$-homogeneous for each $n \geq 2$ and countable dense homogeneous. Furthermore,…
