In our paper [18] we showed that a Tychonoff space $X$ is a $\Delta$-space (in the sense of [20], [30]) if and only if the locally convex space $C_{p}(X)$ is distinguished. Continuing this research, we investigate whether the class $\Delta$…

This paper is a systematic approach to the construction of coronas (i.e. Higson dominated boundaries at infinity) of combable spaces. We introduce three additional properties for combings: properness, coherence and expandingness. Properness…

The main aim of the article is to show, in the absence of the Axiom of Choice, relationships between the following, independent of $\mathbf{ZF}$, statements: "Every countable product of compact metrizable spaces is separable (respectively,…

A space $X$ is called {\it selectively pseudocompact} if for each sequence $(U_{n})_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of pairwise disjoint nonempty open subsets of $X$ there is a sequence $(x_{n})_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of points in $X$ such that $cl_X(\{x_n…

In this paper, we study compactness and finiteness of an $\infty$-category $\mathcal{C}$ equipped with a conservative functor to a finite poset $P$. We provide sufficient conditions for $\mathcal{C}$ to be compact in terms of strata and…

We introduce the property of countable separation for a locally convex Hausdorff space $X$ and relate it to the existence of a metrizable coarser topology. Building on this, we demonstrate how the separability of $X$ is equivalent to the…

In this paper we prove that for a compact space $X$ inclusion $P_{f}(X)\in ANR$ holds if and only if $X\in ANR$. Further, it is shown that the functor $P_{f}$ preserves property of a compact to be $Q$-manifold or a Hilbert cube, properties…

For every space $X$ let $\mathcal K(X)$ be the set of all compact subsets of $X$. Christensen \cite{c:74} proved that if $X, Y$ are separable metrizable spaces and $F\colon\mathcal{K}(X)\to\mathcal{K}(Y)$ is a monotone map such that any…

We show in detail that every compact countable subset of a metric space is homeomorphic to a countable ordinal number, which extends a result given by Mazurkiewicz and Sierpinski for finite-dimensional Euclidean spaces. In order to achieve…

We prove that a compact space $K$ embeds into a $\sigma$-product of compact metrizable spaces ($\sigma$-product of intervals) if and only if $K$ is (strongly countable-dimensional) hereditarily metalindel\"of and every subspace of $K$ has a…

We analyze the effective content of countable, second countable topological spaces by directly calculating the complexity of several topologically defined index sets. We focus on the separation principles, calibrating an arithmetic…

Countable tightness may be destroyed by countably closed forcing. We characterize the indestructibility of countable tightness under countably closed forcing by combinatorial statements similar to the ones Tall used to characterize…

It is shown that under certain stability conditions a complemented subspace of the space $s$ of rapidly decreasing sequences is isomorphic to $s$ and this condition characterizes $s$. This result is used to show that for the classical…

A space is od-compact (resp. od-Lindel\"of) provided any cover by open dense sets has a finite (resp. countable) subcover. We first show with simple examples that these properties behave quite poorly under finite or countable unions. We…

Using approximation by continuous functions we prove the following statements to types of tightness in a space $Q_p(X, \mathbb{R})$ of all quasicontinuous real-valued functions with the topology $\tau_p$ of pointwise convergence: the…

A topological space $X$ is called almost discrete, if it has precisely one nonisolated point. In this paper, we get that for a countable product $X=\prod X_i$ of almost discrete spaces $X_i$ the space $C_p(X)$ of continuous real-valued…

We investigate strongly separately continuous functions on a product of topological spaces and prove that if $X$ is a countable product of real lines, then there exists a strongly separately continuous function $f:X\to\mathbb R$ which is…

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.

A subset $B \subset Y$ is constructible if it is an element of the smallest family that contains all open sets and is stable under finite intersections and complements. A function $f : X \to Y$ is said to be piece-wise closed if $X$ can be…

For a completely regular space $X$, denote by $C_p(X)$ the space of continuous real-valued functions on $X$, with the pointwise convergence topology. In this article we strengthen a theorem of O. Okunev concerning preservation of some…
