It is known that for $\sigma$-compact groups Kazhdan's Property $(T)$ is equivalent to Serre's Property $(FH)$. Generalized versions of those properties, called properties $(T_{B})$ and $(F_{B})$, can be defined in terms of the isometric…

We consider the following variation of the Scarborough-Stone problem: Is $X^\kappa$ always countably compact whenever $X$ is separable and sequentially compact?

It is known that $C(X)$ is algebraically closed if $X$ is a locally connected, hereditarily unicoherent compact Hausdorff space. For such spaces, we prove that if $F:C(X) \to C(X)$ is given by an everywhere convergent power series with…

Among cocomplete categories, the locally presentable ones can be defined as those with a strong generator consisting of presentable objects. Assuming Vop{\v{e}}nka's Principle, we prove that a cocomplete category is locally presentable iff…

We study separating function sets. We find some necessary and sufficient conditions for $C_p(X)$ or $C_p^2(X)$ to have a point-separating subspace that is a metric space with certain nice properties. One of the corollaries to our discussion…

In the absence of the axiom of choice, the set-theoretic status of many natural statements about metrizable compact spaces is investigated. Some of the statements are provable in $\mathbf{ZF}$, some are shown to be independent of…

We say that a set is exhaustible if it admits algorithmic universal quantification for continuous predicates in finite time, and searchable if there is an algorithm that, given any continuous predicate, either selects an element for which…

For a continuous action $G\curvearrowright X$ of a countable group on a compact metrizable space we show that the following are equivalent: (i) the action $G\curvearrowright X$ has the small boundary property and no finite orbits, (ii) for…

The property of countable metacompactness of a topological space gets its importance from Dowker's 1951 theorem that the product of a normal space X with the unit interval is again normal iff X is countably metacompact. In a recent paper,…

We show that in algebraically locally finite countable homogeneous structures with a free stationary independence relation the small index property implies the strong small index property. We use this and the main result of [15] to deduce…

In this article we prove that every isometric copy of C(L) in C(K) is complemented if L is compact Hausdorff of finite height and K is a compact Hausdorff space satisfying the extension property, i.e., every closed subset of K admits an…

We will introduce the countable separation property (CSP) of Banach spaces X, which is defined as follows: For each subset \mathcal{F} of X^{\ast}, which separates X, there exists a countable separating subset \mathcal{F}_{0} of…

We show that for any locally compact second countable group $G$ and any continuous positive definite function $\phi:G\rightarrow\mathbb{C}$, there exists an ergodic measure preserving system $(X,\mathscr{B},\mu,\{T_g\}_{g \in G})$ and a…

We study the classification of spaces of continuous functions $C(K)$ under positive linear maps. For infinite countable compacta, we show that whenever $C(K)$ and $C(L)$ are isomorphic, there exists an isomorphism $T:C(K)\to C(L)$…

We introduce a new point of view towards Glaeser's theorem on composite $C^\infty$ functions [Ann. of Math. 1963], with respect to which we can formulate a ``$C^k$ composite function property" that is satisfied by all semiproper real…

We consider classes T of topological spaces (referred to as T-spaces) that are stable under continuous images and frequently under arbitrary products. A local T-space has for each point a neighborhood base consisting of subsets that are…

The paper studies computability-theoretic aspects of topological $T_0$-spaces. We introduce effective versions of the notions of a countable $c$-poset and a (second-countable) topological space with base. Based on this, we prove an…

We show the necessary part of the following theorem : a finitely generated, residually finite group has property $PL^p$ (i.e. it admits a proper isometric affine action on some $L^p$ space) if, and only if, one (or equivalently, all) of its…

We first show that in the function realizability topos every metric space is separable, and every object with decidable equality is countable. More generally, working with synthetic topology, every $T_0$-space is separable and every…

Let $X$ be a locally compact topological space, $(Y,d)$ be a boundedly compact metric space and $LB(X,Y)$ be the space of all locally bounded functions from $X$ to $Y$. We characterize compact sets in $LB(X,Y)$ equipped with the topology of…
