Assume hat a functionally Hausdorff space $X$ is a continuous image of a \v{C}ech complete space $P$ with Lindel\"of number $l(P)<\mathfrak c$. Then the following conditions are equivalent: (i) every compact subset of $X$ is scattered, (ii)…
A problem of Banach asks whether every infinite-dimensional Banach space which is isomorphic to all its infinite-dimensional subspaces must be isomorphic to a separable Hilbert space. In this paper we prove a result of a Ramsey-theoretic…
The celebrated Josefson-Nissenzweig theorem implies that for a Banach space $C(K)$ of continuous real-valued functions on an infinite compact space $K$ there exists a sequence of Radon measures $\langle\mu_n\colon\ n\in\omega\rangle$ on $K$…
A Banach space is said to be Grothendieck if weak and weak$^*$ convergent sequences in the dual space coincide. This notion has been quantificated by H. Bendov\'{a}. She has proved that $\ell_\infty$ has the quantitative Grothendieck…
It is consistent with any possible value of the continuum $\mathfrak{c}$ that every infinite-dimensional Banach space of density $\leq \mathfrak{c}$ condenses onto the Hilbert cube. Let $\mu$ be a cardinal of uncountable cofinality. It is…
We construct a reflexive Banach space $X$ with a subspace isometric to $X$, which is not complemented in $X$.
We discuss three problems of Koszmider on the structure of the spaces of continuous functions on the Stone compact $K_{\mathcal A}$ generated by an almost disjoint family $\mathcal A$ of infinite subsets of $\omega$ -- we present a solution…
We present a necessary condition for a pair of $\mathcal{C}(K)$ spaces to be isomorphic in terms of topological properties of Cantor-Bendixon derivatives of $K$. This in particular gives a completely new information about the perfect…
We prove under ZFC that in each extremally disconnected compact space there exists a non-limit point of any countable discrete subset.
Given a compact Hausdorff space $K$ we consider the Banach space of real continuous functions $C(K^n)$ or equivalently the $n$-fold injective tensor product $\hat\bigotimes_{\varepsilon}C(K)$ or the Banach space of vector valued continuous…
We construct a nonseparable Banach space $\mathcal X$ (actually, of density continuum) such that any uncountable subset $\mathcal Y$ of the unit sphere of $\mathcal X$ contains uncountably many points distant by less than $1$ (in fact, by…
We investigate the following problem posed by Cabello Sanch\'ez, Castillo, Kalton, and Yost: Let $K$ be a nonmetrizable compact space. Does there exist a nontrivial twisted sum of $c_0$ and $C(K)$, i.e., does there exist a Banach space $X$…
For a non-compact metrizable space $X$, let ${\mathcal E}(X)$ be the set of all one-point metrizable extensions of $X$, and when $X$ is locally compact, let ${\mathcal E}_K(X)$ denote the set of all locally compact elements of ${\mathcal…
In this note we prove that a regular continuous open image of the Sorgenfrey line with an uncountable weight has a closed subspace that is homeomorphic to the Sorgenfrey line. As a corollary we deduce the theorem in the title.
We will show that, consistently, every uncountable set can be continuously mapped onto a non measure zero set, while there exists an uncountable set whose all continuous images into a Polish space are meager.
We show that all sufficiently nice $\lambda$-sets are countable dense homogeneous ($\mathsf{CDH}$). From this fact we conclude that for every uncountable cardinal $\kappa \le \mathfrak{b}$ there is a countable dense homogeneous metric space…
We give an example of a compact metric space $K$, an open dense subset $U$ of $K$, and a sequence $(f_n)$ in $C(K)$ which is pointwise convergent to a non-continuous function on $K$, such that for every $u \in U$ there exists $n \in \N$…
Let X,Y be two Banach spaces ; in the first part of this work, we show that K(X,Y) contains a complemented copy of c0 if Y contains a copy of c0 and each bounded sequence in Y has a subsequece which is w* convergente. Afterward we obtain…
We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a Lipschitz map $f:\mathbb{R}E\to X$, into a metric space to have the image with the $k$-dimensional Hausdorff measure equal zero, $H^k(f(E))=0$. An interesting feature of our approach is that…
Assuming Jensen's diamond principle ($\diamondsuit$) we construct for every natural number $n>0$ a compact Hausdorff space $K$ such that whenever the Banach spaces $C(K)$ and $C(L)$ are isomorphic for some compact Hausdorff $L$, then the…
