We prove that if an analytic subset $A$ of a linear metric space $X$ is not contained in a $\sigma Z_\omega$-subset of $X$ then for every Polish convex set $K$ with dense affine hull in $X$ the sum $A+K$ is non-meager in $X$ and the sets…

We give several partial positive answers to a question of Juhasz and Szentmiklossy regarding the minimum number of discrete sets required to cover a compact space. We study the relationship between the size of discrete sets, free sequences…

In many applications it is important to establish if a given topological preordered space has a topology and a preorder which can be recovered from the set of continuous isotone functions. Under antisymmetry this property, also known as…

We show a number of undecidable assertions concerning countably compact spaces hold under PFA(S)[S]. We also show the consistency without large cardinals of "every locally compact, perfectly normal space is paracompact".

An ultrafilter $p$ on $\omega$ is said to be discrete if, given any function $f\colon \omega \to X$ to any completely regular Hausdorff space, there is an $A \in p$ such that $f(A)$ is discrete. Basic properties of discrete ultrafilters are…

We demonstrate that the open core of a definably complete expansion of a densely linearly ordered abelian group is locally o-minimal if and only if any definable closed subset of $R$ is either discrete or contains a nonempty open interval.…

Let $\{F_n\}$ be the sequence of the Fej\'er kernels on the unit circle $\mathbb{T}$. The first author recently proved that if $X$ is a separable Banach function space on $\mathbb{T}$ such that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator $M$ is…

Theories of classification distinguish classes with some good structure theorem from those for which none is possible. Some classes (dense linear orders, for instance) are non-classifiable in general, but are classifiable when we consider…

The moduli space of canonical divisors (with prescribed zeros and poles) on nonsingular curves is not compact since the curve may degenerate. We define a proper moduli space of twisted canonical divisors in the moduli space of…

We use convergence theory as the framework for studying H-closed spaces and H-sets in topological spaces. From this viewpoint, it becomes clear that the property of being H-closed and the property of being an H-set in a topological space…

The KC property, a separation axiom between weakly Hausdorff and Hausdorff, requires compact subsets to be closed. Various assumptions involving local conditions, dimension, connectivity, and homotopy show certain KC-spaces are in fact…

We say that a graph G has a perfect H-packing if there exists a set of vertex-disjoint copies of H which cover all the vertices in G. We consider various problems concerning perfect H-packings: Given positive integers n, r, D, we…

A linear relation, i.e., a multivalued operator $T$ from a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}$ to a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak K}$ has Lebesgue type decompositions $T=T_{1}+T_{2}$, where $T_{1}$ is a closable operator and $T_{2}$ is an operator or…

We describe some sufficient conditions, under which smooth and compactly supported functions are or are not dense in the fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$ for an open, bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{d}$. The density property…

Let $Y$ be a metrizable space containing at least two points, and let $X$ be a $Y_{\mathcal{I}}$-Tychonoff space for some ideal $\mathcal{I}$ of compact sets of $X$. Denote by $C_{\mathcal{I}}(X,Y)$ the space of continuous functions from…

A Minkowski class is a closed subset of the space of convex bodies in Euclidean space Rn which is closed under Minkowski addition and non-negative dilatations. A convex body in Rn is universal if the expansion of its support function in…

We provide both a spectral and an internal characterizations of arbitrary I-favorable spaces with respect to co-zero sets. As a corollary we establish that any product of compact I-favorable spaces with respect to co-zero sets is also…

We work in set-theory without choice ZF. Denoting by AC(N) the countable axiom of choice, we show in ZF+AC(N) that the closed unit ball of a uniformly convex Banach space is compact in the convex topology (an alternative to the weak…

We solve a long standing question due to Arhangel'skii by constructing a compact space which has a $G_\delta$ cover with no continuum-sized ($G_\delta$)-dense subcollection. We also prove that in a countably compact weakly Lindel\"of normal…

Motivated by recent work exhibiting a locally compact scattered space $L$ constructed under Ostaszewski's $\clubsuit$-principle, which yielded a complete classification of linear operators on $C_0(L\times L)$, we extend the analysis to the…
