It is well known that every (real or complex) normed linear space $L$ is isometrically embeddable into $C(X)$ for some compact Hausdorff space $X$. Here $X$ is the closed unit ball of $L^*$ (the set of all continuous scalar-valued linear…
The pinning down number $ {pd}(X)$ of a topological space $X$ is the smallest cardinal $\kappa$ such that for any neighborhood assignment $U:X\to \tau_X$ there is a set $A\in [X]^\kappa$ with $A\cap U(x)\ne\emptyset$ for all $x\in X$.…
A topological space $X$ is said to be an Ascoli space if any compact subset $K$ of $C_k(X)$ is evenly continuous. This definition is motivated by the classical Ascoli theorem. We study the $k_R$-property and the Ascoli property of…
We introduce the notion of asymptotic coarse Lipschitz equivalence of metric spaces. We show that it is strictly weaker than coarse Lipschitz equivalence. We study its impact on the asymptotic dimension of metric spaces. Then we focus on…
We prove that every point-finite family of nonempty functionally open sets in a topological space $X$ has the cardinality at most an infinite cardinal $\kappa$ if and only if $w(X)\leq\kappa$ for every Valdivia compact space $Y\subseteq…
In this paper for each cardinal $\kappa$ we construct an infinite $\kappa$-bounded (and hence countably compact) regular space $R_{\kappa}$ such that for any $T_1$ space $Y$ of pseudo-character $\leq\kappa$, each continuous function…
In this paper we examine two basic topological properties of partial metric spaces, namely compactness and completeness. Our main result claims that in these spaces compactness is equivalent to sequential compactness. We also show that…
We determine when a quasi-isometry between discrete spaces is at bounded distance from a bilipschitz map. From this we prove a geometric version of the Von Neumann conjecture on amenability. We also get some examples in geometric groups…
In this note we find $\lambda>1$ and give an explicit construction of a separable Banach space $X$ such that there is no $\lambda$-Lipschitz retraction from $X$ onto any compact convex subset of $X$ whose closed linear span is $X$. This is…
We use the core model for sequences of measures to prove a new lower bound for the consistency strength of the failure of the SCH: THEOREM (i) If there is a singular strong limit cardinal $\kappa$ such that $2^\kappa > kappa^+$ then there…
We investigate quantitative estimates in periodic homogenization of second-order elliptic systems of elasticity with singular fourth-order perturbations. The convergence rates, which depend on the scale $\kappa$ that represents the strength…
Let $L^0$ be the vector space of all (equivalence classes of) real-valued random variables built over a probability space $(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, P)$, equipped with a metric topology compatible with convergence in probability. In this work,…
Given a cardinal $\kappa$ that is $\lambda$-supercompact for some regular cardinal $\lambda\geq\kappa$ and assuming $\GCH$, we show that one can force the continuum function to agree with any function $F:[\kappa,\lambda]\cap\REG\to\CARD$…
For every metric space $X$ we introduce two cardinal characteristics $\mathrm{cov}^\flat(X)$ and $\mathrm{cov}^\sharp(X)$ describing the capacity of balls in $X$. We prove that these cardinal characteristics are invariant under coarse…
Lattices and periodic point sets are well known objects from discrete geometry. They are also used in crystallography as one of the models of atomic structure of periodic crystals. In this paper we study the embedding properties of spaces…
Using elementary probabilistic methods, in particular a variant of the Weak Law of Large Numbers related to the Bernoulli distribution, we prove that for every infinite compact spaces $K$ and $L$ the product $K\times L$ admits a sequence…
We prove that the locally convex space $C_{p}(X)$ of continuous real-valued functions on a Tychonoff space $X$ equipped with the topology of pointwise convergence is distinguished if and only if $X$ is a $\Delta$-space in the sense of \cite…
Building on work of Holy, L\"ucke and Njegomir \cite{MR3913154} on small embedding characterizations of large cardinals, we use some classical results of Baumgartner (see \cite{MR0384553} and \cite{MR0540770}), to give characterizations of…
We show the existence of Lipschitz-free spaces verifying the Point of Continuity Property with arbitrarily high weak-fragmentability index. For this purpose, we use a generalized construction of the countably branching diamond graphs. As a…
Cocompactness is a property of embeddings between two Banach spaces, similar to but weaker than compactness, defined relative to some non-compact group of bijective isometries. In presence of a cocompact embedding, bounded sequences (in the…
