We prove that continuous reducibility is a well-quasi-order on the class of continuous functions between separable metrizable spaces with analytic zero-dimensional domain. To achieve this, we define scattered functions, which generalize…

The notion of stationary reflection is one of the most important notions of combinatorial set theory. We investigate weak reflection, which is, as the name suggests, a weak version of stationary reflection. This sort of reflection was…

The underlying theme of this article is a class of sequences in metric structures satisfying a much weaker kind of Cauchy condition, namely quasi-Cauchy sequences (introduced in \cite{bc}) that has been used to define several new concepts…

Hiss and Szczepa\'nski proved in 1991 that the holonomy group of any compact flat Riemannian manifold, of dimension at least two, acts reducibly on the rational span of the Euclidean lattice associated with the manifold via the first…

The continuity problem, i.e., the question whether effective maps between effectively given topological spaces are effectively continuous, is reconsidered. In earlier work it was shown that this is always the case, if the effective map also…

In this paper, we provide a partial answer to a problem posed by A. V.Arhangel'skii; we show that if X is a compactum cleavable over a separable linearly ordered topological space (LOTS) Y such that for some continuous function f from X to…

Motivated by results of Juh\'asz and van Mill in [13], we define the cardinal invariant $wt(X)$, the weak tightness of a topological space $X$, and show that $|X|\leq 2^{L(X)wt(X)\psi(X)}$ for any Hausdorff space $X$ (Theorem 2.8). As…

We show global existence backwards from scattering data at infinity for semilinear wave equations satisfying the null condition or the weak null condition. Semilinear terms satisfying the weak null condition appear in many equations in…

In this paper, we apply the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness to obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions for certain matrix operators on the Fibonacci difference sequence spaces l_{p}(F) and l_{infinite}(F) to be compact, where…

In this paper, authors prove that if $X$ is a weak Asplund space, then the space $X\times R$ is a weak Asplund space. Thus the author definitely answered an open problem raised by D.G. Larman and R.R. Phelps for 45 years ago (J. London.…

In 1971 I announced what I described as a nice proof of Tychonoff's Theorem, an immediate corollary of a result concerning closed projections combined with Mrowka's characterization of compactness: a space X is compact if and only if for…

It is proved that an inhomogeneous medium whose boundary contains a weakly singular point of arbitrary order scatters every incoming wave. Similarly, a compactly supported source term with weakly singular points on the boundary always…

We give examples of $n$-sequentially compact spaces that are not $(n+1)$-sequentially compact under several assumptions. We improve results from Kubis and Szeptycki by building such examples from $\mathfrak{b=c}$ and…

We consider the cardinal sequences of compact scattered spaces in models where CH is false. We describe a number of models where the continuum is aleph_2 in which no such space can have aleph_2 countable levels.

In this paper, we establish a common fixed point theorem for two pairs of occasionally weakly compatible single and set-valued maps satisfying a strict contractive condition in a metric space. Our result extends many results existing in the…

We generalize an abstract variational principle in Banach spaces, introduced by Topalova \& Zlateva, by showing that the set $\mathbb{P}_0$ of perturbations for which a perturbed lower semi-continuous function $f$ is WPMC (Well Posed…

We give a new proof of the Kat\v{e}tov-Tong theorem. Our strategy is to first prove the theorem for compact Hausdorff spaces, and then extend it to all normal spaces. The key ingredient is how the ring of bounded continuous real-valued…

We show that if X is a tight subspace of C(K) then X has the Pelczynski property and X^* is weakly sequentially complete. We apply this result to the space U of uniformly convergent Taylor series on the unit circle and using a minimal…

Consider a C*-algebra $A$ with a comultiplication $\Delta$. This pair is usually thought of as locally compact quantum semi-group. When these notes were written, in 1993, it was not at all clear what the extra assumptions on the…

In a recent paper (2018), D. Hofmann, R. Neves and P. Nora proved that the dual of the category of compact partially ordered spaces and monotone continuous maps is a quasi-variety - not finitary, but bounded by $\aleph_1$. An open question…
