A function $f:X\to Y$ between topological spaces is called {\em compact-preserving} if the image $f(K)$ of each compact subset $K\subset X$ is compact. We prove that a function $f:X\to Y$ defined on a strong Frechet space $X$ is…

Let us call a function $f$ from a space $X$ into a space $Y$ preserving if the image of every compact subspace of $X$ is compact in $Y$ and the image of every connected subspace of $X$ is connected in $Y$. By elementary theorems a…

Many classes of maps are characterized as (possibly multi-valued) maps preserving particular types of compact filters.

Let $C(X,E)$ be the linear space of all continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space $X$ with values in a locally convex space $E$. We characterize maps $T:C(X,E)\to C(Y,E)$ which satisfy $\mathrm{Ran}(TF-TG)\subset\mathrm{Ran}(F-G)$…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be topological spaces, let $Z$ be a metric space, and let $f: X\times Y\to Z$ be a mapping. It is shown that when $Y$ has a countable base $\mathcal B$, then under a rather general condition on the set-valued mappings $X\ni…

We present some sufficient conditions for continuity of the mapping $f:\langle X,\tau_X^*\rangle \to \langle Y,\tau_Y^*\rangle$, where $\tau_X^*$ and $\tau_Y^*$ are topologies induced by the local function on $X$ and $Y$, resp. under the…

Let ${\mathscr P}$ be a topological property. We say that a space $X$ is ${\mathscr P}$-connected if there exists no pair $C$ and $D$ of disjoint cozero-sets of $X$ with non-${\mathscr P}$ closure such that the remainder $X\backslash(C\cup…

We prove that the inclusion of map(X,Y) into map(K(X),K(Y)) is continuous, where K(X) is the space of non-empty compact subsets of X (also known as the hyperspace of compact subsets of X), and both spaces of maps are endowed with the…

The main result of this paper states that for a function $f:\R^2\to Y$ with a closed, connected and locally connected graph, where $Y$ is a locally compact, second-countable metrisable space, the graph over discontinuity points remains…

A map $f:X\to Y$ between topological spaces is skeletal if the preimage $f^{-1}(A)$ of each nowhere dense subset $A\subset Y$ is nowhere dense in $X$. We prove that a normal functor $F:Comp\to Comp$ is skeletal (which means that $F$…

If $f:[a,b]\to \mathbb{R}$, with $a<b$, is continuous and such that $a$ and $b$ are mapped in opposite directions by $f$, then $f$ has a fixed point in $I$. Suppose that $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ is map and $X$ is a continuum. We extend…

We prove that an injective map $f:X\to Y$ between connected metrizable spaces $X,Y$ is continuous if for every connected subset $C\subset X$ the image $f(C)$ is connected and one of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) $Y$ is a…

We consider maps which preserve functions which are built out of the invariants of some simple vector fields. We give a reduction procedure, which can be used to derive commuting maps of the plane, which preserve the same symplectic form…

Consider a Hausdorff space (X,T) and a set C of converging nets in X. By virtue of the limit uniqueness, the relation Lim which assigns each member x of X to every net N lying in C that converges to x is a map. Of course, structuring C with…

A convex subset X of a linear topological space is called compactly convex if there is a continuous compact-valued map $\Phi:X\to exp(X)$ such that $[x,y]\subset\Phi(x)\cup \Phi(y)$ for all $x,y\in X$. We prove that each convex subset of…

A map $f:X\to Y$ between topological spaces is defined to be {\em scatteredly continuous} if for each subspace $A\subset X$ the restriction $f|A$ has a point of continuity. We show that for a function $f:X\to Y$ from a perfectly paracompact…

We construct a Banach space satisfying that the nearest point map (also called proximity mapping or metric projection) onto any compact and convex subset is continuous but not uniformly continuous. The space we construct is locally…

Given a code from a shift space to an irreducible sofic shift, any two of the following three conditions -- open, constant-to-one, (right or left) closing -- imply the third. If the range is not sofic, then the same result holds when…

For metric spaces $X$ and $Y$, normed spaces $E$ and $F$, and certain subspaces $A(X,E)$ and $A(Y,F)$ of vector-valued continuous functions, we obtain a complete characterization of linear and bijective maps $T:A(X,E)\to A(Y,F)$ preserving…

If $\mathcal P$ is a family of filters over some set $I$, a topological space $X$ is \emph{sequencewise $\mathcal P$-\brfrt compact} if, for every $I$-indexed sequence of elements of $X$, there is $F \in \mathcal P$ such that the sequence…
