For the set C(X) of real-valued continuous functions on a Tychonoff space X, the compact-open topology on C(X) is a "set-open topology". This paper studies the separation and countability properties of the space C(X) having the topology…

We introduce the notion of functionally compact sets into the theory of nonlinear generalized functions in the sense of Colombeau. The motivation behind our construction is to transfer, as far as possible, properties enjoyed by standard…

We revisit the definition of effective local compactness, and propose an approach that works for arbitrary countably-based spaces extending the previous work on computable metric spaces. We use this to show that effective local compactness…

A Banach space $X$ has the ball fixed point property (BFPP) if for every closed ball $B$ and for every nonexpansive mapping $T\colon B\to B$, there is a fixed point. We study the BFPP for $C(K)$-spaces. Our goal is to determine topological…

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…

We show that there is an effectively closed maximal eventually different family of functions in spaces of the form $\prod_n F(n)$ for $F\colon \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}\cup\{\mathbb{N}\}$ and give an exact criterion for when there exists an…

Given a closed Riemannian manifold $(N^{n+1},g)$, $n+1 \geq 3$ we prove the compactness of the space of singular, minimal hypersurfaces in $N$ whose volumes are uniformly bounded from above and the $p$-th Jacobi eigenvalue $\lambda_p$'s are…

A topological space $X$ is Baire if the Baire Category Theorem holds for $X$, i.e., the intersection of any sequence of open dense subsets of $X$ is dense in $X$. One of the interesting problems for the space $B_1(X)$ of all Baire-one…

In this paper, pointwise convergence, uniform convergence and compact convergence of sequences of holomorphic functions on an open subset of the complex plane are compared from a linear point of view. In fact, it is proved the existence of…

Let $K$ be a compact Hausdorff space and let $(f_n)_{n\in \N}$ be a pairwise disjoint sequence of continuous functions from $K$ into $[0,1]$. We say that a compact space $L$ \emph{adds supremum} of $(f_n)_{n\in \N}$ in $K$ if there exists a…

The aim of the note is to extend the uniformization theorem to compact Kahler spaces X with mild singularities and establish a kind of rigidity of their universal coverings. We assume the fundamental group of X is large, residually finite…

This paper studies coarse compactifications and their boundary. We introduce two alternative descriptions to Roe's original definition of coarse compactification. One approach uses bounded functions on $X$ that can be extended to the…

The paper considers the spaces $B_p[1, \alpha]$ of all Baire functions $x\colon [1,\alpha]\to \mathbb{R}$, defined on segments of ordinals $[1,\alpha]$ and endowed with the topology of pointwise convergence. A complete topological…

Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional metric space and $X'$ its derived set. We prove the following assertions: (1) the space $C_k(X,2)$ is an Ascoli space iff $C_k(X,2)$ is $k_\mathbb{R}$-space iff either $X$ is locally compact or $X$ is not…

In a metric space, such as the real numbers with their standard metric, a set A is open if and only if no sequence with terms outside of A has a limit inside A. Moreover, a metric space is compact if and only if every sequence has a…

We introduce and study two new relations between function spaces over measure spaces of infinite measure, motivated by the question of establishing compactness. The first relation captures the uniform decay of function (quasi-)norms ``at…

It is solved the problem on construction of separately continuous functions on product of $n$ topological spaces with given restriction. In particular, it is shown that for every topological space $X$ and $n-1$ Baire class function $g:X\to…

Let $\mathbf{TB}$ be the category of totally bounded, locally compact metric spaces with the $C_0$ coarse structures. We show that if $X$ and $Y$ are in $\mathbf{TB}$ then $X$ and $Y$ are coarsely equivalent if and only if their Higson…

A Tychonoff space $X$ is called ({\em sequentially}) {\em Ascoli} if every compact subset (resp. convergent sequence) of $C_k(X)$ is evenly continuous, where $C_k(X)$ denotes the space of all real-valued continuous functions on $X$ endowed…

We say that a topological space X is selectively sequentially pseudocompact (SSP for short) if for every sequence (U_n) of non-empty open subsets of X, one can choose a point x_n in U_n for every n in such a way that the sequence (x_n) has…
