We prove a global continuation result for $T$-periodic solutions of a $T$-periodic parametrized second order retarded functional differential equation on a boundaryless compact manifold with nonzero Euler-Poincare' characteristic. The…

For a metric compact space $L$ and a Banach space $E$, we provide a characterization of the complementability of the Banach space $\mathcal{C}(L)$ of continuous functions on $L$ inside $E$ in terms of the existence of a certain tree in the…

We show that for every $d\ge 1$, if $L_1,\ldots, L_d$ are linearly ordered compact spaces and there is a continuous surjection \[ L_1\times L_2\times \dots\times L_d\to K_1\times K_2\times\ldots\times K_{d}\times K_{d+1},\] where all the…

We prove that on the Baire space $(D^{\kappa},\pi)$, $\kappa \geq \omega_0$ where $D$ is a uniformly discrete space having $\omega _1$-strongly compact cardinal and $\pi$ denotes the product uniformity on $D^\kappa$, there exists a…

We investigate the existence of well-ordered sequences of Baire 1 functions on separable metric spaces.

We first show that a continuous function f is nonnegative on a closed set $K\subseteq R^n$ if and only if (countably many) moment matrices of some signed measure $d\nu =fd\mu$ with support equal to K, are all positive semidefinite (if $K$…

We present a class of functions $\mathcal{K}$ in $C^0(\R)$ which is variant of the Knopp class of nowhere differentiable functions. We derive estimates which establish $\mathcal{K} \sub C^{0,\al}(\R)$ for $0<\al<1$ but no $K \in…

Certain subclasses of $B_1(K)$, the Baire-1 functions on a compact metric space $K$, are defined and characterized. Some applications to Banach spaces are given.

We study the algebraic $K$-theory of the ring of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space with values in a local division ring, e.g., a local field: We compute its negative $K$-theory and show its $K$-regularity. The complex case…

Let $D$ be the open unit disc in the complex plane. We denote by $\mathbb{C}$ the set of complex numbers and consider any compact set $K$ which is disjoint from $D$ and which also has connected complement. Let $A(K)$ denote all the…

The main aim of this work is to show, in the absence of the Axiom of Choice, fundamental results on $\mathbf{E}$-compact extensions of $\mathbf{E}$-completely regular spaces, in particular, on Hewitt realcompactifications and Banaschewski…

Improving a result of M. Talagrand, under the assumption of a weak form of Martin's axiom, we construct a totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space $K$ such that the Banach space $C(K)$ of continuous real-valued functions on $K$ is a…

Let $Bo(T,\tau)$ be the Borel $\sigma$-algebra generated by the topology $\tau$ on $T$. In this paper we show that if $K$ is a Hausdorff compact space, then every subset of $K$ is a Borel set if, and only if,…

We study the classification of spaces of continuous functions $C(K)$ under positive linear maps. For infinite countable compacta, we show that whenever $C(K)$ and $C(L)$ are isomorphic, there exists an isomorphism $T:C(K)\to C(L)$…

The paper addresses generalized Borel summability of ``$1^+$'' difference equations in ``critical time''. We show that the Borel transform $Y$ of a prototypical such equation is analytic and exponentially bounded for $\Re(p)<1$ but there is…

Let $X$ be a locally compact topological space, $(Y,d)$ be a boundedly compact metric space and $LB(X,Y)$ be the space of all locally bounded functions from $X$ to $Y$. We characterize compact sets in $LB(X,Y)$ equipped with the topology of…

In this paper we continue the work that we began in arXiv:1912.07537. Given $1<p<N$, two measurable functions $V\left(r \right)\geq 0$ and $K\left(r\right)> 0$, and a continuous function $A(r) >0\ (r>0)$, we consider the quasilinear…

We prove various results in infinite-dimensional differential calculus which relate differentiability properties of functions and associated operator-valued functions (e.g., differentials). The results are applied in two areas: 1. in the…

We present a necessary condition for a pair of $\mathcal{C}(K)$ spaces to be isomorphic in terms of topological properties of Cantor-Bendixon derivatives of $K$. This in particular gives a completely new information about the perfect…

For a set $X\sbst\R$, let $B(X)\sbst\R^X$ denote the space of Borel real-valued functions on $X$, with the topology inherited from the Tychonoff product $\R^X$. Assume that for each countable $A\sbst B(X)$, each $f$ in the closure of $A$ is…
