In this paper it is shown how to construct a finite topological space $X$ for a given finitely presentable group $G$ such that $\pi_1(X)\cong G$. Our construction is not optimal in the sense that the cardinality of the space $X$ might not…

Definition. Let $\kappa$ be an infinite cardinal, let {X(i)} be a (not necessarily faithfully indexed) set of topological spaces, and let X be the product of the spaces X(i). The $\kappa$-box product topology on X is the topology generated…

Let $V$ be a real or complex vector space. The finite topology of $V$ consists of all the subsets $U$ for which the intersection $U \cap F$ is closed in $F$ for every finite-dimensional linear subspace of $V$. It is known that if $V$ has…

Let $(X,\tau)$ be a Hausdorff space, where $X$ is an infinite set. The compact complement topology $\tau^{\star}$ on $X$ is defined by: $\tau^{\star}=\{\emptyset\} \cup \{X\setminus M, \text{where $M$ is compact in $(X,\tau)$}\}$. In this…

In this paper we are interested in finding and evaluating cardinal characteristics of the continuum that appear in large-scale topology, usually as the smallest weights of coarse structures that belong to certain classes (indiscrete,…

By a formula of Farber the topological complexity TC(X) of a (p-1)-connected, m-dimensional CW-complex X is bounded above by (2m+1)/p+1. There are also various lower estimates for TC(X) such as the nilpotency of the ring $H^*(X\times…

We prove, via transfinite recursion, the existence, inside any linearly ordered set of appropriate regular cardinality $\lambda$, of a particular kind of well-ordered subsets characterized by the property of $\lambda$-fullness. Let $H$ be a…

In this paper, we have established boundaries of cardinal numbers of nonempty sets in finite non-$T_1$ topological spaces using interval analysis. For a finite set with known cardinality, we give interval estimations based on the closure…

Given a local field $F$ of positive characteristic, an $F$-analytic manifold $X$ and an analytic function $f:X\rightarrow F$, the $F$-analytic log-canonical threshold $\mathrm{lct}_{F}(f;x_{0})$ is the supremum over the values $s\geq0$ such…

It is known that for $X$ a nowhere locally compact metric space, the set of bounded continuous, nowhere locally uniformly continuous real-valued functions on $X$ contains a dense $G_\delta$ set in the space $C_b(X)$ of all bounded…

Assume hat a functionally Hausdorff space $X$ is a continuous image of a \v{C}ech complete space $P$ with Lindel\"of number $l(P)<\mathfrak c$. Then the following conditions are equivalent: (i) every compact subset of $X$ is scattered, (ii)…

We give several characteristic properties of FAC spaces, namely topological spaces with no infinite discrete subspace. The first one was obtained in 2019 by the first author, and states that every closed set is a finite union of irreducible…

The k-limited packing number, $L_k(G)$, of a graph $G$, introduced by Gallant, Gunther, Hartnell, and Rall, is the maximum cardinality of a set $X$ of vertices of $G$ such that every vertex of $G$ has at most $k$ elements of $X$ in its…

We prove that: I. If $L$ is a $T_1$ space, $|L|>1$ and $d(L) \leq \kappa \geq \omega$, then there is a submaximal dense subspace $X$ of $L^{2^\kappa}$ such that $|X|=\Delta(X)=\kappa$; II. If $\frak{c}\leq\kappa=\kappa^\omega<\lambda$ and…

Let $X$ be a completely regular topological space. We study closed ideals $H$ of $C_B(X)$, the normed algebra of bounded continuous scalar-valued mappings on $X$ equipped with pointwise addition and multiplication and the supremum norm,…

We show that if $Y$ is a dense subspace of a Tychonoff space $X$, then $w(X)\leq nw(Y)^{Nag(Y)}$, where $Nag(Y)$ is the Nagami number of $Y$. In particular, if $Y$ is a Lindel\"of $\Sigma$-space, then $w(X)\leq nw(Y)^\omega\leq…

We establish a sharp reciprocity inequality for modulus in compact metric spaces $X$ with finite Hausdorff measure. In particular, when $X$ is also homeomorphic to a planar rectangle, our result answers a question of K. Rajala and M.…

We consider the cardinal invariant CG(X) of the minimal number of weakly compact subsets which generate a Banach space X. We study the behavior of this index when passing to subspaces, its relation with the Lindelof number in the weak…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group. Let $g(G)$ be the smallest positive integer $t$ such that every subset of cardinality $t$ of the group $G$ contains a subset of cardinality $\mathrm{exp}(G)$ whose sum is zero. In this paper, we show that…

A compact Hausdorff space X is called a CO space, if every closed subset of X is homeomorphic to an open subset of X. Every successor ordinal with its order topology is a CO space. We find an explicit characterization of the class K of CO…
