A ballean (or coarse structure) is a set endowed with some family of subsets, the balls, is such a way that balleans with corresponding morphisms can be considered as asymptotic counterparts of uniform topological spaces. For a ballean…
A ballean $\mathcal{B}$ (or a coarse structure) on a set $X$ is a family of subsets of $X$ called balls (or entourages of the diagonal in $X\times X$) defined in such a way that $\mathcal{B}$ can be considered as the asymptotic counterpart…
A set $X$ endowed with a coarse structure is called ballean or coarse space. For a ballean $(X, \mathcal{E})$, we say that two subsets $A$, $B$ of $X$ are close (linked) if there exists an entourage $E\in \mathcal{E}$ such that $A\subseteq…
A vector balleans is a vector space over $\mathbb{R}$ endowed with a coarse structure in such a way that the vector operations are coarse mappings. We prove that, for every ballean $(X, \mathcal{E})$, there exists the unique free vector…
A ballean is a set endowed with some family of its subsets which are called the balls. We postulate the properties of the family of balls in such a way that the balleans can be considered as the asymptotic counterparts of the uniform…
A ballean is a set $X$ endowed with some family $\F$ of its subsets, called the balls, in such a way that $(X,\F)$ can be considered as an asymptotic counterpart of a uniform topological space. Given a cardinal $\kappa$, we define $\F$…
By a ballean we understand a set $X$ endowed with a family of entourages which is a base of some coarse structure on $X$. Given two unbounded ballean $X,Y$ with normal product $X\times Y$, we prove that the balleans $X,Y$ have bounded…
A ballean is a set endowed with a coarse structure. We introduce and explore three constructions of balleans from a pregiven family of balleans: bornological products, bouquets and combs. We analyze the smallest and the largest coarse…
For every ballean $X$ we introduce two cardinal characteristics $cov^\flat(X)$ and $cov^\sharp(X)$ describing the capacity of balls in $X$. We observe that these cardinal characteristics are invariant under coarse equivalence and prove that…
For a bornology $\mathcal B$ on a cardinal $\kappa$, we prove that the $\mathcal B$-macrocube is normal if and only if $\mathcal B$ has a linearly ordered base. As a corollary, we get that the hyperballean of bounded subsets of an…
For every metric space $X$ we introduce two cardinal characteristics $\mathrm{cov}^\flat(X)$ and $\mathrm{cov}^\sharp(X)$ describing the capacity of balls in $X$. We prove that these cardinal characteristics are invariant under coarse…
A (generalized) topological space is called an iso-dense space if the set of all its isolated points is dense in the space. The main aim of the article is to show in $\mathbf{ZF}$ a new characterization of iso-dense spaces in terms of…
A bounded subset of a normed linear space is said to be (diametrically) complete if it cannot be enlarged without increasing the diameter. A complete super set of a bounded set $K$ having the same diameter as $K$ is called a completion of…
We define a 2-normal surface to be one which intersects every 3-simplex of a triangulated 3-manifold in normal triangles and quadrilaterals, with one or two exceptions. The possible exceptions are a pair of octagons, a pair of unknotted…
A coarse space $X$, endowed with a linear order compatible with the coarse structure of $X$, is called linearly ordered. We prove that every linearly ordered coarse space $X$ is locally convex and the asymptotic dimension of $X$ is either…
Given a Banach space $\mathcal X$, let $x$ be a point in $\text{ball}(\mathcal X)$, the closed unit ball of $\mathcal X$. One says that $x$ is a strongly extreme point of $\text{ball}(\mathcal X)$ if it has the following property: for every…
A configuration of lattice vectors is supernormal if it contains a Hilbert basis for every cone spanned by a subset. We study such configurations from various perspectives, including triangulations, integer programming and Groebner bases.…
We say that a (countably dimensional) topological vector space $X$ is orbital if there is $T\in L(X)$ and a vector $x\in X$ such that $X$ is the linear span of the orbit ${T^nx:n=0,1,...}$. We say that $X$ is strongly orbital if,…
In this paper, we consider spaces whose Higson coronae are indecomposable continua. We show that for a non-compact proper metric space $X$ which is coarsely geodesic and has coarse bounded geometry, the Higson corona of $X$ is an…
We prove that each coarsely homogenous separable metric space $X$ is coarsely equivalent to one of the spaces: the sigleton, the Cantor macro-cube or the Baire macro-space. This classification is derived from coarse characterizations of the…
