In this note we relate some selection principles to metrisability and separability of a manifold. In particular we show that $\sf{S}_{fin}(\mathcal K,\mathcal O)$, $\sf{S}_{fin}(\Omega,\Omega)$ and $\sf{S}_{fin}(\Lambda,\Lambda)$ are each…
In 2017, Tkachuk isolated the closed discrete selection property while working on problems related to function spaces [15]. In this paper we will study the closed discrete selection property and the related games and strategies on $C_k(X)$.…
We establish relationships between various topological selection games involving the space of minimal cusco maps into the real line and the underlying domain. These connections occur across different topologies, including the topology of…
We derive a conditional variational principle of the saturated set for systems with the non-uniform structure. Our result applies to a broad class of systems including beta-shifts, S-gap shifts and their factors.
We add to the theory of preservation of topological properties under forcing. In particular, we answer a question of Gilton and Holshouser in a strong sense, showing that if player II has a winning strategy in the strong countable fan…
Often, a given selection game studied in the literature has a known dual game. In dual games, a winning strategy for a player in either game may be used to create a winning strategy for the opponent in the dual. For example, the Rothberger…
In this work we discuss a random Tug-of-War game in graphs where one of the players has the power to decide at each turn whether to play a round of classical random Tug-of-War, or let the other player choose the new game position in…
We introduce and study Minkowski games. These are two player games, where the players take turns to chose positions in $\mathbb{R}^d$ based on some rules. Variants include boundedness games, where one player wants to keep the positions…
For any classical field configuration or mechanical system with a finite number of degrees of freedom we introduce the concept of topological spectrum. It is based upon the assumption that for any classical configuration there exists a…
In this paper, we defined two new games - the mildly Menger game and the compact-clopen game. In a zero-dimensional space, the Menger game is equivalent to the mildly Menger game and the compact-open game is equivalent to the compact-clopen…
We investigate game-theoretic properties of selection principles related to weaker forms of the Menger and Rothberger properties. For appropriate spaces some of these selection principles are characterized in terms of a corresponding game.…
We establish a network formation game for the Internet's Autonomous System (AS) interconnection topology. The game includes different types of players, accounting for the heterogeneity of ASs in the Internet. We incorporate reliability…
We consider the preservation under products, finite powers, and forcing, of a selection principle based covering property of $T_0$ topological groups. Though the paper is in part a survey, it contributes some new information, including: 1.…
This work presents the selection principle $S_1^*(\tau_x,CD)$ that characterizes $q$-points. We also discuss the induced topological game $G_1^*(\tau_x,CD)$ and its relations with $W$-points and $\widetilde{W}$-points, as well as with the…
We investigate a variety of cut and choose games, their relationship with (generic) large cardinals, and show that they can be used to characterize a number of properties of ideals and of partial orders: certain notions of distributivity,…
By resorting to the vector space structure of finite games, skew-symmetric games (SSGs) are proposed and investigated as a natural subspace of finite games. First of all, for two player games, it is shown that the skew-symmetric games form…
We survey some of the major open problems involving selection principles, diagonalizations, and covering properties in topology and infinite combinatorics. Background details, definitions and motivations are also provided.
The connection between topology and quantum mechanics is one of the cornerstones of modern physics. Several examples of current interest like the Aharonov-Bohm effect in quantum mechanics, monopoles and instantons in quantum field theory,…
We present an analysis of the topologies of a class of networks which are optimal in terms of the requirements of having as short a route as possible between any two nodes while yet keeping the congestion in the network as low as possible.…
A computation in the continuation monad returns a final result given a continuation, ie. it is a function with type $(X \to R) \to R$. If we instead return the intermediate result at $X$ then our computation is called a selection function.…
