We give a partial answer to the following question of Dobrinen: For a given topological Ramsey space $\mathcal{R}$, are the notions of selective for $\mathcal{R}$ and Ramsey for $\mathcal{R}$ equivalent? Every topological Ramsey space…

The first examples of formations which are arboreous (and therefore Hall) but not freely indexed (and therefore not locally extensible) are found. Likewise, the first examples of solvable formations which are freely indexed and arboreous…

The main result of this paper is that, under PFA, for every {\em regular} space $X$ with $F(X) = \omega$ we have $|X| \le w(X)^\omega$; in particular, $w(X) \le \mathfrak{c}$ implies $|X| \le \mathfrak{c}$. This complements numerous prior…

The main results of this note are: It is consistent that every subparacompact space $X$ of size $\omega_1$ is a $D$-space; If there exists a Michael space, then all productively Lindel\"of spaces have the Menger property, and, therefore,…

In this note we present a ZFC construction of a non-meager filter which fails to be countable dense homogeneous. This answers a question of Hern\'andez-Guti\'errez and Hru\v{s}\'ak. The method of the proof also allows us to obtain a…

The primary objective of this work is to construct spaces that are "pseudocompact but not countably compact," abbreviated as PNC, while endowing them with additional properties. First, motivated by an old problem of van Douwen, we construct…

We show that the problem whether every $1$-separably injective Banach space contains an isomorphic copy of $\ell_\infty$ is undecidable. Namely, unlike under the continuum hypothesis, assuming Martin's axiom and the negation of the…

A topological space $X$ is $\mathbb R^{\omega_1}$-factorizable if any continuous function $f\colon X\to \mathbb R^{\omega_1}$ factors through a continuous function from $X$ to a second-countable space. It is shown that a Tychonoff space $X$…

This article explores the model-dependent nature of set cardinality, emphasizing that cardinality is not absolute but varies across different axiomatic frameworks. Although Cantor's diagonal argument shows the real numbers are…

A space is od-compact (resp. od-Lindel\"of) provided any cover by open dense sets has a finite (resp. countable) subcover. We first show with simple examples that these properties behave quite poorly under finite or countable unions. We…

The class of $L\Sigma(\leq\omega)$-spaces was introduced in 2006 by Kubi\'s, Okunev and Szeptycki as a natural refinement of the classical and important notion of Lindel\"of $\Sigma$-spaces. Compact $L\Sigma(\leq\omega)$-spaces were…

In the absence of the Axiom of Choice, necessary and sufficient conditions for a locally compact Hausdorff space to have all non-empty second-countable compact Hausdorff spaces as remainders are given in $\mathbf{ZF}$. Among other…

Shape(-and-scale) spaces - configuration spaces for generalized Kendall-type Shape(-and-Scale) Theories - are usually not manifolds but stratified manifolds. While in Kendall's own case - similarity shapes - the shape spaces are…

Let H be a countable subgroup of the metrizable compact abelian group G and f:H -> T=R/Z a (not necessarily continuous) character of H. Then there exists a sequence (chi_n)_n of (continuous) characters of G such that lim_n chi_n(alpha) =…

A combinatorial characterization of measurable filters on a countable set is found. We apply it to the problem of measurability of the intersection of nonmeasurable filters.

CWH, CWN stand for collectionwise Hausdorff and collectionwise normal respectively. We analyze the statement "there is a lambda-CWH not CWH first countable (Hausdorff topological) space". We prove the existence of such a space under various…

We answer several questions of V. Tka\v{c}uk from [Point-countable $\pi$-bases in first countable and similar spaces, Fund. Math. 186 (2005), pp. 55--69.] by showing that (1) there is a ZFC example of a first countable, 0-dimensional…

We prove that there exists uncountably many pairwise disjoint open subsets of the Gelfand space of the measure algebra on any locally compact non-discrete abelian group which shows that this space is not separable (in fact, we prove this…

Generalizations of the theorems of Eberlein and Grothendieck on the precompactness of subsets of function spaces are considered: if $X$ is a countably compact space and $C_p(X)$ is a space of continuous functions in the pointwise topology…
