The aim of this paper is to solve a linear preserver problem on the function algebra $C(X)$. We show that in case $X$ is a first countable compact Hausdorff space, every linear bijection $\phi:C(X)\to C(X)$ having the property that…

Let $\kappa$ be an infinite regular cardinal. We define a topological space $X$ to be $T_{\kappa-Borel}$-space (resp. a $T_{\kappa-BP}$-space) if for every $x\in X$ the singleton $\{x\}$ belongs to the smallest $\kappa$-additive algebra of…

For an extended locally convex space $(X,\tau)$, in [8], the authors studied the finest locally convex topology (flc topology) $\tau_F$ on $X$ coarser than $\tau$. One can often prove facts about $(X, \tau)$ by applying classical locally…

The structured singular value $\mu_E$ for a linear subspace $E$ of $M_n(\mathbb C)$ is defined by \[ \mu_E(A)=1 / \inf\{\|X\| \ : \ X \in E, \ \det(I_n-AX)=0 \} \quad (A \in M_n(\mathbb{C})), \] and $\mu_E(A)=0$ if there is no $X \in E$…

We extend the well-known Gelfand-Phillips property for Banach spaces to locally convex spaces, defining a locally convex space $E$ to be Gelfand-Phillips if every limited set in $E$ is precompact in the topology on $E$ defined by barrels.…

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…

Let $F$ be a field. For each nonempty subset $X$ of the Zariski-Riemann space of valuation rings of $F$, let ${A}(X) = \bigcap_{V \in X}V$ and ${J}(X) = \bigcap_{V \in X}{\mathfrak M}_V$, where ${\mathfrak M}_V$ denotes the maximal ideal of…

We give an explicit construction of Haar functions associated to a system of dyadic cubes in a geometrically doubling quasi-metric space equipped with a positive Borel measure, and show that these Haar functions form a basis for $L^p$. Next…

We study the quasi-order of topological embeddability on definable functions between Polish zero-dimensional spaces. We first study the descriptive complexity of this quasi-order restricted to the space of continuous functions. Our main…

For a completely regular space $X$, denote by $C_p(X)$ the space of continuous real-valued functions on $X$, with the pointwise convergence topology. In this article we strengthen a theorem of O. Okunev concerning preservation of some…

We investigate the question whether the (I)-envelope of any subset of a dual to a Banach space $X$ may be described as the closed convex hull in a suitable topology. If $X$ contains no copy of $\ell^1$ then the weak topology generated by…

We give a new proof of the following theorem due to W. Weiss and P. Komjath: if $X$ is a regular topological space, with character $ < \mathfrak{b}$ and $X \rightarrow (top \omega + 1)^{1}_{\omega}$, then, for all $\alpha < \omega_1$, $X…

Using the group $G(1)$ of invertible elements and the maximal ideals $\mathfrak{m}_x$ of the commutative algebra $C(X)$ of real-valued functions on a compact regular space $X$, we define a Borel action of the algebra on the measure space…

The topological fundamental group $\pi_{1}^{top}$ is a topological invariant that assigns to each space a quasi-topological group and is discrete on spaces which are well behaved locally. For a totally path-disconnected, Hausdorff, unbased…

If $M$ is a symplectic manifold then the space of smooth loops $\mathrm C^{\infty}(\mathrm S^1,M)$ inherits of a quasi-symplectic form. We will focus in this article on an algebraic analogue of that result. In 2004, Kapranov and Vasserot…

Let $X$ be a closed subscheme embedded in a scheme $W$ smooth over a field ${\bf k}$ of characteristic zero, and let ${\mathcal I}(X)$ be the sheaf of ideals defining $X$. Assume that the set of regular points of $X$ is dense in $X$. We…

Given $\varepsilon_0>0$, $I\in \mathbb{N}\cup \{0\}$ and $K_0,H_0\geq0$, let $X$ be a complete Riemannian $3$-manifold with injectivity radius $\mbox{Inj}(X)\geq \varepsilon_0$ and with the supremum of absolute sectional curvature at most…

The reduced ring order (rr-order) is a natural partial order on a reduced ring $R$ given by $r\le_{\text{rr}} s$ if $r^2=rs$. It can be studied algebraically or topologically in rings of the form $\text{C}(X)$. The focus here is on those…

Let $USC^*_p(X)$ be the topological space of real upper semicontinuous bounded functions defined on $X$ with the subspace topology of the product topology on ${}^X\mathbb{R}$. $\tilde\Phi^{\uparrow},\tilde\Psi^{\uparrow}$ are the sets of…

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…
