A subset $A$ of a topological space $X$ is called relatively functionally countable (RFC) in $X$, if for each continuous function $f : X \to \mathbb{R}$ the set $f[A]$ is countable. We prove that all RFC subsets of a product…
A topological space $X$ is called $\Cal A$-real compact, if every algebra homomorphism from $\Cal A$ to the reals is an evaluation at some point of $X$, where $\Cal A$ is an algebra of continuous functions. Our main interest lies on…
We show that the space of continuous functions over a compact space X admits an equivalent pointwise-lowersemicontinuous locally uniformly rotund norm whenever X admits a fully closed map onto a compact Y such that C(Y) and the spaces of…
A topological space $X$ is called a $Q$-space if every subset of $X$ is of type $F_\sigma$ in $X$. For $i\in\{1,2,3\}$ let $\mathfrak q_i$ be the smallest cardinality of a second-countable $T_i$-space which is not a $Q$-space. It is clear…
Let $X$ be a real or complex Banach space and $T_t:X\to X$ is a power bounded operator (or a $C_0$-semigroup). If there exists a "occasionally" attracting compact subset K (for each x$ in unit ball $\liminf_n \rho(T^n x, K)=0$ then there…
We show that, under suitably general formulations, covering properties, accumulation properties and filter convergence are all equivalent notions. This general correspondence is exemplified in the study of products. Let $X$ be a product of…
We show that there is a compact topological space carrying a measure which is not a weak* limit of finitely supported measures but is in the sequential closure of the set of such measures. We construct compact spaces with measures of…
A.V.Arkhangel'skii asked in 1981 if the variety $\mathfrak V$ of topological groups generated by free topological groups on metrizable spaces coincides with the class of all topological groups. We show that if there exists a real-valued…
The paper contains a very simple proof of the classical Hasumi's theorem that each usco mapping defined on an extremally disconnected space has a continuous selection. The paper also contains a very simple proof of a recent result about…
A topological space $L$ is called a linear ordered topological space (LOTS) whenever there is a linear order $\leq$ on $L$ such that the topology on $L$ is generated by the open sets of the form $(a, b)$ with $a < b$ and $a, b \in L \cup \{…
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…
The path spaces of a directed graph play an important role in the study of graph $\css$. These are topological spaces that were originally constructed using groupoid and inverse semigroup techniques. In this paper, we develop a simple,…
In this paper we establish that if a Tychonoff space $X$ is \v{C}ech-complete then the space $O_\tau(X)$ of all $\tau$-smooth order-preserving, weakly additive and normed functionals is also \v{C}ech-complete
For a compactification $\alpha X$ of a Tychonoff space $X$, the algebra of all functions $f\in C(X)$ that are continuously extendable over $% \alpha X$ is denoted by $C_{\alpha}(X)$. It is shown that, in a model of $\textbf{ZF}$, it may…
A space $X$ is sequentially separable if there is a countable $S\subset X$ such that every point of $X$ is the limit of a sequence of points from $S$. In 2004, N.V. Velichko defined and investigated concepts close to sequentially…
In this brief note we provide a simple approach to give a new proof of the well known fact that the Banach-Alaoglu theorem and the Tychonoff product theorem for compact Hausdorff spaces are equivalent.
We study the question of when an uncountable ccc topological space $X$ contains a ccc subspace of size $\aleph_1$. We show that it does if $X$ is compact Hausdorff and more generally if $X$ is Hausdorff with $\mathrm{pct}(X) \leq \aleph_1$.…
We introduce the notion of an asymptotically equicontinuous sequence of linear operators, and use it to prove the following result. If $X,Y$ are topological vector spaces, if $T_n,T:X\to Y$ are continuous linear maps, and if $D$ is a dense…
As indicated in the title, this paper was inspired by Smithson's work on Arzel\`a-Ascoli theorem. Up to this point, the author's interest in the topic has led him to generalize Arzel\`a-Ascoli theorem in the context of uniform spaces. This…
We give a general closing-off argument in Theorem 2.1 from which several corollaries follow, including (1) if $X$ is a locally compact Hausdorff space then $|X|\leq 2^{wL(X)\psi(X)}$, and (2) if $X$ is a locally compact power homogeneous…
