The present paper improves a result of V. Gutev and T. Nogura (1999) showing that a space $X$ is topologically well-orderable if and only if there exists a selection for $\mathcal{F}_2(X)$ which is continuous with respect to the Fell…

For a Hausdorff space $X$ we denote be $2^X$ the family of all closed subsets of $X$. In this paper we continue to research relationships between closure -type properties of hyperspaces over a space $X$ and covering properties of $X$. We…

Given a Banach space we consider the $\sigma$-ideal of all of its subsets which are covered by countably many hyperplanes and investigate its standard cardinal characteristics as the additivity, the covering number, the uniformity, the…

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…

We show that there exists a bounded pattern of m consecutive primes for any m>0, that means a tuple H_m of m distinct non-negative integers h_i (i=1,2,...m) such that its translations contain arbitrarily long (finite) arithmetic…

It is an interesting, maybe surprising, fact that different dense subspaces of even "nice" topological spaces can have different densities. So, our aim here is to investigate the set of densities of all dense subspaces of a topological…

In a recent advance towards the Prime $k$-tuple Conjecture, Maynard and Tao have shown that if $k$ is sufficiently large in terms of $m$, then for an admissible $k$-tuple $\mathcal{H}(x) = \{gx + h_j\}_{j=1}^k$ of linear forms in…

We say that a topological space $X$ is selectively highly divergent (SHD) if for every sequence of non-empty open sets $\{U_n\mid n\in\omega \}$ of $X$, we can find $x_n\in U_n$ such that the sequence $(x_n)$ has no convergent subsequences.…

The famous Michael selection theorem deals with the characterisation of paracompact spaces by continuous selections of lower semi-continuous mappings in Banach spaces. In this paper, we will discuss several equivalent forms of this theorem,…

Let $F:[0,T]\times\R^n\mapsto 2^{\R^n}$ be a continuous multifunction with compact, not necessarily convex values. In this paper, we prove that, if $F$ satisfies the following Lipschitz Selection Property: \begin{itemize} \item[{(LSP)}]…

We study new relations of the following statements with weak choice principles in ZF and ZFA. 1. There does not exist an infinite Hausdorff space X such that every infinite subset of X contains an infinite compact subset. 2. If a field has…

The continuity problem, i.e., the question whether effective maps between effectively given topological spaces are effectively continuous, is reconsidered. In earlier work it was shown that this is always the case, if the effective map also…

A non-empty subset $A$ of a topological space $X$ is called \emph{finitely non-Hausdorff} if for every non-empty finite subset $F$ of $A$ and every family $\{U_x:x\in F\}$ of open neighborhoods $U_x$ of $x\in F$, $\cap\{U_x:x\in…

Let $(X,\tau)$ be a Hausdorff space, where $X$ is an infinite set. The compact complement topology $\tau^{\star}$ on $X$ is defined by: $\tau^{\star}=\{\emptyset\} \cup \{X\setminus M, \text{where $M$ is compact in $(X,\tau)$}\}$. In this…

Let a finite non-empty X is equipped with discrete topology. We prove that S \subseteq X^\omega is of second category if and only if for each f:\omega -> \bigcup_{n \in \omega} X^n there exists a sequence {a_n}_{n \in \omega} belonging to S…

A denumerable cellular family of a topological space $\mathbf{X}$ is an infinitely countable collection of pairwise disjoint non-empty open sets of $ \mathbf{X}$. It is proved that the following statements are equivalent in $\mathbf{ZF}$:…

Orderability, weak orderability and the existence of continuous weak selections on filter spaces (i.e., spaces with a single non-isolated point) and their products are discussed. We prove that a closed continuous image X of a suborderable…

It is shown that the Schreier space X admits a set of continuum cardinality whose elements are mutually incomparable complemented subspaces spanned by subsequences of the natural Schauder basis of X.

A characterization of $n$-dimensional spaces via continuous selections avoiding $Z_n$-sets is given, and a selection theorem for strongly countable-dimensional spaces is established. We apply these results to prove a generalized Ostrand's…

A topological space has the fixed point property if every continuous self-map of that space has at least one fixed point. We demonstrate that there are serious restraints imposed by the requirement that there be a choice of fixed points…
