We consider Lorentzian manifolds as examples of partially ordered measure spaces, sets endowed with compatible partial order relations and measures, in this case given by the causal structure and the volume element defined by each…
We show that countable metric spaces always have quantum isometry groups, thus extending the class of metric spaces known to possess such universal quantum-group actions. Motivated by this existence problem we define and study the notion of…
Transforming an asymmetric system into a symmetric system makes it possible to exploit the simplifying properties of symmetry in control problems. We define and characterize the family of symmetrizable systems, which can be transformed into…
Tree convex sets refer to a collection of sets such that each set in the collection is a subtree of a tree whose nodes are the elements of these sets. They extend the concept of row convex sets each of which is an interval over a total…
We identify a class of subspaces of ordered spaces $\mathcal L$ for which the following statement holds: If $f:X\to L\in \mathcal L$ is a continuous bijections of a zero-dimensional space $X$, then $f$ can be re-routed via a…
We prove that, for every cardinal number $\alpha\geq {\mathfrak c}$, there exists a metrizable space $X$ with $|X|=\alpha$ such that for every pair of quasiorders $\leq_1$, $\leq_2$ on a set $Q$ with $|Q| \leq \alpha$ satisfying the…
An orthogonality space is a set equipped with a symmetric and irreflexive binary relation. We consider orthogonality spaces with the additional property that any collection of mutually orthogonal elements gives rise to the structure of a…
Here we classify all topological spaces where all bijections to itself are homeomorphisms. As a consequence, we also classify all topological spaces where all maps to itself are continuous. Analogously, we classify all measurable spaces…
A metric space $\mathbf{X}$ is called densely complete if there exists a dense set $D$ in $\mathbf{X}$ such that every Cauchy sequence of points of $D $ converges in $\mathbf{X}$. One of the main aims of this work is to prove that the…
A metric space X is straight if for each finite cover of X by closed sets, and for each real valued function f on X, if f is uniformly continuous on each set of the cover, then f is uniformly continuous on the whole of X. A locally…
We prove that a closed convex subset $C$ of a complete linear metric space $X$ is polyhedral in its closed linear hull if and only if no infinite subset $A\subset X\backslash C$ can be hidden behind $C$ in the sense $[x,y]\cap C\not =…
The main result of this article is: THEOREM. Every homogeneous locally conical connected separable metric space that is not a $1$-manifold is strongly $n$-homogeneous for each $n \geq 2$ and countable dense homogeneous. Furthermore,…
In a countably normed space which is a linear space equipped with a countable number of pair-wise compatible norms, we prove the existence of a common nearest point (in all norms) from a point outside a nonempty subset if this subset is…
A matrix (and any associated linear system) will be referred to as structured if it has a small displacement rank. It is known that the inverse of a structured matrix is structured, which allows fast inversion (or solution), and reduced…
We introduce the notion of asymptotic cohomology based on the bounded cohomology and define cohomological asymptotic dimension $\as_{\Z} X$ of metric spaces. We show that it agrees with the asymptotic dimension $\as X$ when the later is…
Metrizable spaces are studied in which every closed set is an $\alpha$-limit set for some continuous map and some point. It is shown that this property is enjoyed by every space containing sufficiently many arcs (formalized in the notion of…
A topological space $X$ is called strongly $\sigma$-metrizable if $X=\bigcup_{n\in\omega}X_n$ for an increasing sequence $(X_n)_{n\in\omega}$ of closed metrizable subspaces such that every convergence sequence in $X$ is contained in some…
For every metric space $X$ we introduce two cardinal characteristics $\mathrm{cov}^\flat(X)$ and $\mathrm{cov}^\sharp(X)$ describing the capacity of balls in $X$. We prove that these cardinal characteristics are invariant under coarse…
Let X be a real normed vector space and dim X \ge 2. Let d>0 be a fixed real number. We prove that if x,y \in X and ||x-y||/d is a rational number then there exists a finite set {x,y} \subseteq S(x,y) \subseteq X with the following…
In continuous logic, there are plenty of examples of interesting stable metric structures. However, on the other side of the SOP line, there are only a few metric structures where order is relevant, and orders often appear in different…
