We show a number of undecidable assertions concerning countably compact spaces hold under PFA(S)[S]. We also show the consistency without large cardinals of "every locally compact, perfectly normal space is paracompact".

Under the continuum hypothesis, there is a compact homogeneous strong S-space.

In this paper we continue to study of properties of $S(n)$-spaces. We establish bounded on the cardinality of $S(n)$-spaces.

We show (in ZFC) that the cardinality of a compact homogeneous space of countable tightness is no more than the size of the continuum.

Extending a result of R. de la Vega, we prove that an infinite homogeneous compactum has cardinality $\mathfrak{c}$ if either it is the union of countably many dense or finitely many arbitrary countably tight subspaces. The question if…

We prove that there is a compact separable continuum that (consistently) is not a remainder of the real line.

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…

We show that there are widely-connected spaces of arbitrarily large cardinality, answering a question by David Bellamy.

In this paper, we show that the existence of certain first-countable compact-like extensions is equivalent to the equality between corresponding cardinal characteristics of the continuum. For instance, $\mathfrak b=\mathfrak s=\mathfrak c$…

We prove that the category of c-spaces with continuous maps is not cartesian closed. As a corollary the category of locally finitary compact spaces with continuous maps is also not cartesian closed.

In this paper we show that the compactness of a Loeb space depends on its cardinality, the nonstandard universe it belongs to and the underlying model of set theory we live in. In section 1 we prove that Loeb spaces are compact under…

We construct a normal countably tight $T_1$ space $X$ with $t(X_\delta) >2^\omega$. This is an answer to the question posed by Dow-Juh\'asz-Soukup-Szentmikl\'ossy-Weiss. We also show that if the continuum is not so large, then the tightness…

Let T be the family of open subsets of a topological space (not necessarily Hausdorff or even T_0). We prove that if T has a countable base and is not countable, then T has cardinality at least continuum.

We show that every infinite crowded space can be mapped onto a homogeneous space of countable weight, and that there is a homogeneous space of weight continuum that cannot be mapped onto a homogeneous space of uncountable weight strictly…

If it is consistent that there is a measurable cardinal, then it is consistent that all points g-delta Rothberger spaces have "small" cardinality.

We solve a long standing question due to Arhangel'skii by constructing a compact space which has a $G_\delta$ cover with no continuum-sized ($G_\delta$)-dense subcollection. We also prove that in a countably compact weakly Lindel\"of normal…

A topological space $X$ is said to be {\em $Y$-rigid} if any continuous map $f:X\rightarrow Y$ is constant. In this paper we construct a number of examples of regular countably compact $\mathbb R$-rigid spaces with additional properties…

It is shown that any Banach space X of sufficiently large density contains an (infinite) unconditional sequence and a separable quotient. If a density of X is a weakly compact cardinal, then X contains an unconditional sequence of…

We study the existence of non-separable compact spaces that support a measure and are small from the topological point of view. In particular, we show that under Martin's axiom there is a non-separable compact space supporting a measure…

We consider the compact spaces sigma_n(I) of subsets of an uncountable set I of cardinality at most n and their countable products. We give a complete classification of their Banach spaces of continuous functions and a partial topological…
