Any unital separable continuous C(X)-algebra with properly infinite fibres is properly infinite as soon as the compact Hausdorff space X has finite topolog-ical dimension. We study conditions under which this is still the case if the…
Motivated by results of Juh\'asz and van Mill in [13], we define the cardinal invariant $wt(X)$, the weak tightness of a topological space $X$, and show that $|X|\leq 2^{L(X)wt(X)\psi(X)}$ for any Hausdorff space $X$ (Theorem 2.8). As…
An $\omega_1$-compact space is a space in which every closed discrete subspace is countable. We give various general conditions under which a locally compact, $\omega_1$-compact space is $\sigma$-countably compact, i.e., the union of…
Let $F=\{\mathbf{p}_0,\ldots,\mathbf{p}_n\}$ be a collection of points in $\mathbb{R}^d.$ The set $F$ naturally gives rise to a family of iterated function systems consisting of contractions of the form $$S_i(\mathbf{x})=\lambda \mathbf{x}…
Let $(X,L)$ be a polarized variety over a number field. We suppose that $L$ is an hermitian line bundle. Let $M$ be a non compact Riemann Surface and $U\subset M$ be a relatively compact open set. Let $\varphi:M\to X({\Bbb C})$ be a…
We study the maximal multiplicity locus of a variety $X$ over a field of characteristic $p>0$ that is provided with a finite surjective radical morphism $\delta:X\rightarrow V$, where $V$ is regular, for example, when…
We say that a set is exhaustible if it admits algorithmic universal quantification for continuous predicates in finite time, and searchable if there is an algorithm that, given any continuous predicate, either selects an element for which…
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 $\mathcal X$ be an infinite locally compact separable metric space with metric $\rho$ and let $f : \mathcal X \longrightarrow \mathcal X$ be a continuous weakly mixing map. Let $\beta = \sup \big\{ \rho(x, y): \{x, y \} \subset \mathcal…
Arhangel'skii proved that if a first countable Hausdorff space is Lindel\"of, then its cardinality is at most $2^{\aleph_0}$. Such a clean upper bound for Lindel\"of spaces in the larger class of spaces whose points are ${\sf G}_{\delta}$…
We consider the question as to whether the exponent of a computably presentable Lebesgue space whose dimension is at least 2 must be computable. We show this very natural conjecture is true when the exponent is at least 2 or when the space…
In this paper we show that if X is an infinite compactum cleavable over an ordinal, then X must be homeomorphic to an ordinal. X must also therefore be a LOTS. This answers two fundamental questions in the area of cleavability. We also…
A space is od-compact (resp. od-Lindel\"of) provided any cover by open dense sets has a finite (resp. countable) subcover. We first show with simple examples that these properties behave quite poorly under finite or countable unions. We…
The deck, $\mathcal{D}(X)$, of a topological space $X$ is the set $\mathcal{D}(X)=\{[X \setminus \{x\}]\colon x \in X\}$, where $[Y]$ denotes the homeomorphism class of $Y$. A space $X$ is (topologically) reconstructible if whenever…
For a Tychonoff space $X$, $B_1(X)$ denotes the space of all Baire-one functions on $X$ endowed with the pointwise topology. We prove that the following assertions are equivalent: (1) $B_1(X)$ is a (semi-)Montel space, (2) $B_1(X)$ is a…
We construct a consistent example of a topological space $Y=X \cup \{\infty\}$ such that: 1) $Y$ is regular. 2) Every $G_\delta$ subset of $Y$ is open. 3) The point $\infty$ is not isolated, but it is not in the closure of any discrete…
A coarse compactification of a proper metric space $X$ is any compactification of $X$ that is dominated by its Higson compactification. In this paper we describe the maximal coarse compactification of $X$ whose corona is of dimension $0$.…
It is well-known that every non-isolated point in a compact Hausdorff space is the accumulation point of a discrete subset. Answering a question raised by Z. Szentmiklossy and the first author, we show that this statement fails for…
We investigate $\mathcal F$-Borel topological spaces. We focus on finding out how a~complexity of a~space depends on where the~space is embedded. Of a~particular interest is the~problem of determining whether a~complexity of given space $X$…
