We investigate game-theoretic properties of selection principles related to weaker forms of the Menger and Rothberger properties. For appropriate spaces some of these selection principles are characterized in terms of a corresponding game.…
Hindman's celebrated Finite Sums Theorem, and its high-dimensional version due to Milliken and Taylor, are extended from covers of countable sets to covers of arbitrary topological spaces with Menger's classic covering property. The methods…
The main result provide a common generalization for Ramsey-type theorems concerning finite colorings of edge sets of complete graphs with vertices in infinite semigroups. We capture the essence of theorems proved in different fields: for…
We explore the connections between selection games on Hausdorff spaces and their corresponding Vietoris space of compact subsets. These considerations offer a similar relationship as the well-known relationship between $\omega$-covers of…
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…
The point selection theorem says that the convex hull of any finite point set contains a point that lies in a positive proportion of the simplices determined by that set. This paper proves several new volumetric versions of this theorem…
Arhangelskii's properties $\alpha_2$ and $\alpha_4$ defined for convergent sequences may be characterized in terms of Scheeper's selection principles. We generalize these results to hold for more general collections and consider these…
Haver's near-selection theorem deals with approximate selections of Hausdorff continuous CE-valued mappings defined on $\sigma$-compact metrizable $C$-spaces. In the present paper, we extend this theorem to all paracompact $C$-spaces. The…
This article is devoted to the interplay between forcing with fusion and combinatorial covering properties. We discuss known instances of this interplay as well as present a new one, namely that in the Laver model for the consistency of the…
We introduce the notions of weakly *-concave and weakly naturally quasi-concave correspondence and prove fixed point theorems and continuous selection theorems for these kind of correspondences. As applications in the game theory, by using…
We offer a new proof of the Furstenberg-Katznelson multiple recurrence theorem for several commuting probability-preserving transformations T_1, T_2, >..., T_d: \bbZ\curvearrowright (X,\S,\mu), and so, via the Furstenberg correspondence…
We continue to explore the ways in which high-level topological connections arise from connections between fundamental features of the spaces, in this case focusing on star-selection principles in Pixley-Roy hyperspaces and uniform spaces.…
We study a natural measurable selection problem for which the standard uniformisation theorems do not seem to apply directly, yet a Borel selector exists. More precisely, we consider families of finite dimensional functions that admit…
In this paper we study the selection principle of closed discrete selection, first researched by Tkachuk in [13] and strengthened by Clontz, Holshouser in [3], in set-open topologies on the space of continuous real-valued functions.…
We show that on every product probability space, Boolean functions with small total influences are essentially the ones that are almost measurable with respect to certain natural sub-sigma algebras. This theorem in particular describes the…
We develop a new technique that allows us to show in a unified way that many well-known combinatorial theorems, including Tur\'an's theorem, Szemer\'edi's theorem and Ramsey's theorem, hold almost surely inside sparse random sets. For…
In this paper we prove finiteness principles for $C^{m}\left( \mathbb{R}^{n}, \mathbb{R}^{D}\right) $-selection, and for $C^{m-1,1}\left( \mathbb{R}^{n}, \mathbb{R}^{D}\right) $-selection, in particular providing a proof for a conjecture of…
Using the idea of strong uniform convergence on bornology, Caserta, Di Maio and Ko\v{c}inac studied open covers and selection principles in the realm of metric spaces (associated with a bornology) and function spaces (w.r.t. the topology of…
The stability rule for belief, advocated by Leitgeb [Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 164, 2013], is a rule for rational acceptance that captures categorical belief in terms of $\textit{probabilistically stable propositions}$: propositions…
We study the preservation of selective covering properties, including classic ones introduced by Menger, Hurewicz, Rothberger, Gerlits and Nagy, and others, under products with some major families of concentrated sets of reals. Our methods…
