We give a partial solution to a question by Alas, Junqueria and Wilson by proving that under PFA the one-point compactification of a locally compact, discretely generated and countably tight space is also discretely generated. After this,…

A subset of a topological space is constructible if it is a finite Boolean combination of closed sets. We prove that every NTP$_2$ expansion of $(\mathbb{R},<,+)$ by constructible sets defines only constructible sets, and that definable…

There are several compactification procedures in topology, but there is only one standard discretization, namely, replacing the original topology with the discrete topology. We give a notion of discretization which is dual (in categorical…

We use topological methods to study complexity of deep computations and limit computations. We use topology of function spaces, specifically, the classification Rosenthal compacta, to identify new complexity classes. We use the language of…

A topological group is constructed which is homotopy equivalent to the pointed loop space of a path-connected Riemannian manifold $M$ and which is given in terms of "composable small geodesics" on $M$. This model is analogous to J. Milnor's…

A topological measure on a locally compact space is a set function on open and closed subsets which is finitely additive on the collection of open and compact sets, inner regular on open sets, and outer regular on closed sets. Almost all…

We provide a complete classification of the possible cofinal structures of the families of precompact (totally bounded) sets in general metric spaces, and compact sets in general complete metric spaces. Using this classification, we…

For every finite closure space $X$ one can define a finite topological space $\operatorname{Top} X$ together with a natural projection $\operatorname{Top} X\longrightarrow X$. This could allow to apply the techniques of topological…

The purpose of this paper is to describe an analogue of a construction of Costello in the context of finite-dimensional differential graded Frobenius algebras which produces closed forms on the decorated moduli space of Riemann surfaces. We…

The paper introduces the class of O-metric spaces, a novel generalization of metric-type spaces, classifying almost all possible metric types into upward and downward O-metrics. We list some topologies arising from O-metrics and discuss…

A convenient bicategory of topological stacks is constructed which is both complete and Cartesian closed. This bicategory, called the bicategory of compactly generated stacks, is the analogue of classical topological stacks, but for a…

We use topological consequences of PFA, MA$_{\omega_1}$(S)[S] and PFA(S)[S] proved by other authors to show that normal first countable linearly H-closed spaces with various additionals properties are compact in these models.

We analyze the effective content of countable, second countable topological spaces by directly calculating the complexity of several topologically defined index sets. We focus on the separation principles, calibrating an arithmetic…

Some results in C_k-theory are obtained with the use of bornologies. We investigate under which conditions the space of the continuous real functions with the compact-open topology is a productively countably tight space, which yields some…

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…

All constructive methods employed in modern mathematics produce only countable sets, even when designed to transcend countability. We show that any constructive argument for uncountability -- excluding diagonalization techniques --…

An Alexandroff space is a topological space in which every intersection of open sets is open. There is one to one correspondence between Alexandroff $T_0$-spaces and partially ordered sets (posets). We investigate Alexandroff…

Finite automata were used to determine multiple addresses in number systems and to find topological properties of self-affine tiles and finite type fractals. We join these two lines of research by axiomatically defining automata which…

A topological space is called P_2 ( P_3, P_{<omega} ) if and only if it does not contain two (three, finitely many) uncountable open sets with empty intersection. We show that (i) there are 0-dimensional P_{<omega} spaces of size 2^omega,…
