An inverse limit of a sequence of covering spaces over a given space $X$ is not, in general, a covering space over $X$ but is still a lifting space, i.e. a Hurewicz fibration with unique path lifting property. Of particular interest are…
A Banach space X is said to have the Tsirelson property if it does not contain subspaces that are isomorphic to l_{p}, p in [1,infty) or c_{0}. The article contains a quite simple method to producing Banach spaces with the Tsirelson…
We construct, using mild combinatorial hypotheses, a real Menger set that is not Scheepers, and two real sets that are Menger in all finite powers, with a non-Menger product. By a forcing-theoretic argument, we show that the same holds in…
The Noetherian type of a space is the least k for which the space has a k^op-like base, i.e., a base in which no element has k-many supersets. We prove some results about Noetherian types of (generalized) ordered spaces and products…
We prove that the Berkovich space of the algebra of bounded analytic functions on the open unit disk of an algebraically closed nonarchimedean field contains multiplicative seminorms that are not norms and whose kernel is not a maximal…
The recently proposed concept of metamaterials has opened exciting venues to control wave-matter interaction in unprecedented ways. Here we demonstrate the relevance of metamaterials for inducing acoustic birefringence, a phenomenon which…
Hyperuniform structures possess the ability to confine and drive light, although their fabrication is extremely challenging. Here we demonstrate that speckle patters obtained by a superposition of randomly arranged sources of Bessel beams…
We demonstrate that a reproducing kernel Hilbert or Banach space of functions on a separable absolute Borel space or an analytic subset of a Polish space is separable if it possesses a Borel measurable feature map.
The tropical Stiefel map associates to a tropical matrix A its tropical Pluecker vector of maximal minors, and thus a tropical linear space L(A). We call the L(A)s obtained in this way Stiefel tropical linear spaces. We prove that they are…
The set of matrix tuples with invariant subspaces whose dimensions sum up to the dimension of the space, but which do not span the whole space form an algebraic hypersurface. We found the equation of this hypersurface. This generalizes…
This paper investigates factorial $W^*$-bundles and their ultraproducts. More precisely, a $W^*$-bundle is factorial if the von Neumann algebras associated to its fibers are all factors. Let $M$ be the tracial ultraproduct of a family of…
We investigate the structure of ultrafilters on Boolean algebras in the framework of Tukey reducibility. In particular, this paper provides several techniques to construct ultrafilters which are not Tukey maximal. Furthermore, we connect…
We answer a question of Piotr Minc by proving that there is no compact metrizable space whose set of components contains a unique topological copy of every metrizable compactification of a ray (i.e. a half-open interval) with an arc (i.e.…
We show that if A is an abelian category satisfying certain mild conditions, then one can introduce the concept of a moduli space of (semi)stable objects which has the structure of a projective algebraic variety. This idea is applied to…
We study ultrafilters on $\omega^2$ produced by forcing with the quotient of $\scr P(\omega^2)$ by the Fubini square of the Fr\'echet filter on $\omega$. We show that such an ultrafilter is a weak P-point but not a P-point and that the only…
According to a folklore characterization of supercompact spaces, a compact Hausdorff space is supercompact if and only if it has a binary closed $k$-network. This characterization suggests to call a topological space $super$ if it has a…
We develop the notion of coherent ultrafilters (extenders without normality or well-foundedness). We then use definable coherent ultraproducts to characterize any extension of a model $M$ in any fragment of $\mathbb{L}_{\infty, \omega}$…
The paper deals with pretangent spaces to general metric spaces. An ltrametricity criterion for pretangent spaces is found and it is closely related to the metric betweenness in the pretangent spaces.
A space $ X $ is said to be set star-Lindel\"{o}f (resp., set strongly star-Lindel\"{o}f) if for each nonempty subset $ A $ of $ X $ and each collection $ \mathcal{U} $ of open sets in $ X $ such that $ \overline{A} \subseteq \bigcup…
We formulate a variational principle for a collection of projectors in an indefinite inner product space. The existence of minimizers is proved in various situations.
