For a Tychonoff space $X$, let $C_k(X)$ and $C_p(X)$ be the spaces of real-valued continuous functions $C(X)$ on $X$ endowed with the compact-open topology and the pointwise topology, respectively. If $X$ is compact, the classic result of…

We prove that many completeness properties coincide in metric spaces, precompact groups and dense subgroups of products of separable metric groups. We apply these results to function spaces C_p(X,G) of G-valued continuous functions on a…

The concept of the strong Pytkeev property, recently introduced by Tsaban and Zdomskyy in [32], was successfully applied to the study of the space $C_c(X)$ of all continuous real-valued functions with the compact-open topology on some…

We denote by C_p(X,G) the group of all continuous functions from a space X to a topological group G endowed with the topology of pointwise convergence. We say that spaces X and Y are G-equivalent provided that the topological groups…

For any Tychonoff space $X$ let $C_p(X)$ (resp., $C^*_p(X)$) be the set of all continuous (resp., and bounded) functions on $X$ with the pointwise convergence topology. Given Tychonoff spaces $X$ and $Y$, Uspenskij \cite{us} proved that if…

A Tychonoff space $X$ is called $\kappa$-pseudocompact if for every continuous mapping $f$ of $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^\kappa$ the image $f(X)$ is compact. This notion generalizes pseudocompactness and gives a stratification of spaces lying…

For a Tychonoff space $X$ by $C_p(X)$ we denote the space $C(X)$ of continuous real valued functions on $X$ endowed with the pointwise topology. We prove that an infinite compact space $X$ is scattered if and only if every closed…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be pseudocompact spaces and let the function $\Phi: X\times Y\to \mathbb R$ be separately continuous. The following conditions are equivalent: (1) there is a dense $G_\delta$ subset of $D\subset Y$ so that $\Phi$ is…

Assume that $\mathcal{P}$ is a topological property of a space $X$, then we say that $X$ is {\it dense-$\mathcal{P}$} if each dense subset of $X$ has the property $\mathcal{P}$. In this paper, we mainly discuss dense subsets of a space $X$,…

Cembranos and Freniche proved that for every two infinite compact Hausdorff spaces $X$ and $Y$ the Banach space $C(X\times Y)$ of continuous real-valued functions on $X\times Y$ endowed with the supremum norm contains a complemented copy of…

A topological space $X$ is called almost discrete, if it has precisely one nonisolated point. In this paper, we get that for a countable product $X=\prod X_i$ of almost discrete spaces $X_i$ the space $C_p(X)$ of continuous real-valued…

In our paper [18] we showed that a Tychonoff space $X$ is a $\Delta$-space (in the sense of [20], [30]) if and only if the locally convex space $C_{p}(X)$ is distinguished. Continuing this research, we investigate whether the class $\Delta$…

We prove that for any topological space $X$ of countable tightness, each \sigma-convex subspace $\F$ of the space $SC_p(X)$ of scatteredly continuous real-valued functions on $X$ has network weight $nw(\F)\le nw(X)$. This implies that for a…

Let $X$ be a locally compact topological space, $(Y,d)$ be a boundedly compact metric space and $LB(X,Y)$ be the space of all locally bounded functions from $X$ to $Y$. We characterize compact sets in $LB(X,Y)$ equipped with the topology of…

A space $X$ is called {\it selectively pseudocompact} if for each sequence $(U_{n})_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of pairwise disjoint nonempty open subsets of $X$ there is a sequence $(x_{n})_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of points in $X$ such that $cl_X(\{x_n…

For a completely regular space $X$, denote by $C_p(X)$ the space of continuous real-valued functions on $X$, with the pointwise convergence topology. In this article we strengthen a theorem of O. Okunev concerning preservation of 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…

We give a characterization of countable discrete subspace $A$ of a topological space $X$ such that there exists a (linear) continuous mapping $\varphi:C_p^*(A)\to C_p(X)$ with $\varphi(y)|_A=y$ for every $y\in C_p^*(A)$. Using this…
