We investigate the connections between computability theory and Nonstandard Analysis. In particular, we investigate the two following topics and show that they are intimately related. (T.1) A basic property of Cantor space $2^{\mathbb{N}}$…
We characterize the compactness properties of the product of \lambda\ copies of the space \omega\ with the discrete topology, dealing in particular with the case \lambda\ singular, using regular and uniform ultrafilters, infinitary…
We prove that, under CH, any space with a regular $G_\delta$-diagonal and caliber $\omega_1$ is separable; a corollary of this result answers, under CH, a question of Buzyakova. For any Urysohn space $X$, we establish the inequality $|X|\le…
The purpose of this note is to record a consequence, for general metric spaces, of a recent result of David Bate. We prove the following fact: Let $X$ be a compact metric space of topological dimension $n$. Suppose that the $n$-dimensional…
In this article we investigate which compact spaces remain compact under countably closed forcing. We prove that, assuming the Continuum Hypothesis, the natural generalizations to $\omega_1$-sequences of the selection principle and…
We call a space $X$ {\it weakly linearly Lindel\"of} if for any family $\mathcal{U}$ of non-empty open subsets of $X$ of regular uncountable cardinality $\kappa$, there exists a point $x\in X$ such that every neighborhood of $x$ meets…
A result of G. Godefroy asserts that a Banach space $X$ contains an isomorphic copy of $\ell_1$ if and only if there is an equivalent norm $|||\cdot|||$ such that, for every finite-dimensional subspace $Y$ of $X$ and every $\varepsilon>0$,…
We construct a compact Hausdorff space $K$ such that the space $P(K)$ of Radon probabiblity measures on $K$ considered with the weak$^*$ topology (induced from the space of continuous functions $C(K)$) is countably tight which is a…
We prove several reflection theorems on $D$-spaces, which are Hausdorff topological spaces $X$ in which for every open neighbourhood assignment $U$ there is a closed discrete subspace $D$ such that \[ \bigcup\{U(x): x\in D\}=X. \] The…

We show (in ZFC) that the cardinality of a compact homogeneous space of countable tightness is no more than the size of the continuum.
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…
Let $\beta_1,\beta_2>1$ and $T_i(x,y) = \bigl(\frac{x+i}{\beta_1}, \frac{y+i}{\beta_2}\bigr),\ i\in\{\pm1\}$. Let $A := A_{\beta_1, \beta_2}$ be the unique compact set satisfying $A = T_{1}(A) \cup T_{-1}(A)$. In this paper we give a…
Let $CLB_H(X)$ denote the hyperspace of closed bounded subsets of a metric space $X$, endowed with the Hausdorff metric topology. We prove, among others, that natural dense subspaces of $CLB_H(R^m)$ of all nowhere dense closed sets, of all…
The density topology $\cal T$ is a topology on the real line, finer than the usual topology, having as its open sets the measurable subsets of ${\mathbb R}$, which are of density 1 at each of their points. The aim of this paper is to…
We say that a Tychonoff space $X$ is a $\kappa$-space if it is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of $C_p(Y)$ for some locally compact space $Y$. The class of $\kappa$-spaces is strictly between the class of Dieudonn\'{e} complete spaces and…
We study the combination of two o-minimal extensions of the theory of real closed fields: one by a T-convex subring and the other by a T-derivation. Let T be a complete, model complete o-minimal extension of RCF. We show that the combined…
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…
Generalizing de Vries Compactification Theorem and strengthening Leader Local Compactification Theorem, we describe the partially ordered set $(\LL(X),\le)$ of all (up to equivalence) locally compact Hausdorff extensions of a Tychonoff…
We show that it is consistent that for some uncountable cardinal k, all compactifications of the countable discrete space with remainders homeomorphic to $D^k$ are homeomorphic to each other. On the other hand, there are $2^c$ pairwise…
