We introduce a ZFC method that enables us to build spaces (in fact special dense subspaces of certain Cantor cubes) in which we have "full control" over all dense subsets. Using this method we are able to construct, in ZFC, for each…
A space $X$ is submaximal if any dense subset of $X$ is open. In this paper, we prove that every submaximal topological gyrogroup of non-measurable cardinality is strongly $\sigma$-discrete. Moreover, we prove that every submaximal strongly…
We consider 9 natural tightness conditions for topological spaces that are all variations on countable tightness and investigate the interrelationships between them. Several natural open problems are raised.
We work in set-theory without choice $\ZF$. Given a closed subset $F$ of $[0,1]^I$ which is a bounded subset of $\ell^1(I)$ ({\em resp.} such that $F \subseteq \ell^0(I)$), we show that the countable axiom of choice for finite subsets of…
Say that a cardinal number $\kappa$ is \emph{small} relative to the space $X$ if $\kappa <\Delta(X)$, where $\Delta(X)$ is the least cardinality of a non-empty open set in $X$. We prove that no Baire metric space can be covered by a small…
Building on results of Medvedev, we construct a $\mathsf{ZFC}$ example of a non-Polish topological group that is countable dense homogeneous. Our example is a dense subgroup of $\mathbb{Z}^\omega$ of size $\mathfrak{b}$ that is a…
A cuf space (set, resp.) is a space (set, resp.) which is a countable union of finite subspaces (subsets, resp.). It is proved in $\mathbf{ZF}$ (with the absence of the axiom of choice) that all countable unions of cuf (denumerable, resp.)…
Generalizations of the theorems of Eberlein and Grothendieck on the precompactness of subsets of function spaces are considered: if $X$ is a countably compact space and $C_p(X)$ is a space of continuous functions in the pointwise topology…
In this paper we establish a connection between categorical closedness and topologizability of semigroups. In particular, for a class $\mathsf T_{\!1}\mathsf S$ of $T_1$ topological semigroups we prove that a countable semigroup $X$ with…
We answer a question of Yasui. Morever, we show that if a Tychonoff space Y is countably 1-paracompact in every Tychonoff space X that contains Y as a closed subspace then Y is linearly Lindelof.
A space is functionally countable if every real-valued continuous function has countable image. A stronger property recently defined by Tkachuk is exponentially separability. We start by studying these properties in GO spaces, where we…
We prove that: 1. If a Hausdorff M-space is a continuous closed image of a submetrizable space, then it is metrizable. 2. A dense-in-itself open-closed image of a submetrizable space is submetrizable if and only if it is functionally…
We revisit the definition of effective local compactness, and propose an approach that works for arbitrary countably-based spaces extending the previous work on computable metric spaces. We use this to show that effective local compactness…
We use $\diamondsuit$ to construct, for every $\alpha\leq\omega_1$ a sequential countably compact topological group of sequential order $\alpha$. This establishes the independence of the existence of sequential countably compact non…
We study the existence of non-separable compact spaces that support a measure and are small from the topological point of view. In particular, we show that under Martin's axiom there is a non-separable compact space supporting a measure…
We consider the following variation of the Scarborough-Stone problem: Is $X^\kappa$ always countably compact whenever $X$ is separable and sequentially compact?
We address a problem posed in [1] by demonstrating through an example that, in the absence of separability, the property of sequential cone compactness does not generally imply cone compactness.
We prove that a compact space $K$ embeds into a $\sigma$-product of compact metrizable spaces ($\sigma$-product of intervals) if and only if $K$ is (strongly countable-dimensional) hereditarily metalindel\"of and every subspace of $K$ has a…
The coincidence of the $\Ind$ and $\dim$ dimensions for first countable paracompact $\sigma$-spaces is proved. This gives a positive answer to A. V. Arkhangel'skii's question of whether the dimensions $\ind X$, $\Ind X$, and $\dim X$ are…
We construct, in locally compact, second countable, amenable groups, sets with large density that fail to have certain combinatorial properties. For the property of being a shift of a set of measurable recurrence we show that this is…
