Large algebraic structures are found inside the space of sequences of continuous functions on a compact interval having the property that, the series defined by each sequence converges absolutely and uniformly on the interval but the series…
Let $\mathcal X$ be an infinite locally compact separable metric space with metric $\rho$ and let $f : \mathcal X \longrightarrow \mathcal X$ be a continuous weakly mixing map. Let $\beta = \sup \big\{ \rho(x, y): \{x, y \} \subset \mathcal…
Let $X$ be a Hausdorff compact space and $C(X)$ be the algebra of all continuous complex-valued functions on $X$, endowed with the supremum norm. We say that $C(X)$ is (approximately) $n$-th root closed if any function from $C(X)$ is…
A survey is given of the work on strong regularity for uniform algebras over the last thirty years, and some new results are proved, including the following. Let A be a uniform algebra on a compact space X and let E be the set of all those…
It is shown that there exists a normal uniform algebra, on a compact metrizable space, that fails to be strongly regular at some peak point. This answers a 31-year-old question of Joel Feinstein. Our example is R(K) for a certain compact…
The main result of this paper is to show that for any compact space $X$ and any family $\{f_\alpha \colon \alpha< 2^\kappa, f_\alpha \colon X \stackrel{onto}{\longrightarrow} \beta \kappa\}$ of open mappings there exists a point $x \in X$…
Assume $X$ is a variety over $\mathbb{C}$, $A \subseteq \mathbb{C}$ is a finitely generated $\mathbb{Z}$-algebra and $X_A$ a model of $X$ (i.e. $X_A \times_A \mathbb{C} \cong X$). Assuming the weak ordinarity conjecture we show that there…
Let $d_1,...,d_r$ be positive integers and let $I = (F_1,...,F_r)$ be an ideal generated by general forms of degrees $d_1,...,d_r$, respectively, in a polynomial ring $R$ with $n$ variables. When all the degrees are the same we give a…
The main result of this paper is that, under PFA, for every {\em regular} space $X$ with $F(X) = \omega$ we have $|X| \le w(X)^\omega$; in particular, $w(X) \le \mathfrak{c}$ implies $|X| \le \mathfrak{c}$. This complements numerous prior…
Let $M$ be an ANR space and $X$ be a homotopy dense subspace in $M$. Assume that $M$ admits a continuous binary operation $*:M\times M\to M$ such that for every $x,y\in M$ the inclusion $x*y\in X$ holds if and only if $x,y\in X$. Assume…
We study new relations of the following statements with weak choice principles in ZF and ZFA. 1. There does not exist an infinite Hausdorff space X such that every infinite subset of X contains an infinite compact subset. 2. If a field has…
It is proved that if X is a compact Hausdorff space of Lebesgue dimension $\dim(X)$, then the squaring mapping $\alpha_{m} \colon (C(X)_{\mathrm{sa}})^{m} \to C(X)_{+}$, defined by $\alpha_{m}(f_{1},..., f_{m}) = \sum_{i=1}^{m} f_{i}^{2}$,…
We analyze the properties of weakly compact sets in Lipschitz free spaces. Prior research has established that, for a complete metric space $M$, weakly precompact sets in the Lipschitz free space $\mathcal F(M)$ are tight. In this paper, we…
We study $C$-rich spaces, lush spaces, and $C$-extremely regular spaces concerning with the Mazur-Ulam property. We show that a uniform algebra and the real part of a uniform algebra with the supremum norm are $C$-rich spaces, hence lush…
The main result is that, for any projective compact analytic subset A of dimension q>0 in a reduced complex space X, there is a neighborhood U of A such that, for any covering space Z of X in which the lifting B of A has no noncompact…
Let M be a 3-manifold (possibly with boundary). We show that, for any positive integer g, there exists an open nonempty set of metrics on M for each of which there are stable compact embedded minimal surfaces of genus g with arbitrarily…
For a completely regular space $X$, let $C_B(X)$ be the normed algebra of all bounded continuous scalar-valued mappings on $X$ equipped with pointwise addition and multiplication and the supremum norm and let $C_0(X)$ be its subalgebra…
We prove that given a locally compact Hausdorff space, $K$, and a compact C$^*$-algebra, $\mathcal{A}$, the C$^*$-algebra $C(K, \mathcal{A})$ satisfies that every convex combination of slices of the closed unit ball is relatively weakly…
The goal of this paper is to study when uniform Roe algebras have certain $C^*$-algebraic properties in terms of the underlying space: in particular, we study properties like having stable rank one or real rank zero that are thought of as…
A real algebraic variety W of dimension m is said to be uniformly rational if each of its points has a Zariski open neighborhood which is biregularly isomorphic to a Zariski open subset of R^m. Let l be any nonnegative integer. We prove…
