Completeness for a (topological) space is often based on the existence of special structures (such as metrics, uniformities, proximities, convergences, etc) that explicitly induce the topology, making the completeness induction-dependent.…

Topological groups whose underlying spaces are basically disconnected, $F$-, or $F'$-spaces but not $P$-spaces are considered. It is proved, in particular, that the existence of a Lindel\"of basically disconnected topological group which is…

We present several known and new results on the Baire category properties in topological groups. In particular, we prove that a Baire topological group $X$ is metrizable if and only if $X$ is point-cosmic if and only if $X$ is a…

It is shown by Houdayer-Isono that a group measure space von Neumann algebra is a full factor if the group is countable discrete and bi-exact, and the action is strongly ergodic, essentially free and non-singular. Recently, bi-exactness for…

A topological space $X$ is defined to have an $\omega^\omega$-base if at each point $x\in X$ the space $X$ has a neighborhood base $(U_\alpha[x])_{\alpha\in\omega^\omega}$ such that $U_\beta[x]\subset U_\alpha[x]$ for all $\alpha\le\beta$…

A proof of the Borel completeness of torsion free abelian groups is presented. This proof differs considerably from the approach of Paolini-Shelah.

We prove that a finitely generated group $G$ is virtually free if and only if there exists a generating set for $G$ and $k > 0$ such that all $k$-locally geodesic words with respect to that generating set are geodesic.

A topological group $X$ is defined to have $compact$ $exponent$ if for some number $n\in\mathbb N$ the set $\{x^n:x\in X\}$ has compact closure in $X$. Any such number $n$ will be called a compact exponent of $X$. Our principal result…

A theorem of A. Weil asserts that a topological group embeds as a (dense) subgroup of a locally compact group if and only if it contains a non-empty precompact open set; such groups are called locally precompact. Within the class of locally…

The result often known as Joiner's lemma is fundamental in understanding the topology of the free topological group $F(X)$ on a Tychonoff space$X$. In this paper, an analogue of Joiner's lemma for the free paratopological group $\FP(X)$ on…

In [9] we proved that the space of countable torsion-free abelian groups is Borel complete. In this paper we show that our construction from [9] satisfies several additional properties of interest. We deduce from this that countable…

We prove a compactness theorem for full Boolean-valued models. As an application, we show that if $T$ is a complete countable theory and $\mathcal{B}$ is a complete Boolean algebra, then $\lambda^+$-saturated $\mathcal{B}$-valued models of…

A torsion-free abelian group B of arbitrary rank is called a B_1-group if Bext^1(B,T)=0 for every torsion abelian group T, where Bext^1 denotes the group of equivalence classes of all balanced exact extensions of T by B. It is a…

A subset $X$ of an abelian $G$ is said to be {\em complete} if every element of the subgroup generated by $X$ can be expressed as a nonempty sum of distinct elements from $X$. Let $A\subset \Z_n$ be such that all the elements of $A$ are…

Let $X$ be a $\Q$-factorial complete toric variety over an algebraic closed field of characteristic $0$. There is a canonical injection of the Picard group ${\rm Pic}(X)$ in the group ${\rm Cl}(X)$ of classes of Weil divisors. These two…

Can one detect free products of groups via their profinite completions? We answer positively among virtually free groups. More precisely, we prove that a subgroup of a finitely generated virtually free group $G$ is a free factor if and only…

Two (strongly) zero-dimensional Lindel\"of topological groups whose product has positive covering dimension are constructed. An example of a Lindel\"of (strongly) zero-dimensional space whose free and free Abelian topological groups are not…

We give a complete description of the topological spaces $X$ such that the free abelian topological group $A(X)$ embeds into the free abelian topological group $A(I)$ of the closed unit interval. In particular, the free abelian topological…

It is proved that fundamental groups of boolean representable simplicial complexes are free and the rank is determined by the number and nature of the connected components of their graph of flats for dimension $\geq 2$. In the case of…

Given a topological ring $R$, we study semitopological $R$-modules, construct their completions, Bohr and borno modifications. For every topological space $X$, we construct the free (semi)topological $R$-module over $X$ and prove that for a…
