We answer Problem 1 of Monk if there are Boolean algebras B_1,B_2 such that c(B_i) <= lambda_i but c(B_1 x B_2)> lambda_1+ lambda_2 where lambda_1= mu is singular and mu > lambda_2= theta >cf(mu)

We define a class $\mathcal{U}$ of solvable groups of finite abelian section rank which includes all such groups that are virtually torsion-free as well as those that are finitely generated. Assume that $G$ is a group in $\mathcal{U}$ and…

In this paper, we give an affirmative answer to Yamada's Conjecture on free topological groups, which was posed in [K. Yamada, {\it Fr\'echet-Urysohn spaces in free topological groups}, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., {\bf 130}(2002), 2461--2469.].

We characterise Tychonoff spaces X so that C(X) is universally {\sigma}-complete and universally complete, respectively.

This paper approaches the construction of the universal completion of the Riesz space $\mathrm{C}(L)$ of continuous real functions on a completely regular frame $L$ in two different ways. Firstly as the space of continuous real functions on…

In this paper, constructing a class of ideals of $B_1(X)$ from proper ideals of $C(X)$ a one-one correspondence between the class of real maximal ideals of $C(X)$ and those of $B_1(X)$ is established. The collection of all real maximal…

We study free topological groups defined over uniform spaces in some subclasses of the class NA of non-archimedean groups. Our descriptions of the corresponding topologies show that for metrizable uniformities the corresponding free…

Given an infinite topological group G and a cardinal k>0, we say that G is almost k-free if the set of k-tuples in G^k which freely generate free subgroups of G is dense in G^k. In this note we examine groups having this property and…

Given a Tychonoff space $X$, let $A(X)$ be the free Abelian topological group over $X$ in the sense of Markov. For every $n\in\mathbb{N}$, let $A_n(X)$ denote the subspace of $A(X)$ that consists of words of reduced length at most $n$ with…

We prove that, for a Tychonoff space $X$, the space $C_p(X)$ is barrelled if and only if it is a Mackey group.

We study topological versions of an independent set in an abelian group and a linearly independent set in a vector space, a {\em topologically independent set} in a topological group and a {\em topologically linearly independent set} in a…

In this paper we establish that if a Tychonoff space $X$ is \v{C}ech-complete then the space $O_\tau(X)$ of all $\tau$-smooth order-preserving, weakly additive and normed functionals is also \v{C}ech-complete

Let G be a discrete group. We give methods to compute for a generalized (co-)homology theory its values on the Borel construction (EG x X)/G of a proper G-CW-complex X satisfying certain finiteness conditions. In particular we give formulas…

For I a proper, countably complete ideal on P(X) for some set X, can the quotient Boolean algebra P(X)/I be complete? This question was raised by Sikorski in 1949. By a simple projection argument as for measurable cardinals, it can be…

The explicit description of the topology of the free product of topological groups being Hausdorff is given. In particular, it is shown that it coincides with the so-called $X_0$-topology for the corresponding colimit $X$ in the category of…

A topological group $G$ is said to have a local $\omega^\omega$-base if the neighbourhood system at identity admits a monotone cofinal map from the directed set $\omega^\omega$. In particular, every metrizable group is such, but the class…

For a torsion free finitely generated nilpotent group G we naturally associate four finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras over a field of characteristic zero. We show that if G is a relatively free group of some variery of nilpotent…

A topological space $X$ is defined to have a neighborhood $P$-base at any $x\in X$ from some poset $P$ if there exists a neighborhood base $(U_p[x])_{p\in P}$ at $x$ such that $U_p[x]\subseteq U_{p'}[x]$ for all $p\geq p'$ in $P$. We prove…

The absolute logarithmic Weil height is well defined on the group of units of the algebraic closure of the rational numbers, modulo roots of unity, and induces a metric topology on this group. We show that the completion of this metric…
