A topological space $X$ is called submaximal if every dense subset of $X$ is open. In this paper, we show that if $\beta X$, the Stone-\v{C}ech compactification of $X$, is a submaximal space, then $X$ is a compact space and hence $\beta…

In a recent paper O. Pavlov proved the following two interesting resolvability results: (1) If a space $X$ satisfies $\Delta(X) > \ps(X)$ then $X$ is maximally resolvable. (2) If a $T_3$-space $X$ satisfies $\Delta(X) > \pe(X)$ then $X$ is…

In our paper [18] we showed that a Tychonoff space $X$ is a $\Delta$-space (in the sense of [20], [30]) if and only if the locally convex space $C_{p}(X)$ is distinguished. Continuing this research, we investigate whether the class $\Delta$…

For a topological space $X$ we propose to call a subset $S \subset X$ "free in $X$" if it admits a well-ordering that turns it into a free sequence in $X$. The well-known cardinal function $F(X)$ is then definable as $\sup\{|S| : S \text{…

A topological space is called P_2 ( P_3, P_{<omega} ) if and only if it does not contain two (three, finitely many) uncountable open sets with empty intersection. We show that (i) there are 0-dimensional P_{<omega} spaces of size 2^omega,…

Let $\kappa$ be an infinite regular cardinal. We define a topological space $X$ to be $T_{\kappa-Borel}$-space (resp. a $T_{\kappa-BP}$-space) if for every $x\in X$ the singleton $\{x\}$ belongs to the smallest $\kappa$-additive algebra of…

A space $X$ is said to be $\kappa$-resolvable (resp. almost $\kappa$-resolvable) if it contains $\kappa$ dense sets that are pairwise disjoint (resp. almost disjoint over the ideal of nowhere dense subsets). $X$ is maximally resolvable iff…

As it was introduced by Tkachuk and Wilson, a topological space $X$ is cellular-compact if given any cellular, i.e. disjoint, family $\mathcal U$ of non-empty open subsets of $X$ there is a compact subspace $K\subset X$ such that $K\cap…

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…

A topological space $X$ is called strongly $\sigma$-metrizable if $X=\bigcup_{n\in\omega}X_n$ for an increasing sequence $(X_n)_{n\in\omega}$ of closed metrizable subspaces such that every convergence sequence in $X$ is contained in some…

Let X be a topological space. The closure of \Delta = {(x, x) : x \in X} in X \times X is a symmetric relation on X. We characterise those equivalence relations on an infinite set that arise as the closure of the diagonal with respect to a…

We prove the following results. 1. If $X$ is a $\alpha$-favourable space, $Y$ is a regular space, in which every separable closed set is compact, and $f:X\times Y\to\mathbb R$ is a separately continuous everywhere jointly discontinuous…

It is an interesting, maybe surprising, fact that different dense subspaces of even "nice" topological spaces can have different densities. So, our aim here is to investigate the set of densities of all dense subspaces of a topological…

$\Delta$-spaces have been defined by a natural generalization of a classical notion of $\Delta$-sets of reals to Tychonoff topological spaces; moreover, the class $\Delta$ of all $\Delta$-spaces consists precisely of those $X$ for which the…

It is shown that if a $T_2$ topological space $X$ contains a closed uncountable discrete subspace, then the spaces $(\omega_1 + 1)^{\omega}$ and $(\omega_1 + 1)^{\omega_1}$ embed into $(CL(X),\tau_F)$, the hyperspace of nonempty closed…

A compact topological space X is spectral if it is sober (i.e., every irreducible closed set is the closure of a unique singleton) and the compact open subsets of X form a basis of the topology of X, closed under finite intersections.…

For a topological space $X$, let $X_\delta$ be the space $X$ with $G_\delta$-topology of $X$. For an uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we prove that the following are equivalent: (1) $\kappa$ is $\omega_1$-strongly compact. (2) For every…

A space $X$ is called {\it selectively pseudocompact} if for each sequence $(U_{n})_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of pairwise disjoint nonempty open subsets of $X$ there is a sequence $(x_{n})_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of points in $X$ such that $cl_X(\{x_n…

The deck of a topological space $X$ is the set $\mathcal{D}(X)=\{[X \setminus \{x\}] \colon x \in X\}$, where $[Z]$ denotes the homeomorphism class of $Z$. A space $X$ is topologically reconstructible if whenever…

A topological space $X$ is called almost discretely Lindel\"of if every discrete set $D \subset X$ is included in a Lindel\"of subspace of $X$. We say that the space $X$ is {\em $\mu$-sequential} if for every non-closed set $A \subset X$…
