We prove that, for an arbitrary topological space $X$, the following two conditions are equivalent: (a) Every open cover of $X$ has a finite subset with dense union (b) $X$ is $D$-pseudocompact, for every ultrafilter $D$. Locally, our…

In this paper, we introduce the notions of $\alpha$-quasicomplemented and totally $\alpha$-quasicomplemented subspaces and we established some results under these contexts. We show, for example, that if $X$ is a separable or reflexive…

It is proved that for every stratifiable space $Y$ and a closed subset $X\subset Y$ there exists a regular (i.e. linear positive with unit norm) extension operator $T:C(X\times X)\to C(Y\times Y)$ preserving the class of (pseudo)metrics.…

A strong submeasure on a compact metric space X is a sub-linear and bounded operator on the space of continuous functions on X. A strong submeasure is positive if it is non-decreasing. By Hahn-Banach theorem, a positive strong submeasure is…

Let K be a (commutative) field, and U and V be finite-dimensional vector spaces over K. Let S be a linear subspace of the space L(U,V) of all linear operators from U to V. A map F from S to V is called range-compatible when F(s) belongs to…

The hypercube Qn of dimension n is one of the most versatile and powerful interconnection networks. The n-dimensional folded cube denoted as FQn, a variation of the hypercube possesses some embeddable properties that the hypercube does not…

Suppose $k\nmid n$ and $H$ is an $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraph. A near perfect matching in $H$ is a matching of size $\lfloor n/k\rfloor$. We give a divisibility barrier construction that prevents the existence of near perfect matchings…

This paper studies the C-compact-open topology on the set C(X) of all realvalued continuous functions on a Tychonov space X and compares this topology with several well-known and lesser known topologies. We investigate the properties…

We prove that if E a subset of an n-dimensional manifold, then every continuous R^n-valued map on E that is zero-free on the interior of E can be approximated in the fine topology, and hence, in particular, in the uniform topology, by a…

Let $S$ be a compact oriented surface. We construct homogeneous quasimorphisms on $Diff(S, area)$, on $Diff_0(S, area)$ and on $Ham(S)$ generalizing the constructions of Gambaudo-Ghys and Polterovich. We prove that there are infinitely many…

We study biharmonic maps between conformally compact manifolds, a large class of complete manifolds with bounded geometry, asymptotically negative curvature, and smooth compactification. These metrics provide a far-reaching generalization…

The perfect conductivity problem concerns optimal bounds for the magnitude of an electric field in the presence of almost touching perfect conductors. This reduces to obtaining gradient estimates for harmonic functions with Dirichlet…

For a metrizable space $X$ and a finite measure space $(\Omega,\mathfrak{M},\mu)$ let $M_{\mu}(X)$ and $M^f_{\mu}(X)$ be the spaces of all equivalence classes (under the relation of equality almost everywhere mod $\mu$) of…

Compact metric spaces form an important class of metric spaces, but the category that they define lacks many important properties such as completeness and cocompleteness. In recent studies of "metric domain theory" and Stone-type dualities,…

Let $X$ be a metrizable space and ${\rm Comp}(X)$ be the hyperspace consisting of non-empty compact subsets of $X$ endowed with the Vietoris topology. In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on $X$ for ${\rm Comp}(X)$ to…

We study certain topological problems that are inspired by applications to autonomous robot manipulation. Consider a continuous map $f\colon X\to Y$, where $f$ can be a kinematic map from the configuration space $X$ to the working space $Y$…

In recent years, considerable advances have been made in the study of properties of metric spaces in terms of their doubling dimension. This line of research has not only enhanced our understanding of finite metrics, but has also resulted…

We observe that the category of topological space, uniform spaces, and simplicial sets are all, in a natural way, full subcategories of the same larger category, namely the simplicial category of filters; this is, moreover, implicit in the…

The problem of characterizing normed ordered spaces which admit a representation in the algebraic, order and norm sense as a subspace of $C(X)$, the space of all continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space is a classical problem that…

Let Pi: M -> B be an onto maximal rank map or a Riemannian submersion between Riemannian manifolds M and B. Initially, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for any fiber F to be roughly isometric to M. Then, we prove necessary and…
