We say that a topological space $X$ is selectively highly divergent (SHD) if for every sequence of non-empty open sets $\{U_n\mid n\in\omega \}$ of $X$, we can find $x_n\in U_n$ such that the sequence $(x_n)$ has no convergent subsequences.…

For many years, there have been conducting research (e.g. by Bergelson, Furstenberg, Kojman, Kubi\'{s}, Shelah, Szeptycki, Weiss) into sequentially compact spaces that are, in a sense, topological counterparts of some combinatorial…

We prove that, for any Hausdorff continuum X, if dim X > 1 then the hyperspace C(X) of subcontinua of X is not a C-space; if dim X = 1 and X is hereditarily indecomposable then dim C(X) = 2 or C(X) is not a C-space. This generalizes results…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $Conv_H(X)$ be the space of non-empty closed convex subsets of $X$, endowed with the Hausdorff metric $d_H$. We prove that each connected component of the space $Conv_H(X)$ is homeomorphic to one of the spaces:…

We introduce a method that allows to turn topological questions about Hindman spaces into purely combinatorial questions about the Kat\v{e}tov order of ideals on $\mathbb{N}$. We also provide two applications of the method. (1) We…

Optimal transport enables one to construct a metric on the set of (sufficiently small at infinity) probability measures on any (not too wild) metric space X, called its Wasserstein space W(X). In this paper we investigate the geometry of…

The symbol $\mathcal{S}(X)$ denotes the hyperspace of finite unions of convergent sequences in a Hausdorff space $X$. This hyperspace is endowed with the Vietoris topology. First of all, we give a characterization of convergent sequence in…

We call a nonempty subset $A$ of a topological space $X$ finitely non-Urysohn if for every nonempty finite subset $F$ of $A$ and every family $\{U_x:x\in F\}$ of open neighborhoods $U_x$ of $x\in F$, $\cap\{\mathrm{cl}(U_x):x\in…

A topological space $X$ is selectively highly divergent (SHD) if for every sequence of non-empty open subsets $\{U_n: n\in \omega \}$ of $X$, we can pick a point $x_n\in U_n$, for every $n<\omega$, such that the sequence $\{x_n:…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space. By $2^X$ we denote the hyperspace of all closed and non-empty subsets of $X$ endowed with the Hausdorff metric. Let $f:X\to X$ be a continuous function. In this paper we study some topological properties…

We deal with a conjectured dichotomy for compact Hausdorff spaces: each such space contains a non-trivial converging omega-sequence or a non-trivial converging omega_1-sequence. We establish that this dichotomy holds in a variety of models;…

Consider a Hausdorff space (X,T) and a set C of converging nets in X. By virtue of the limit uniqueness, the relation Lim which assigns each member x of X to every net N lying in C that converges to x is a map. Of course, structuring C with…

For a Tychonoff space $X$ and a family $\lambda$ of subsets of $X$, we denote by $C_{\lambda}(X)$ the space of all real-valued continuous functions on $X$ with the set-open topology. In this paper, we study the Menger and projective Menger…

Suppose that $\mathcal{X}$ is a sequentially complete Hausdorff locally convex space over a scalar field $\mathbb{K}$, $V$ is a bounded subset of $\mathcal{X}$, $(a_n)_{n\ge 0}$ is a sequence in $\mathbb{K}\setminus\{0\}$ with the property\…

The $\pi_n$-wild set $\mathbf{w}_{n}(X)$ of a topological space $X$ is the subspace of $X$ consisting of the points at which there exists a shrinking sequence of essential based maps $S^n\to X$. In this paper, we show that the homotopy type…

We investigate path-, ray- and branch spaces of trees, certain topological spaces naturally associated with order theoretic trees, and provide topological characterisations for these spaces in terms of the existence of certain kinds of…

A space $X$ is od-Menger if it satisfies $\mathsf{U_{fin}}(\Delta_X, \mathcal{O}_X)$, where $\mathcal{O}_X,\Delta_X$ are the collection of covers of $X$ by respectively open subsets and open dense subsets. We show that under CH, there is a…

Let ${\rm Fin}(X)$ be the hyperspace consisting of non-empty finite subsets of a space $X$ endowed with the Vietoris topology. In this paper, we characterize a metrizable space $X$ whose hyperspace ${\rm Fin}(X)$ is homeomorphic to the…

Let $H$ be an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal G}_{\infty}(H)$ be the set of all closed subspaces of $H$ whose dimension and codimension both are infinite. We investigate (not necessarily surjective)…

Let $X$ be a compact, Hausdorff topological space. Then $H^M_n(X)=0$ for all $n>0$, where $H_n$ is the multivalued analogue of singular homology. The case $n=1$ is already known [8].
