A set of reals $X$ is $\mathfrak{b}$-concentrated if it has cardinality at least $\mathfrak{b}$ and it contains a countable set $D\subseteq X$ such that each closed subset of $X$ disjoint with $D$ has size smaller than $\mathfrak{b}$. We…

Let $(a_n)_{n \geq 1}$ be a sequence of distinct positive integers. In a recent paper Rudnick established asymptotic upper bounds for the minimal gaps of $\{a_n \alpha \bmod 1, 1 \leq n \leq N\}$ as $N \to \infty$, valid for Lebesgue-almost…

Cardinal characteristics of the continuum represent the boundaries in size between the countable and the continuum with respect to certain properties of sets. They are often defined as the minimum sizes of families of reals that meet some…

The concept of the strong Pytkeev property, recently introduced by Tsaban and Zdomskyy in [32], was successfully applied to the study of the space $C_c(X)$ of all continuous real-valued functions with the compact-open topology on some…

We develop the semifilter approach to the classical Menger and Hurewicz covering properties and show that the small cardinal g is a lower bound of the additivity number of the family of Menger subspaces of the Baire space, and under u< g…

We will give an overview of four families of cardinal characteristics defined on subspaces $\prod_{\alpha\in\kappa}b(\alpha)$ of the generalised Baire space ${}^\kappa\kappa$, where $\kappa$ is strongly inaccessible and…

We describe a framework for proving consistency results about singular cardinals of arbitrary cofinality and their successors. This framework allows the construction of models in which the Singular Cardinals Hypothesis fails at a singular…

In the setting of Carnot groups, we are concerned with the rectifiability problem for subsets that have finite sub-Riemannian perimeter. We introduce a new notion of rectifiability that is, possibly, weaker than the one introduced by…

Following D. Sobota we call a family $\mathcal F$ of infinite subsets of $\mathbb N$ a Rosenthal family if it can replace the family of all infinite subsets of $\mathbb N$ in classical Rosenthal's Lemma concerning sequences of measures on…

Inspired by work of Scheepers and Tall, we use properties defined by topological games to provide bounds for the cardinality of topological spaces. We obtain a partial answer to an old question of Bell, Ginsburg and Woods regarding the…

Generalizing the notion of a tight almost disjoint family, we introduce the notions of a {\em tight eventually different} family of functions in Baire space and a {\em tight eventually different set of permutations} of $\omega$. Such sets…

Sapirovskii [18] proved that $|X|\leq\pi\chi(X)^{c(X)\psi(X)}$, for a regular space $X$. We introduce the $\theta$-pseudocharacter of a Urysohn space $X$, denoted by $\psi_\theta (X)$, and prove that the previous inequality holds for…

For a set $X\sbst\R$, let $B(X)\sbst\R^X$ denote the space of Borel real-valued functions on $X$, with the topology inherited from the Tychonoff product $\R^X$. Assume that for each countable $A\sbst B(X)$, each $f$ in the closure of $A$ is…

Burzyk, Kli\'{s} and Lipecki proved that every topological vector space (tvs) $E$ with the property $(K)$ is a Baire space. K\c{a}kol and S\'{a}nchez Ruiz proved that every sequentially complete Fr\'{e}chet--Urysohn locally convex space…

The pinning down number $pd(X)$ of a topological space $X$ is the smallest cardinal $\kappa$ such that for every neighborhood assignment $\mathcal{U}$ on $X$ there is a set of size $\kappa$ that meets every member of $\mathcal{U}$. Clearly,…

Let $(X,\tau)$ be a Hausdorff space and $n\in\omega$. We prove that if $X$ admits a continuous selection over $\mathcal{F}_{n}(X)$ (nonempty subsets of $X$ of cardinality at most $n$), then for every $n\leq m\leq 2n$ such that $m$ is not a…

Motivated by results of Juh\'asz and van Mill in [13], we define the cardinal invariant $wt(X)$, the weak tightness of a topological space $X$, and show that $|X|\leq 2^{L(X)wt(X)\psi(X)}$ for any Hausdorff space $X$ (Theorem 2.8). As…

Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional space and $C_c(X)$ be the set of all continuous real valued functions on $X$ with countable image. In this article we denote by $C_c^K(X)$ (resp., $C_{c}^{\psi}(X)$) the set of all functions in $C_c(X)$ with…

We prove that it is consistent with ZFC that for every non-decreasing function $f:[0,1]\to [0,1]$, each subset of $[0,1]$ of cardinality $\mathfrak c$ contains a set of cardinality $\mathfrak c$ on which $f$ is uniformly continuous. We show…

Being motivated by the study of the space $C_c(X)$ of all continuous real-valued functions on a Tychonoff space $X$ with the compact-open topology, we introduced in [15] the concepts of a $cp$-network and a $cn$-network (at a point $x$) in…
