In this paper we characterize [strict] o-boundedness of the free (abelian) topological group F(X) (A(X)) as well as the free locally-convex linear topological space L(X) in terms of properties of a Tychonoff space X. These properties appear…
In this paper we discuss what kind of constrains combinatorial covering properties of Menger, Scheepers, and Hurewicz impose on remainders of topological groups. For instance, we show that such a remainder is Hurewicz if and only it is…
In this paper we formulate three problems concerning topological properties of sets generating Borel non-sigma-compact groups. In case of the concrete F_\sigma\delta-subgroup of the Cantor group this gives an equivalent reformulation of the…
Let G be a group acting geometrically on a CAT(0) cube complex X. We prove first that G is hyperbolic relative to the collection P of subgroups if and only if the simplicial boundary of X is the disjoint union of a nonempty discrete set,…
We show that even for subsets X of the real line which do not contain perfect sets, the Hurewicz property does not imply the property S1(Gamma,Gamma), asserting that for each countable family of open gamma-covers of X, there is a choice…
We consider the preservation under products, finite powers, and forcing, of a selection principle based covering property of $T_0$ topological groups. Though the paper is in part a survey, it contributes some new information, including: 1.…
Ando, Matsuzawa, Thom, and T\"ornquist have resolved a problem by Sorin Popa by constructing an example of a Polish group of unitary operators with the strong operator topology, whose left and right uniform structures coincide, but which…
We show that countable increasing unions preserve a large family of well-studied covering properties, which are not necessarily sigma-additive. Using this, together with infinite-combinatorial methods and simple forcing theoretic methods,…
Assuming the absence of Q-points (which is consistent with ZFC) we prove that the free topological group $F(X)$ over a Tychonov space $X$ is $o$-bounded if and only if every continuous metrizable image $T$ of $X$ satisfies the selection…
In this paper, we introduced $\alpha$-Hurewicz $\&$ $\theta$-Hurewicz properties in a topological space $X$ and investigated their relationship with other selective covering properties. We have shown that for an extremally disconnected…
We give examples of groups G such that G^00 is different from G^000. We also prove that for groups G definable in an o-minimal structure, G has a "bounded orbit" iff G is definably amenable. These results answer questions of Gismatullin,…
A group $G$ is called hereditarily non-topologizable if, for every $H\le G$, no quotient of $H$ admits a non-discrete Hausdorff topology. We construct first examples of infinite hereditarily non-topologizable groups. This allows us to prove…
A topological group G is defined to have property (OB) if any G-action by isometries on a metric space, which is separately continuous, has bounded orbits. We study this topological analogue of the socalled Bergman property in the context…
The group of homeomorphisms of the closed interval that are absolutely continuous and have an absolutely continuous inverse was shown by Solecki to admit a natural Polish group topology $\tau_{ac}$. We show that, under mild conditions on a…
Menger's basis property is a generalization of $\sigma$-compactness and admits an elegant combinatorial interpretation. We introduce a general combinatorial method to construct non $\sigma$-compact sets of reals with Menger's property.…
A topological space is reversible if each continuous bijection of it onto itself is open. We introduce an analogue of this notion in the category of topological groups: A topological group G is g-reversible if every continuous automorphism…
Suppose $G$ is a locally solid lattice group. It is known that there are non-equivalent classes of bounded homomorphisms on $G$ which have topological structures. In this paper, our attempt is to assign lattice structures on them. More…
We prove that if $G$ is a totally bounded abelian group \st\ its dual group $\widehat{G}_p$ equipped with the finite-open topology is a Baire group, then every compact subset of $G$ must be finite. This solves an open question by Chasco,…
We define a group as strongly bounded if every isometric action on a metric space has bounded orbits. This latter property is equivalent to the so-called uncountable strong cofinality, recently introduced by G. Bergman. Our main result is…
In this paper we construct consistent examples of subgroups of $2^\omega$ with Menger remainders which fail to have other stronger combinatorial covering properties. This answers several open questions asked by Bella, Tokgoz and Zdomskyy…
