We introduce a symmetric operad $\square p$ ("box-op") which describes a certain calculus of rectangular labeled ``boxes''. Algebras over $\square p$, which we call box operads, have appeared under the name of fc multicategories in work by…

We present new results regarding calibers in the function spaces $C_p(X)$. Our main theorem is that $C_p(X)$ is strongly \v{S}anin whenever $X$ is a submetrizable space; this improves an earlier result due to Tkachuk: $C_p(X)$ is \v{S}anin…

By using a similar pattern of arguments, we show that in three categories the collection of isomorphisms forms a residual subset of the space of morphisms. We first consider surjective continuous mappings on Cantor spaces. Next, we look at…

Let $\Ps(\N)$ be the set of all finite subsets of $\N$, endowed with the product topology. A description of the compact subsets of $\Ps(\N)$ is given. Two applications of this result to Banach space theory are shown : (1) a characterization…

For a closed subset $K$ of a compact metric space $A$ possessing an $\alpha$-regular measure $\mu$ with $\mu(K)>0$, we prove that whenever $s>\alpha$, any sequence of weighted minimal Riesz $s$-energy configurations…

In this paper we examine two basic topological properties of partial metric spaces, namely compactness and completeness. Our main result claims that in these spaces compactness is equivalent to sequential compactness. We also show that…

We show that the pair $(C(K),X)$ has the Bishop-Phelps-Bolloba\'as property for operators if $K$ is a compact Hausdorff space and $X$ is a uniformly convex space.

In this paper, we show that if the reduced Fourier-Stieltjes algebra $B_{\rho}(G)$ of a second countable locally compact group $G$ has either weak* fixed point property or asymptotic center property, then $G$ is compact. As a result, we…

Given two Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$, we analyze when the projective tensor product $X\widehat{\otimes}_\pi Y$ has Corson's property (C) or is weakly Lindel\"of determined (WLD), subspace of a weakly compactly generated (WCG) space or…

A classical result of Gelfand shows that the topologized spectrum of characters on commutative Banach algebra is homeomorphic to the underlying space. This fact is used in solving the Calder\'on problem in dimension 2 via the boundary…

Given any compact, Hausdorff space $K$ and $1<p<\infty$, we compute the Szlenk and $w^*$-dentability indices of the spaces $C(K)$ and $L_p(C(K))$. We show that if $K$ is compact, Hausdorff, scattered, $CB(K)$ is the Cantor-Bendixson index…

Let $X$ be a real Banach space and let $Y \subseteq X^*$ be a linear subspace having the Orlicz-Thomas property, that is, for each $\sigma$-algebra $\Sigma$ and for each map $\nu:\Sigma\to X$, the countable additivity of the composition…

We prove a conjecture of Bahri, Bendersky, Cohen and Gitler: if K is a shifted simplicial complex on n vertices, X_1,..., X_n are spaces and CX_i is the cone on X_i, then the polyhedral product determined by K and the pairs (CX_i,X_i) is…

This paper extends the Kadison duality between compact convex sets and function systems to the setting of partial convexity. A partially convex set is a set that is convex in a designated set of convex variables when the others are held…

Given a semiring with a preorder subject to certain conditions, the asymptotic spectrum, as introduced by Strassen (J. reine angew. Math. 1988), is a compact Hausdorff space together with a map from the semiring to the ring of continuous…

A first-order theory has the Schroder-Bernstein property if any two of its models that are elementarily bi-embeddable are isomorphic. We prove that if a countable theory T has the Schroder-Bernstein property then it is classifiable (it is…

A homeomorphism on a compact metric space is said hyper-expansive if every pair of different compact sets are separated by the homeomorphism in the Hausdorff metric. We characterize such dynamics as those with a finite number of orbits and…

We introduce a class of real algebraic varieties characterised by a simple rationality condition, which exhibit strong properties regarding approximation of continuous and smooth mappings by regular ones. They form a natural counterpart to…

We prove that given a locally compact Hausdorff space, $K$, and a compact C$^*$-algebra, $\mathcal{A}$, the C$^*$-algebra $C(K, \mathcal{A})$ satisfies that every convex combination of slices of the closed unit ball is relatively weakly…

The density property for a Stein manifold X implies that the group of holomorphic diffeomorphisms of X is infinite-dimensional and, in a certain well-defined sense, as large as possible. We prove that if G is a complex semisimple Lie group…
