We consider finite approximations of a topological space $M$ by noncommutative lattices of points. These lattices are structure spaces of noncommutative $C^*$-algebras which in turn approximate the algebra $\cc(M)$ of continuous functions…

Given a collection of n opaque unit disks in the plane, we want to find a stacking order for them that maximizes their visible perimeter---the total length of all pieces of their boundaries visible from above. We prove that if the centers…

We study complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in an open region of the de Sitter space $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}_{1}$ which is known as the steady state space $\mathcal{H}^{n+1}$. In this setting, under suitable constraints on the behavior of…

In the paper an answer to a problem "When different orders of R(X) (where R is a real closed field) lead to the same real place ?" is given. We use this result to show that the space of $\mathbb R$-places of the field $\textbf{R}(Y)$ (where…

A classical theorem of Hechler asserts that the structure $\left(\omega^\omega,\le^*\right)$ is universal in the sense that for any $\sigma$-directed poset P with no maximal element, there is a ccc forcing extension in which…

The question whether there is a Lindelof Q-set space or Lindelof $\Delta$-set space is considered. We show that J. Moore's ZFC $L$-space is not a Q-set space in ZFC and, assuming all Aronszajn trees are special, it is not a $\Delta$-set…

We show that in an arbitrarily fixed conformal class on a closed manifold, the upper bound condition of the total scalar curvature is $C^{0}$-closed if its Yamabe constant is nonpositive. Moreover, we show that if a conformal class on a…

We prove that a closed convex subset $C$ of a real Hilbert space $X$ has the fixed point property for $(c)$-mappings if and only if $C$ is bounded. Some convergence results about the iterations are obtained.

Using the Continuum Hyporthesis, we prove that there is a Menger-bounded (also called o-bounded) subgroup of the Baer-Specker group Z^N, whose square is not Menger-bounded. This settles a major open problem concerning boundedness notions…

We give a sufficient condition for a $^*$-algebra with a specified basis to have an enveloping $C^*$-algebra. Particularizing to the setting of a Hecke algebra $\h(G,\gm)$, we show that under a suitable assumption not only we can assure…

We show that the statement ``In every separable pseudometric space there is a maximal non-strictly \delta-separated set.'' implies the axiom of choice for countable families of sets. This gives answers to a question of Dybowski and…

We prove that the central sequence algebra of a separable C*-algebra is either subhomogeneous or non-exact, confirming a conjecture of Enders and Shulman. We also prove analogous dichotomy for other massive C*-algebras.

We prove that if $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^N$ is a set with finite perimeter with $\mathscr{H}^{N-1}(\partial \Omega\setminus\partial^* \Omega)=0$, then any set of finite perimeter $E\subseteq\mathbb{R}^N$ can be approximated by a…

M. Talagrand showed that, for the Cech-Stone compactification \beta\omega\ of the space of natural numbers, the norm and the weak topology generate different Borel structures in the Banach space C(\beta\omega). We prove that the Borel…

We show that, for every set of $n$ points in the $d$-dimensional unit cube, there is an empty axis-parallel box of volume at least $\Omega(d/n)$ as $n\to\infty$ and $d$ is fixed. In the opposite direction, we give a construction without an…

We prove a $Z$-set unknotting theorem for Nobeling spaces. This generalizes a result obtained by S. Ageev for a restricted class of $Z$-sets. The theorem is proved for a certain model of Nobeling spaces.

For any left orderable group G, we recall from work of McCleary that isolated points in the space of left orderings correspond to basic elements in the free lattice ordered group over G. We then establish a new connection between the…

Recall that a $P$-set is a closed set $X$ such that the intersection of countably many neighborhoods of $X$ is again a neighborhood of $X$. We show that if $\mathfrak{t} = \mathfrak{c}$ then there is a minimal right ideal of $(\beta \mathbb…

We show that it is not provable in ZFC that any two countable elementarily equivalent structures have isomorphic ultrapowers relative to some ultrafilter on omega .

In this paper, we establish coincidence fixed point and common fixed point theorems for two mapping in complete $C^*$-algebra-valued metric spaces which satisfy new contractive conditions. Some applications of our obtained results are…
