In this paper we give the functional characteristics of the Rothberger and Menger properties.
We introduce a general notion of covering property, of which many classical definitions are particular instances. Notions of closure under various sorts of convergence, or, more generally, under taking kinds of accumulation points, are…
A classical theorem of Hurewicz characterizes spaces with the Hurewicz covering property as those having bounded continuous images in the Baire space. We give a similar characterization for spaces X which have the Hurewicz property…
We introduce the notion of Q-Borel ideals: ideals which are closed under the Borel moves arising from a poset Q. We study decompositions and homological properties of these ideals, and offer evidence that they interpolate between Borel…
We give, for each level of complexity L, a Hurewicz-like characterization of the Borel subsets with countable sections of a product of two Polish spaces that cannot become in L by changing the two Polish topologies.
In this paper we consider some recent relative versions of Menger property called set strongly star Menger and set star Menger properties and the corresponding Hurewicz-type properties. In particular, using \cite {BMae}, we "easily" prove…
Given a Polish space X and a countable family of analytic hypergraphs on X, I consider the sigma-ideal generated by Borel sets which are anticliques in at least one hypergraph in the family. It turns out that many of the quotient posets are…
We prove that in the Miller model the Menger property is preserved by finite products of metrizable spaces. This answers several open questions and gives another instance of the interplay between classical forcing posets with fusion and…
We propose various problems about Borel complexity of characterized subgroups of compact abelian groups, inspired by our forthcoming paper \cite{DI3}.
Lindel\"of spaces are studied in any basic Topology course. However, there are other interesting covering properties with similar behaviour, such as almost Lindel\"of, weakly Lindel\"of, and quasi-Lindel\"of, that have been considered in…
This article is devoted to the interplay between forcing with fusion and combinatorial covering properties. We discuss known instances of this interplay as well as present a new one, namely that in the Laver model for the consistency of the…
The theorem we prove is a slight strengthening of some results by Just, Miller, Scheepers and Szeptycki [JMSS]. We use the Michael technique instead of the combinatorial approach in the literature. Comments by the submitter: This short…
This is a slightly corrected version of an old work. For a cardinal $\mu$ we give a sufficient condition $\oplus_\mu$ (involving ranks measuring existence of independent sets) for: $\otimes_\mu$ if a Borel set $B\subseteq \mathbb{R} \times…
Let $A$ be a subset of a finite abelian group such that $A$ has a small difference set $A-A$ and the density of $A$ is small. We prove that, counter--intuitively, the smallness (in terms of $|A-A|$) of the Fourier coefficients of $A$…
Using the idea of strong uniform convergence on bornology, Caserta, Di Maio and Ko\v{c}inac studied open covers and selection principles in the realm of metric spaces (associated with a bornology) and function spaces (w.r.t. the topology of…
We show that algebraic analogues of universal group covers, surjective group homomorphisms from a $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space to $F^{\times}$ with "standard kernel", are determined up to isomorphism of the algebraic structure by the…
We present the effective version of the theorem about turning Borel sets in Polish spaces into clopen sets while preserving the Borel structure of the underlying space. We show that under some conditions the emerging parameters can be…
We determine all values of the parameters for which the cell modules form a standard system, for a class of cellular diagram algebras including partition, Brauer, walled Brauer, Temperley-Lieb and Jones algebras. For this, we develop and…
In this short note we prove the Borel conjecture for a family of aspherical manifolds that includes higher graph manifolds.
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…
