Let M be a 3-manifold (possibly with boundary). We show that, for any positive integer g, there exists an open nonempty set of metrics on M for each of which there are stable compact embedded minimal surfaces of genus g with arbitrarily…

If $(X,d)$ is a metric space then the map $f\colon X\to X$ is defined to be a weak contraction if $d(f(x),f(y))<d(x,y)$ for all $x,y\in X$, $x\neq y$. We determine the simplest non-closed sets $X\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ in the sense of…

A topological space is called {\it dense-separable} if each dense subset of its is separable. Therefore, each dense-separable space is separable. We establish some basic properties of dense-separable topological groups. We prove that each…

Prompted by a recent question of G. Hjorth as to whether a bounded Urysohn space is indivisible, that is to say has the property that any partition into finitely many pieces has one piece which contains an isometric copy of the space, we…

In this paper we prove that, for a compact group $G$, a metrizable $G$-space is a $G$-ANR under the following asumptions: (1) if it dominates a $G$-ANR space through a fine $G$-homotopy equivalence; (2) if it is $G$-homotopy dense in a…

A compact space X is I-favorable if, and only if X can be representing as a limit of $\sigma$-complete inverse system of compact metrizable spaces with skeletal bonding maps.

We provide an alternative view of some results in [1, 3, 11]. In particular, we prove that (1) if a continuous self-map of a compact metric space has the shadowing, then the union of the basins of terminal chain components is a dense…

Given a topological property $P$, we say that the space $X$ is $P$-generated if for any subset $A\subset X$ that is not open in $X$ there is a subspace $Y \subset X$ with property $P$ such that $A\cap Y$ is not open in $Y$. (Of course, in…

We prove that any compact Berkovich space over the field of Laurent series over an arbitrary field is angelic. In particular, is it sequentially compact.

The Noetherian type of a space is the least k for which the space has a k^op-like base, i.e., a base in which no element has k-many supersets. We prove some results about Noetherian types of (generalized) ordered spaces and products…

We show that a linearly ordered topological space is initially \lambda-compact if and only if it is \lambda-bounded, that is, every set of cardinality $\leq \lambda$ has compact closure. As a consequence, every product of initially…

We investigate which definable separable metric spaces are countable dense homogeneous (CDH). We prove that a Borel CDH space is completely metrizable and give a complete list of zero-dimensional Borel CDH spaces. We also show that for a…

A $P$-space is a topological space whose every $G_{\delta}$-set is open. In this article, basic properties of $P$-spaces are investigated in the absence of the Axiom of Choice. New weaker forms of the Axiom of Choice, all relevant to…

We prove that, under CH, any space with a regular $G_\delta$-diagonal and caliber $\omega_1$ is separable; a corollary of this result answers, under CH, a question of Buzyakova. For any Urysohn space $X$, we establish the inequality $|X|\le…

The KC property, a separation axiom between weakly Hausdorff and Hausdorff, requires compact subsets to be closed. Various assumptions involving local conditions, dimension, connectivity, and homotopy show certain KC-spaces are in fact…

A topological space $G$ is said to be a {\it rectifiable space} provided that there are a surjective homeomorphism $\varphi :G\times G\rightarrow G\times G$ and an element $e\in G$ such that $\pi_{1}\circ \varphi =\pi_{1}$ and for every…

A set of sequences is said to converge simultaneously if there exists an infinite subset $H$ of the index set $\omega$ such that all sequences converge when restricted to $H$. We discuss simultaneous convergence of sequences in the same or…

In this paper we study the properties of P-generated spaces (by analogy with compactly generated). We prove that a regular Lindel\"of generated space with uncountable dispersion character is resolvable. It is proved that Hausdorff…

We study the infimal value of the Hausdorff dimension of spaces that are H\"older equivalent to a given metric space; we call this bi-H\"older-invariant "H\"older dimension". This definition and some of our methods are analogous to those…

We prove that the free locally convex space $L(X)$ over a metrizable space $X$ has countable tightness if and only if $X$ is separable.
