Let us call a function $f$ from a space $X$ into a space $Y$ preserving if the image of every compact subspace of $X$ is compact in $Y$ and the image of every connected subspace of $X$ is connected in $Y$. By elementary theorems a…

We investigate the existence of well-ordered sequences of Baire 1 functions on separable metric spaces.

Finite topological spaces became much more essential in topology, with the development of computer science. The task of this paper is to study and investigate some properties of such spaces with the existence of an ordered relation between…

This paper is concerned with conditions under which a metric continuum (a compact connected metric space) contains a non-degenerate chainable continuum.

In 1975, M. M. Choban introduced a new topology on the set of all closed subsets of a topological space, similar to the Tychonoff topology but weaker than it. In 1998, G. Dimov and D. Vakarelov used a generalized version of this new…

We comment van Douwen's problems on the Bohr topology of the abelian groups raised in his paper (The maximal totally bounded group topology on G and the biggest minimal G-space for Abelian groups G) as well as the steps in the solution of…

An action on a G-space induces uniformities on the phase space. It is shown when the maximal G-compactification of a G-space can be obtained as a completion of the phase space with respect to one of these uniformities. Structure of G-spaces…

We find some statements in the language of asymmetric topology and continuous partial orders which are equivalent to the statements $\kappa < \mathfrak m$ or $\kappa < \mathfrak p$.

We characterize the existence of a nonnegative, sublinear and continuous order-preserving function for a not necessarily complete preorder on a real convex cone in an arbitrary topological real vector space. As a corollary of the main…

Continuous mappings between compact Hausdorff spaces can be studied using homomorphisms between algebraic structures (lattices, Boolean algebras) associated with the spaces. This gives us more tools with which to tackle problems about these…

We prove that for every abelian group G and every compactum X with $\dim_G X \leq n \geq 2$ there is a G-acyclic resolution $r: Z \lo X$ from a compactum Z with $\dim_G Z \leq n$ and $\dim Z \leq n+1$ onto X.

Let $f\colon X\to Y$ be a perfect $n$-dimensional surjection of paracompact spaces with $Y$ being a $C$-space. We prove that, for any $m\geq n+1$, almost all (in the sense of Baire category) maps $g$ from $X$ into the $m$-dimensional cube…

Let $X,Y$ be topological vector spaces or metric spaces, and let {$f:X\times Y \to \Re $} be a real function lower semicontinuous in the first variable and upper semicontinuous in the second one. It is proved that $f$ is globally…

Let B^3 be the closed unit ball in R^3 and S^2 its boundary. We define a family of pseudo metrics on B^3. As an application, We prove that for any countable-to-one function f:S^2\to [0,a], the set NM^n_f={x\in S^2 | there exists y\in S^2…

A Hausdorff topological space X is van der Waerden if for every sequence (x_n)_n in X there is a converging subsequence (x_n)_{n in A} where subset A of omega contains arithmetic progressions of all finite lengths. A Hausdorff topological…

A characterization of $n$-dimensional spaces via continuous selections avoiding $Z_n$-sets is given, and a selection theorem for strongly countable-dimensional spaces is established. We apply these results to prove a generalized Ostrand's…

Some results of B. Pasynkov and H. Torunczyk on finite-dimensional maps are improved. A generalization of a Dranishnikov-Uspenskij theorem about extensional dimension is also obtained.

It is proved that there is no structure of left (right) cancelative semigroup on $[L]$-dimensional universal space for the class of separable compact spaces of extensional dimension $\le [L]$. Besides, we note that the homeomorphism group…

We investigate some properties of topological groups related to disconnectedness or Archimedeanness. We prove or disprove the preservation of those under operations as subgroups, quotients, products, etc. Characterizations of…

We address two properties for Abelian topological groups: ``every closed subgroup is dually closed'' and ``every closed subgroup is dually embedded.'' We exhibit a pair of topological groups such that each has both of the properties and the…
