We prove extension-dimensional versions of finite dimensional selection and approximation theorems. As applications, we obtain several results on extension dimension.

The linear isometries between weighted Banach spaces of continuous functions are considered. Some of well known theorems on isometries between spaces of continuous functions are proved and stated, but all they are in an appropriate form. In…

We present some results related to theorems of Pasynkov and Torunczyk on the geometry of maps of finite dimensional compacta.

Let $L$ be a countable CW-complex and $F\colon X\to Y$ be upper semicontinuous $UV^{[L]}$-valued mapping of a paracompact space $X$ to a complete metric space $Y$. We prove that if $X$ is a C-space of extension dimension $\ed X \le [L]$,…

A duality of $\kappa$-normed topological vector spaces is defined and investigated. For such spaces the analog of the Mackey-Arens theorem is proved. There are investigated cases, when $\kappa$-normability of a topological vector space…

We introduce a general method of extending (pseudo-)metrics from X to FX, where F is a normal functor on the category of metrizable compacta. For many concrete instances of F, our method specializes to the known constructions.

It is shown that the existence of a biseparating map between a large class of spaces of vector-valued continuous functions A(X,E) and A(Y,F) implies that some compactifications of X and Y are homeomorphic. In some cases, conditions are…

We recall a characterization of hereditary indecomposability originally obtained by Krasinkiewicz and Minc, and show how it may be used to give unified constructions of various hereditarily indecomposable continua. In particular we answer a…

By proving that, if the quotient space S(X) of the connected components of the locally compact metric space (X,d) is compact, then the full group I(X,d) of isometries of X is closed in C(X,X) with respect to the pointwise topology, i.e.,…

This paper is concerned with some well-known Ljusternik-Schnirelmann categories. We desire to find some links and relations among them. This has been done by using the concepts of precategoty, T-collection and closure of a category.

We show that a Tychonoff discretely star-Lindelof space can have arbitrarily big extent and note that there are consistent examples of normal discretely star-Lindelof spaces with uncountable extent.

A space X is star-Lindelof provided for every open cover U there is a finite subset A of X such that St(A,U)=X. We show that a Tychonoff star-Lindelof space can have arbitraryly big extent while the extent of a normal star-Lindelof space…

We show that it is consistent that for some uncountable cardinal k, all compactifications of the countable discrete space with remainders homeomorphic to $D^k$ are homeomorphic to each other. On the other hand, there are $2^c$ pairwise…

We answer a question of Yasui. Morever, we show that if a Tychonoff space Y is countably 1-paracompact in every Tychonoff space X that contains Y as a closed subspace then Y is linearly Lindelof.

We show, following W. Holsztynski, that there exists a continuous metric d on the set of real numbers R such that any finite metric space is isometrically embeddable into (R,d).

We show that hereditarily indecomposable spaces can be characterized by a special instance of the Intermediate Value Theorem in their rings of continuous functions.

Earlier an arbitrary poset $P$ was proved to be isomorphic to the collection of subsets of a space $M$ with two closures which are closed in the first closure and open in the other. As a space $M$ for this representation an algebraic dual…

A duality between general partially ordered sets and certain topolgical spaces with two closures is established.

We investigate topological AE(0) -groups class of which contains the class of Polish groups as well as the class of all locally compact groups. We establish the existence of an universal AE(0) -group of a given weight as well as the…
