Suppose G is a topological group containing a (closed) topological copy of the Frechet-Urysohn fan. If G is a perfectly normal sequential space (a normal k-space) then every closed metrizable subset in $G$ is locally compact. Applying this…
Let $Y$ be a metrizable space containing at least two points, and let $X$ be a $Y_{\mathcal{I}}$-Tychonoff space for some ideal $\mathcal{I}$ of compact sets of $X$. Denote by $C_{\mathcal{I}}(X,Y)$ the space of continuous functions from…
Let $\FP(X)$ be the free paratopological group on a topological space $X$. For $n\in \N$, denote by $\FP_n(X)$ the subset of $\FP(X)$ consisting of all words of reduced length at most $n$, and by $i_n$ the natural mapping from $(X\oplus…
Given a Tychonoff space $X$, let $A(X)$ be the free Abelian topological group over $X$ in the sense of Markov. For every $n\in\mathbb{N}$, let $A_n(X)$ denote the subspace of $A(X)$ that consists of words of reduced length at most $n$ with…
We characterize $\kappa$-Fr\'{e}chet--Urysohn topological groups. Using this characterization we show that: (1) a hemicompact topological group is $\kappa$-Fr\'{e}chet--Urysohn iff it is locally compact, and (2) if $F$ is a closed…
We call a nonempty subset $A$ of a topological space $X$ finitely non-Urysohn if for every nonempty finite subset $F$ of $A$ and every family $\{U_x:x\in F\}$ of open neighborhoods $U_x$ of $x\in F$, $\cap\{\mathrm{cl}(U_x):x\in…
Let $\mathfrak{M}$ be a class of metric spaces. A metric space $Y$ is minimal $\mathfrak{M}$-universal if every $X\in\mathfrak{M}$ can be isometrically embedded in $Y$ but there are no proper subsets of $Y$ satisfying this property. We find…
A metric space $\mathrm{M}=(M,\de)$ is {\em indivisible} if for every colouring $\chi: M\to 2$ there exists $i\in 2$ and a copy $\mathrm{N}=(N, \de)$ of $\mathrm{M}$ in $\mathrm{M}$ so that $\chi(x)=i$ for all $x\in N$. The metric space…
The result often known as Joiner's lemma is fundamental in understanding the topology of the free topological group $F(X)$ on a Tychonoff space$X$. In this paper, an analogue of Joiner's lemma for the free paratopological group $\FP(X)$ on…
In the absence of the Axiom of Choice, necessary and sufficient conditions for a locally compact Hausdorff space to have all non-empty second-countable compact Hausdorff spaces as remainders are given in $\mathbf{ZF}$. Among other…
We show that $C(X)$ admits an equivalent pointwise lower semicontinuous locally uniformly rotund norm provided $X$ is Fedorchuk compact of spectral height 3. In other words $X$ admits a fully closed map $f$ onto a metric compact $Y$ such…
Assuming the absence of Q-points (which is consistent with ZFC) we prove that the free topological group $F(X)$ over a Tychonov space $X$ is $o$-bounded if and only if every continuous metrizable image $T$ of $X$ satisfies the selection…
In this paper we further study links between concentration of measure in topological transformation groups, existence of fixed points, and Ramsey-type theorems for metric spaces. We prove that whenever the group $\Iso(\U)$ of isometries of…
Let $T$ be a topological space admitting a compatible proper metric, that is, a locally compact, separable and metrisable space. Let $\mathcal{M}^T$ be the non-empty set of all proper metrics $d$ on $T$ compatible with its topology, and…
A topological space $X$ is defined to have a neighborhood $P$-base at any $x\in X$ from some poset $P$ if there exists a neighborhood base $(U_p[x])_{p\in P}$ at $x$ such that $U_p[x]\subseteq U_{p'}[x]$ for all $p\geq p'$ in $P$. We prove…
We show in ZF that: (i) Every subcompact metrizable space is completely metrizable, and every completely metrizable space is countably subcompact. (ii) A metrizable space X=(X,T) is countably compact iff it is countably subcompact relative…
A topological space is iso-dense if it has a dense set of isolated points. A topological space is scattered if each of its non-empty subspaces has an isolated point. In $\mathbf{ZF}$, in the absence of the axiom of choice, basic properties…
When a topological group $G$ acts on a compact space $X$, its enveloping semigroup $E(X)$ is the closure of the set of $g$-translations, $g\in G$, in the compact space $X^X$. Assume that $X$ is metrizable. It has recently been shown by the…
A space X is finite dimensional, locally compact and separable metrizable if and only if X has a finite basic family: continuous functions Phi_1,...,Phi_n of X to the reals, R, such that for all continuous f from X to R there are g_1,...,…
A topological space $X$ is cometrizable if it admits a weaker metrizable topology such that each point $x\in X$ has a (not necessarily open) neighborhood base consisting of metrically closed sets. We study the relation of cometrizable…
