We give a characterization of Maximum Entropy/Minimum Relative Entropy inference by providing two `strong entropy concentration' theorems. These theorems unify and generalize Jaynes' `concentration phenomenon' and Van Campenhout and Cover's…

Game comonads offer a categorical view of a number of model-comparison games central to model theory, such as pebble and Ehrenfeucht-Fra\"iss\'e games. Remarkably, the categories of coalgebras for these comonads capture preservation of…

This paper addresses the Asplund property for the space of continuous functions $C_k(X)$ equipped with the compact-open topology, when $X$ is an arbitrary Tychonoff space. Motivated by inconsistent definitions in prior literature extending…

This article introduces and studies the tight approximation property, a property of algebraic varieties defined over the function field of a complex or real curve that refines the weak approximation property (and the known cohomological…

The Small-Set Expansion Hypothesis (Raghavendra, Steurer, STOC 2010) is a natural hardness assumption concerning the problem of approximating the edge expansion of small sets in graphs. This hardness assumption is closely connected to the…

In this paper the weak topology on a normed space is studied from the viewpoint of infinite-dimensional topology. Besides the weak topology on a normed space $X$ (coinciding with the topology of uniform convergence on finite subsets of the…

We present a selection principle $S_1(\mathcal{O},\mathcal{H})$ that characterizes the $G_{\delta}$-diagonal property. We also present a topological game induced by this selection principle and we study the relations between this game and…

We show that if X is a tight subspace of C(K) then X has the Pelczynski property and X^* is weakly sequentially complete. We apply this result to the space U of uniformly convergent Taylor series on the unit circle and using a minimal…

Often, a given selection game studied in the literature has a known dual game. In dual games, a winning strategy for a player in either game may be used to create a winning strategy for the opponent in the dual. For example, the Rothberger…

In this paper we show that forcings which are strongly proper for stationarily many countable elementary submodels preserve each of the following properties of topological spaces: countably tight; Lindel\"of; Rothberger; Menger; and a…

Tightness is a generalisation of the notion of convexity: a space is tight if and only if it is "as convex as possible", given its topological constraints. For a simplicial complex, deciding tightness has a straightforward exponential time…

For two-person dynamic zero-sum games (both discrete and continuous settings), we investigate the limit of value functions of finite horizon games with long run average cost as the time horizon tends to infinity and the limit of value…

A version of the classical Klee-And\^o Theorem states the following: For every Banach space $X$, ordered by a closed generating cone $C\subseteq X$, there exists some $\alpha>0$ so that, for every $x\in X$, there exist $x^{\pm}\in C$ so…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra and $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space. Given homomorphisms $ \sigma \in Hom(A)$ and $\tau \in Hom(C(X, A))$, we introduce induced homomorphisms $\tilde{\sigma}\in Hom(C(X, A)) $ and $\tilde{\tau}\in Hom(A)$,…

In this paper we study connections between topological games such as Rothberger, Menger and compact-open, and relate these games to properties involving covers by G_{\delta} subsets. The results include: (1) If Two has a winning strategy in…

This work presents the selection principle $S_1^*(\tau_x,CD)$ that characterizes $q$-points. We also discuss the induced topological game $G_1^*(\tau_x,CD)$ and its relations with $W$-points and $\widetilde{W}$-points, as well as with the…

Schmidt's game is a powerful tool for studying properties of certain sets which arise in Diophantine approximation theory, number theory, and dynamics. Recently, many new results have been proven using this game. In this paper we address…

An $n$-player game $X$ in normal form can be modeled via undirected discrete graphical models where the discrete random variables represent the players and their state spaces are the set of pure strategies. There exists an edge between the…

We apply the theory of infinite two-person games to two well-known problems in topology: Suslin's Problem and Arhangel'skii's problem on $G_\delta$ covers of compact spaces. More specifically, we prove results of which the following two are…

Inspired by work of Scheepers and Tall, we use properties defined by topological games to provide bounds for the cardinality of topological spaces. We obtain a partial answer to an old question of Bell, Ginsburg and Woods regarding the…
