We prove that: 1. If a Hausdorff M-space is a continuous closed image of a submetrizable space, then it is metrizable. 2. A dense-in-itself open-closed image of a submetrizable space is submetrizable if and only if it is functionally…

We show a number of undecidable assertions concerning countably compact spaces hold under PFA(S)[S]. We also show the consistency without large cardinals of "every locally compact, perfectly normal space is paracompact".

All spaces are assumed to be Tychonoff. Given a realcompact space $X$, we denote by $\mathsf{Exp}(X)$ the smallest infinite cardinal $\kappa$ such that $X$ is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of $\mathbb{R}^\kappa$. Our main result shows…

We study the question of when an uncountable ccc topological space $X$ contains a ccc subspace of size $\aleph_1$. We show that it does if $X$ is compact Hausdorff and more generally if $X$ is Hausdorff with $\mathrm{pct}(X) \leq \aleph_1$.…

We prove that every Lindel\"of scattered subspace of a $\Sigma$-product of first-countable spaces is $\sigma$-compact. In particular, we obtain the result stated in the title. This answers some questions of Tkachuk from [Houston J. Math. 48…

The countable uniform power (or uniform box product) of a uniform space $X$ is a special topology on ${}^{\omega}X$ that lies between the Tychonoff topology and the box topology. We solve an open problem posed by P. Nyikos showing that if…

A space $Y$ is called an {\em extension} of a space $X$ if $Y$ contains $X$ as a dense subspace. Two extensions of $X$ are said to be {\em equivalent} if there is a homeomorphism between them which fixes $X$ point-wise. For two (equivalence…

In a countably normed space which is a linear space equipped with a countable number of pair-wise compatible norms, we prove the existence of a common nearest point (in all norms) from a point outside a nonempty subset if this subset is…

A regular separable first-countable countably compact space is called a Nyikos space. In this paper, we give a partial solution to an old problem of Nyikos by showing that each locally compact Nyikos inverse topological semigroup is…

If a Tychonoff space $X$ is dense in a Tychonoff space $Y$, then $Y$ is called a Tychonoff extension of $X$. Two Tychonoff extensions $Y_1$ and $Y_2$ of $X$ are said to be equivalent, if there exists a homeomorphism $f:Y_1\rightarrow Y_2$…

Generalizations of the theorems of Eberlein and Grothendieck on the precompactness of subsets of function spaces are considered: if $X$ is a countably compact space and $C_p(X)$ is a space of continuous functions in the pointwise topology…

A topological space $X$ is called almost discretely Lindel\"of if every discrete set $D \subset X$ is included in a Lindel\"of subspace of $X$. We say that the space $X$ is {\em $\mu$-sequential} if for every non-closed set $A \subset X$…

A space is called linearly H-closed iff any chain cover possesses a dense member. This property lies strictly between feeble compactness and H-closedness. While regular H-closed spaces are compact, there are linearly H-closed spaces which…

Generalizing de Vries Compactification Theorem and strengthening Leader Local Compactification Theorem, we describe the partially ordered set $(\LL(X),\le)$ of all (up to equivalence) locally compact Hausdorff extensions of a Tychonoff…

Answering a question posed by Vladimir Tkachuk, we prove that every $T_1$ connected first-countable space is a continuous open image of a connected metrizable space.

It is proved that if some boundary $B$ of a convex compact subset $X$ of a locally convex linear space has a countable network, then the convex compact space $X$ is metrizable. If the boundary $B$ is a Lindelof $\Sigma$-space, then the…

Countable tightness may be destroyed by countably closed forcing. We characterize the indestructibility of countable tightness under countably closed forcing by combinatorial statements similar to the ones Tall used to characterize…

We prove existence of extension dimension for paracompact spaces. Here is the main result of the paper: \proclaim{Theorem} Suppose X is a paracompact space. There is a CW complex K such that {a.} K is an absolute extensor of X up to…

We prove that each metrizable space (of cardinality less or equal to continuum) has a (first countable) uniform Eberlein compactification and each scattered metrizable space has a scattered hereditarily paracompact compactification. Each…

In 1971 I announced what I described as a nice proof of Tychonoff's Theorem, an immediate corollary of a result concerning closed projections combined with Mrowka's characterization of compactness: a space X is compact if and only if for…
