  • HISTORICAL NOTES Chapter 1:. the Idea of Topologizing the Set of Continuous Functions from One Topological Space Into Another To
    HISTORICAL NOTES Chapter 1:. The idea of topologizing the set of continuous functions from one topological space into another topological space arose from the notions of pointwise and uniform convergence of sequences of functions. Apparently the work of Ascoli [1883], [1889] and Hadamard [1898] marked the beginning of function space theory. The topology of pointwise convergence and the topology of uniform convergence are among the first function space topologies considered in the early years of general topology. The I supremum metric topology was studied in Frechet [19061. The paper of Tychonoff [1935] showed that the (Tychonoff) product on the set RX is nothing but the topology of pointwise convergence. In 1945, Fox [19451 defined the compact-open topology. Shortly thereafter, Arens [1946] studied this topology, which he called k-topology. Among other things which Arens proved was the compact-open topology version of Theorem 1.2.3. Set-open topologies in a more general setting were studied by Arens and Dugundji [1951] in connection with the concepts of admissible and proper topologies. Theorem 1.2.5 is due to Jackson [1952], and Example 1.2.7 can be found in Dugundji [1968]. Chapter 1:. Admissible [i.e., conjoining) topologies were introduced by Arens [1946] and splitting (i.e., proper) topologies were studied by Arens and Dugundji [1951], where they proved Theorem 2.5.3. Proofs of Theorem 2.5.2 and Corollary 2.5.4.a can be found in Fox [1945]. Corollary 2.5.7 is apparently due to Jackson [1952]; and Morita [1956] proved Corollary 2.5.8.

  • On a Special Metric
    Houston Journal of Mathematics c 2000 University of Houston ­ Volume 26, No. 4, 2000 ON A SPECIAL METRIC YUN ZIQIU AND HEIKKI J.K. JUNNILA Communicated by Jun-iti Nagata Abstract. In this note, we prove that whenever d is a compatible metric for a hedgehog space J having more than 2c spines, there exists ¯ > 0 and x J such that the family B (y; ¯): y B (x; ¯) contains more than 2 f d 2 d g c distinct sets. This result provides a negative answer to a question raised by Nagata in [6]. We also give positive answers to the same question under some extra conditions. 1. Introduction J. Nagata proved in [5] that each metrizable space X has a compatible metric d such that for every ¯ > 0, the family B (x; ¯): x X of all ¯-balls of (X; d) f d 2 g is closure-preserving, and in [6] he raised the following question: Does there exist, on each metrizable space X, a compatible metric d such that for every ¯ > 0, the family B (x; ¯): x X of all ¯-balls of (X; d) is hereditarily f d 2 g closure-preserving (as an unindexed family)? In this note, we answer the above question negatively by proving that there exists no compatible metric d on the hedgehog space H = J((2c)+) such that for every ¯ > 0, the family B (x; ¯): x H of all ¯-balls is point ¬nite or even f d 2 g point countable (as an unindexed family). We also show that the answer to the above question is positive under some added restrictions.

    Proceedings of the Ninth Prague Topological Symposium Contributed papers from the symposium held in Prague, Czech Republic, August 19–25, 2001 SPECIAL METRICS YASUNAO HATTORI Abstract. This is a survey on special metrics. We shall present some results and open questions on special metrics mainly appeared in the last 10 years. 1. Introduction This is a survey on special metrics. We shall present some results and open questions on special metrics mainly appeared in the last 10 years. We shall consider metrizable spaces and all metrics induce the original topology of a given metrizable space. For a metrizable space X, there are many metrics which induce the original topology of X. Some of them may determine topological properties of X. For example, it is well known that a metrizable space X is separable if and only if X admits a totally bounded metric, and X is compact if and only if X admits a complete totally bounded metric. 2. Properties related to midsets Let (X, ρ) be a metric space and y 6= z be distinct points of X. A set of the form M(y, z)= {x ∈ X : ρ(x,y)= ρ(x, z)} is called a midset or a bisector. Midsets are a geometrically intuitive concept, and several topological properties can be approached through midsets. arXiv:math/0204130v1 [math.GN] 10 Apr 2002 For example, the covering dimension of a separable metrizable space X can be characterized by midsets: Theorem 1 (Janos-Martin [11]). A separable metrizable space X has dim X ≤ n if and only if X admits a totally bounded metric ρ such that dim M ≤ n−1 for every midset M in X.

  • Equivariant Completions
    Comment.Math.Univ.Carolin. 35,3 (1994)539–547 539 Equivariant completions Michael Megrelishvili (Levy)* Abstract. An important consequence of a result of Katˇetov and Morita states that every metrizable space is contained in a complete metrizable space of the same dimension. We give an equivariant version of this fact in the case of a locally compact σ-compact acting group. Keywords: equivariant completion, factorization, dimension Classification: 54H15, 22A05 Introduction Let α : G×X → X be a continuous action of a topological group G on a uniform space (X, µ). We give a sufficient condition for the existence of a continuous extensionα ˆ : Gˆ × Xˆ → Xˆ where Gˆ is the sup-completion (i.e. the completion with respect to its two-sided uniformity) and (X,ˆ µˆ) is the completion of (X, µ). Our sufficient condition is necessary in the following important situation: Gˆ is Baire, µ is metrizable and for every g ∈ Gˆ the g-transition Xˆ → Xˆ isµ ˆ-uniformly continuous. As an application of a general equivariant completion theorem we unify the verification of the sup-completeness property for some natural groups. An important consequence of a result of Katˇetov [10] and Morita [14] states that every metrizable space is contained in a complete metrizable space of the same dimension (see Engelking [6, 7.4.17]). Using the G-factorization theorem [13] we obtain an equivariant generalization of the last fact in the case of locally compact σ-compact acting group G. This generalization, at the same time, improves some “equivariant results” of de Groot [7] and de Vries [16].

  • The $ K $-Spaces Property of Free Abelian Topological Groups Over
    THE k-SPACES PROPERTY OF FREE ABELIAN TOPOLOGICAL GROUPS OVER NON-METRIZABLE LASNEVˇ SPACES FUCAI LIN AND CHUAN LIU Abstract. Given a Tychonoff space X, let A(X) be the free Abelian topological group over X in the sense of Markov. For every n ∈ N, let An(X) denote the subspace of A(X) that consists of words of reduced length at most n with respect to the free basis X. In this paper, we show that A4(X) isa k-space if and only if A(X) is a k-space for the non-metrizable Laˇsnev space X, which gives a complementary for one result of K. Yamada’s. In addition, we also show that, under the assumption of ♭ = ω1, the subspace A3(X) is a k-space if and only if A(X) is a k-space for the non-metrizable Laˇsnev space X. However, under the assumption of ♭>ω1, we provide a non-metrizable Laˇsnev space X such that A3(X) is a k-space but A(X) is not a k-space. 1. Introduction In 1941, Markov [11] introduced the concept of the free Abelian topological group A(X) over a Tychonoff space X. Since then, the free Abelian topological groups have been a source of various examples and also an interesting topic of study in the theory of topological groups, see [2]. For every n ∈ N, let An(X) denote the subspace of A(X) that consists of words of reduced length at most n with respect to the free basis X. Recently, K. Yamada has showed the following two theorems: Theorem 1.1.

In early 70es the famous charac- terization theorems for Hilbert space manifolds and Hilbert cube manifolds were proved by Henryk Toru´nczyk.His technique was essentially based on the completeness of the considered spaces. A program of proving noncomplete counterparts of the Toru´nczyktheo- rems was realized in the fundamental paper of M.Bestvina and J.Mogilski. Starting from Anderson's cap-sets, Bessaga-Pe lczy´nski'sskeletoids, and ab- sorbing sets of J.West they cristallized the notion of absorbing set in Hilbert space manifold. These absorbing sets form an important class of spaces for which charac- terization theorems can be proved. Besides, they possess many remarkable topological properties, in particular, their topological and homotopy classi- fications coincide. The book is devoted to the theory of absorbing sets and its applications. It is divided into five chapters. The first chapter provides an exposition of the basic theory of absorbing sets. Our approach differs from that of Bestvina and Mogilski and is based on the first author's characterization of spaces that can be homotopy densely embedded into Hilbert space mani- folds. This allows us to simplify substantially our exposition and, moreover, to show the equivalence of the relative (Bestvina, Mogilski) and absolute (Dobrowolski, Mogilski) notions of absorbing sets.

  • 1. Introduction Hedgehog Spaces Are an Interesting Source of Examples in Point-Set Topol- Ogy
    Pr´e-Publica¸c~oesdo Departamento de Matem´atica Universidade de Coimbra Preprint Number 21{26 FRAME PRESENTATIONS OF COMPACT HEDGEHOGS AND THEIR PROPERTIES IGOR ARRIETA, JAVIER GUTIERREZ´ GARC´IA AND JORGE PICADO Dedicated to Professor Bernhard Banaschewski on the occasion of his 95th birthday Abstract: This paper considers the compact hedgehog as a frame presented by generators and relations, based on the presentation of the frame of extended real numbers. The main focus will be on the point-free version of continuous and semi- continuous functions that arise from it, and their application in characterizations of variants of collectionwise normality. The variants to be considered are defined by selections of adequate families of sublocales and their characterizations depend on lattice-theoretic properties of the selected families. This way insertion and exten- sion results for semicontinuous and continuous functions with values in the compact hedgehog frame are generalized and unified. Keywords: Hedgehog space, compact hedgehog, frame, locale, zero sublocale, c z- and zκ-embedded sublocales, collectionwise normality, total collectionwise normality, compact hedgehog-valued frame homomorphism, insertion results, sublocale selection. 2020 Mathematics Subject Classification: 06D22, 18F70, 54D15. 1. Introduction Hedgehog spaces are an interesting source of examples in point-set topol- ogy. They constitute, in fact, three different classes of spaces [1]. Here we are interested in the so-called compact hedgehog spaces, from a point-free viewpoint. As the name suggests, the hedgehog can be described as a set of spines identified at a single point. Given a cardinal κ and a set I of cardinality S κ, the hedgehog with κ spines J(κ) is the disjoint union i2I R × fig of κ copies (the spines) of the extended real line identified at −∞: The compact hedgehog space ΛJ(κ) is the hedgehog endowed with the (com- pact) topology generated by the subbasis f (r; |)i j r 2 Q; i 2 I g [ f (|; r)i j r 2 Q; i 2 I g where (r; |)i := (r; +1] × fig and (|; r)i := J(κ) n ([r; +1] × fig).

  • Strongly Base-Paracompact Spaces
    Comment.Math.Univ.Carolin. 44,2 (2003)307–314 307 Strongly base-paracompact spaces John E. Porter Abstract. A space X is said to be strongly base-paracompact if there is a basis B for X with |B| = w(X) such that every open cover of X has a star-finite open refinement by members of B. Strongly paracompact spaces which are strongly base-paracompact are studied. Strongly base-paracompact spaces are shown have a family of functions F with cardinality equal to the weight such that every open cover has a locally finite partition of unity subordinated to it from F. Keywords: base-paracompact, strongly base-paracompact, partition of unity, Lindel¨of spaces Classification: 54D20 1. Introduction The weight, w(X), of a topological space X is the minimal cardinality of a basis for X. A space X is base-paracompact if there is a basis B for X with |B| = w(X) such that every open cover of X has a locally finite refinement by members of B. The author studied these spaces in [Po] as a weakening of totally paracompact spaces. Is strong paracompactness witnessed by a base in the same manner as base-paracompact spaces? A family A of subsets of a topological space X is said to be star-finite if for every A ∈ A the set {B ∈ A : B ∩ A 6= ∅} is finite. A topological space X is strongly paracompact if every open cover of X has a star-finite open refinement. A topological space X is strongly base-paracompact if there is a basis B for X with |B| = w(X) such that every open cover of X has a star-finite open refinement by members of B.
