Cartesian closed hull for (quasi-)metric spaces (revisited)

Mark Nauwelaerts (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

An existing description of the cartesian closed topological hull of p MET , the category of extended pseudo-metric spaces and nonexpansive maps, is simplified, and as a result, this hull is shown to be a special instance of a “family” of cartesian closed topological subconstructs of p q s MET , the category of extended pseudo-quasi-semi-metric spaces (also known as quasi-distance spaces) and nonexpansive maps. Furthermore, another special instance of this family yields the cartesian closed topological hull of...

Čech-Stone-like compactifications for general topological spaces

Miroslav Hušek (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The problem whether every topological space X has a compactification Y such that every continuous mapping f from X into a compact space Z has a continuous extension from Y into Z is answered in the negative. For some spaces X such compactifications exist.

Coarse dimensions and partitions of unity.

N. Brodskiy, J. Dydak (2008)

RACSAM

Gromov and Dranishnikov introduced asymptotic and coarse dimensions of proper metric spaces via quite different ways. We define coarse and asymptotic dimension of all metric spaces in a unified manner and we investigate relationships between them generalizing results of Dranishnikov and Dranishnikov-Keesling-Uspienskij.

Coarse structures and group actions

N. Brodskiy, J. Dydak, A. Mitra (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

The main results of the paper are: Proposition 0.1. A group G acting coarsely on a coarse space (X,𝓒) induces a coarse equivalence g ↦ g·x₀ from G to X for any x₀ ∈ X. Theorem 0.2. Two coarse structures 𝓒₁ and 𝓒₂ on the same set X are equivalent if the following conditions are satisfied: (1) Bounded sets in 𝓒₁ are identical with bounded sets in 𝓒₂. (2) There is a coarse action ϕ₁ of a group G₁ on (X,𝓒₁) and a coarse action ϕ₂ of a...

Completely regular spaces

H. L. Bentley, Eva Lowen-Colebunders (1991)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We conduct an investigation of the relationships which exist between various generalizations of complete regularity in the setting of merotopic spaces, with particular attention to filter spaces such as Cauchy spaces and convergence spaces. Our primary contribution consists in the presentation of several counterexamples establishing the divergence of various such generalizations of complete regularity. We give examples of: (1) a contigual zero space which is not weakly regular and is not a Cauchy...
