A forcing construction of thin-tall Boolean algebras

Juan Martínez (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

It was proved by Juhász and Weiss that for every ordinal α with 0 < α < ω 2 there is a superatomic Boolean algebra of height α and width ω. We prove that if κ is an infinite cardinal such that κ < κ = κ and α is an ordinal such that 0 < α < κ + + , then there is a cardinal-preserving partial order that forces the existence of a superatomic Boolean algebra of height α and width κ. Furthermore, iterating this forcing through all α < κ + + , we obtain a notion of forcing that preserves cardinals and such that in the corresponding generic...

A formula for calculation of metric dimension of converging sequences

Ladislav, Jr. Mišík, Tibor Žáčik (1999)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Converging sequences in metric space have Hausdorff dimension zero, but their metric dimension (limit capacity, entropy dimension, box-counting dimension, Hausdorff dimension, Kolmogorov dimension, Minkowski dimension, Bouligand dimension, respectively) can be positive. Dimensions of such sequences are calculated using a different approach for each type. In this paper, a rather simple formula for (lower, upper) metric dimension of any sequence given by a differentiable convex function, is derived....

A function space Cp(X) not linearly homeomorphic to Cp(X) × ℝ

Witold Marciszewski (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We construct two examples of infinite spaces X such that there is no continuous linear surjection from the space of continuous functions c p ( X ) onto c p ( X ) × ℝ . I n p a r t i c u l a r , cp(X) i s n o t l i n e a r l y h o m e o m o r p h i c t o cp(X) × . One of these examples is compact. This answers some questions of Arkhangel’skiĭ.

A game and its relation to netweight and D-spaces

Gary Gruenhage, Paul Szeptycki (2011)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We introduce a two player topological game and study the relationship of the existence of winning strategies to base properties and covering properties of the underlying space. The existence of a winning strategy for one of the players is conjectured to be equivalent to the space have countable network weight. In addition, connections to the class of D-spaces and the class of hereditarily Lindelöf spaces are shown.
