Compact topologically torsion elements of topological abelian groups
The definition of n-width of a bounded subset A in a normed linear space X is based on the existence of n-dimensional subspaces. Although the concept of an n-dimensional subspace is not available for metric trees, in this paper, using the properties of convex and compact subsets, we present a notion of n-widths for a metric tree, called Tn-widths. Later we discuss properties of Tn-widths, and show that the compact width is attained. A relationship between the compact widths and Tn-widths is also...
It is well-known that compacta (i.e. compact Hausdorff spaces) are maximally resolvable, that is every compactum contains many pairwise disjoint dense subsets, where denotes the minimum size of a non-empty open set in . The aim of this note is to prove the following analogous result: Every compactum contains many pairwise disjoint -dense subsets, where denotes the minimum size of a non-empty set in .
A bijective correspondence between strong inclusions and compactifications in the setting of -frames is presented. The category of uniform -frames is defined and a description of the Samuel compactification is given. It is shown that the Samuel compactification of a uniform frame is completely determined by the -frame consisting of its uniform cozero part, and consequently, any compactification of any frame is so determined.
