On quasi-continuous bijections.
The notion of quasi-p-boundedness for p ∈ is introduced and investigated. We characterize quasi-p-pseudocompact subsets of β(ω) containing ω, and we show that the concepts of RK-compatible ultrafilter and P-point in can be defined in terms of quasi-p-pseudocompactness. For p ∈ , we prove that a subset B of a space X is quasi-p-bounded in X if and only if B × is bounded in X × , if and only if , where is the set of Rudin-Keisler predecessors of p.
F. van Gool [Comment. Math. Univ. Carolin. 33 (1992), 505–523] has introduced the concept of lower semicontinuity for functions with values in a quasi-uniform space . This note provides a purely topological view at the basic ideas of van Gool. The lower semicontinuity of van Gool appears to be just the continuity with respect to the topology generated by the quasi-uniformity , so that many of his preparatory results become consequences of standard topological facts. In particular, when the order...
For a topological space , let denote the set of all closed subsets in , and let denote the set of all continuous maps . A family is called reflexive if there exists such that for every . Every reflexive family of closed sets in space forms a sub complete lattice of the lattice of all closed sets in . In this paper, we continue to study the reflexive families of closed sets in various types of topological spaces. More necessary and sufficient conditions for certain families of closed...
We find regular Stein neighborhoods of a union of totally real planes M = (A+iI)ℝ² and N = ℝ² in ℂ², provided that the entries of a real 2 × 2 matrix A are sufficiently small. A key step in our proof is a local construction of a suitable function ρ near the origin. The sublevel sets of ρ are strongly Levi pseudoconvex and admit strong deformation retraction to M ∪ N.
