On the multiple Birkhoff recurrence theorem in dynamics
We study the relation between a space satisfying certain generalized metric properties and its -fold symmetric product satisfying the same properties. We prove that has a --property -network if and only if so does . Moreover, if is regular then has a --property -network if and only if so does . By these results, we obtain that is strict -space (strict -space) if and only if so is .
We present J. Jezierski's approach to the Nielsen fixed point theory for a broad class of multivalued mappings [Je1]. We also describe some generalizations and different techniques existing in the literature.
The Noetherian type of topological spaces is introduced. Connections between the Noetherian type and other cardinal functions of topological spaces are obtained.
Minimal Hausdorff (Baire) group topologies of certain groups of transformations naturally occurring in analysis are studied. The results obtained are subsequently applied to show that, e.g., the homeomorphism groups of the rational and of the irrational numbers carry no Polish group topology. In answer to a question of A. S. Kechris it is shown that the group of Borel automorphisms of ℝ cannot be a Polish group either.
An estimate for the Novak number of a hyperspace with the Vietoris topology is given. As a consequence it is shown that this cardinal function can decrease passing from a space to its hyperspace.
We modify a game due to Berner and Juhász to get what we call “the open-open game (of length ω)”: a round consists of player I choosing a nonempty open subset of a space X and II choosing a nonempty open subset of I’s choice; I wins if the union of II’s open sets is dense in X, otherwise II wins. This game is of interest for ccc spaces. It can be translated into a game on partial orders (trees and Boolean algebras, for example). We present basic results and various conditions under which I or II...
Through the study of frame congruences, new characterizations of the paracompactness of frames are obtained.
We extend a theorem of S. Claytor in order to characterize the Peano generalized continua which are embeddable into the 2-sphere. We also give a characterization of the Peano generalized continua which admit closed embeddings in the Euclidean plane.
The characterization of the pointwise limits of the sequences of Świątkowski functions is given. Modifications of Świątkowski property with respect to different topologies finer than the Euclidean topology are discussed.
