Browder-Fan fixed point theorem and related results
Necessary conditions are found for a Cantor subset of the circle to be minimal for some -diffeomorphism. These conditions are not satisfied by the usual ternary Cantor set.
If a separable dense in itself metric space is not a union of countably many nowhere dense subsets, then its -space is not subsequential.
In a Tychonoff space , the point is called a -point if every real-valued continuous function on can be extended continuously to . Every point in an extremally disconnected space is a -point. A classic example is the space consisting of the countable ordinals together with . The point is known to be a -point as well as a -point. We supply a characterization of -points in totally ordered spaces. The remainder of our time is aimed at studying when a point in a product space is a -point....
As usual will denote the ring of real-valued continuous functions on a Tychonoff space . It is well-known that if and are realcompact spaces such that and are isomorphic, then and are homeomorphic; that is determines. The restriction to realcompact spaces stems from the fact that and are isomorphic, where is the (Hewitt) realcompactification of . In this note, a class of locally compact spaces that includes properly the class of locally compact realcompact spaces is exhibited...
