A countable connected Urysohn space with a dispersion point that is regular almost everywhere
We prove there is a countable dense homogeneous subspace of ℝ of size ℵ₁. The proof involves an absoluteness argument using an extension of the logic obtained by adding predicates for Borel sets.
We construct a space having the properties in the title, and with the same technique, a countably compact topological group which is not absolutely countably compact.
We exhibit a metric continuum X and a polyhedron P such that the Cartesian product X × P fails to be the product of X and P in the shape category of topological spaces.
We prove a decomposition theorem for a class of continua for which F. B.. Jones's set function 𝓣 is continuous. This gives a partial answer to a question of D. Bellamy.
We show that every compact connected group is the limit of a continuous inverse sequence, in the category of compact groups, where each successor bonding map is either an epimorphism with finite kernel or the projection from a product by a simple compact Lie group. As an application, we present a proof of an unpublished result of Charles Mills from 1978: every compact group is supercompact.
