On decompositions of continua
We prove that it is independent of ZFC whether every Hausdorff countable space of weight less than has a dense regular subspace. Examples are given of countable Hausdorff spaces of weight which do not have dense Urysohn subspaces. We also construct an example of a countable Urysohn space, which has no dense completely Hausdorff subspace. On the other hand, we establish that every Hausdorff space of -weight less than has a dense completely Hausdorff (and hence Urysohn) subspace. We show that...
The well-known result of S. Mazurkiewicz that the simple closed curve is the only nondegenerate locally connected plane homogeneous continuum is extended to generalized homogeneity with respect to some other classes of mappings. Several open problems in the area are posed.
It is shown that the quotient maps of a monotopological construct A which are preserved by pullbacks along embeddings, projections, or arbitrary morphisms, can be characterized by being quotient maps in appropriate extensions of A.
