Strong remote points

Sergei Logunov (2002)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Remote points constructed so far are actually strong remote. But we construct remote points of another type.

Strong shape of the Stone-Čech compactification

Sibe Mardešić (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

J. Keesling has shown that for connected spaces X the natural inclusion e : X β X of X in its Stone-Čech compactification is a shape equivalence if and only if X is pseudocompact. This paper establishes the analogous result for strong shape. Moreover, pseudocompact spaces are characterized as spaces which admit compact resolutions, which improves a result of I. Lončar.

Sum theorems for Ohio completeness

D. Basile, J. van Mill, G. J. Ridderbos (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We present several sum theorems for Ohio completeness. We prove that Ohio completeness is preserved by taking σ-locally finite closed sums and also by taking point-finite open sums. We provide counterexamples to show that Ohio completeness is preserved neither by taking locally countable closed sums nor by taking countable open sums.

The Banach algebra of continuous bounded functions with separable support

M. R. Koushesh (2012)

Studia Mathematica

We prove a commutative Gelfand-Naimark type theorem, by showing that the set C s ( X ) of continuous bounded (real or complex valued) functions with separable support on a locally separable metrizable space X (provided with the supremum norm) is a Banach algebra, isometrically isomorphic to C₀(Y) for some unique (up to homeomorphism) locally compact Hausdorff space Y. The space Y, which we explicitly construct as a subspace of the Stone-Čech compactification of X, is countably compact, and if X is non-separable,...

The category of compactifications and its coreflections

Anthony W. Hager, Brian Wynne (2022)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We define “the category of compactifications”, which is denoted CM, and consider its family of coreflections, denoted corCM. We show that corCM is a complete lattice with bottom the identity and top an interpretation of the Čech–Stone β . A c corCM implies the assignment to each locally compact, noncompact Y a compactification minimum for membership in the “object-range” of c . We describe the minimum proper compactifications of locally compact, noncompact spaces, show that these generate the atoms...
