For the functor of upper semicontinuous capacities in the category of compact Hausdorff spaces and two of its subfunctors, we prove open mapping theorems. These are counterparts of the open mapping theorem for the probability measure functor proved by Ditor and Eifler.
We investigate the triples in the category of compacta whose functorial parts are normal functors in the sense of E.V. Shchepin (normal triples). The problem of lifting of functors to the categories of algebras of the normal triples is considered. The distributive law for normal triples is completely described.
We consider the question of simultaneous extension of partial ultrametrics, i.e. continuous ultrametrics defined on nonempty closed subsets of a compact zero-dimensional metrizable space. The main result states that there exists a continuous extension operator that preserves the maximum operation. This extension can also be chosen so that it preserves the Assouad dimension.
An embedding X ⊂ G of a topological space X into a topological group G is called functorial if every homeomorphism of X extends to a continuous group homomorphism of G. It is shown that the interval [0, 1] admits no functorial embedding into a finite-dimensional or metrizable topological group.
