Examples of non-shy sets

Randall Dougherty (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Christensen has defined a generalization of the property of being of Haar measure zero to subsets of (abelian) Polish groups which need not be locally compact; a recent paper of Hunt, Sauer, and Yorke defines the same property for Borel subsets of linear spaces, and gives a number of examples and applications. The latter authors use the term “shyness” for this property, and “prevalence” for the complementary property. In the present paper, we construct a number of examples of non-shy...

Extending real-valued functions in βκ

Alan Dow (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

An Open Coloring Axiom type principle is formulated for uncountable cardinals and is shown to be a consequence of the Proper Forcing Axiom. Several applications are found. We also study dense C*-embedded subspaces of ω*, showing that there can be such sets of cardinality c and that it is consistent that ω*{pis C*-embedded for some but not all p ∈ ω*.

Loop spaces and homotopy operations

David Blanc (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We describe an obstruction theory for an H-space X to be a loop space, in terms of higher homotopy operations taking values in π * X . These depend on first algebraically “delooping” the Π-algebras π * X , using the H-space structure on X, and then trying to realize the delooped Π-algebra.

Measures on Corson compact spaces

Kenneth Kunen, Jan van Mill (1995)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that the statement: "there is a Corson compact space with a non-separable Radon measure" is equivalent to a number of natural statements in set theory.

Diagonal conditions in ordered spaces

Harold Bennett, David Lutzer (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a space X and a regular uncountable cardinal κ ≤ |X| we say that κ ∈ D(X) if for each T ⊂ X 2 - Δ ( X ) with |T| = κ, there is an open neighborhood W of Δ(X) such that |T - W| = κ. If ω 1 ∈ D ( X ) then we say that X has a small diagonal, and if every regular uncountable κ ≤ |X| belongs to D(X) then we say that X has an H-diagonal. In this paper we investigate the interplay between D(X) and topological properties of X in the category of generalized ordered spaces. We obtain cardinal invariant theorems and metrization...

Dense pairs of o-minimal structures

Lou van den Dries (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

The structure of definable sets and maps in dense elementary pairs of o-minimal expansions of ordered abelian groups is described. It turns out that a certain notion of "small definable set" plays a special role in this description.

Selections that characterize topological completeness

Jan van Mill, Jan Pelant, Roman Pol (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that the assertions of some fundamental selection theorems for lower-semicontinuous maps with completely metrizable range and metrizable domain actually characterize topological completeness of the target space. We also show that certain natural restrictions on the class of the domains change this situation. The results provide in particular answers to questions asked by Engelking, Heath and Michael [3] and Gutev, Nedev, Pelant and Valov [5].
