Arhangel'skiĭ sheaf amalgamations in topological groups

Boaz Tsaban, Lyubomyr Zdomskyy (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider amalgamation properties of convergent sequences in topological groups and topological vector spaces. The main result of this paper is that, for arbitrary topological groups, Nyikos’s property α 1 . 5 is equivalent to Arhangel’skiĭ’s formally stronger property α₁. This result solves a problem of Shakhmatov (2002), and its proof uses a new perturbation argument. We also prove that there is a topological space X such that the space C p ( X ) of continuous real-valued functions on X with the...

On topological groups with a small base and metrizability

Saak Gabriyelyan, Jerzy Kąkol, Arkady Leiderman (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

A (Hausdorff) topological group is said to have a -base if it admits a base of neighbourhoods of the unit, U α : α , such that U α U β whenever β ≤ α for all α , β . The class of all metrizable topological groups is a proper subclass of the class T G of all topological groups having a -base. We prove that a topological group is metrizable iff it is Fréchet-Urysohn and has a -base. We also show that any precompact set in a topological group G T G is metrizable, and hence G is strictly angelic. We deduce from...

Ordinals in topological groups

Raushan Z. Buzyakova (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that if an uncountable regular cardinal τ and τ + 1 embed in a topological group G as closed subspaces then G is not normal. We also prove that an uncountable regular cardinal cannot be embedded in a torsion free Abelian group that is hereditarily normal. These results are corollaries to our main results about ordinals in topological groups. To state the main results, let τ be an uncountable regular cardinal and G a T₁ topological group. We prove, among others, the following...

Nonnormality of remainders of some topological groups

Aleksander V. Arhangel'skii, J. van Mill (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

It is known that every remainder of a topological group is Lindelöf or pseudocompact. Motivated by this result, we study in this paper when a topological group G has a normal remainder. In a previous paper we showed that under mild conditions on G , the Continuum Hypothesis implies that if the Čech-Stone remainder G * of G is normal, then it is Lindelöf. Here we continue this line of investigation, mainly for the case of precompact groups. We show that no pseudocompact group, whose weight...

Remainders of metrizable spaces and a generalization of Lindelöf Σ-spaces

A. V. Arhangel'skii (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We establish some new properties of remainders of metrizable spaces. In particular, we show that if the weight of a metrizable space X does not exceed 2 ω , then any remainder of X in a Hausdorff compactification is a Lindelöf Σ-space. An example of a metrizable space whose remainder in some compactification is not a Lindelöf Σ-space is given. A new class of topological spaces naturally extending the class of Lindelöf Σ-spaces is introduced and studied. This leads to the following theorem:...

A solution to Comfort's question on the countable compactness of powers of a topological group

Artur Hideyuki Tomita (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In 1990, Comfort asked Question 477 in the survey book “Open Problems in Topology”: Is there, for every (not necessarily infinite) cardinal number α 2 , a topological group G such that G γ is countably compact for all cardinals γ < α, but G α is not countably compact? Hart and van Mill showed in 1991 that α = 2 answers this question affirmatively under M A c o u n t a b l e . Recently, Tomita showed that every finite cardinal answers Comfort’s question in the affirmative, also from M A c o u n t a b l e . However, the question has...

Extremal phenomena in certain classes of totally bounded groups

W. W. Comfort, Lewis C. Robertson

Similarity:

For various pairs of topological properties such that P ⇒ Q, we consider two questions: (A) Does every topological group topology with P extend properly to a topological group topology with Q, and (B) must a topological group with P have a proper dense subgroup with Q? We obtain negative results and positive results. Principal among the latter is the statement that any pseudocompact group G of uncountable weight which satisfies any of the following three conditions has both a strictly...

Applications of some results of infinite-dimensional topology to the topological classification of operator images

Taras Banakh, Tadeusz Dobrowolski, Anatoliĭ Plichko

This volume consists of three relatively independent articles devoted to the topological study of the so-called operator images and weak unit balls of Banach spaces. These articles are: “The topological classification of weak unit balls of Banach spaces” by T. Banakh, “The topological and Borel classification of operator images” by T. Banakh, T. Dobrowolski and A. Plichko, and “Operator images homeomorphic to Σ ω ” by T. Banakh. The articles summarize investigations that has been done by...

Tomasz Szarek, Maciej Ślęczka (2006)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

It is shown that every Polish space X with d i m T X d admits a compact subspace Y such that d i m H Y d where d i m T and d i m H denote the topological and Hausdorff dimensions, respectively.

Subgroups of -factorizable groups

Constancio Hernández, Mihail G. Tkachenko (1998)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

The properties of -factorizable groups and their subgroups are studied. We show that a locally compact group G is -factorizable if and only if G is σ -compact. It is proved that a subgroup H of an -factorizable group G is -factorizable if and only if H is z -embedded in G . Therefore, a subgroup of an -factorizable group need not be -factorizable, and we present a method for constructing non- -factorizable dense subgroups of a special class of -factorizable groups. Finally, we construct...

Čech-Stone-like compactifications for general topological spaces

Miroslav Hušek (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

The problem whether every topological space X has a compactification Y such that every continuous mapping f from X into a compact space Z has a continuous extension from Y into Z is answered in the negative. For some spaces X such compactifications exist.
