Extension properties of Stone-Čech coronas and proper absolute extensors

A. Chigogidze (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We characterize, in terms of X, the extensional dimension of the Stone-Čech corona βX∖X of a locally compact and Lindelöf space X. The non-Lindelöf case is also settled in terms of extending proper maps with values in $I^{τ} ∖ L$ , where L is a finite complex. Further, for a finite complex L, an uncountable cardinal τ and a $Z_{τ}$ -set X in the Tikhonov cube $I^{τ}$ we find a necessary and sufficient condition, in terms of $I^{τ} ∖ X$ , for X to be in the class AE([L]). We also introduce a concept of a proper absolute...

Absolute continuity with respect to a subset of an interval

Lucie Loukotová (2017)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to introduce a generalization of the classical absolute continuity to a relative case, with respect to a subset $M$ of an interval $I$ . This generalization is based on adding more requirements to disjoint systems ${(a_{k}, b_{k})}_{K}$ from the classical definition of absolute continuity – these systems should be not too far from $M$ and should be small relative to some covers of $M$ . We discuss basic properties of relative absolutely continuous functions and compare this class with other...

Free locally convex spaces and $L$ -retracts

Rodrigo Hidalgo Linares, Oleg Okunev (2023)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We study the relation of $L$ -equivalence defined between Tychonoff spaces, that is, we study the topological isomorphisms of their respective free locally convex spaces. We introduce the concept of an $L$ -retract in a Tychonoff space in terms of the existence of a special kind of simultaneous extensions of continuous functions, explore the relation of this concept with the Dugundji extension theorem, and find some conditions that allow us to identify $L$ -retracts in various classes of topological...

Retracts that are kernels of locally nilpotent derivations

Dayan Liu, Xiaosong Sun (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero and $B$ a $k$ -domain. Let $R$ be a retract of $B$ being the kernel of a locally nilpotent derivation of $B$ . We show that if $B = R \oplus I$ for some principal ideal $I$ (in particular, if $B$ is a UFD), then $B = R^{[1]}$ , i.e., $B$ is a polynomial algebra over $R$ in one variable. It is natural to ask that, if a retract $R$ of a $k$ -UFD $B$ is the kernel of two commuting locally nilpotent derivations of $B$ , then does it follow that $B ≅ R^{[2]}$ ? We give a negative answer to this question. The interest in...

Hardness of embedding simplicial complexes in $ℝ^{d}$

Jiří Matoušek, Martin Tancer, Uli Wagner (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let ${𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}_{k \to d}$ be the following algorithmic problem: Given a ﬁnite simplicial complex $K$ of dimension at most $k$ , does there exist a (piecewise linear) embedding of $K$ into $ℝ^{d}$ ? Known results easily imply polynomiality of ${𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}_{k \to 2}$ ( $k = 1, 2$ ; the case $k = 1, d = 2$ is graph planarity) and of ${𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}_{k \to 2 k}$ for all $k \geq 3$ . We show that the celebrated result of Novikov on the algorithmic unsolvability of recognizing the 5-sphere implies that ${𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}_{d \to d}$ and ${𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}_{(d - 1) \to d}$ are undecidable for each $_{d} \geq 5$ . Our main result is NP-hardness of ${𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}_{2 \to 4}$ and, more generally, of ${𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}_{k \to d}$ for all...

An irrational problem

Franklin D. Tall (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given a topological space ⟨X,⟩ ∈ M, an elementary submodel of set theory, we define $X_{M}$ to be X ∩ M with topology generated by $U \cap M : U \in \cap M$ . Suppose $X_{M}$ is homeomorphic to the irrationals; must $X = X_{M}$ ? We have partial results. We also answer a question of Gruenhage by showing that if $X_{M}$ is homeomorphic to the “Long Cantor Set”, then $X = X_{M}$ .

Seeking a network characterization of Corson compacta

Ziqin Feng (2021)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We say that a collection $𝒜$ of subsets of $X$ has property $(C C)$ if there is a set $D$ and point-countable collections $𝒞$ of closed subsets of $X$ such that for any $A \in 𝒜$ there is a finite subcollection $ℱ$ of $𝒞$ such that $A = D ∖ ⋃ ℱ$ . Then we prove that any compact space is Corson if and only if it has a point- $σ$ - $(C C)$ base. A characterization of Corson compacta in terms of (strong) point network is also given. This provides an answer to an open question in “A Biased View of Topology as a Tool in Functional Analysis”...

On sharp characters of type ${- 1, 0, 2}$

Alireza Abdollahi, Javad Bagherian, Mahdi Ebrahimi, Maryam Khatami, Zahra Shahbazi, Reza Sobhani (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

For a complex character $χ$ of a finite group $G$ , it is known that the product $sh (χ) = \prod_{l \in L (χ)} (χ (1) - l)$ is a multiple of $| G |$ , where $L (χ)$ is the image of $χ$ on $G - {1}$ . The character $χ$ is said to be a sharp character of type $L$ if $L = L (χ)$ and $sh (χ) = | G |$ . If the principal character of $G$ is not an irreducible constituent of $χ$ , then the character $χ$ is called normalized. It is proposed as a problem by P. J. Cameron and M. Kiyota, to find finite groups $G$ with normalized sharp characters of type ${- 1, 0, 2}$ . Here we prove that such a group with nontrivial...

Continuous images of Lindelöf $p$ -groups, $σ$ -compact groups, and related results

Aleksander V. Arhangel'skii (2019)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

It is shown that there exists a $σ$ -compact topological group which cannot be represented as a continuous image of a Lindelöf $p$ -group, see Example 2.8. This result is based on an inequality for the cardinality of continuous images of Lindelöf $p$ -groups (Theorem 2.1). A closely related result is Corollary 4.4: if a space $Y$ is a continuous image of a Lindelöf $p$ -group, then there exists a covering $γ$ of $Y$ by dyadic compacta such that $| γ | \leq 2^{ω}$ . We also show that if a homogeneous compact space $Y$ is...

On non-normality points, Tychonoff products and Suslin number

Sergei Logunov (2022)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Let a space $X$ be Tychonoff product $\prod_{α < τ} X_{α}$ of $τ$ -many Tychonoff nonsingle point spaces $X_{α}$ . Let Suslin number of $X$ be strictly less than the cofinality of $τ$ . Then we show that every point of remainder is a non-normality point of its Čech–Stone compactification $β X$ . In particular, this is true if $X$ is either $R^{τ}$ or $ω^{τ}$ and a cardinal $τ$ is infinite and not countably cofinal.

Failure of the Factor Theorem for Borel pre-Hilbert spaces

Tadeusz Dobrowolski, Witold Marciszewski (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In every infinite-dimensional Fréchet space X, we construct a linear subspace E such that E is an $F_{σ δ σ}$ -subset of X and contains a retract R so that $R \times E^{ω}$ is not homeomorphic to $E^{ω}$ . This shows that Toruńczyk’s Factor Theorem fails in the Borel case.

Finite-dimensional maps and dendrites with dense sets of end points

Hisao Kato, Eiichi Matsuhashi (2006)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

The first author has recently proved that if f: X → Y is a k-dimensional map between compacta and Y is p-dimensional (0 ≤ k, p < ∞), then for each 0 ≤ i ≤ p + k, the set of maps g in the space $C (X, I^{p + 2 k + 1 - i})$ such that the diagonal product $f \times g : X \to Y \times I^{p + 2 k + 1 - i}$ is an (i+1)-to-1 map is a dense $G_{δ}$ -subset of $C (X, I^{p + 2 k + 1 - i})$ . In this paper, we prove that if f: X → Y is as above and $D_{j}$ (j = 1,..., k) are superdendrites, then the set of maps h in $C (X, \prod_{j = 1}^{k} D_{j} \times I^{p + 1 - i})$ such that $f \times h : X \to Y \times (\prod_{j = 1}^{k} D_{j} \times I^{p + 1 - i})$ is (i+1)-to-1 is a dense $G_{δ}$ -subset of $C (X, \prod_{j = 1}^{k} D_{j} \times I^{p + 1 - i})$ for each 0 ≤ i ≤ p.

Complete pairs of coanalytic sets

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let X be a Polish space, and let C₀ and C₁ be disjoint coanalytic subsets of X. The pair (C₀,C₁) is said to be complete if for every pair (D₀,D₁) of disjoint coanalytic subsets of $ω^{ω}$ there exists a continuous function $f : ω^{ω} \to X$ such that $f^{- 1} (C ₀) = D ₀$ and $f^{- 1} (C ₁) = D ₁$ . We give several explicit examples of complete pairs of coanalytic sets.
