On the Set-Theoretic Strength of Countable Compactness of the Tychonoff Product $2^{ℝ}$

Eleftherios Tachtsis (2010)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We work in ZF set theory (i.e., Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory minus the Axiom of Choice AC) and show the following: 1. The Axiom of Choice for well-ordered families of non-empty sets ( $A C^{W O}$ ) does not imply “the Tychonoff product $2^{ℝ}$ , where 2 is the discrete space 0,1, is countably compact” in ZF. This answers in the negative the following question from Keremedis, Felouzis, and Tachtsis [Bull. Polish Acad. Sci. Math. 55 (2007)]: Does the Countable Axiom of Choice for families of non-empty sets...

A new Lindelöf space with points $G_{δ}$

Alan S. Dow (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We prove that $♦^{*}$ implies there is a zero-dimensional Hausdorff Lindelöf space of cardinality $2^{ℵ_{1}}$ which has points $G_{δ}$ . In addition, this space has the property that it need not be Lindelöf after countably closed forcing.

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 $α \leq 2^{}$ , 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...

Coherent ultrafilters and nonhomogeneity

Jan Starý (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We introduce the notion of a coherent $P$ -ultrafilter on a complete ccc Boolean algebra, strengthening the notion of a $P$ -point on $ω$ , and show that these ultrafilters exist generically under $𝔠 = 𝔡$ . This improves the known existence result of Ketonen [On the existence of $P$ -points in the Stone-Čech compactification of integers, Fund. Math. 92 (1976), 91–94]. Similarly, the existence theorem of Canjar [On the generic existence of special ultrafilters, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 110 (1990), no. 1,...

On the solvability of systems of linear equations over the ring $ℤ$ of integers

Horst Herrlich, Eleftherios Tachtsis (2017)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We investigate the question whether a system ${(E_{i})}_{i \in I}$ of homogeneous linear equations over $ℤ$ is non-trivially solvable in $ℤ$ provided that each subsystem ${(E_{j})}_{j \in J}$ with $| J | \leq c$ is non-trivially solvable in $ℤ$ where $c$ is a fixed cardinal number such that $c < | I |$ . Among other results, we establish the following. (a) The answer is ‘No’ in the finite case (i.e., $I$ being finite). (b) The answer is ‘No’ in the denumerable case (i.e., $| I | = ℵ_{0}$ and $c$ a natural number). (c) The answer in case that $I$ is uncountable and $c \leq ℵ_{0}$ is ‘No...

Characterizations of $z$ -Lindelöf spaces

Ahmad Al-Omari, Takashi Noiri (2017)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

A topological space $(X, τ)$ is said to be $z$ -Lindelöf [1] if every cover of $X$ by cozero sets of $(X, τ)$ admits a countable subcover. In this paper, we obtain new characterizations and preservation theorems of $z$ -Lindelöf spaces.

More reflections on compactness

Lúcia R. Junqueira, Franklin D. Tall (2003)

Similarity:

We consider the question of when $X_{M} = X$ , where $X_{M}$ is the elementary submodel topology on X ∩ M, especially in the case when $X_{M}$ is compact.

On preimages of ultrafilters in ZF

Horst Herrlich, Paul Howard, Kyriakos Keremedis (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We show that given infinite sets $X, Y$ and a function $f : X \to Y$ which is onto and $n$ -to-one for some $n \in ℕ$ , the preimage of any ultrafilter $ℱ$ of $Y$ under $f$ extends to an ultrafilter. We prove that the latter result is, in some sense, the best possible by constructing a permutation model $ℳ$ with a set of atoms $A$ and a finite-to-one onto function $f : A \to ω$ such that for each free ultrafilter of $ω$ its preimage under $f$ does not extend to an ultrafilter. In addition, we show that in $ℳ$ there exists an ultrafilter compact...

Covering Property Axiom $C P A_{c u b e}$ and its consequences

Krzysztof Ciesielski, Janusz Pawlikowski (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We formulate a Covering Property Axiom $C P A_{c u b e}$ , which holds in the iterated perfect set model, and show that it implies easily the following facts. (a) For every S ⊂ ℝ of cardinality continuum there exists a uniformly continuous function g: ℝ → ℝ with g[S] = [0,1]. (b) If S ⊂ ℝ is either perfectly meager or universally null then S has cardinality less than . (c) cof() = ω₁ < , i.e., the cofinality of the measure ideal is ω₁. (d) For every uniformly bounded sequence $⟨ f ₙ \in ℝ^{ℝ} ⟩_{n < ω}$ of Borel functions...

Counting models of set theory

Ali Enayat (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let T denote a completion of ZF. We are interested in the number μ(T) of isomorphism types of countable well-founded models of T. Given any countable order type τ, we are also interested in the number μ(T,τ) of isomorphism types of countable models of T whose ordinals have order type τ. We prove: (1) Suppose ZFC has an uncountable well-founded model and $κ \in ω \cup ℵ ₀, ℵ ₁, 2^{ℵ ₀}$ . There is some completion T of ZF such that μ(T) = κ. (2) If α <ω₁ and μ(T,α) > ℵ₀, then $μ (T, α) = 2^{ℵ ₀}$ . (3) If α < ω₁ and T ⊢ V ≠ OD,...

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.

On biorthogonal systems whose functionals are finitely supported

Christina Brech, Piotr Koszmider (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that for each natural number n > 1, it is consistent that there is a compact Hausdorff totally disconnected space $K_{2 n}$ such that $C (K_{2 n})$ has no uncountable (semi)biorthogonal sequence ${(f_{ξ}, μ_{ξ})}_{ξ \in ω ₁}$ where $μ_{ξ}$ ’s are atomic measures with supports consisting of at most 2n-1 points of $K_{2 n}$ , but has biorthogonal systems ${(f_{ξ}, μ_{ξ})}_{ξ \in ω ₁}$ where $μ_{ξ}$ ’s are atomic measures with supports consisting of 2n points. This complements a result of Todorcevic which implies that it is consistent that such spaces do not exist: he proves...

Cardinal sequences of length < ω₂ under GCH

István Juhász, Lajos Soukup, William Weiss (2006)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let (α) denote the class of all cardinal sequences of length α associated with compact scattered spaces (or equivalently, superatomic Boolean algebras). Also put $_{λ} (α) = s \in (α) : s (0) = λ = m i n [s (β) : β < α]$ . We show that f ∈ (α) iff for some natural number n there are infinite cardinals $λ ₀ i > λ ₁ > . . . > λ_{n - 1}$ and ordinals $α ₀, . . ., α_{n - 1}$ such that $α = α ₀ + \dots + α_{n - 1}$ and $f = f ₀ ⏜ f ₁ ⏜ . . . ⏜ f_{n - 1}$ where each $f_{i} \in_{λ_{i}} (α_{i})$ . Under GCH we prove that if α < ω₂ then (i) $_{ω} (α) = s \in^{α} ω, ω ₁ : s (0) = ω$ ; (ii) if λ > cf(λ) = ω, $_{λ} (α) = s \in^{α} λ, λ ⁺ : s (0) = λ, s^{- 1} λ i s ω ₁ - c l o s e d i n α$ ; (iii) if cf(λ) = ω₁, $_{λ} (α) = s \in^{α} λ, λ ⁺ : s (0) = λ, s^{- 1} λ i s ω - c l o s e d a n d s u c c e s s o r - c l o s e d i n α$ ; (iv) if cf(λ) > ω₁, $_{λ} (α) =^{α} λ$ . This yields a complete characterization of the classes (α) for all...

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We prove that if $X$ is a first countable space with property $(D C (ω_{1}))$ and with a $G_{δ}$ -diagonal then the cardinality of $X$ is at most $𝔠$ . We also show that if $X$ is a first countable, DCCC, normal space then the extent of $X$ is at most $𝔠$ .
