About one fixed point theorem.
We prove a dichotomy theorem for remainders in compactifications of homogeneous spaces: given a homogeneous space , every remainder of is either realcompact and meager or Baire. In addition we show that two other recent dichotomy theorems for remainders of topological groups due to Arhangel’skii cannot be extended to homogeneous spaces.
We study some generalized metric properties on the hyperspace of finite subsets of a space endowed with the Vietoris topology. We prove that has a point-star network consisting of (countable) -covers if and only if so does . Moreover, has a sequence of -covers with property which is a point-star network if and only if so does , where is one of the following properties: point-finite, point-countable, compact-finite, compact-countable, locally finite, locally countable. On the other...
In this paper, we generalize Vaughan's and Bonanzinga's results on absolute countable compactness of product spaces and give an example of a separable, countably compact, topological group which is not absolutely countably compact. The example answers questions of Matveev [8, Question 1] and Vaughan [9, Question (1)].
A concept of an absolute end point introduced and studied by Ira Rosenholtz for arc-like continua is extended in the paper to be applied arbitrary irreducible continua. Some interrelations are studied between end points, absolute end points and points at which a given irreducible continuum is smooth.
The notion of an absolute n-fold hyperspace suspension is introduced. It is proved that these hyperspaces are unicoherent Peano continua and are dimensionally homogeneous. It is shown that the 2-sphere is the only finite-dimensional absolute 1-fold hyperspace suspension. Furthermore, it is shown that there are only two possible finite-dimensional absolute n-fold hyperspace suspensions for each n ≥ 3 and none when n = 2. Finally, it is shown that infinite-dimensional absolute n-fold hyperspace suspensions...
