The compactificability classes of certain spaces.
The compact Hausdorff space X has the CSWP iff every subalgebra of C(X,ℂ) which separates points and contains the constant functions is dense in C(X,ℂ). Results of W. Rudin (1956) and Hoffman and Singer (1960) show that all scattered X have the CSWP and many non-scattered X fail the CSWP, but it was left open whether having the CSWP is just equivalent to being scattered. Here, we prove some general facts about the CSWP; in particular we show that if X is a compact ordered space,...
The set of squares in the group of autohomeomorphisms of the circle is complete analytic, and hence analytic but not Borel.
Let G be a maximally almost periodic (MAP) Abelian group and let ℬ be a boundedness on G in the sense of Vilenkin. We study the relations between ℬ and the Bohr topology of G for some well known groups with boundedness (G,ℬ). As an application, we prove that the Bohr topology of a topological group which is topologically isomorphic to the direct product of a locally convex space and an -group, contains “many” discrete C-embedded subsets which are C*-embedded in their Bohr compactification. This...
Topological spaces with generalized symmetries are defined and extensions of the Conley index of a compact isolated invariant set of the flow preserving the structures introduced are proposed. One of the two new indexes is constructed with no additional assumption on the examined set in terms of symmetry invariance.
Let X, Y be two Banach spaces. We say that Y is a quasi-quotient of X if there is a continuous operator R: X → Y such that its range, R(X), is dense in Y. Let X be a nonseparable Banach space, and let U, W be closed subspaces of X and Y, respectively. We prove that if X has the Controlled Separable Projection Property (CSPP) (this is a weaker notion than the WCG property) and Y is a quasi-quotient of X, then the structure of Y resembles the structure of a separable Banach space: (a) Y/W is norm-separable...
