A completion of is a field

José E. Marcos (2003)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We define various ring sequential convergences on and . We describe their properties and properties of their convergence completions. In particular, we define a convergence 𝕃 1 on by means of a nonprincipal ultrafilter on the positive prime numbers such that the underlying set of the completion is the ultraproduct of the prime finite fields / ( p ) . Further, we show that ( , 𝕃 1 * ) is sequentially precompact but fails to be strongly sequentially precompact; this solves a problem posed by D. Dikranjan.

A connection between multiplication in C(X) and the dimension of X

Andrzej Komisarski (2006)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let X be a compact Hausdorff topological space. We show that multiplication in the algebra C(X) is open iff dim X < 1. On the other hand, the existence of non-empty open sets U,V ⊂ C(X) satisfying Int(U· V) = ∅ is equivalent to dim X > 1. The preimage of every set of the first category in C(X) under the multiplication map is of the first category in C(X) × C(X) iff dim X ≤ 1.

A construction of a Fréchet-Urysohn space, and some convergence concepts

Aleksander V. Arhangel'skii (2010)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Some strong versions of the Fréchet-Urysohn property are introduced and studied. We also strengthen the concept of countable tightness and generalize the notions of first-countability and countable base. A construction of a topological space is described which results, in particular, in a Tychonoff countable Fréchet-Urysohn space which is not first-countable at any point. It is shown that this space can be represented as the image of a countable metrizable space under a continuous pseudoopen mapping....

A construction of noncontractible simply connected cell-like two-dimensional Peano continua

Katsuya Eda, Umed H. Karimov, Dušan Repovš (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Using the topologist sine curve we present a new functorial construction of cone-like spaces, starting in the category of all path-connected topological spaces with a base point and continuous maps, and ending in the subcategory of all simply connected spaces. If one starts from a noncontractible n-dimensional Peano continuum for any n > 0, then our construction yields a simply connected noncontractible (n + 1)-dimensional cell-like Peano continuum. In particular, starting from the circle 𝕊¹,...
