C 1 -minimal subsets of the circle

Dusa McDuff (1981)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Necessary conditions are found for a Cantor subset of the circle to be minimal for some C 1 -diffeomorphism. These conditions are not satisfied by the usual ternary Cantor set.

C p ( I ) is not subsequential

Viacheslav I. Malykhin (1999)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

If a separable dense in itself metric space is not a union of countably many nowhere dense subsets, then its C p -space is not subsequential.

C * -points vs P -points and P -points

Jorge Martinez, Warren Wm. McGovern (2022)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In a Tychonoff space X , the point p X is called a C * -point if every real-valued continuous function on C { p } can be extended continuously to p . Every point in an extremally disconnected space is a C * -point. A classic example is the space 𝐖 * = ω 1 + 1 consisting of the countable ordinals together with ω 1 . The point ω 1 is known to be a C * -point as well as a P -point. We supply a characterization of C * -points in totally ordered spaces. The remainder of our time is aimed at studying when a point in a product space is a C * -point....

C ( X ) can sometimes determine X without X being realcompact

Melvin Henriksen, Biswajit Mitra (2005)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

As usual C ( X ) will denote the ring of real-valued continuous functions on a Tychonoff space X . It is well-known that if X and Y are realcompact spaces such that C ( X ) and C ( Y ) are isomorphic, then X and Y are homeomorphic; that is C ( X ) determines X . The restriction to realcompact spaces stems from the fact that C ( X ) and C ( υ X ) are isomorphic, where υ X is the (Hewitt) realcompactification of X . In this note, a class of locally compact spaces X that includes properly the class of locally compact realcompact spaces is exhibited...

Calibres, compacta and diagonals

Paul Gartside, Jeremiah Morgan (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

For a space Z let 𝒦(Z) denote the partially ordered set of all compact subspaces of Z under set inclusion. If X is a compact space, Δ is the diagonal in X², and 𝒦(X²∖Δ) has calibre (ω₁,ω), then X is metrizable. There is a compact space X such that X²∖Δ has relative calibre (ω₁,ω) in 𝒦(X²∖Δ), but which is not metrizable. Questions of Cascales et al. (2011) concerning order constraints on 𝒦(A) for every subspace of a space X are answered.

Can we assign the Borel hulls in a monotone way?

Márton Elekes, András Máthé (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A hull of A ⊆ [0,1] is a set H containing A such that λ*(H) = λ*(A). We investigate all four versions of the following problem. Does there exist a monotone (with respect to inclusion) map that assigns a Borel/ G δ hull to every negligible/measurable subset of [0,1]? Three versions turn out to be independent of ZFC, while in the fourth case we only prove that the nonexistence of a monotone G δ hull operation for all measurable sets is consistent. It remains open whether existence here is also consistent....
