A solution to Comfort's question on the countable compactness of powers of a topological group

Artur Hideyuki Tomita (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

In 1990, Comfort asked Question 477 in the survey book “Open Problems in Topology”: Is there, for every (not necessarily infinite) cardinal number α 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 remained...

Absolute countable compactness of products and topological groups

Yan-Kui Song (1999)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

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)].

Cardinal invariants of paratopological groups

Iván Sánchez (2013)

Topological Algebra and its Applications

We show that a regular totally ω-narrow paratopological group G has countable index of regularity, i.e., for every neighborhood U of the identity e of G, we can find a neighborhood V of e and a countable family of neighborhoods of e in G such that ∩W∈γ VW−1⊆ U. We prove that every regular (Hausdorff) totally !-narrow paratopological group is completely regular (functionally Hausdorff). We show that the index of regularity of a regular paratopological group is less than or equal to the weak Lindelöf...

Clone properties of topological spaces

Věra Trnková (2006)

Archivum Mathematicum

Clone properties are the properties expressible by the first order sentence of the clone language. The present paper is a contribution to the field of problems asking when distinct sentences of the language determine distinct topological properties. We fully clarify the relations among the rigidity, the fix-point property, the image-determining property and the coconnectedness.

Closed embeddings into complements of Σ -products

Aleksander V. Arhangel'skii, Miroslav Hušek (2008)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In some sense, a dual property to that of Valdivia compact is considered, namely the property to be embedded as a closed subspace into a complement of a Σ -subproduct of a Tikhonov cube. All locally compact spaces are co-Valdivia spaces (and only those among metrizable spaces or spaces having countable type). There are paracompact non-locally compact co-Valdivia spaces. A possibly new type of ultrafilters lying in between P-ultrafilters and weak P-ultrafilters is introduced. Under Martin axiom and...

Closed mapping theorems on k -spaces with point-countable k -networks

Alexander Shibakov (1995)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We prove some closed mapping theorems on k -spaces with point-countable k -networks. One of them generalizes Lašnev’s theorem. We also construct an example of a Hausdorff space U r with a countable base that admits a closed map onto metric space which is not compact-covering. Another our result says that a k -space X with a point-countable k -network admitting a closed surjection which is not compact-covering contains a closed copy of U r .

Compact spaces that do not map onto finite products

Antonio Avilés (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We provide examples of nonseparable compact spaces with the property that any continuous image which is homeomorphic to a finite product of spaces has a maximal prescribed number of nonseparable factors.
