Is the product of ccc spaces a ccc space?

Nina M. Roy (1989)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

In this expository paper it is shown that Martin's Axiom and the negation of the Continuum Hypothesis imply that the product of ccc spaces is a ccc space. The Continuum Hypothesis is then used to construct the Laver-Gavin example of two ccc spaces whose product is not a ccc space.

Isometry groups of non standard metric products

Bogdana Oliynyk (2013)

Open Mathematics

We consider isometry groups of a fairly general class of non standard products of metric spaces. We present sufficient conditions under which the isometry group of a non standard product of metric spaces splits as a permutation group into direct or wreath product of isometry groups of some metric spaces.

Kuratowski convergence on compacta and Hausdorff metric convergence on compacta

Primo Brandi, Rita Ceppitelli, Ľubica Holá (1999)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

This paper completes and improves results of [10]. Let ( X , d X ) , ( Y , d Y ) be two metric spaces and G be the space of all Y -valued continuous functions whose domain is a closed subset of X . If X is a locally compact metric space, then the Kuratowski convergence τ K and the Kuratowski convergence on compacta τ K c coincide on G . Thus if X and Y are boundedly compact metric spaces we have the equivalence of the convergence in the Attouch-Wets topology τ A W (generated by the box metric of d X and d Y ) and τ K c convergence on G ,...

Large families of dense pseudocompact subgroups of compact groups

Gerald Itzkowitz, Dmitri Shakhmatov (1995)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We prove that every nonmetrizable compact connected Abelian group G has a family H of size |G|, the maximal size possible, consisting of proper dense pseudocompact subgroups of G such that H ∩ H'={0} for distinct H,H' ∈ H. An easy example shows that connectedness of G is essential in the above result. In the general case we establish that every nonmetrizable compact Abelian group G has a family H of size |G| consisting of proper dense pseudocompact subgroups of G such that each intersection H H'...

Linking the closure and orthogonality properties of perfect morphisms in a category

David Holgate (1998)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We define perfect morphisms to be those which are the pullback of their image under a given endofunctor. The interplay of these morphisms with other generalisations of perfect maps is investigated. In particular, closure operator theory is used to link closure and orthogonality properties of such morphisms. A number of detailed examples are given.
