On linear functorial operators extending pseudometrics

Taras O. Banakh, Oleg Pikhurko (1997)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

For a functor F I d on the category of metrizable compacta, we introduce a conception of a linear functorial operator T = { T X : P c ( X ) P c ( F X ) } extending (for each X ) pseudometrics from X onto F X X (briefly LFOEP for F ). The main result states that the functor S P G n of G -symmetric power admits a LFOEP if and only if the action of G on { 1 , , n } has a one-point orbit. Since both the hyperspace functor exp and the probability measure functor P contain S P 2 as a subfunctor, this implies that both exp and P do not admit LFOEP.

On locales whose countably compact sublocales have compact closure

Themba Dube (2023)

Mathematica Bohemica

Among completely regular locales, we characterize those that have the feature described in the title. They are, of course, localic analogues of what are called cl -isocompact spaces. They have been considered in T. Dube, I. Naidoo, C. N. Ncube (2014), so here we give new characterizations that do not appear in this reference.

On maps preserving connectedness and/or compactness

István Juhász, Jan van Mill (2018)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We call a function f : X Y P-preserving if, for every subspace A X with property P, its image f ( A ) also has property P. Of course, all continuous maps are both compactness- and connectedness-preserving and the natural question about when the converse of this holds, i.e. under what conditions such a map is continuous, has a long history. Our main result is that any nontrivial product function, i.e. one having at least two nonconstant factors, that has connected domain, T 1 range, and is connectedness-preserving...

On Mazurkiewicz sets

Marta N. Charatonik, Włodzimierz J. Charatonik (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A Mazurkiewicz set M is a subset of a plane with the property that each straight line intersects M in exactly two points. We modify the original construction to obtain a Mazurkiewicz set which does not contain vertices of an equilateral triangle or a square. This answers some questions by L.D. Loveland and S.M. Loveland. We also use similar methods to construct a bounded noncompact, nonconnected generalized Mazurkiewicz set.

On multifunctions with closed graphs

D. Holý (2001)

Mathematica Bohemica

The set of points of upper semicontinuity of multi-valued mappings with a closed graph is studied. A topology on the space of multi-valued mappings with a closed graph is introduced.

On n -thin dense sets in powers of topological spaces

Adam Bartoš (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A subset of a product of topological spaces is called n -thin if every its two distinct points differ in at least n coordinates. We generalize a construction of Gruenhage, Natkaniec, and Piotrowski, and obtain, under CH, a countable T 3 space X without isolated points such that X n contains an n -thin dense subset, but X n + 1 does not contain any n -thin dense subset. We also observe that part of the construction can be carried out under MA.
