On the Novak number of a hyperspace

Angelo Bella, Camillo Costantini (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

An estimate for the Novak number of a hyperspace with the Vietoris topology is given. As a consequence it is shown that this cardinal function can decrease passing from a space to its hyperspace.

On the preservation of separation axioms in products

Milan Z. Grulović, Miloš S. Kurilić (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We give sufficient and necessary conditions to be fulfilled by a filter Ψ and an ideal Λ in order that the Ψ -quotient space of the Λ -ideal product space preserves T k -properties ( k = 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , 3 1 2 ) (“in the sense of the Łos theorem”). Tychonoff products, box products and ultraproducts appear as special cases of the general construction.

On the quantification of uniform properties

Robert Lowen, Bart Windels (1997)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Approach spaces ([4], [5]) turned out to be a natural setting for the quantification of topological properties. Thus a measure of compactness for approach spaces generalizing the well-known Kuratowski measure of non-compactness for metric spaces was defined ([3]). This article shows that approach uniformities (introduced in [6]) have the same advantage with respect to uniform concepts: they allow a nice quantification of uniform properties, such as total boundedness and completeness.

On the set function

Sergio Macías (2024)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Inspired by the work that Professor Janusz R. Prajs did on homogeneous metric continua in his paper (2010) and the version of his work for Hausdorff continua with the uniform property of Effros done by this author, we introduce a new set function, , and present properties of it.

On the set-theoretic strength of the n-compactness of generalized Cantor cubes

Paul Howard, Eleftherios Tachtsis (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We investigate, in set theory without the Axiom of Choice , the set-theoretic strength of the statement Q(n): For every infinite set X, the Tychonoff product 2 X , where 2 = 0,1 has the discrete topology, is n-compact, where n = 2,3,4,5 (definitions are given in Section 1). We establish the following results: (1) For n = 3,4,5, Q(n) is, in (Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory minus ), equivalent to the Boolean Prime Ideal Theorem , whereas (2) Q(2) is strictly weaker than in set theory (Zermelo-Fraenkel set...
