A remark on the tightness of products
We observe the existence of a -compact, separable topological group and a countable topological group such that the tightness of is countable, but the tightness of is equal to .

A solution to Comfort's question on the countable compactness of powers of a topological group
In 1990, Comfort asked Question 477 in the survey book “Open Problems in Topology”: Is there, for every (not necessarily infinite) cardinal number , a topological group G such that is countably compact for all cardinals γ < α, but is not countably compact? Hart and van Mill showed in 1991 that α = 2 answers this question affirmatively under . Recently, Tomita showed that every finite cardinal answers Comfort’s question in the affirmative, also from . However, the question has remained...
A spectral characterization of skeletal maps
We prove that a map between two realcompact spaces is skeletal if and only if it is homeomorphic to the limit map of a skeletal morphism between ω-spectra with surjective limit projections.

About -covers and -networks on the Vietoris hyperspace
We study some generalized metric properties on the hyperspace of finite subsets of a space endowed with the Vietoris topology. We prove that has a point-star network consisting of (countable) -covers if and only if so does . Moreover, has a sequence of -covers with property which is a point-star network if and only if so does , where is one of the following properties: point-finite, point-countable, compact-finite, compact-countable, locally finite, locally countable. On the other...
Absolute countable compactness of products and topological groups
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)].
Absolute n-fold hyperspace suspensions
The notion of an absolute n-fold hyperspace suspension is introduced. It is proved that these hyperspaces are unicoherent Peano continua and are dimensionally homogeneous. It is shown that the 2-sphere is the only finite-dimensional absolute 1-fold hyperspace suspension. Furthermore, it is shown that there are only two possible finite-dimensional absolute n-fold hyperspace suspensions for each n ≥ 3 and none when n = 2. Finally, it is shown that infinite-dimensional absolute n-fold hyperspace suspensions...

Addition theorems for dense subspaces
We study topological spaces that can be represented as the union of a finite collection of dense metrizable subspaces. The assumption that the subspaces are dense in the union plays a crucial role below. In particular, Example 3.1 shows that a paracompact space which is the union of two dense metrizable subspaces need not be a -space. However, if a normal space is the union of a finite family of dense subspaces each of which is metrizable by a complete metric, then is also metrizable by...
Affine group acting on hyperspaces of compact convex subsets of ℝⁿ
For every n ≥ 2, let cc(ℝⁿ) denote the hyperspace of all nonempty compact convex subsets of the Euclidean space ℝⁿ endowed with the Hausdorff metric topology. Let cb(ℝⁿ) be the subset of cc(ℝⁿ) consisting of all compact convex bodies. In this paper we discover several fundamental properties of the natural action of the affine group Aff(n) on cb(ℝⁿ). We prove that the space E(n) of all n-dimensional ellipsoids is an Aff(n)-equivariant retract of cb(ℝⁿ). This is applied to show that cb(ℝⁿ) is homeomorphic...
