Some examples related to colorings

Michael van Hartskamp, Jan van Mill (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We complement the literature by proving that for a fixed-point free map f : X X the statements (1) f admits a finite functionally closed cover 𝒜 with f [ A ] A = for all A 𝒜 (i.e., a coloring) and (2) β f is fixed-point free are equivalent. When functionally closed is weakened to closed, we show that normality is sufficient to prove equivalence, and give an example to show it cannot be omitted. We also show that a theorem due to van Mill is sharp: for every n 2 we construct a strongly zero-dimensional Tychonov space...

Some relative properties on normality and paracompactness, and their absolute embeddings

Shinji Kawaguchi, Ryoken Sokei (2005)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Paracompactness ( = 2 -paracompactness) and normality of a subspace Y in a space X defined by Arhangel’skii and Genedi [4] are fundamental in the study of relative topological properties ([2], [3]). These notions have been investigated by primary using of the notion of weak C - or weak P -embeddings, which are extension properties of functions defined in [2] or [18]. In fact, Bella and Yaschenko [8] characterized Tychonoff spaces which are normal in every larger Tychonoff space, and this result is essentially...

Some results on sequentially compact extensions

Maria Cristina Vipera (1998)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The class of Hausdorff spaces (or of Tychonoff spaces) which admit a Hausdorff (respectively Tychonoff) sequentially compact extension has not been characterized. We give some new conditions, in particular, we prove that every Tychonoff locally sequentially compact space has a Tychonoff one-point sequentially compact extension. We also give some results about extension of functions and about lattice properties of the family of all minimal sequentially compact extensions of a given space.

Some versions of relative paracompactness and their absolute embeddings

Shinji Kawaguchi (2007)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Arhangel’skii [Sci. Math. Jpn. 55 (2002), 153–201] defined notions of relative paracompactness in terms of locally finite open partial refinement and asked if one can generalize the notions above to the well known Michael’s criteria of paracompactness in [17] and [18]. In this paper, we consider some versions of relative paracompactness defined by locally finite (not necessarily open) partial refinement or locally finite closed partial refinement, and also consider closure-preserving cases, such...

Spectral Calculus and Lipschitz Extension for Barycentric Metric Spaces

Manor Mendel, Assaf Naor (2013)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

The metric Markov cotype of barycentric metric spaces is computed, yielding the first class of metric spaces that are not Banach spaces for which this bi-Lipschitz invariant is understood. It is shown that this leads to new nonlinear spectral calculus inequalities, as well as a unified framework for Lipschitz extension, including new Lipschitz extension results for CAT (0) targets. An example that elucidates the relation between metric Markov cotype and Rademacher cotype is analyzed, showing that...

The Dugundji extension property can fail in ωµ -metrizable spaces

Ian Stares, Jerry Vaughan (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We show that there exist ω μ -metrizable spaces which do not have the Dugundji extension property ( 2 ω 1 with the countable box topology is such a space). This answers a question posed by the second author in 1972, and shows that certain results of van Douwen and Borges are false.

The homotopies of admissible multivalued mappings

Mirosław Ślosarski (2012)

Open Mathematics

Certain properties of homotopies of admissible multivalued mappings shall be presented, along with their applications as the tool for examining the acyclicity of a space.

Topological compactifications

Benjamin Vejnar (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We study those compactifications of a space such that every autohomeomorphism of the space can be continuously extended over the compactification. These are called H-compactifications. Van Douwen proved that there are exactly three H-compactifications of the real line. We prove that there exist only two H-compactifications of Euclidean spaces of higher dimension. Next we show that there are 26 H-compactifications of a countable sum of real lines and 11 H-compactifications of a countable sum of Euclidean...
