In this paper we give a complete isomorphical classification of free topological groups $FM\left(X\right)$ of locally compact zero-dimensional separable metric spaces $X$. From this classification we obtain for locally compact zero-dimensional separable metric spaces $X$ and $Y$ that the free topological groups $FM\left(X\right)$ and $FM\left(Y\right)$ are isomorphic if and only if $C_p\left(X\right)$ and $C_p\left(Y\right)$ are linearly homeomorphic.

Given a Tychonoff space $X$ and an infinite cardinal $\kappa$, we prove that exponential $\kappa$-domination in $X$ is equivalent to exponential $\kappa$-cofinality of $C_p\left(X\right)$. On the other hand, exponential $\kappa$-cofinality of $X$ is equivalent to exponential $\kappa$-domination in $C_p\left(X\right)$. We show that every exponentially $\kappa$-cofinal space $X$ has a ${\kappa }^{+}$-small diagonal; besides, if $X$ is $\kappa$-stable, then $nw\left(X\right)\le \kappa$. In particular, any compact exponentially $\kappa$-cofinal space has weight not exceeding $\kappa$. We also establish that any exponentially $\kappa$-cofinal space $X$ with...

The purpose of this note is to prove the exponential law for uniformly continuous proper maps.

We show that exponential separability is an inverse invariant of closed maps with countably compact exponentially separable fibers. This implies that it is preserved by products with a scattered compact factor and in the products of sequential countably compact spaces. We also provide an example of a $\sigma$-compact crowded space in which all countable subspaces are scattered. If $X$ is a Lindelöf space and every $Y\subset X$ with $\left|Y\right|\le 2^{{\omega }_1}$ is scattered, then $X$ is functionally countable; if every $Y\subset X$ with $\left|Y\right|\le 2^{𝔠}$ is scattered, then...

We study extension operators between spaces of continuous functions on the spaces $\sigma ₙ\left(2^X\right)$ of subsets of X of cardinality at most n. As an application, we show that if $B_H$ is the unit ball of a nonseparable Hilbert space H equipped with the weak topology, then, for any 0 < λ < μ, there is no extension operator $T:C\left(\lambda B_H\right)\to C\left(\mu B_H\right)$.
