Almost continuous multifunctions
We introduce a new class of functions called almost -closed and use the functions to improve several preservation theorems of normality and regularity and also their generalizations. The main result of the paper is that normality and weak normality are preserved under almost -closed continuous surjections.
We give an abstract version of Sierpiński's theorem which says that the closure in the uniform convergence topology of the algebra spanned by the sums of lower and upper semicontinuous functions is the class of all Baire 1 functions. Later we show that a natural generalization of Sierpiński's result for the uniform closure of the space of all sums of A and CA functions is not true. Namely we show that the uniform closure of the space of all sums of A and CA functions is a proper subclass of the...
We prove that there exists an example of a metrizable non-discrete space , such that but where and is the space of all continuous functions from into reals equipped with the topology of pointwise convergence. It answers a question of Arhangel’skii ([2, Problem 4]).
We present a simple proof of a Banach-Stone type Theorem. The method used in the proof also provides an answer to a conjecture of Cao, Reilly and Xiong.
We prove a fixed point theorem for Borsuk continuous mappings with spherical values, which extends a previous result. We apply some nonstandard properties of the Stiefel-Whitney classes.
