On a class of subalgebras of C(X) with applications to βX
The structure of binary coproducts in the category of frames is analyzed, and the results are then applied widely in the study of compactness, local compactness (continuous frames), separatedness, pushouts and closed frame homomorphisms.
The author has recently shown (2014) that separable, selectively (a)-spaces cannot include closed discrete subsets of size . It follows that, assuming CH, separable selectively (a)-spaces necessarily have countable extent. However, in the same paper it is shown that the weaker hypothesis "" is not enough to ensure the countability of all closed discrete subsets of such spaces. In this paper we show that if one adds the hypothesis of local compactness, a specific effective (i.e., Borel) parametrized...
In 1998, S. Romaguera [13] introduced the notion of cofinally Čech-complete spaces equivalent to spaces which we later called ultracomplete spaces. We define the subset of points of a space at which is not locally compact and call it an nlc set. In 1999, Garc’ıa-Máynez and S. Romaguera [6] proved that every cofinally Čech-complete space has a bounded nlc set. In 2001, D. Buhagiar [1] proved that every ultracomplete GO-space has a compact nlc set. In this paper, ultracomplete spaces which have...
We characterize those Tychonoff quasi-uniform spaces for which the Hausdorff-Bourbaki quasi-uniformity is uniformly locally compact on the family of nonempty compact subsets of . We deduce, among other results, that the Hausdorff-Bourbaki quasi-uniformity of the locally finite quasi-uniformity of a Tychonoff space is uniformly locally compact on if and only if is paracompact and locally compact. We also introduce the notion of a co-uniformly locally compact quasi-uniform space and show...
It is shown that for every integer n the (2n+1)th power of any locally path-connected metrizable space of the first Baire category is 𝓐₁[n]-universal, i.e., contains a closed topological copy of each at most n-dimensional metrizable σ-compact space. Also a one-dimensional σ-compact absolute retract X is found such that the power X^{n+1} is 𝓐₁[n]-universal for every n.
