A semifilter approach to selection principles

Lubomyr Zdomsky (2005)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we develop the semifilter approach to the classical Menger and Hurewicz properties and show that the small cardinal 𝔤 is a lower bound of the additivity number of the σ -ideal generated by Menger subspaces of the Baire space, and under 𝔲 < 𝔤 every subset X of the real line with the property Split ( Λ , Λ ) is Hurewicz, and thus it is consistent with ZFC that the property Split ( Λ , Λ ) is preserved by unions of less than 𝔟 subsets of the real line.

A semifilter approach to selection principles II: τ * -covers

Lubomyr Zdomsky (2006)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Developing the idea of assigning to a large cover of a topological space a corresponding semifilter, we show that every Menger topological space has the property fin ( 𝒪 , T * ) provided ( 𝔲 < 𝔤 ) , and every space with the property fin ( 𝒪 , T * ) is Hurewicz provided ( Depth + ( [ ω ] 0 ) 𝔟 ) . Combining this with the results proven in cited literature, we settle all questions whether (it is consistent that) the properties P and Q [do not] coincide, where P and Q run over fin ( 𝒪 , Γ ) , fin ( 𝒪 , T ) , fin ( 𝒪 , T * ) , fin ( 𝒪 , Ω ) , and fin ( 𝒪 , 𝒪 ) .

A short note on separable frames

Themba Dube (1996)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Following the introduction of separability in frames ([2]) we investigate further properties of this notion and establish some consequences of the Urysohn metrization theorem for frames that are frame counterparts of corresponding results in spaces. In particular we also show that regular subframes of compact metrizable frames are metrizable.

A solution to Comfort's question on the countable compactness of powers of a topological group

Artur Hideyuki Tomita (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

In 1990, Comfort asked Question 477 in the survey book “Open Problems in Topology”: Is there, for every (not necessarily infinite) cardinal number α 2 , a topological group G such that G γ is countably compact for all cardinals γ < α, but G α is not countably compact? Hart and van Mill showed in 1991 that α = 2 answers this question affirmatively under M A c o u n t a b l e . Recently, Tomita showed that every finite cardinal answers Comfort’s question in the affirmative, also from M A c o u n t a b l e . However, the question has remained...

A strengthening of the Katětov-Tong insertion theorem

Tomasz Kubiak (1993)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Normal spaces are characterized in terms of an insertion type theorem, which implies the Katětov-Tong theorem. The proof actually provides a simple necessary and sufficient condition for the insertion of an ordered pair of lower and upper semicontinuous functions between two comparable real-valued functions. As a consequence of the latter, we obtain a characterization of completely normal spaces by real-valued functions.

A sufficient condition of full normality

Tomáš Kaiser (1996)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We present a direct constructive proof of full normality for a class of spaces (locales) that includes, among others, all metrizable ones.
