It is well-known that the topological defect of every Fréchet closure space is less than or equal to the first uncountable ordinal number . In the case of Hausdorff Fréchet closure spaces we obtain some general conditions sufficient so that the topological defect is exactly . Some classical and recent results are deduced from our criterion.
This paper investigates necessary and sufficient conditions for a space to have an H-closed extension with countable remainder. For countable spaces we are able to give two characterizations of those spaces admitting an H-closed extension with countable remainder. The general case is more difficult, however, we arrive at a necessary condition — a generalization of Čech completeness, and several sufficient conditions for a space to have an H-closed extension with countable remainder. In particular,...
The notion of a Hausdorff function is generalized to the concept of H-closed function and the concept of an H-closed extension of a Hausdorff function is developed. Each Hausdorff function is shown to have an H-closed extension.
Several classes of hereditarily normal spaces are characterized in terms of extending upper semi-continuous compact-valued mappings. The case of controlled extensions is considered as well. Applications are obtained for real-valued semi-continuous functions.
The classical Erdös spaces are obtained as the subspaces of real separable Hilbert space consisting of the points with all coordinates rational or all coordinates irrational, respectively. One can create variations by specifying in which set each coordinate is allowed to vary. We investigate the homogeneity of the resulting subspaces. Our two main results are: in case all coordinates are allowed to vary in the same set the subspace need not be homogeneous, and by specifying different sets for different...
It is well known that every -factorizable group is -narrow, but not vice versa. One of the main problems regarding -factorizable groups is whether this class of groups is closed under taking continuous homomorphic images or, alternatively, whether every -narrow group is a continuous homomorphic image of an -factorizable group. Here we show that the second hypothesis is definitely false. This result follows from the theorem stating that if a continuous homomorphic image of an -factorizable...
