Cofinal completeness of the Hausdorff metric topology
A net in a Hausdorff uniform space is called cofinally Cauchy if for each entourage, there exists a cofinal (rather than residual) set of indices whose corresponding terms are pairwise within the entourage. In a metric space equipped with the associated metric uniformity, if each cofinally Cauchy sequence has a cluster point, then so does each cofinally Cauchy net, and the space is called cofinally complete. Here we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the nonempty closed subsets of the...
Coincidence of Vietoris and Wijsman Topologies: A New Proof
Let (X, d) be a metric space and CL(X) the family of all nonempty closed subsets of X. We provide a new proof of the fact that the coincidence of the Vietoris and Wijsman topologies induced by the metric d forces X to be a compact space. In the literature only a more involved and indirect proof using the proximal topology is known. Here we do not need this intermediate step. Moreover we prove that (X, d) is boundedly compact if and only if the bounded Vietoris and Wijsman topologies on CL(X) coincide....

Compact widths in metric trees
The definition of n-width of a bounded subset A in a normed linear space X is based on the existence of n-dimensional subspaces. Although the concept of an n-dimensional subspace is not available for metric trees, in this paper, using the properties of convex and compact subsets, we present a notion of n-widths for a metric tree, called Tn-widths. Later we discuss properties of Tn-widths, and show that the compact width is attained. A relationship between the compact widths and Tn-widths is also...

Compactifications of ℕ and Polishable subgroups of
We study homeomorphism groups of metrizable compactifications of ℕ. All of those groups can be represented as almost zero-dimensional Polishable subgroups of the group . As a corollary, we show that all Polish groups are continuous homomorphic images of almost zero-dimensional Polishable subgroups of . We prove a sufficient condition for these groups to be one-dimensional and also study their descriptive complexity. In the last section we associate with every Polishable ideal on ℕ a certain Polishable...

Continuous pseudo-hairy spaces and continuous pseudo-fans
A compact metric space X̃ is said to be a continuous pseudo-hairy space over a compact space X ⊂ X̃ provided there exists an open, monotone retraction such that all fibers are pseudo-arcs and any continuum in X̃ joining two different fibers of r intersects X. A continuum is called a continuous pseudo-fan of a compactum X if there are a point and a family ℱ of pseudo-arcs such that , any subcontinuum of intersecting two different elements of ℱ contains c, and ℱ is homeomorphic to X (with...
