Some results on groups with unique square roots
We present several results related to -spaces where is a finite cardinal or ; we consider products and some constructions that lead from spaces of these classes to other spaces of similar classes.
Using isometric embedding of metric trees into Banach spaces, this paper will investigate barycenters, type and cotype, and various measures of compactness of metric trees. A metric tree (T, d) is a metric space such that between any two of its points there is a unique arc that is isometric to an interval in ℝ. We begin our investigation by examining isometric embeddings of metric trees into Banach spaces. We then investigate the possible images x₀ = π((x₁ + ... + xₙ)/n), where π is a contractive...
We study relationships between separability with other properties in semi-stratifiable spaces. Especially, we prove the following statements: (1) If is a semi-stratifiable space, then is separable if and only if is ; (2) If is a star countable extent semi-stratifiable space and has a dense metrizable subspace, then is separable; (3) Let be a -monolithic star countable extent semi-stratifiable space. If and , then is hereditarily separable. Finally, we prove that for any -space...
We prove that, assuming CH, if is a space with -calibre and a zeroset diagonal, then is submetrizable. This gives a consistent positive answer to the question of Buzyakova in Observations on spaces with zeroset or regular -diagonals, Comment. Math. Univ. Carolin. 46 (2005), no. 3, 469–473. We also make some observations on spaces with -calibre.
In the realm of metric spaces we show in ZF that: (i) A metric space is compact if and only if it is countably compact and for every , every cover by open balls of radius has a countable subcover. (ii) Every second countable metric space has a countable base consisting of open balls if and only if the axiom of countable choice restricted to subsets of holds true. (iii) A countably compact metric space is separable if and only if it is second countable.
