A result on best approximation in p -normed spaces

Abdul Latif (2001)

Archivum Mathematicum

We study best approximation in p -normed spaces via a general common fixed point principle. Our results unify and extend some known results of Carbone [ca:pt], Dotson [do:bs], Jungck and Sessa [ju:at], Singh [si:at] and many of others.

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...
