Suzukiʼs type characterizations of completeness for partial metric spaces and fixed points for partially ordered metric spaces
2012
Abstract Recently, Suzuki [T. Suzuki, A generalized Banach contraction principle that characterizes metric completeness, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 136 (2008) 1861–1869] proved a fixed point theorem that is a generalization of the Banach contraction principle and characterizes the metric completeness. In this paper we prove an analogous fixed point result for a self-mapping on a partial metric space or on a partially ordered metric space. Our results on partially ordered metric spaces generalize and extend some recent results of Ran and Reurings [A.C.M. Ran, M.C. Reurings, A fixed point theorem in partially ordered sets and some applications to matrix equations, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 132 (2004…
Weak regularity and consecutive topologizations and regularizations of pretopologies
2009
Abstract L. Foged proved that a weakly regular topology on a countable set is regular. In terms of convergence theory, this means that the topological reflection Tξ of a regular pretopology ξ on a countable set is regular. It is proved that this still holds if ξ is a regular σ -compact pretopology. On the other hand, it is proved that for each n ω there is a (regular) pretopology ρ (on a set of cardinality c ) such that ( RT ) k ρ > ( RT ) n ρ for each k n and ( RT ) n ρ is a Hausdorff compact topology, where R is the reflector to regular pretopologies. It is also shown that there exists a regular pretopology of Hausdorff RT -order ⩾ ω 0 . Moreover, all these pretopologies have the property…
Every Quojection is the Quotient of a Countable Product of Banach Spaces
1989
It is proved that every quojection in the sense of Bellenot and Dubinsky [1] is the quotient of a countable product of copies of l 1 (I) for a suitable index set I.
Quasi-Normable Preduals of Spaces of Holomorphic Functions
1997
Abstract Let H ( U ) denote the space of all holomorphic functions on an open subset U of a separable Frechet space E . Let τ ω denote the compact-ported topology on H ( U ) introduced by Nachbin. Let G ( U ) denote the predual of H ( U ) constructed by Mazet. In our main result we show that E is quasi-normable if and only if G ( U ) is quasi-normable if and only if ( H ( U ), τ ω ) satisfies the strict Mackey convergence condition.
Comparing weak versions of separability
2012
Our aim is to investigate spaces with sigma-discrete and meager dense sets, as well as selective versions of these properties. We construct numerous examples to point out the differences between these classes while answering questions of Tkachuk [30], Hutchinson [17] and the authors of [8].
Countably compact weakly Whyburn spaces
2015
The weak Whyburn property is a generalization of the classical sequential property that was studied by many authors. A space X is weakly Whyburn if for every non-closed set \({A \subset X}\) there is a subset \({B \subset A}\) such that \({\overline{B} \setminus A}\) is a singleton. We prove that every countably compact Urysohn space of cardinality smaller than the continuum is weakly Whyburn and show that, consistently, the Urysohn assumption is essential. We also give conditions for a (countably compact) weakly Whyburn space to be pseudoradial and construct a countably compact weakly Whyburn non-pseudoradial regular space, which solves a question asked by Angelo Bella in private communica…
ON TOPOLOGICAL SPACES WITH A UNIQUE QUASI-PROXIMITY
1994
Abstract Trying to solve the question of whether every T 1 topological space with a unique compatible quasi-proximity should be hereditarily compact, we show that it is true for product spaces as well as for locally hereditarily Lindelof spaces.
Countable connected spaces and bunches of arcs in R3
2006
Abstract We investigate the images (also called quotients) of countable connected bunches of arcs in R 3 , obtained by shrinking the arcs to points (see Section 2 for definitions of new terms). First, we give an intrinsic description of such images among T 1 -spaces: they are precisely countable and weakly first countable spaces. Moreover, an image is first countable if and only if it can be represented as a quotient of another bunch with its projection hereditarily quotient (Theorem 2.7). Applying this result we see, for instance, that two classical countable connected T 2 -spaces—the Bing space [R.H. Bing, A connected countable Hausdorff space, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 4 (1953) 474], and th…
Almost disjoint families of countable sets and separable complementation properties
2012
We study the separable complementation property (SCP) and its natural variations in Banach spaces of continuous functions over compacta $K_{\mathcal A}$ induced by almost disjoint families ${\mathcal A}$ of countable subsets of uncountable sets. For these spaces, we prove among others that $C(K_{\mathcal A})$ has the controlled variant of the separable complementation property if and only if $C(K_{\mathcal A})$ is Lindel\"of in the weak topology if and only if $K_{\mathcal A}$ is monolithic. We give an example of ${\mathcal A}$ for which $C(K_{\mathcal A})$ has the SCP, while $K_{\mathcal A}$ is not monolithic and an example of a space $C(K_{\mathcal A})$ with controlled and continuous SCP …
