Selective Separability

An open question of Gruenhage asks if all strategically selectively separable spaces are Markov selectively separable, a game-theoretic statement known to hold for countable spaces. As a corollary of a result by Berner and Juh?sz, we note that the ?strong? version of this statement, where the second player is restricted to selecting single points rather than finite subsets, holds for all T3 spaces without isolated points. Continuing this investigation, we also consider games related to selective sequential separability, and demonstrate results analogous to those for selective separability. In particular, strong selective sequential separability in the presence of the Ramsey property may be reduced to a weaker condition on a countable sequentially dense subset. Additionally, ?- and ?-covering properties on X are shown to be equivalent to corresponding sequential properties on Cp(X). A strengthening of the Ramsey property is also introduced, which is still equivalent to ?2 and ?4 in the context of Cp(X).

Regular Closed

Let X be a metric space. Assume either that X is locally compact or that X has no more than countably many isolated points. It is proved that if F is a nowhere dense subset of X, then it is regularly nowhere dense (in the sense of Katětov) and hence is contained in the topological boundary of some regular-closed subset of X. This result is used to obtain new properties of the remote points of the Stone-Čech compactification of a metric space without isolated points.Let βX denote the Stone-Čech compactification of the completely regular Hausdorff space X. Fine and Gillman [3] define a point p of βX to be remote if p is not in the βX-closure of a discrete subset of X.

Game Theoretic

AbstractThe game is played on a complete Boolean algebra , by two players. White and Black, in κ-many moves (where κ is an infinite cardinal). At the beginning White chooses a non-zero element p ∈ . In the α-th move White chooses pα ∈ (0, p) and Black responds choosing iα ∈{0, 1}. White winsthe play iff . where and .The corresponding game theoretic properties of c.B.a.'s are investigated. So, Black has a winning strategy (w.s.) if κ ≥ π() or if contains a κ-closed dense subset. On the other hand, if White has a w.s., then κ ∈ . The existence of w.s. is characterized in a combinatorial way and in terms of forcing. In particular, if 2<κ = κ ∈ Reg and forcing by preserves the regularity of κ, then White has a w.s. iff the power 2κ is collapsed to κ in some extension. It is shown that, under the GCH, for each set S ⊆ Reg there is a c.B.a. such that White (respectively. Black) has a w.s. for each infinite cardinal κ ∈ S (resp. κ ∉ S). Also it is shown consistent that for each κ ∈ Reg there is a c.B.a. on which the game is undetermined.

Abstract For a Tychonoff space X and a family λ of subsets of X, we denote by Cλ(X) the space of all real-valued continuous functions on X with the set-open topology. A Menger space is a topological space in which for every sequence of open covers 𝓤1, 𝓤2, … of the space there are finite sets 𝓕1 ⊂ 𝓤1, 𝓕2 ⊂ 𝓤2, … such that family 𝓕1 ∪ 𝓕2 ∪ … covers the space. In this paper, we study the Menger and projective Menger properties of a Hausdorff space Cλ(X). Our main results state that Cλ(X) is Menger if and only if Cλ(X) is σ-compact; Cp(Y | X) is projective Menger if and only if Cp(Y | X) is σ-pseudocompact where Y is a dense subset of X.

Remote Points

0. Introduction. A point p ∈ βX\X is called a remote point of X if P ∉ clβXA for each nowhere dense subset A of X. If X is a topological sum Σ{Xn : n ∈ ω} we call nice if {n : F ∩ Xn = ∅} is finite for each . We call remote if for each nowhere dense subset A of X there is an with F ∩ A = ∅ and n-linked if each intersection of at most n elements of is non-empty.

Positive Results

AbstractErgodic optimization is the process of finding invariant probability measures that maximize the integral of a given function. It has been conjectured that ‘most’ functions are optimized by measures supported on a periodic orbit, and it has been proved in several separable spaces that an open and dense subset of functions is optimized by measures supported on a periodic orbit. All known positive results have been for separable spaces. We give in this paper the first positive result for a non-separable space, the space of super-continuous functions on the full shift, where the set of functions optimized by periodic orbit measures contains an open dense subset.

AbstractThe almost transitive norm problem is studied for Lp (μ, X), C(K, X) and for certain Orlicz and Musielak-Orlicz spaces. For example if p ≠ 2 < ∞ then Lp (μ) has almost transitive norm if and only if the measure μ is homogeneous. It is shown that the only Musielak-Orlicz space with almost transitive norm is the Lp-space. Furthermore, an Orlicz space has an almost transitive norm if and only if the norm is maximal. Lp (μ, X) has almost transitive norm if Lp(μ) and X have. Separable spaces with non-trivial Lp-structure fail to have transitive norms. Spaces with nontrivial centralizers and extreme points in the unit ball also fail to have almost transitive norms.

Selective Separability

For a Tychonoff space X, we denote by (C(X), ?k ?p) the bitopological space of all real-valued continuous functions on X, where ?k is the compact-open topology and ?p is the topology of pointwise convergence. In the papers [6, 7, 13] variations of selective separability and tightness in (C(X),?k,?p) were investigated. In this paper we continue to study the selective properties and the corresponding topological games in the space (C(X),?k,?p).

Impact Erosion

AbstractThe clear evidence of water erosion on the surface of Mars suggests an early climate much more clement than the present one. Using a model for the origin of inner planet atmospheres by icy planetesimal impact, it is possible to reconstruct the original volatile inventory on Mars, starting from the thin atmosphere we observe today. Evidence for cometary impact can be found in the present abundances and isotope ratios of gases in the atmosphere and in SNC meteorites. If we invoke impact erosion to account for the present excess of129Xe, we predict an early inventory equivalent to at least 7.5 bars of CO2. This reservoir of volatiles is adequate to produce a substantial greenhouse effect, provided there is some small addition of SO2(volcanoes) or reduced gases (cometary impact). Thus it seems likely that conditions on early Mars were suitable for the origin of life – biogenic elements and liquid water were present at favorable conditions of pressure and temperature. Whether life began on Mars remains an open question, receiving hints of a positive answer from recent work on one of the Martian meteorites. The implications for habitable zones around other stars include the need to have rocky planets with sufficient mass to preserve atmospheres in the face of intensive early bombardment.
