Homogeneous linearly ordered spaces

Every compact subset of a homogeneous generalized ordered (GO) space has character at most $ω_1$ and cardinality at most $2^{ω_1}$; if such a subset has uncountable character, then the character of the whole space equals $ω_1$ and its $π$-character is countable. We construct a homogeneous $σ$-compact linearly ordered space (LOTS) $\mathbf{H}$ containing a compact subset $\mathbf{S}$ of cardinality $2^{ω_1}$ whose character is $ω_1$ at every point and whose weight and Souslin number are both $2^{ω_1}$; thus both bounds obtained are sharp. We prove that a semitopological group that is a GO space is hereditarily paracompact; if, in addition, it is not a $P$-space, then it is submetrizable, has countable character, and its compact subsets are metrizable. Every linearly ordered semitopological group (and, more generally, every GO semitopological group) is either metrizable or is a $P$-space; the same holds for topological groups. We also show that in an order-homogeneous LOTS every compact subset is first countable.

Baire-type properties of topological vector spaces

Burzyk, Kliś and Lipecki proved that every topological vector space (tvs) $E$ with the property $(K)$ is a Baire space. Kcakol and Sánchez Ruiz proved that every sequentially complete Fréchet--Urysohn locally convex space (lcs) is Baire. Being motivated by the property $(K)$ and the notion of a Mackey null sequence we introduce a property $(MK)$ which is strictly weaker than the property $(K)$, and show that any locally complete lcs has the property $(MK)$. We prove that any $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn tvs with the property $(MK)$ is a Baire space; consequently, each locally complete $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn lcs is a Baire space. This generalizes both the aforementioned results. We construct a feral Baire space $E$ with the property $(K)$ and which is not $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn. Although a $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn lcs $E$ can be not a Baire space, we show that $E$ is always $b$-Baire-like in the sense of Ruess. Applications to spaces of Baire functions and $C_k$-spaces are given.

On $κ$-Frechet-Urysohn topological groups

We characterize $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn topological groups. Using this characterization we show that: (1) a hemicompact topological group is $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn iff it is locally compact, and (2) if $F$ is a closed metrizable subspace of a topological vector space (tvs) $E$ such that the quotient $E/F$ is a $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn space, then also $E$ is a $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn space. Consequently, the product of a $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn tvs and a metrizable tvs is a $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn space. Under Martin's Axiom, we construct a countable Boolean $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn group which is not a $k_{\mathbb R}$-space.

$\mathbb R^{ω_1}$-Factorizable Spaces and Groups

A topological space $X$ is $\mathbb R^{ω_1}$-factorizable if any continuous function $f\colon X\to \mathbb R^{ω_1}$ factors through a continuous function from $X$ to a second-countable space. It is shown that a Tychonoff space $X$ is $\mathbb R^{ω_1}$-factorizable if and only if $X\times D(ω_1)$, where $D(ω_1)$ is a discrete space of cardinality $ω_1$, is $z$-embedded in the product $βX\times βD(ω_1)$ of the Stone--Cech compactifications. It is also proved that $\mathbb R^{ω_1}$-factorizability is hereditary and countably multiplicative, that any $\mathbb R^{ω_1}$-factorizable space is hereditarily Lindelöf and hereditarily separable, and that the existence of nonmetrizable $\mathbb R^{ω_1}$-factorizable topological spaces and groups is independent of ZFC: under CH, all $\mathbb R^{ω_1}$-factorizable spaces are second-countable, while under MA + $\lnot$CH, the countable Fréchet--Urysohn fan is $\mathbb R^{ω_1}$-factorizable.

Completeness and reflexivity type properties of $B_1(X)$

For a Tychonoff space $X$, $B_1(X)$ denotes the space of all Baire-one functions on $X$ endowed with the pointwise topology. We prove that the following assertions are equivalent: (1) $B_1(X)$ is a (semi-)Montel space, (2) $B_1(X)$ is a (semi-)reflexive space, (3) $B_1(X)$ is a (quasi-)complete space, (4) $B_1(X)=\mathbb{R}^X$, (5) $X$ is a $Q_f$-space. It is proved that $B_1(X)$ is sequentially complete iff $B_1(X)$ is locally complete iff $X$ is a $CZ$-space. In the case when $K$ is a compact space, we show that $B_1(K)$ is locally complete iff $K$ is scattered. We thoroughly study the case when $X$ is a separable metrizable space. Numerous distinguished examples are given.

New classes of compact-type spaces

Being motivated by the notions of $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn spaces and $k'$-spaces introduced by Arhangel'skii, the notion of sequential spaces and the study of Ascoli spaces, we introduce three new classes of compact-type spaces. They are defined by the possibility to attain each or some of boundary points $x$ of an open set $U$ by a sequence in $U$ converging to $x$ or by a relatively compact subset $A\subseteq U$ such that $x\in \overline{A}$. Relationships of the introduced classes with the classical classes (as, for example, the classes of $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn spaces, (sequentially) Ascoli spaces, $k_{\mathbb R}$-spaces, $s_{\mathbb R}$-spaces etc.) are given. We characterize these new classes of spaces and study them with respect to taking products, subspaces and quotients. In particular, we give new characterizations of $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn spaces and show that each feathered topological group is $κ$-Fréchet--Urysohn. We describe locally compact abelian groups which endowed with the Bohr topology belong to one of the aforementioned classes. Numerous examples are given.

$κ$-spaces

We say that a Tychonoff space $X$ is a $κ$-space if it is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of $C_p(Y)$ for some locally compact space $Y$. The class of $κ$-spaces is strictly between the class of Dieudonné complete spaces and the class of $μ$-spaces. We show that the class of $κ$-spaces has nice stability properties, that allows us to define the $κ$-completion $κX$ of $X$ as the smallest $κ$-space in the Stone--Čech compactification $βX$ of $X$ containing $X$. For a point $z\inβX$, we show that (1) if $z\in\upsilon X$, then the Dirac measure $δ_z$ at $z$ is bounded on each compact subset of $C_p(X)$, (2) $z\in κX$ iff $δ_z$ is continuous on each compact subset of $C_p(X)$ iff $δ_z$ is continuous on each compact subset of $C_p^b(X)$, (3) $z\in\upsilon X$ iff $δ_z$ is bounded on each compact subset of $C_p^b(X)$. It is proved that $κX$ is the largest subspace $Y$ of $βX$ containing $X$ for which $C_p(Y)$ and $C_p(X)$ have the same compact subsets, this result essentially generalizes a known result of R.~Haydon.

Functions on products $X \times Y$ with applications to Ascoli spaces, $k_{\mathbb{R}}$-spaces and $s_{\mathbb{R}}$-spaces

We prove that a Tychonoff space $X$ is (sequentially) Ascoli iff for every compact space $K$ (resp., for a convergent sequence $\mathbf{s}$), each separately continuous $k$-continuous function $Φ:X\times K\to \mathbb{R}$ is continuous. We apply these characterizations to show that an open subspace of a (sequentially) Ascoli space is (sequentially) Ascoli, and that the $μ$-completion and the Dieudonné completion of a (sequentially) Ascoli space are (sequentially) Ascoli. We give also cover-type characterizations of Ascoli spaces and suggest an easy method of construction of pseudocompact Ascoli spaces which are not $k_\mathbb{R}$-spaces and show that each space $X$ can be closely embedded into such a space. Using a different method we prove Hušek's theorem: a Tychonoff space $Y$ is a locally pseudocompact $k_\mathbb{R}$-space iff $X\times Y$ is a $k_\mathbb{R}$-space for each $k_\mathbb{R}$-space $X$. It is proved that $X$ is an $s_\mathbb{R}$-space iff for every locally compact sequential space $K$, each $s$-continuous function $f:X\times K\to\mathbb{R}$ is continuous.

Weird $\mathbb R$-Factorizable Groups

The problem of the existence of non-pseudo-$\aleph_1$-compact $\mathbb R$-factorizable groups is studied. It is proved that any such group is submetrizable and has weight larger than $ω_1$. Closely related results concerning the $\mathbb R$-factorizability of products of topological groups and spaces are also obtained (a product $X\times Y$ of topological spaces is said to be $\mathbb R$-factorizable if any continuous function $X\times Y\to \mathbb R$ factors through a product of maps from $X$ and $Y$ to second-countable spaces). In particular, it is proved that the square $G\times G$ of a topological groups $G$ is $\mathbb R$-factorizable as a group if and only if it is $\mathbb R$-factorizable as a product of spaces, in which case $G$ is pseudo-$\aleph_1$-compact. It is also proved that if the product of a space $X$ and an uncountable discrete space is $\mathbb R$-factorizable, then $X^ω$ is heredirarily separable and heredirarily Lindelöf.

On $k_\mathbb{R}$-spaces and $s_\mathbb{R}$-spaces

We give new characterizations of spaces $X$ which are $k_\mathbb{R}$-spaces or $s_\mathbb{R}$-spaces. Applying the obtained results we provide some sufficient and necessary conditions on $X$ for which $C_p(X)$ is a $k_\mathbb{R}$-space or an $s_\mathbb{R}$-space. It is proved that $C_p(X)$ is a $k_\mathbb{R}$-space for any space $X$ with one non-isolated point; if, in addition, $|X|$ is not sequential, then $C_p(X)$ is even an $s_\mathbb{R}$-space. Under $(CH)$, it is shown that there exists a separable metrizable space $X$ such that $C_p(X)$ is an Ascoli space but not a $k_\mathbb{R}$-space.

Regular rigid Korovin orbits

An example of an infinite regular feebly compact quasitopological group is presented such that all continuous real-valued functions on the group are constant. The example is based on the use of Korovin orbits in $X^G$, where $X$ is a special regular countably compact space constructed by S.Bardyla and L.Zdomskyy and $G$ is an abstract Abelian group of an appropriate cardinality. Also, we study the interplay between the separation properties of the space $X$ and Korovin orbits in $X^G$. We show in particular that if $X$ contains two nonempty disjoint open subsets, then every Korovin orbit in $X^G$ is Hausdorff.

On identities in connected topological groups

In 1957, Nemytskii proved the following fact: if in a locally compact or in an Abelian connected group there is a neighborhood of the identity in which some identity holds, then it holds in the entire group. The following question was also posed there: Let G be a connected topological group. In some neighborhood of the identity of the group G the identity $x^3=1$ holds. Is it true that then the identity $x^3=1$ holds in the entire group $G$? The same question is posed for the identity $gx^2 = x^2g$, where $g$ is a fixed element of the group. Platonov formulated the following generalized formulation of the Mytselsky problem: for a topological connected group, is it true that if the identity holds in a neighborhood of the identity, then the identity holds everywhere? In this paper, a negative answer to Platonov's question is given, the following theorem is proven: if $n > 10^{10}$ is odd, then there exists a connected topological group in which the identity $x^n=1$ holds in some neighborhood of unity, but not in the entire group.

Classes of Baire spaces defined by semi-neighborhoods of the diagonal

With the help of semi-neighborhoods of the diagonal, classes of Baire spaces are defined: $Δ$, $Δ_h$ and $Δ_s$ Baire spaces. These classes of spaces are studied with the help of topological games. They are useful in studying continuity in groups: paratopological $Δ$-Baire groups, quasi-topological $Δ_h$-Baire groups, and semitopological $Δ_s$-Baire groups are topological groups.

Almost paratopological groups

A class of almost paratopological groups is introduced, which (1) contains paratopological groups and Hausdorff quasitopological groups; (2) is closed under products; (3) subgroups. Almost paratopological $T_1$ groups $G$ are characterized by the fact that $\{(x,y)\in G^2: xy=e\}$ is closed in $G^2$. A compact almost paratopological group is topological. A regular $Σ$-space with a countable extend and a separately continuous Mal'tsev operation is $ω$-cellular (and ccc). A $σ$-compact regular almost paratopological group is ccc. In particular, a $σ$-compact regular quasitopological group is ccc.

Metrizability of CHART groups

For compact Hausdorff admissible right topological (CHART) group $G$, we prove $w(G)=πχ(G)$. This equality is well known for compact topological groups. This implies the criteria for the metrizability of CHART groups: if $G$ is first-countable (2013, Moors, Namioka) or $G$ is Fréchet (2013, Glasner, Megrelishvili), or $G$ has countable $π$-character (2022, Reznichenko) then $G$ is metrizable. Under the continuum hypothesis (CH) assumption, a sequentially compact CHART group is metrizable. Namioka's theorem that metrizable CHART groups are topological groups extends to CHART groups with small weight.

Algebraic structures on the Cantor set

Below, by space we mean a separable metrizable zero-dimensional space. It is studied when the space can be embedded in a Cantor set while maintaining the algebraic structure. Main results of the work: every space is an open retract of a Boolean precompact group; every strongly homogeneous space is rectifiable. In this case, the space can be embedded in the Cantor set with the preservation of the algebraic structure. An example of a strongly homogeneous space is constructed which do not admit the structure of a right topological group.
