Abstract

In this paper we study the selection principle of closed discrete selection, first researched by Tkachuk in [13] and strengthened by Clontz, Holshouser in [3], in set-open topologies on the space of continuous real-valued functions. Adapting the techniques involving point-picking games on \(X\) and \(C_p(X)\), the current authors showed similar equivalences in [1] involving the compact subsets of \(X\) and \(C_k(X)\). By pursuing a bitopological setting, we have touched upon a unifying framework which involves three basic techniques: general game duality via reflections (Clontz), general game equivalence via topological connections, and strengthening of strategies (Pawlikowski and Tkachuk). Moreover, we develop a framework which identifies topological notions to match with generalized versions of the point-open game.

Sobriety of Scott topologies under countability conditions

In this paper, we focus on the sobriety of the Scott topology in countable case. Specifically, we show that: (1) every meet-continuous core-compact countable dcpo is sober with respect to the Scott topology; (2)every countable locally compact dcpo is sober endowed with the Scott topology; (3) the lattice of all open sets for the rational numbers space Q equipped with the Scott topology is not sober.

Exponentiable Objects and Function spaces in Lowen Fuzzy Topological Spaces

We study exponentiable objects and function spaces in the category of stratified Lowen fuzzy topological spaces over \(\I=[0,1]\). Using the Lowen fuzzy Sierpiński object \(\Sier\), which identifies \(τ_X\) with \(C(X,\Sier)\), we explicitly determine the largest splitting topology on this mapping set. Its open weights \(Φ:τ_X\to\I\) are precisely those satisfying Scott continuity and a finite-tier compatibility condition induced by finite powers of \(\Sier\). This yields an intrinsic characterization: \(X\) is exponentiable if and only if every \(μ\inτ_X\) satisfies \[ μ=\bigvee_{λ\triangleleftΦ} (\const{Φ(μ)}\wedgeλ), \qquad λ\triangleleftΦ \Longleftrightarrow \const{Φ(ν)}\wedgeλ\leqν \quad(ν\inτ_X). \] When this condition holds, \(Y^X\) has underlying set \(C(X,Y)\), with topology generated by \([Φ,v](f)=Φ(v\circ f)\). We also obtain a dual closed-set formulation and three applications. Exponentiability implies that \(τ_X\) is a continuous lattice, although the converse fails. Moreover, a classical space \(X\) is exponentiable exactly when its induced fuzzy space \(ωX\) is exponentiable in the entire stratified Lowen category. Finally, Lowen compact, strongly fuzzy compact, and \(N\)-compact Hausdorff spaces are exponentiable.

Super calibers in topological spaces and topological hyperspaces

We study the notion of a super caliber of a topological space, which is closely related to the classical notion of caliber and has appeared in the literature under several different names. We collect and unify several known results and establish new results concerning the collections of super calibers of topological spaces and their hyperspaces. In particular, we investigate the relationship between the super calibers of a space $X$ and those of hyperspaces $\mathcal{H}(X)$ lying between $\mathrm{CL}(X)$ and $\mathcal{F}(X)$. For infinite metrizable spaces, we characterize several cases in which $\mathsf{SC}(X)$ and $\mathsf{SC}(\mathrm{CL}(X))$ differ and establish an independence result over \textsf{ZFC}; see Theorem~5.12.
