Extension dimension and quasi-finite CW-complexes

Abstract

We extend the definition of quasi-finite complexes by considering not necessarily countable complexes. We provide a characterization of quasi-finite complexes in terms of L-invertible maps and dimensional properties of compactifications. Several results related to the class of quasi-finite complexes are established, such as completion of metrizable spaces, existence of universal spaces and a version of the factorization theorem. Further, we extend the definition of UV(L)-spaces on non-compact case and show that some properties of UV(n)-spaces and UV(n)-maps remain valid, respectively, for UV(L)-spaces and UV(L)-maps.

Three Problems on Separable Quotients of Precompact Abelian Groups

We address three problems on separable quotients of topological groups posed by Leiderman, Morris, and Tkachenko in \cite{LMT} published on Israel Journal of Mathematics. First, we construct in ZFC a connected Baire Pontryagin-reflexive dense subgroup of $\T^{\cc}$ whose countable subgroups are $h$-embedded and whose uncountable subgroups are dense. Its underlying abstract group is the circle group, and all its compact subsets are finite. Second, we construct a zero-dimensional Baire Pontryagin-reflexive example with the same subgroup properties whose underlying group is free abelian of rank $\cc$. Both examples have no nontrivial separable Hausdorff quotient. Third, for the group constructed in their Theorem~3.5, we determine every closed subgroup of every finite power up to an integral change of coordinates and prove that every countable subgroup of every Hausdorff quotient of a finite power is $h$-embedded and closed. The same conclusions hold for our free Baire reflexive example. These results answer Problem~1.25 negatively, Problem~3.12 affirmatively and realize all three regularity properties in Problem~3.14 simultaneously in \cite{LMT}.

Topological Vector Group Topologies Between the Minimal Topology and the Usual Topology on the Real Line

For every positive sequence that tends to zero faster than every fixed exponential, we construct a Hausdorff topological Vector Group topology on the additive group of real numbers. It lies strictly between the minimal Hausdorff topological Vector Group topology and the usual topology. The construction is illustrated by factorial powers, quadratic exponential decay, and prime radicals divided by a quadratic exponential. We also record a finite scalar covering criterion for comparing two such topologies.

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.
