Compact coverings for Baire locally convex spaces

Locally Compact, Ω1-compact Spaces

This paper is centered on an extremely general problem: Problem. Is it consistent (perhaps modulo large cardinals) that a locally compact space X must be the union of countably many ω-bounded subspaces if every closed discrete subspace of X is countable [in other words, if X is ω1-compact]? A space is ω-bounded if every countable subset has compact closure. This is a strengthening of countable ...

Locally Compact Path Spaces

It is shown that the space X [0,1], of continuous maps [0, 1] → X with the compact-open topology, is not locally compact for any space X having a nonconstant path of closed points. For a T1-space X, it follows that X [0,1] is locally compact if and only if X is locally compact and totally path-disconnected. AMS Classification: 54C35, 54E45, 55P35, 18B30, 18D15

Asymmetric locally convex spaces

The aim of the present paper is to introduce the asymmetric locally convex spaces and to prove some basic properties. Among these I do mention the analogs of the EidelheitTuckey separation theorems, of the Alaoglu-Bourbaki theorem on the weak compactness of the polar of a neighborhood of 0, and a Krein-Milman-type theorem. These results extend those obtained by Garcı́a-Raffi et al. (2003) and Co...

One-point extensions of locally compact paracompact spaces

A space $Y$ is called an {em extension} of a space $X$, if $Y$ contains $X$ as a dense subspace. Two extensions of $X$ are said to be {em equivalent}, if there is a homeomorphism between them which fixes $X$ point-wise. For two (equivalence classes of) extensions $Y$ and $Y'$ of $X$ let $Yleq Y'$, if there is a continuous function of $Y'$ into $Y$ which fixes $X$ point-wise. An extension $Y$ ...
