Inducing Fixed Points in the Stone-čech Compactification
If f is an autohomeomorphism of some space X, then βf denotes its Stone-Čech extension to βX. For each n ≤ ω, we give an example of a first countable, strongly zerodimensional, subparacompact X and a map f such that every point of X has an orbit of size n under f and βf has a fixed point. We give an example of a normal, zero-dimensional X such that f is fixed-point-free but βf is not. We note t...
متن کاملAlgebra in the Stone - Čech Compactification and its Applications to Ramsey Theory
Let me begin by expressing my sincere gratitude to the Japanese Association of Mathematical Sciences for inviting me to present this lecture and for giving me the JAMS International Prize for 2003 . I am deeply honored. This lecture is not a survey, but simply a discussion of some topics that I find interesting. For the most recent surveys of this subject area in which I have participated see [...
متن کاملThe Stone-Čech compactification of Tychonoff spaces
A topological space X is said to be completely regular if whenever F is a nonempty closed set and x ∈ X \F , there is a continuous function f : X → [0, 1] such that f(x) = 0 and f(F ) = {1}. A completely regular space need not be Hausdorff. For example, ifX is any set with more than one point, then the trivial topology, in which the only closed sets are ∅ and X, is vacuously completely regular,...
متن کاملStrong shape of the Stone-Čech compactification
J. Keesling has shown that for connected spaces X the natural inclusion e : X → βX of X in its Stone-Čech compactification is a shape equivalence if and only if X is pseudocompact. This paper establishes the analogous result for strong shape. Moreover, pseudocompact spaces are characterized as spaces which admit compact resolutions, which improves a result of I. Lončar.
متن کاملOn the existence of Stone-Cech compactification
Introduction. In 1937 E. Čech and M.H. Stone independently introduced the maximal compactification of a completely regular topological space, thereafter called Stone-Čech compactification [8, 18]. In the introduction of [8] the non-constructive character of this result is so described: “it must be emphasized that β(S) [the Stone-Čech compactification of S] may be defined only formally (not cons...
