We generalise the Riesz representation theorems for positive linear functionals on $$\text {C}_{\text {c}}(X)$$ and {0}}(X)$$ , where X is a locally compact Hausdorff space, to operators from these spaces into partially ordered vector space E. The representing measures are defined Borel $$\sigma $$ -algebra of take their values in extended cone corresponding integrals order integrals. give expl...

In this case, a set C ∈ C may be called a cell in X. A compact Hausdorff space with a cellular structure is a cellular space. For example, the usual construction of the Cantor set leads to a natural cellular structure, where the cells are the parts of the Cantor set in the closed intervals generated in the construction. Of course, a Hausdorff topological space with a base for its topology consi...

The compact Hausdorff space X has the CSWP iff every subalgebra of C(X,C) which separates points and contains the constant functions is dense in C(X,C). Results of W. Rudin (1956), and Hoffman and Singer (1960), show that all scattered X have the CSWP and many non-scattered X fail the CSWP, but it was left open whether having the CSWP is just equivalent to being scattered. Here, we prove some g...

Every first countable pseudocompact Tychonoff space X has the property that every pseudocompact subspace of X is a closed subset of X (denoted herein by “FCC”). We study the property FCC and several closely related ones, and focus on the behavior of extension and other spaces which have one or more of these properties. Characterization, embedding and product theorems are obtained, and some exam...

A continuous open finite-to-one surjection f preserves Cantor rank. If the domain of f is a Hausdorff compact space, Cantor degree variations are bounded by the maximal size of the finite fibres. If the fibres are infinite, we show inequalities involving the maximal and minimal rank of the fibres. A closed preorder on a denumerable Hausdorff compact space is the intersection of clopen preoders....

I would like to thank the organizers of the UNISA Topology Workshop, Koena Rufus Nailana and Sergio Salbany, for doing an excellent job acquiring funding, making arrangements, and especially for assembling an enthusiastic group of participants. An ordered topological space (X, τ,≤) is a set X with a topology τ and a partial order ≤. We usually assume some forms of compatibility between the topo...

A normed space $mathfrak{X}$ is said to have the fixed point property, if for each nonexpansive mapping $T : E longrightarrow E $ on a nonempty bounded closed convex subset $ E $ of $ mathfrak{X} $ has a fixed point. In this paper, we first show that if $ X $ is a locally compact Hausdorff space then the following are equivalent: (i) $X$ is infinite set, (ii) $C_0(X)$ is infinite dimensional, (...

Modifying the Hausdorff-Buseman metric, we obtain a compatible metric with the Fell-Matheron topology on the space of closed subsets of a locally compact Hausdorff second countable space. We also give an alternative expression of this metric, and two more compatible metrics, a metric of summation form and a modified Rockafellar-Wets metric. Through the study of the relation between the original...

A Bing space is a compact Hausdorff space whose every component is a hereditarily indecomposable continuum. We investigate spaces which are quotients of a Bing space by means of a map which is injective on components. We show that the class of such spaces does not include every compact space, but does properly include the class of compact metric spaces. Our entire development is based on Krasin...
