We obtain a topological zero-one law for sets with the Baire property which are invariant under a semigroup of open continuous maps acting on a topological space.

We are concerned with the category of topological spaces and continuous maps. A surjection f: X → Y in this category is called a quotient map if G is open in Y whenever f−1G is open in X. Our purpose is to answer the following three questions:Question 1. For which continuous surjections f: X → Y is every pullback of f a quotient map?Question 2. For which continuous surjections f: X → Y is f × lz: X × Z → Y × Z a quotient map for every topological space Z? (These include all those f answering to Question 1, since f × lz is the pullback of f by the projection map Y ×Z → Y.)Question 3. For which topological spaces Z is f × 1Z: X × Z → Y × Z a qiptoent map for every quotient map f?

In topology, the representable K-theory of a topological space X is defined by the formulas RK0(X) = [X,Z x BU] and RKl(X) = [X, U], where square brackets denote sets of homotopy classes of continuous maps, is the infinite unitary group, and BU is a classifying space for U. (Note that ZxBU is homotopy equivalent to the space of Fredholm operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space.) These sets of homotopy classes are made into abelian groups by using the H-group structures on Z x BU and U. In this paper, we give analogous formulas for the representable K-theory for α-C*-algebras defined in [20].

In this paper pgrw-locally closed set, pgrw-locally closed*-set and pgrw-locally closed**-set are introduced. A subset A of a topological space (X,t) is called pgrw-locally closed (pgrw-lc) if A=GÇF where G is a pgrw-open set and F is a pgrw-closed set in (X,t). A subset A of a topological space (X,t) is a pgrw-lc* set if there exist a pgrw-open set G and a closed set F in X such that A= GÇF. A subset A of a topological space (X,t) is a pgrw-lc**-set if there exists an open set G and a pgrw-closed set F such that A=GÇF. The results regarding pgrw-locally closed sets, pgrw-locally closed* sets, pgrw-locally closed** sets, pgrw-lc-continuous maps and pgrw-lc-irresolute maps and some of the properties of these sets and their relation with other lc-sets are established.

Let be any topological space. In this paper, we show that there is a unique regular topology on X which is coarser than such that if Y is any regular space, the continuous maps are the same for and . We shall call the regular topology associated with and the regular space associated with .

A category space is a measure space which is also a topological space, the measure and the topology being related by ‘a set is measurable iff it has the Baire property’ and ‘a set is null iff it is nowhere dense’ [4]. We considered some category spaces in [3]; now we show that if a null set is deleted from the space, then the topology can be taken to be completely regular. The essential part of the construction consists of obtaining a suitable refinement of the original sequential covering class and using the consequent strong upper density function to define the required topology. Then the complete regularity follows much as in [1].

This chapter discusses some results about homotopy groups and CW complexes. Throughout this book, one needs to assume a certain amount of algebraic topology. A CW complex is a topological space built up from a discrete set of points by successively attaching cells one dimension at a time. The name CW complex refers to the two properties satisfied by a CW complex: closure-finiteness and weak topology. With continuous maps as morphisms, the CW complexes form a category. It turns out that this is the most appropriate category in which to do homotopy theory. The chapter also looks at fiber bundles.

Let X be a topological space, a finite covering of X (the words ‘covering’ and ‘cover’ are used interchangeably). We say that has the almost fixed point property for a class of continuous maps f : X → X if for all there is an x ∈ X and such that x ∈ U and f(x) ∈ U, or, equivalently, if there is a such that .

AbstractWe give sufficient conditions for the following problem: given a topological space X, ametric space Y, a subspace Z of Y, and a continuous map f from X to Y, is it possible, by applying to f an arbitrarily small perturbation, to ensure that f(X) does not meet Z? We also give a relative variant: if f(X') does not meet Z for a certain subset X'⊂ X, then we may keep f unchanged on X'. We also develop a variant for continuous sections of fibrations and discuss some applications to matrix perturbation theory.

The paper concerns the topologies introduced in the family of sets having the Baire property in a topological space (X, ?) and in the family generated by the sets having the Baire property and given a proper ?-ideal containing ? -meager sets. The regularity property of such topologies is investigated.

The aim of this paper is to answer the following question. For a spatial groupoid G, i.e. for a groupoid in the category Sp of spaces (in the sense of [20]) in a topos , and continuous maps, the topos BG, of étale G-spaces, is called ‘the classifying topos of G’ by Moerdijk[22]. This terminology is suggested by the case of G a discrete group (in Sets), as then BG, the topos of G-sets, classifies principal G-bundles. This means that, for each topological space X, there is a bijection between isomorphism classes of principal G-bundles over X and isomorphism classes of geometric morphisms from Sh(X) to BG. The question is: what does BG classify, in terms of G, in the general case of a spatial groupoid G in a topos ?
