A topological space is E0 (resp. E1) provided every point is the countable intersection of neighborhoods (resp. closed neighborhoods). For i = 0 and i = 1, characterizations of minimal Ei. spaces (Ei. spaces with no strictly coarser Ei. topology) and Ei-closed spaces (Ei. spaces which are closed in every Ei. space containing them) are given; for example, the properties of minimal Ei. and minimal first countable Ti+1 are shown to be equivalent. Minimal E0 spaces are characterized as countable spaces with the cofinite topology, and minimal E1 spaces are characterized as E1-closed and semiregular spaces. E0-closed spaces are shown to be precisely the finite discrete spaces.

AbstractIn previous papers, Barr and Raphael investigated the situation of a topological space Y and a subspace X such that the induced map C(Y ) → C(X) is an epimorphism in the category ᘓℛ of commutative rings (with units). We call such an embedding a ᘓℛ-epic embedding and we say that X is absolute ᘓℛ-epic if every embedding of X is ᘓℛ-epic. We continue this investigation. Our most notable result shows that a Lindelöf space X is absolute ᘓℛ-epic if a countable intersection of βX-neighbourhoods of X is a βX-neighbourhood of X. This condition is stable under countable sums, the formation of closed subspaces, cozero-subspaces, and being the domain or codomain of a perfect map. A strengthening of the Lindelöf property leads to a new class with the same closure properties that is also closed under finite products. Moreover, all σ-compact spaces and all Lindelöf P-spaces satisfy this stronger condition. We get some results in the non-Lindelöf case that are sufficient to show that the Dieudonné plank and some closely related spaces are absolute ᘓℛ-epic.

St Paul’s Cathedral Precinct in Early Modern Literature and Culture: Spatial Practices is a study of London’s cathedral, its immediate surroundings, and its everyday users in early modern literary and historical documents and images, with a special emphasis on the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Hentschell discusses representations of several of the seemingly discrete spaces of the precinct to reveal how these spaces overlap with and inform one another spatially. She argues that specific locations—including the Paul’s nave (also known as Paul’s Walk), Paul’s Cross pulpit, the bookshops of Paul’s Churchyard, the College of the Minor Canons, Paul’s School, the performance space for the Children of Paul’s, and the fabric of the cathedral itself—should be seen as mutually constitutive and in a dynamic, ever-evolving state. To support this argument, she attends closely to the varied uses of the precinct, including the embodied spatial practices of early modern Londoners and visitors, who moved through the precinct, paused to visit its sacred and secular spaces, and/or resided there. This includes the walkers in the nave, sermon-goers, those who shopped for books, the residents of the precinct, the choristers—who were also schoolboys and actors—and those who were devoted to church repairs and renovations. By attending to the interactions between place and people and to the multiple stories these interactions tell—Hentschell attempts to animate St Paul’s and deepen our understanding of the cathedral and precinct in the early modern period.

The first law of geography holds that everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things, where distance refers to topographical space. If a first law of network science exists, it would similarly hold that everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things, but where distance refers to topological space. Frequently these two laws collide, together holding that everything is related to everything else, but topographically and topologically near things are more related than topographically and topologically distant things. The focus of the spatial study of social networks lies in exploring a series of questions embedded in this combined law of geography and networks. This chapter explores the questions that have been asked and the answers that have been offered at the intersection of geography and networks.

Topological Construction

In [2], Juhasz and Shelah use a forcing argument to show that it is consistent with GCH that there is a 0-dimensional T2 topological space X of cardinality ℵ3 such that every partition of the triples of X into countably many pieces has a nondiscrete (in the topology) homogeneous set. In this paper we will show how to construct such a space using a simplified (ω2, 1)-morass with certain additional structure added to it. The additional structure will be a slight strengthening of a built-in ◊ sequence, analogous to the strengthening of ordinary ◊k to ◊S for a stationary set S ⊆ k.Suppose 〈〈θα∣ ∝ ≤ ω2〉, 〈∝β∣α < β ≤ ω2〉〉 is a neat simplified (ω2, 1)-morass (see [3]). Let ℒ be a language with countably many symbols of all types, and suppose that for each α < ω2, α is an ℒ-structure with universe θα. The sequence 〈α∣α < ω2 is called a built-in ◊ sequence for the morass if for every ℒ-structure with universe ω3 there is some α < ω2 and some f ∈αω2 such that f(α) ≺ , where f(α) is the ℒ-structure isomorphic to α under the isomorphism f. We can strengthen this slightly by assuming that α is only defined for α ∈ S, for some stationary set S ⊆ ω2. We will then say that is a built-in ◊ sequence on levels in S if for every ℒ-structure with universe ω3 there is some α ∈ S and some f ∈ αω2 such that f(α) ≺ .

Abstract In this short note, we prove that the stochastic order of Radon probability measures on any ordered topological space is antisymmetric. This has been known before in various special cases. We give a simple and elementary proof of the general result.

Soft Topological Space

In this paper, we first define soft u-open sets and soft s-open as two new classes of soft sets on soft bitopological spaces. We show that the class of soft p-open sets lies strictly between these classes, and we give several sufficient conditions for the equivalence between soft p-open sets and each of the soft u-open sets and soft s-open sets, respectively. In addition to these, we introduce the soft u-ω-open, soft p-ω-open, and soft s-ω-open sets as three new classes of soft sets in soft bitopological spaces, which contain soft u-open sets, soft p-open sets, and soft s-open sets, respectively. Via soft u-open sets, we define two notions of Lindelöfeness in SBTSs. We discuss the relationship between these two notions, and we characterize them via other types of soft sets. We define several types of soft local countability in soft bitopological spaces. We discuss relationships between them, and via some of them, we give two results related to the discrete soft topological space. According to our new concepts, the study deals with the correspondence between soft bitopological spaces and their generated bitopological spaces.
