We study the behavior of certain spaces and their compactificability classes at infinity. Among other results we show that every noncompact, locally compact, second countable Hausdorff spaceXsuch that each neighborhood of infinity (in the Alexandroff compactification) is uncountable, has(X)=(ℝ). We also prove some criteria for (non-) comparability of the studied classes of mutual compactificability.

Many commutative semisimple Banach algebras B including B = C (X), X compact, and B = L1 (G), G locally compact, have the property that every homomorphism from B into C1[0, 1] is compact. In this paper we consider this property for uniform algebras. Several examples of homomorphisms from somewhat complicated algebras of analytic functions to C1[0, 1] are shown to be compact. This, together with the fact that every homomorphism from the disc algebra and from the algebra H∞ (∆), ∆ = unit disc, to C1[0, 1] is compact, led to the conjecture that perhaps every homomorphism from a uniform algebra into C1[0, 1] is compact. The main result to which we devote the second half of this paper, is to construct a compact Hausdorff space X, a uniformly closed subalgebra [Formula: see text] of C (X), and an arc ϕ: [0, 1] → X such that the transformation T defined by Tf = f ◦ ϕ is a (bounded) homomorphism of [Formula: see text] into C1[0, 1] which is not compact.

Regular Closed

Let X be a metric space. Assume either that X is locally compact or that X has no more than countably many isolated points. It is proved that if F is a nowhere dense subset of X, then it is regularly nowhere dense (in the sense of Katětov) and hence is contained in the topological boundary of some regular-closed subset of X. This result is used to obtain new properties of the remote points of the Stone-Čech compactification of a metric space without isolated points.Let βX denote the Stone-Čech compactification of the completely regular Hausdorff space X. Fine and Gillman [3] define a point p of βX to be remote if p is not in the βX-closure of a discrete subset of X.

Locally Compact Hausdorff Space

AbstractUsing ideas of McShane ([4, Example 3]), a detailed development of the Riemann integral in a locally compact Hausdorff space X was presented in [1]. There the Riemann integral is derived from a finitely additive volume v defined on a suitable semiring of subsets of X. Vis-à-vis the Riesz representation theorem ([8, Theorem 2.141), the integral generates a Riesz measure v in X, whose relationship to the volume v was carefully investigated in [1, Section 7].In the present paper, we use the same setting as in [1] but produce the measure directly without introducing the Riemann integral. Specifically, we define an outer measure by means of gages and introduce a very intuitive concept of gage measurability that is different from the usual Carathéodory définition. We prove that if the outer measure is σ-finite, the resulting measure space is identical to that defined by means of the Carathéodory technique, and consequently to that of [1, Section 7]. If the outer measure is not σ-finite, we investigate the gage measurability of Carathéodory measurable sets that are σ-finite. Somewhat surprisingly, it turns out that this depends on the axioms of set theory.

The Relationship

AbstractLet G be a locally compact second countable group, let X be a locally compact second countable Hausdorff space, and view C(X, T) as a trivial G-module. For G countable discrete abelian, we construct an isomorphism between the Moore cohomology group Hn(G, C(X, T)) and the direct sum Ext(Hn-1(G), Ȟl(βX, Ζ)) ⊕ C(X, Hn(G, T)); here Ȟ1 (βX, Ζ) denotes the first Čech cohomology group of the Stone-Čech compactification of X, βX, with integer coefficients. For more general locally compact second countable groups G, we discuss the relationship between the Moore group H2(G, C(X, T)), the set of exterior equivalence classes of element-wise inner actions of G on the stable continuous trace C*-algebra C0(X) ⊗ 𝒦, and the equivariant Brauer group BrG(X) of Crocker, Kumjian, Raeburn, and Williams. For countable discrete abelian G acting trivially on X, we construct an isomorphism is the group of equivalence classes of principal Ĝ bundles over X first considered by Raeburn and Williams.

Compact Subsets

It is well known (see [3](1)) that no continuum (i.e. compact, connected, Hausdorff space) can be written as a countable disjoint union of its (nonvoid) closed subsets. This result can be generalized in two ways into the setting of locally compact, connected, Hausdorff spaces. Using the one point compactification of a locally compact, connected, Hausdorff space X one can easily show that X cannot be written as a countable disjoint union of compact subsets. If one makes the further assumption that X is locally connected, then one can show that X cannot be written as a countable disjoint union of closed subsets.(2)

In the potential theory with respect to a non-symmetric function-kernel, the following theorem is obtained by M. Kishi ([3]).Let X be a locally compact Hausdorff space and G be a lower semi-continuous function-kernel on X. Assume that G(x, x)>0 for any x in X and that G and the adjoint kernel Ğ of G satisfy “the continuity principle”.

Locally Compact Hausdorff Space

The countability index, C(S), of a semigroup S is the smallest integer n, if it exists, such that every countable subset of S is contained in a subsemigroup with n generators. If no such integer exists, define C(S) = ∞. The density index, D(S), of a topological semigroup S is the smallest integer n, if it exists, such that S contains a dense subsemigroup with n generators. If no such integer exists, define D(S) = ∞. S(X) is the topological semigroup of all continuous selfmaps of the locally compact Hausdorff space X where S(X) is given the compact-open topology. Various results are obtained about C(S(X)) and D(S(X)). For example, if X consists of a finite number (< 1) of components, each of which is a compact N-dimensional subspace of Euclidean Nspace and has the internal extension property and X is not the two point discrete space. Then C(S(X)) exceeds two but is finite. There are additional results for C(S(X)) and similar results for D(S(X)).

The fact that simple links in locally compact connected metric spaces are nondegenerate was probably first established by C. Kuratowski and G. T. Whyburn in [2], where it is proved for Peano continua. J. L. Kelley in [3] established it for arbitrary metric continua, and A. D. Wallace extended the theorem to Hausdorff continua in [4]. In [1], B. Lehman proved this theorem for locally compact, locally connected Hausdorff spaces. We will show that the locally connected property is not necessary.A continuum is a compact connected Hausdorff space. For any two points a and b of a connected space M, E(a, b) denotes the set of all points of M which separate a from b in M. The interval ab of M is the set E(a, b) ∪ {a, b}.

Let X be a locally compact Hausdorff topological space. A compactification of X is a compact Hausdorff space which contains X as a dense subspace. Two compactifications αX and γX of X are equivalent if there is a homeomorphism from αX onto γX that fixes X pointwise. We shall identify equivalent compactifications of a given space. If is a family of compactifications of X, we can partially order by saying that αX ≦ γX if there is a continuous map from γX onto αX that fixes X pointwise.

By constructing the projective lift of a dp-epimorphism, we find a covariant functor E from the category Cd of regular Hausdorff spaces and continuous dp-epimorphisms to its coreflective subcategory εd consisting of projective objects of Cd We use E to show that E(X/G) is homeomorphic to EX/G whenever G is a properly discontinuous group of homeomorphisms of a locally compact Hausdorff space X and X/G is an object of Cd.
