In a recent paper Mostert and Shields (4) showed that if a space homeomorphic to the non-negative real numbers is a certain type of topological semigroup, then the semigroup must be that of the non-negative real numbers with the usual multiplication. Somewhat earlier Faucett (2) showed that if a compact connected ordered space is a suitably restricted topological semigroup, then it must be both topologically and algebraically the same as the unit interval of real numbers with its usual multiplication.In studying certain binary relations on topological spaces there have become known (see, in particular, Wallace (5) and the author (3)) a number of properties analogous to those possessed by topological semigroups. Because of these analogous properties between relations and semigroups the author was motivated by the general nature of the Faucett and Mostert-Shields results (that is, that the multiplication assumed turned out to be the same as the usual multiplication) to feel that certain relations on a connected ordered space should turn out to be the same as the orders whose order topologies are the topology on the space.

Abstract Functions of dimension modulo a (rather wide) class of spaces are considered and the conditions are found, under which the dimension of the product of spaces modulo these classes is equal to zero. Based on these results, the sufficient conditions are established, under which spaces of free topological semigroups (in the sense of Marxen) and spaces of free topological groups (in the sense of Markov and Graev) are zero-dimensional modulo classes of compact spaces.

SynopsisIn this paper we define two semigroups of continuous relations on topological spaces and determine a large class of spaces for which Banach-Stone type theorems hold, i.e. spaces for which isomorphism of the semigroups implies homeomorphism of the spaces. This class includes all 0-dimensional Hausdorff spaces and all those completely regular Hausdorff spaces which contain an arc; indeed all of K. D. Magill's S*-spaces are included. Some of the algebraic structure of the semigroup of all continuous relations is elucidated and a method for producing examples of topological semigroups of relations is discussed.

1. Introduction. K. Deleeuw and I. Glicksberg [4] proved that if S and T are commutative topological semigroups with identity, then the Bochner almost periodic compactification of S × T is the direct product of the Bochner almost periodic compactifications of S and T. In Section 3 we consider the semidirect product of two semi topological semigroups with identity and two unital C*-subalgebras and of W(S) and W(T) respectively, where W(S) is the weakly almost periodic functions on S. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions and for a semidirect product compactification of to exist such that this compactification is a semi topological semigroup and such that this compactification is a topological semigroup. Moreover, we obtain the largest such compactifications.

Mrowka and Engleking [1] have recently introduced a notion more general than that of compactness. Perhaps the most convenient direction at departure is the following: for spaces X and E, X is said to be E-compact if X is topologically embeddable as a closed subset of a product Em for some cardinal m, in which case we write X ⊂cl Em. More generally, X is said to be E-completely regular if X is topologically embeddable in a product Em for some m. For example, if we take E to be the unit interval I, we obtain the class of compact spaces and completely regular spaces, respectively, as is well-known. The question then arises, of course, given a space E, what spaces are compact with respect to it? A related question, to which we address ourselves in this note, is the following. Denote by K[E] all those topological spaces which are E-compact. Then we ask: are there very many distinct E-compact classes? It will develop that there are indeed quite a large number of such classes.

Let A be the automorphism group of the unit interval with its usual order relation, and let ℝ+ be the embedding of the multiplicative group of positive real numbers into A given by exponentiation. Strict t-norms are in one-to-one correspondence with the right cosets of ℝ+ in A. Here, we identify the normalizer of ℝ+ in A and give explicit formulas for the corresponding set of t-norms.

AbstractFleischer proved that a linearly ordered set that is separable in its order topology and has countably many jumps is order-isomorphic to a subset of the real numbers. The object of this paper is to extend Fleischer's result and to prove it in a different way. The proof of the theorem is based on Nachbin's extension to ordered topological spaces of Urysohn's separation theorem in normal topological spaces.

This paper is concerned with topological spaces whose continuous maps into a given space R are constant, as well as with spaces having this property locally. We call these spaces R-monolithic and locally R-monolithic, respectively.Spaces with such properties have been considered in [1], [5]-[7], [10], [11], [22], [28], [31], where with the exception of [10], the given space R is the set of real-numbers with the usual topology. Obviously, for a countable space, connectedness is equivalent to the property that every continuous real-valued map is constant. Countable connected (locally connected) spaces have been constructed in papers [2]-[4], [8], [9], [11]-[21], [23]-[26], [30].

Let S be a (jointly continuous) topological semigroup, C(S) the set of all bounded complex-valued continuous functions on S and M (S) the set of all bounded complex-valued Radon measures on S. Let (S) (or (S)) be the set of all µ ∈ M (S) such that x → │µ│ (x-1C) (or x → │µ│(Cx-1), respectively) is a continuous mapping of S into ℝ, for every compact set C ⊆ S, and . (Here │µ│ denotes the measure arising from the total variation of µ and the sets x-1C and Cx-1 are as defined in Section 2.) When S is locally compact the set Ma(S) was studied by A. C. and J. W. Baker in (1) and (2), by Sleijpen in (14), (15) and (16) and by us in (3). In this paper we show that some of the results of (1), (2), (14) and (15) remain valid for certain non-locally compact S and raise some new problems for such S.

For a very large class of topological semigroups, we establish lower and upper bounds for the cardinality of the set of left invariant means on the space of left uniformly continuous functions. In certain cases we show that such a cardinality is exactly , where b is the smallest cardinality of the covering of the underlying topological semigroup by compact sets.

The setup of a mathematical propositional logic is given in algebraic terms, describing exactly when two choices of truth value algebras give the same logic. The propositional logic obtained when the algebra of truth values is the real numbers in the unit interval equipped with minimum, maximum and -x=1-x for conjunction, disjunction and negation, respectively, is the standard propositional fuzzy logic. This is shown to be the same as three-valued logic. The propositional logic obtained when the algebra of truth values is the set {(a, b)|a≤ b and a,b∈[0,1]} of subintervals of the unit interval with component-wise operations, is propositional interval-valued fuzzy logic. This is shown to be the same as the logic given by a certain four element lattice of truth values. Since both of these logics are equivalent to ones given by finite algebras, it follows that there are finite algorithms for determining when two statements are logically equivalent within either of these logics. On this topic, normal forms are discussed for both of these logics.
