In 1979 Edgar asked for a characterization of those completely regular Hausdorff topological spaces X which have the property that any Boolean σ-homomorphism from the Baire σ-field of X into the measure algebra of an arbitrary complete probability space can be realized by a measurable point-mapping. Those spaces X will be called homomorphism-compact or, for short, H-compact hereafter. It is wellknown that compact spaces are H-compact (cf. [4], p. 637, Proposition 3.4). We will show that the same is true for strongly measure compact spaces. On the other hand H-compact spaces are easily seen to be real-compact. Since the notions of measure-compactness and liftingcompactness (cf. [3]) also lie between strong measure-compactness and real-compactness it is natural to investigate the relations among these notions. Here the results are mainly negative (cf. Sections 4 and 6). Concerning the structural properties of H-compactness not very much can be said so far (cf. Section 7): it is, for instance, unknown whether the product of two H-compact spaces is again H-compact.

The structure of the probability space associated with a general point process, when regarded as a counting process, is reviewed using the coincidence formalism. The rest of the paper is devoted to the class of regular point processes for which all coincidence probabilities admit densities. It is shown that their distribution is completely specified by the system of coincidence densities. The specification formalism is stressed for ‘completely’ regular point processes. A construction theorem gives a characterization of the system of coincidence densities of such a process. It permits the study of most models of point processes. New results on the photon process, a particular type of conditioned Poisson process, are derived. New examples are exhibited, including the Gauss-Poisson process and the ‘fermion’ process that is suitable whenever the points are repulsive.

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.

For a complete probability space(Ω,∑,P), the set of all complete sub-σ-algebras of∑,S(∑), is given a natural metric and studied. The questions of whenS(∑)is compact or connected are awswered and the important subset consisting of all continuous sub-σ-algebras is shown to be closed. Connections with Christensen's metric on the von Neumann subalgebras of a TypeII1-factor are briefly discussed.

A new metric is introduced on the set of all sub-σ-algebras of a complete probability space from functional analysis point of view. In this note, we will show that the resulting metric space is complete.

LetXbe a completely regular, Hausdorff space and letRbe the set of points inXwhich do not possess compact neighborhoods. AssumeRis compact. IfXhas a compactification with a countable remainder, then so does the quotientX/R, and a countable compactificatlon ofX/Rimplies one forX−R. A characterization of whenX/Rhas a compactification with a countable remainder is obtained. Examples show that the above implications cannot be reversed.

A problem which has generated considerable interest during the past couple of decades is that of characterizing abstractly systems of realvalued continuous functions with various algebraic or topological-algebraic structures. With few exceptions known characterizations are of systems of bounded continuous functions on compact or locally compact spaces. Only recently have characterizations been given of the systems C(X) of all realvalued continuous functions on an arbitrary completely regular space X (1). One of the main objects of this paper is to provide, by using certain special techniques, a characterization of C(X) for a particular class of (not necessarily compact) completely regular spaces.

Let (Ω,F,μ) be a complete probability space, E a separable Banach space and E′ the topological dual vector space of E. We present some compactness results in LE′1E, the Banach space of weak*-scalarly integrable E′-valued functions. As well we extend the classical theorem of Komlós to the bounded sequences in LE′1E.

This paper proves that uniform spaces and admissible spaces form the same class of topological spaces. This result characterizes a completely regular space as a topological space that admits an admissible family of open coverings. In addition, the admissible family of coverings provides an interesting methodology of studying aspects of uniformity and dynamics in completely regular spaces.

In a recent publication H. Brandenburg [5] introduced D-completely regular topological spaces as a natural extension of completely regular (not necessarily T1) spaces: Whereas every closed subset A of a completely regular space X and every x ∈ X\A can be separated by a continuous function into a pseudometrizable space (namely into the unit interval), D-completely regular spaces admit such a separation into developable spaces. In analogy to the work of O. Frink [16], J. M. Aarts and J. de Groot [19] and others ([38], [46]), Brandenburg derived a base characterization of D-completely regular spaces, which gives rise in a natural way to two new regularity conditions, D-regularity and weak regularity.
