In 1962, J. M. G. Fell [5] indicated the important role played by certain topological spaces which, though locally compact in a specialized sense, do not, in general, satisfy even the weakest separation axiom. He called them "locally compact". These were called "punktal kompakt" by Flachsmeyer [6] and to avoid confusion, we shall call them pointwise compact spaces.

The first eight sections of this chapter constitute its core and are generally parallel to the leading sections of chapter 4. Most of the sections are brief and emphasize the nonmetric aspects of topology. Among the topics treated are normality, regularity, and second countability. The proof of Tychonoff’s theorem for finite products appears in section 8. The section on locally compact spaces is the transition between the core of the chapter and the more advanced sections on metrization, compactification, and the product of infinitely many spaces. The highlights include the one-point compactification, the Urysohn metrization theorem, and Tychonoff’s theorem. Little subsequent material is based on the last three sections. At various points in the book, it is explained how results stated for the metric case can be extended to topological spaces, especially locally compact Hausdorff spaces. Some such results are developed in the exercises.

Arhangel'skiĭ proved around 1959 [1] that, for the class of perfectly normal locally compact spaces, metacompactness and paracompactness are equivalent. It is shown to be consistent that this equivalence holds for the (larger) class of normal locally compact spaces (answering a question of Tall [8], [9]).The consistency of the existence of locally compact normal noncollectionwise Hausdorff spaces has been known since 1967. It is shown that the existence of such spaces is independent of the axioms of set theory, thus establishing that Bing's example G cannot be modified under ZFC to be locally compact.All topological spaces are assumed to be Hausdorff.First, a definition and three standard lemmata are needed.

Using a gradation of openness in a (Chang fuzzy)I-topological space, we introduce degrees of compactness that we callα-fuzzy compactness (whereαbelongs to the unit interval), so extending the concept of compactness due to C. L. Chang. We obtain a Baire category theorem forα-locally compact spaces and construct a one-pointα-fuzzy compactification of anI-topological space.

A topological space X is locally weakly separable [3] at a point x∈X if x has a weakly separable neighbourhood. A topological space X is locally weakly separable if X is locally weakly separable at every point x∈X. The notion of local weak separability can be generalized for any cardinal τ ≥ℵ0 . A topological space X is locally weakly τ-dense at a point x∈X if τ is the smallest cardinal number such that x has a weak τ-dense neighborhood in X [4]. The local weak density at a point x is denoted as lwd(x). The local weak density of a topological space X is defined in following way: lwd ( X ) = sup{ lwd ( x) : x∈ X } . A topological space X is locally τ-dense at a point x∈X if τ is the smallest cardinal number such that x has a τ-dense neighborhood in X [4]. The local density at a point x is denoted as ld(x). The local density of a topological space X is defined in following way: ld ( X ) = sup{ ld ( x) : x∈ X } . It is known that for any topological space we have ld(X ) ≤ d(X ) . In this paper, we study questions of the local weak τ-density of topological spaces and establish sufficient conditions for the preservation of the property of a local weak τ-density of subsets of topological spaces. It is proved that a subset of a locally τ-dense space is also locally weakly τ-dense if it satisfies at least one of the following conditions: (a) the subset is open in the space; (b) the subset is everywhere dense in space; (c) the subset is canonically closed in space. A proof is given that the sum, intersection, and product of locally weakly τ-dense spaces are also locally weakly τ-dense spaces. And also questions of local τ-density and local weak τ-density are considered in locally compact spaces. It is proved that these two concepts coincide in locally compact spaces.

AbstractWe study Tychonoff spaces X with the property that, for all topological embeddings X → Y, the induced map C(Y ) → C(X) is an epimorphism of rings. Such spaces are called absolute 𝒞ℛ-epic. The simplest examples of absolute 𝒞ℛ-epic spaces are σ-compact locally compact spaces and Lindelöf P-spaces. We show that absolute CR-epic first countable spaces must be locally compact.However, a “bad” class of absolute CR-epic spaces is exhibited whose pathology settles, in the negative, a number of open questions. Spaces which are not absolute CR-epic abound, and some are presented.

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.
