We prove that each metrizable space (of cardinality less or equal to continuum) has a (first countable) uniform Eberlein compactification and each scattered metrizable space has a scattered hereditarily paracompact compactification. Each compact scattered hereditarily paracompact space is uniform Eberlein and belongs to the smallest class of compact spaces, that contain the empty set, the singleton, and is closed under producing the Aleksandrov compactification of the topological sum of a family of compacta from that class.
Given a Lie group $G$ we study the class $M$ of proper metrizable $G$-spaces with metrizable orbit spaces, and show that any $G$-space $X in M$ admits a closed $G$-embedding into a convex $G$-subset $C$ of some locally convex linear $G$-space, such that $X$ has some $G$-neighborhood in $C$ which belongs to the class $M$. As corollaries we see that any $G$-ANE for $M$ has the $G$-homotopy type of some $G$-CW complex and that any $G$-ANR for $M$ is a $G$-ANE for $M$.
Given a dynamical system $(X,f)$, we let $E(X,f)$ denote its Ellis semigroup and $E(X,f)^* = E(X,f) setminus {f^n : n in mathbb{N}}$. We analyze the Ellis semigroup of a dynamical system having a compact metric countable space as a phase space. We show that if $(X,f)$ is a dynamical system such that $X$ is a compact metric countable space and every accumulation point $X$ is periodic, then either each function of $E(X,f)^*$ is continuous or each function of $E(X,f)^*$ is discontinuous. We describe an example of a dynamical system $(X,f)$ where $X$ is a compact metric countable space, the orbit of each accumulation point is finite and $E(X,f)^*$ contains continuous and discontinuous functions.
We study products of general topological spaces with Mengers covering property, and its refinements based on filters and semifilters. To this end, we extend the projection method from the classic real line topology to the Michael topology. Among other results, we prove that, assuming CH{}, every productively Lindelof space is productively Menger, and every productively Menger space is productively Hurewicz. None of these implications is reversible.
We use lexicographic products to give examples of compact spaces of first Baire class functions on a compact metric space that cannot be represented as spaces of functions with countably many discontinuities.
A separable space is strongly sequentially separable if, for each countable dense set, every point in the space is a limit of a sequence from the dense set. We consider this and related properties, for the spaces of continous and Borel real-valued functions on Tychonoff spaces, with the topology of pointwise convergence. Our results solve a problem stated by Gartside, Lo, and Marsh.
