Peripherally Compact Tree-Like Spaces are Continuum-Wise Connected

On Semi * - Connected and Semi * - Compact Spaces

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concepts of semi*-connected spaces, semi*-compact spaces and semi*-Lindelof spaces. We investigate their basic properties. We also discuss their relationship with already existing concepts. Mathematics Subject Classification: 54D05, 54D30.

Tree-like Decompositions of Simply Connected Domains

We show that any simply connected rectifiable domain Ω can be decomposed into Lipschitz crescents using only crosscuts of the domain and using total length bounded by a multiple of the length of ∂Ω. In particular, this gives a new proof of a theorem of Peter Jones that such a domain can be decomposed into Lipschitz disks. 1991 Mathematics Subject Classification.

There Are No Stable Points for Continuum-Wise Expansive Homeomorphisms

First Countable, Countably Compact Spaces and the Continuum Hypothesis

We build a model of ZFC+CH in which every first countable, countably compact space is either compact or contains a homeomorphic copy of ω1 with the order topology. The majority of the paper consists of developing forcing technology that allows us to conclude that our iteration adds no reals. Our results generalize Saharon Shelah’s iteration theorems appearing in Chapters V and VIII of Proper an...
