Title: A parallel metrization theorem

Abstract. Two non-empty sets \(A, B\) of a metric space \( (X , d)\) are called parallel if \( d(a, B) = d(A, B) = d(A, b) \) for any points \( a \in A \) and \( b \in B.\) Answering a question posed on mathoverflow.net, we prove that for a cover \( \mathcal{C}\) of a metrizable space \(X\) by compact subsets, the following conditions are equivalent:
(i) the topology of \(X\) is generated by a metric d such that any two sets \(A, B\) of \(\mathcal{C}\) are parallel;
(ii) the cover \( \mathcal{C}\) is disjoint, lower semicontinuous and upper semicontinuous.

Title: Mycielski among trees - nonstandard proofs, part 2

Abstract. We present proofs of Mycielski like Theorem for sigma ideal of meager subsets of Baire space and Egglestone like Theorem. In both proofs we use Schoenfield Absolutness Theorem. In Mycielski Theorem we replace the term perfect set by slalom perfect set what is some strengthen of the classical version. Results are from common paper with Marcin Michalski and Szymon Żeberski.
