Grzegorz Plebanek: Countable extensions of compact lines

Location: room A.2.22 C-19
Speaker: Grzegorz Plebanek
Title: Countable extensions of compact lines
Abstract: For a compact space \(K\), we say that \(L\) is a countable discrete extension of \(K\) if \(L\) is compact and consists of \(K\) and a countable set of isolated points. We investigate some properties of such extenions for separable compact lines \(K\). This is directly related to properties of almost chains of subsets of \( \mathbb{N}\).

Grzegorz Plebanek: A complemented subspace of a C(K)-space which is not a C(K)-space

Location: room 605, Mathematical Institute, University of Wroclaw
Speaker: Grzegorz Plebanek
Title: A complemented subspace of a C(K)-space which is not a C(K)-space
Abstract: We present a construction of two separable compacta K and L such that C(L) is a direct sum of C(K) and some Banach space X which is not isomorphic to a space of continuous functions. Joint work with Alberto Salguero Alarcon (Badajoz).

Grzegorz Plebanek: Generalized Corson compacta and calibers of measures

Location: room 605, Mathematical Institute, University of Wroclaw
Speaker: Grzegorz Plebanek
Title: Generalized Corson compacta and calibers of measures
Abstract: We consider compact spaces which can be embedded into a product of real lines so that the support of every element is of size \(<\kappa\); here \(\kappa\) is a fixed cardinal number. We discuss measure-theoretic properties of such spaces and related properties of Banach spaces of continuous functions.

Grzegorz Plebanek: A connected version of Kunen's compact L-space

Location: Zoom.us: if you want to participate please contact organizers
Speaker: Grzegorz Plebanek
Title: A connected version of Kunen's compact L-space
Abstract: Modifying Kunen's construction from 1981, we show that under CH there is a compact connected space K that carries a regular normal probability measure (normal = `all Borel sets with empty interior have measure zero'). Then we show that the Banach space C(K) of continuous functions is isomorphic to no space of the form C(L) with L compact and zero-dimensional.

Speaker: Grzegorz Plebanek
Title: Baire Category Theorem in \(\mathbb{R}^\kappa\)
Abstract. A topological space X is BAIRE if it satisifes the theorem in the title. The space X is hereditary Baire if every closed subspace of X is Baire. We discuss a question which products of the real lines are hereditary Baire.

Grzegorz Plebanek: Small almost disjoint families with applications

Room: D1-215
Speaker: Grzegorz Plebanek
Title: Small almost disjoint families with applications
Abstract. We consider almost disjoint families that cannot be divided into n separated parts (for a fixed n). The basic question is what is the possible size of such a family. Those families are applicable to some problems on spaces of continuous functions.

Grzegorz Plebanek: Strictly positive measures on Boolean algebras

Room: D1-215
Speaker: Grzegorz Plebanek
Title: Strictly positive measures on Boolean algebras
Abstract. \(SPM\) denotes the class of Boolean algebras possessing strictly positive measure (finitely additive and probabilistic). Together with Menachem Magidor, we consider the following problem: Assume that \(B\) belongs to \(SPM\) for every subalgebra \(B\) of a given algebra \(A\) such that \(|B|\le\mathfrak c\). Does it imply that the algebra \(A\) belongs to \(SPM\)?
It turns out that the positive answer follows from the existence of some large cardinals, while the counterexample can be found in the model of \(V=L\).

Room: D1-215
Speaker: Grzegorz Plebanek
Title: On almost disjoint families with property (R)
Abstract. We consider (with A.Aviles and W. Marciszewski) almost disjoint families with some combinatorial property that has applications in functional analysis. We are looking for the minimal cardinality of m.a.d. family with property (R). It turns out that this cardinal is not greater than \(non(\mathcal{N})\) the uniformity of null sets.

Room: D1-215
Speaker: Grzegorz Plebanek
Title: About a particular measure on the square
Abstract. Assuming the existence of Sierpiński set we construct a measure on some \(\sigma\)-field of subsets of the square which is perfect but not compact. This construction in 2001 answered Fremlin's question. We will describe open problems connected to this field.
