When Cp(X) Is Domain Representable, William Fleissner, Lynne Yengulalp
Lynne Yengulalp
Let M be a metrizable group. Let G be a dense subgroup of MX . If G is domain representable, then G = MX . The following corollaries answer open questions. If X is completely regular and Cp(X) is domain representable, then X is discrete. If X is zero-dimensional, T2 , and Cp(X;D) is subcompact, then X is discrete.

We prove that a k-tree can be viewed as a subgraph of a special type of (k + 1)- tree that corresponds to a stacked polytope and that these “stacked” (k + 1)-trees admit representations by orthogonal spheres in R k+1. As a result, we derive lower bounds for Colin de Verdi`ere’s µ of complements of partial k-trees and prove that µ(G) + µ(G) > |G| − 2 for all chordal G.
Coarser Connected Topologies And Non-Normality Points, Lynne Yengulalp
Coarser Connected Topologies And Non-Normality Points, Lynne Yengulalp
Lynne Yengulalp
We investigate two topics, coarser connected topologies and non-normality points. The motivating question in the first topic is:
Question 0.0.1. When does a space have a coarser connected topology with a nice topological property? We will discuss some results when the property is Hausdorff and prove that if X is a non-compact metric space that has weight at least c, then it has a coarser connected metrizable topology. The second topic is concerned with the following question:
Question 0.0.2. When is a point y ∈ β X\X a non-normality point of β X\X? We will discuss the question in the …

We seek conditions implying that (β X\X) \ {y} is not normal. Our main theorem: Assume GCH and all uniform ultrafilters are regular. If X is a locally compact metrizable space without isolated points, then (β X\X) \ {y} is not normal for all y ∈ β X\X. In preparing to prove this theorem, we generalize the notions “uniform”, “regular”, and “good” from set ultrafilters to z-ultrafilters. We discuss non-normality points of the product of a discrete space and the real line. We topologically embed a nonstandard real line into the remainder of this product space.
