The cofinality of $(\mathbb{N}^\kappa,\le)$ for uncountable $\kappa$?
For a partially ordered set $P$, a set $A\subseteq P$ is cofinal if for each element of $P$ there is a larger element in $A$. The cofinality of $P$, ${\rm cof}(P)$, is the minimal cardinality of a ...

A meager subgroup of the real line, which cannot be covered by countably many closed subsets of measure zero?
Is there a ZFC-example of a subgroup $H$ of the real line $\mathbb R$ such $H$ is meager, has zero Lebesgue measure, but cannot be covered by countably many closed subsets of measure zero in $\mathbb ...

Two cardinal characteristics of the continuum, related to the Bohr topology on integers
For a subset $A\subseteq\mathbb T$ of the unit circle $\mathbb T=\{z\in\mathbb C:|z|=1\}$, let $\tau_A$ be the smallest topology on the additive group of integers $\mathbb Z$ such that for every $z\in ...

Is an Abelian topological group compact if it is complete and Bohr-compact?
A topological group $G$ will be called Bohr-compact if its Bohr topology (i.e., the largest precompact group topology) is compact and Hausdorff.
A topological group $G$ is Bohr-compact if it admits ...

What is the smallest number of nowhere dense affine subsets covering a topological group?
$\DeclareMathOperator\cov{cov}\newcommand\A{\text A}$A subset $A$ of a group $G$ is called affine if $A=xHy$ for some subgroup $H\subseteq G$ and some $x,y\in G$.
Given a non-discrete topological ...
