Covering number estimates for Hölder balls
Let $\alpha \in (0,1]$, $r>0$ and $L>0$, and positive intwgers $n$ and $m$. The Arzela-Ascoli Theorem guarantees that the set $X(\alpha,L,r)$ of $f:[-1,1]^n\rightarrow [-r,r]^m$ with $\alpha$-...

Examples of metric spaces with measurable midpoints
Given a (separable complete) metric space $X=(X,d)$, let us say $X$ has the measurable (resp. continuous) midpoint property if there exists a measurable (resp. continuous) mapping $m:X \times X \to X$ ...

Topological characterization of injective metric spaces
Let $\ (X\ d)\ \,(Y\ \delta)\ $ be arbitrary metric spaces. A function $\ f:X\rightarrow Y\ $ is called a metric map (with respect to the given metrics $\ d\ \delta$) $\ \Leftarrow:\Rightarrow\ \...

The space of analytic associative operations
This question is a follow-up to this old one of mine.
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be the set of functions $\star:\mathbb{R}^2\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ which are associative and $C^\omega$ (real analytic entire) in ...

Non-separable Banach space
The vector space $C_b(\mathbb R)$ of bounded continuous functions on $\mathbb R$ is non-separable: it is possible to produce a direct proof of this fact, mimicking the standard proof for the non-...

Continuity of central point operation
Stanisław Mazur and Stanisław Ulam, in their joint paper, characterized the mid-point $\ \frac{a+b}2\ $ in a Banach space in pure metric terms (without algebra). This allowed them to show that any two ...

Metrizing pointwise convergence of *sequences* of functionals in a dual space
This question was asked by myself on the math stackexchange a few days ago. I thought I'd repeat it here:
Let $X$ be a normed, real vector space of uncountable dimension. Let $X^*$ denote the set of ...

Is any submetrizable linear topology linearly submetrizable?
Let $E$ be a vector space. A topology $\tau$ on $E$ is called (linearly) submetrizable if there is a (linear) metrizable topology $\pi$ on $E$ which is weaker than $\tau$, i.e. $\pi\subset\tau$.
Is ...

Proving that family of sets has non-empty intersection
Let's say I have an object which can be viewed as family of sets $\mathfrak{S} \subseteq 2^S$, and I want to prove that its intersection is non-empty. What is known already:
$S$ is set of measurable ...

Generalize upper semicontinuous regularization using Borel Hierachy
Let $X$ be a metric space. Suppose a real-valued function $f:X\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is upper semicontinuous class $2$ if for all $c \in \mathbb{R},$ its preimage $f^{-1}(-\infty,c)$ is $F_{\sigma}$.

Equicontinuity of $\{f_{2n}\circ f_{2n-1}\}$
Let $(X,D)$ be a compact metric space and $\{f_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of homeomorphisms of $(X,d)$. It is easy to see that if $\{f_n\}$ is uniformly convergent then $\{g_n\}$ defined by $...
