Homotopy type of the Hausdorff metric

In J. Andres, M. Väth, Calculation of Lefschetz and Nielsen Numbers in Hyperspaces for Fractals and Dynamical Systems, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 135 (2007), 479-487, it was shown (esssentially, the resul …

What do absolute neighborhood retracts look like?

For Euclidean neighborhood retracts, there is the nice characterization of being locally connected (and locally compact). Unfortunately, in the infinite-dimensional case, locally connectedness is nece …

Under what general conditions is the set $S := \left\{\int_{X}v(x)\pi(x)\,\mathrm{d}P(x) \mi...

I guess that if $v$ is $P$-integrable then the answer is positive, and actually the set is compact. Indeed, what you are looking for in this case is the compactness of the Aumann integral of the measu …

What is your favorite proof of Tychonoff's Theorem?

Late to the party, but I think still worth mentioning as it seems to be relatively unknown: The “simple proof” given by D, G. Wright is particularly nice, because It uses only the definition of compa …

Axiom of Countable Choice and meager sets

What is your definition of meager in (ZF)? Being a countable union of nowhere dense sets? In that case, the given argument about the failure of (UMM) in (ZF) is not clear: It is not obvious (to me) th …

Relative compactness in topological spaces (reference request)

My guess is that even $T_3$ is already sufficient. I do not have access to the monograph Fletcher, Peter and Lindgren, William F., Quasi-uniform spaces, M. Dekker, New York, Basel 1982, in the moment, …

Continuity of Kakutani fixed points

I assume that you mean that $F$ is upper semicontinuous on the product space. Then in particular (since $X$ is compact, Hausdorff and $F$ has closed values), $F$ has a closed graph. This implies that …

Proving neighborhood of a compact product space contains a sub-neighborhood formed by taking...

Algernon's argument seems to need a special case of Tychonoff's theorem to get to the finiteness of the union. Here is an argument which avoids that. Lemma: Let $A\subseteq X$ be compact and $B\subset …
