Can functions be differentiable on sets with empty interiors?

You can parametrize such sets and then consider the differentiability with respect to the parameters. The differentiability property will be invariant with respect to diffeomorphisms: if two parametri …

Convex subsets of an open set

Yet a bit more on the positive side: If $Y$ is a convex subset of an open convex subset $X$ of a normed space, then the set $Z:=\bigcup_{y\in Y}B_y^X$ will do, where $B_y^X$ is the largest open ball c …

Can Theorem 1.40 in Rudin's Real and Complex Analysis be strengthened when the $\sigma$-alge...

$\newcommand\R{\mathbb R}\newcommand\F{\mathcal F}$A counterexample is as follows. Let $X=(0,\infty)$ and $\tau:=\{\emptyset\}\cup\{(t,\infty)\colon t\in[0,\infty)\}$. Then $\F$ is the usual Borel $\s …

Scott topology: Suprema of sequences are topological limits

$\newcommand\LL{\mathcal L}$Brief answer: The Scott topology is not Hausdorff, and therefore we have to deal here with the set of limits, rather than with the (unique) limit. Here, for the set $\LL_D$ …

Closed graph correspondence which never contains the whole support

For every sequence of nonempty open sets there is a disjoint sequence of nonempty open sets ...

Apparently, there are no such nice properties. Even $K=[0,1]$ will not be such a compact Hausdorff space. Indeed, consider the countable double-indexed family $(U_{n,k}\colon n\in\Bbb N,k\in\{0,\dots, …

Is every regular Borel outer measure topologically additive?

Yes, any regular Borel outer measure $m$ is topologically additive. Indeed, take any $S,T \subseteq X$ such that $S\subseteq U$ and $T\subseteq V$ for some disjoint open subsets $U$ and $V$ of $X$. Ta …

Basis for space of continuous, surjective monotone functions on $\mathbb{R}$

$\newcommand\R{\mathbb R}$$\newcommand\LBV{\mathrm{LBV}}$As was noted in comments, the set of all monotone functions (or your version of it, $\mathrm{CM}^+(\R)$) is not a linear space. An appropriate …

$\newcommand\R{\mathbb R}$No. E.g., suppose that $n=k=1$ and $$F(f)=\min\Big(1,\int_0^2 |f(x)|\,dx\Big)$$ for $f\in C(\R;\R)$. Then $F$ is continuous and bounded on $C(\R;\R)$. For natural $m$, let $$ …

Degree of continous function, a question about its representation

The answer is no. Indeed, let $h$ be the periodic function with period $2$ such that $h(x)=2|x|$ if $|x|\le1$. Let $$f(x):=x+h(x)=x+2 \left| x-2 \left\lfloor \frac{x+1}{2}\right\rfloor \right| $$ for …

Closure of $C([0,1]^2)$ via weak*-topology

By the Riesz–Markov theorem, your $C^*$ is the space of all finite signed Borel measures on $Q:=[0,1]^2$ endowed with the total variation norm $\|\cdot\|$, which is the same as your dual norm $\|\cdot …

Continuum-distanced complete, ultrametric space

This is impossible, because for any complete normed space $X$ and any nonincreasing sequence $(B_n)$ of nonempty closed balls in $X$ we have $\bigcap_n B_n\ne\emptyset$. Indeed, take any nonincreasi …
