RT Journal Article T1 On very non-linear subsets of continuous functions A1 Botelho, G. A1 Cariello, Daniel A1 Pellegrino, D. A1 Seoane-SepĂșlveda, Juan B. AB In this paper we continue the study initiated by Gurariy and Quarta in 2004 on the existence of linear spaces formed, up to the null vector, by continuous functions that attain the maximum only at one point. Inserting a topological flavor to the subject, we prove that results already known for functions defined on certain subsets of R are actually true for functions on quite general topological spaces. In the line of the original results of Gurariy and Quarta, we prove that, depending on the desired dimension, such subspaces may exist or not.
