Lineability, spaceability, and additivity cardinals for Darboux-like functions

We introduce the concept of maximal lineability cardinal number, mL(M), of a subset M of a topological vector space and study its relation to the cardinal numbers known as: additivity A(M), homogeneous lineability HL(M), and lineability L(M) of M. In particular, we will describe, in terms of L, the lineability and spaceability of the families of the following Darboux-like functions on Rn, n⩾1: extendable, Jones, and almost continuous functions.
