Sorry for the long delay, but it took me a while to get around to applying your suggestion about the package `xspace'. I assumed that all that was necessary was the inclusion of 

\usepackage{xspace}

in the preamble. But that did not work! So 

The set of natural number \N is not

typesets as shown below after my sign off. Other examples behaved the same way. Wondering if I have misinterpreted what you intended!!!
