Abstract

We describe wild embeddings of polyhedra into RN\mathbb{R}^N which show that the answer to the question of B.J. Baker--M. Laidacker (1989) concerning uncountable families of pairwise disjoint compacta can be twofold. The central idea of our construction is the use of specific wild Cantor sets, namely, Antoine--Blankinship--Ivanov necklaces and Krushkal sticky sets. Our basic tools are Antoine's methods and Shtan'ko demension theory.
