Shape dimension of maps

Algebraic Topology 2023-08-29 v1

Abstract

In this paper we define a numerical shape invariant of a continuous map called shape dimension of a map, which generalizes the shape dimension of a topological space. Some basic properties and applications of this invariant are given. The question of raising the shape dimension by shape finite-dimensional maps is solved. An example of a shape finite-dimensional surjective map between shape infinite-dimensional spaces is given.
