In this paper, we establish a rigidity result for automorphisms of multiplicative direct products of $D$-rings which are total ring of fraction that have pairwise distinct cardinalities. Under these assumptions, every automorphism acts…

If an open subgroup of the group of the invertible measures on a LCA group is isometric to another, then the correspoinding underlying LCA groups are topologically isomorphic to each other.

We examine sufficient conditions for the dual of a topological group to be metrizable and locally compact.

It is know that the Valdivia compact spaces can be characterized by a special family of retractions called $r$-skeleton (see \cite{kubis1}). Also we know that there are compact spaces with $r$-skeletons which are not Valdivia. In this…

We prove that every endomorphism of the mapping class group of an orientable surface onto a subgroup of finite index is in fact an automorphism.

This paper studies automorphisms and monomorphisms of direct products $\Gamma=\Gamma_1\times\cdots\times\Gamma_r$ of finitely generated virtually solvable minimax groups, a class containing all virtually polycyclic groups. Under an…

Suppose G is a topological group containing a (closed) topological copy of the Frechet-Urysohn fan. If G is a perfectly normal sequential space (a normal k-space) then every closed metrizable subset in $G$ is locally compact. Applying this…

A characterization of $\varkappa$-metrizable compacta in terms of extension of functions and usco retractions into superextensions is established.

We provide a new large class of countable icc groups $\mathcal A$ for which the product rigidity result from [CdSS15] holds: if $\Gamma_1,\dots,\Gamma_n\in\mathcal A$ and $\Lambda$ is any group such that…

Let a group $\Gamma$ act on a paracompact, locally compact, Hausdorff space $M$ by homeomorphisms and let $2^M$ denote the set of closed subsets of $M$. We endow $2^M$ with the Chabauty topology, which is compact and admits a natural…

In this paper, we study the compactness of the product and the commutator of two inner projections on the Hardy spaces over the unit disk and the polydisc. For the single-variable case, we provide a complete characterization of the…

We study when a piecewise full group (a.k.a. topological full group) of homeomorphisms of the Cantor space $X$ can be given a non-discrete totally disconnected locally compact (t.d.l.c.) topology and give a criterion for the alternating…

We prove that the lattice of normal subgroups of ultraproducts of compact simple non-abelian groups is distributive. In the case of ultraproducts of finite simple groups or compact connected simple Lie groups of bounded rank the set of…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. (Compact) topological $G$-manifolds have the $G$-homotopy type of (finite-dimensional) countable $G$-CW complexes (2.5). This partly generalizes Elfving's theorem for locally linear $G$-manifolds [Elf96],…

A conformal product structure on a Riemannian manifold is a Weyl connection with reducible holonomy. We give the geometric description of all compact K\"ahler manifolds admitting conformal product structures

It is proved that the mapping class group of any closed surface with finitely many marked points is quasiisometric to a CAT(0) cube complex. We provide two distinct proofs, one tailored to mapping class groups, and one applying to a larger…

We define a metric ultraproduct of topological groups with left-invariant metric, and show that there is a countable sequence of finite groups with left-invariant metric whose metric ultraproduct contains isometrically as a subgroup every…

In the stable general linear group over an arbitrary field, we prove that every element with determinant $\pm 1$ is the product of three involutions, and of no less in general. We also obtain several results of the same flavor, with…

In this article, we are interested in the question whether any complete contractible $3$-manifold of positive scalar curvature is homeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. We study the fundamental group at infinity, $\pi_{1}^{\infty}$, and its…

We show that the cohomology group of the equivariant simplicial de Rham complex is isomorphic to the cohomology group of the classifying space of a semi-direct product group.
