A topology on a nonempty set $X$ specifies a natural subset of $\mathcal{P}(X)$. By identifying $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{P}(X))$ with the totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space $2^{\mathcal{P}(X)}$, the lattice $Top(X)$ of all topologies…

The topological complexity ${\sf TC}(X)$ is a homotopy invariant of a topological space $X$, motivated by robotics, and providing a measure of the navigational complexity of $X$. The topological complexity of a connected sum of real…

A metric space M is homogeneous if every isometry between finite subsets extends to a surjective isometry defined on the whole space. We show that if M is an ultrametric space, it suffices that isometries defined on singletons extend, i.e…

We extend the result in J. Reine Angew. Math. 664, 29-53, to the non-compact case. Namely, we prove that the canonical connection on a simply connected and irreducible naturally reductive space is unique, provided the space is not a sphere,…

A topology $\tau$ on a set $X$ is called maximal connected if it is connected, but no strictly finer topology $\tau^* > \tau$ is connected. We consider a construction of so-called tree sums of topological spaces, and we show how this…

A convex subset X of a linear topological space is called compactly convex if there is a continuous compact-valued map $\Phi:X\to exp(X)$ such that $[x,y]\subset\Phi(x)\cup \Phi(y)$ for all $x,y\in X$. We prove that each convex subset of…

We shall prove that the Hilbert cube cannot be separated by a weakly infinite dimensional subset. As a corollary we obtain that the complement of a weakly infinite dimensional subset of the space of complete non negatively curved metrics is…

We prove that each metrizable space (of cardinality less or equal to continuum) has a (first countable) uniform Eberlein compactification and each scattered metrizable space has a scattered hereditarily paracompact compactification. Each…

A ringed finite space is a ringed space whose underlying topological space is finite. The category of ringed finite spaces contains, fully faithfully, the category of finite topological spaces and the category of affine schemes. Any ringed…

In this article, we first prove a general result in topology which states that every quasi-component of a quasi-spectral space is connected. \\ As an application, the structure of the connected components of every quasi-compact…

Let G be a locally compact group, and let U be its unitary representation on a Hilbert space H. Endow the space L(H) of linear bounded operators on H with weak operator topology. We prove that if U is a measurable map from G to L(H) then it…

Let $X$ be a locally 1-connected metric space and $A_1,A_2,...,A_n$ be connected, locally path connected and compact pairwise disjoint subspaces of $X$. In this paper, we show that the quotient space $X/(A_1,A_2,...,A_n)$ obtained from $X$…

The conventional definition of a topological metric over a space specifies properties that must be obeyed by any measure of "how separated" two points in that space are. Here it is shown how to extend that definition, and in particular the…

Let $X$ be a non-degenerate connected compact metric space. If $X$ admits a distal minimal action by a finitely generated amenable group, then the first \vCech cohomology group $ {\check H}^1(X)$ with integer coefficients is nontrivial. In…

We prove that any complete metric space has a unique decomposition as a direct product of a possibly finite or zero-dimensional Hilbert space and a space that does not split off lines.

We construct a continuum of non-homeomorphic compact subspaces of the real line R without singleton components. Thus from the purely topological point of view the real line contains not only more closed sets than open sets but also more…

We will show that, consistently, every uncountable set can be continuously mapped onto a non measure zero set, while there exists an uncountable set whose all continuous images into a Polish space are meager.

An $\omega_1$-compact space is a space in which every closed discrete subspace is countable. We give various general conditions under which a locally compact, $\omega_1$-compact space is $\sigma$-countably compact, i.e., the union of…

Three themes of general topology: quotient spaces; absolute retracts; and inverse limits - are reapproached here in the setting of metrizable uniform spaces, with an eye to applications in geometric and algebraic topology. The results…

In these notes we give a brief introduction to decomposition theory and we summarize some classical and well-known results. The main question is that if a partitioning of a topological space (in other words a decomposition) is given, then…
