In the early 1960s, Brown and Mazur proved the general Jordan-Schoenflies theorem. This fundamental theorem states: If we embed an $(n-1)$ sphere $S^{(n-1)}$ locally flatly in an $n$ sphere $S^{n}$, then it decomposes $S^{n}$ into two…

The equivariant cohomology of a space with a group action is not only a ring but also an algebra over the cohomology ring of the classifying space of the acting group. We prove that toric manifolds (i.e. compact smooth toric varieties) are…

The well-known Bohr--P\'al theorem asserts that for every continuous real-valued function $f$ on the circle $\mathbb T$ there exists a change of variable, i.e., a homeomorphism $h$ of $\mathbb T$ onto itself, such that the Fourier series of…

We study how to construct explicit deformations of generic smooth maps from closed $n$--dimensional manifolds $M$ with $n \geq 2$ to the $2$--sphere $S^2$ and show that every smooth map $M \to S^2$ is homotopic to a $C^\infty$ stable map…

We prove that every two-dimensional quasisphere is the limit of a sequence of smooth spheres that are uniform quasispheres. In the case of metric spheres of finite area we provide necessary and sufficient geometric conditions for a…

We define a generalization of the fixed point set, called the bounded fixed set, for a group acting by isometries on a metric space. An analogue of the P. A. Smith theorem is proved for metric spaces of finite asymptotic dimension, which…

We prove a topological rigidity theorem for closed hypersurfaces of the Euclidean sphere and of an elliptic space form. It asserts that, under a lower bound hypothesis on the absolute value of the principal curvatures, the hypersurface is…

Any two infinite-dimensional (separable) Hilbert spaces are unitarily isomorphic. The sets of all their self-adjoint operators are also therefore unitarily equivalent. Thus if all self-adjoint operators can be observed, and if there is no…

The Moore spectrum $\mathrm{M}_p(i)$ is the cofiber of the $p^{i}$ map on the sphere spectrum. For a fixed $p$ and $n$, we find a lower bound on $i$ for which $\mathrm{M}_p(i)$ is guaranteed to be $n$-fold associative. This bound depends on…

This paper investigates the classical and quantum elementary systems with Newton-Hoooke symmetry. A complete classification is given by explicit computation. In addition, we present an application example of quantization using the Moyal…

We show that the main theorem of Morse theory holds for a large class of functions on singular spaces. The function must satisfy certain conditions extending the usual requirements on a manifold that Condition C holds and the gradient flow…

We obtain simple characterizations of the connected components of the space of closed curves on the 2-sphere whose geodesic curvatures are constrained to lie in an open interval $(\kappa_1,\kappa_2)$, in terms of $\kappa_1$ and $\kappa_2$.…

We show that a homeomorphism of a semi-locally connected compact metric space is equicontinuous if and only if the distance between the iterates of a given point and a given subcontinuum (not containing that point) is bounded away from…

In the year 1968 N.V. Efimov has proven the following remarkable theorem: \textit{Let $f:\mathbb R^2\to\mathbb R^2\in C^1$ be such that $\det f'(x)<0$ for all $x\in\mathbb R^2$ and let there exist a function $a=a(x)>0$ and constants…

This paper extends the decorated Teichm\"uller theory developed before for punctured surfaces to the setting of ``bordered'' surfaces, i.e., surfaces with boundary, and there is non-trivial new structure discovered. The main new result…

The Hopf theorem states that homotopy classes of continuous maps from a closed connected oriented smooth $n$-manifold $M$ to the $n$-sphere are classified by their degree. Such a map is equivalent to a section of the trivial $n$-sphere…

The aim of this article is to complete results of [M.00] and [B.08] and to show that they imply a rather general existence theorem for meromorphic quotient of strongly quasi-proper meromorphic equivalence relations. In this context, generic…

We prove results about orbit closures and equidistribution for the SL(2,R) action on the moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces, which are analogous to the theory of unipotent flows. The proofs of the main theorems rely on the measure…

The present paper finds new necessary and sufficient conditions for $6$-dimensional closed and simply-connected manifolds of certain classes to admit special generic maps into certain Euclidean spaces. The class of special generic maps…

Theorem converse to Jordan's curve theorem says that {\it if a compact set $K$ has two complementary domains in $R^{2}$, from each of which it is at every point accessible, it is a simple closed curve}. We show that the requirement of this…
