Decompositions on manifolds appear in various geometric structures. Necessary and sufficient conditions for quotient spaces of decompositions to be manifolds are widely characterized. We characterize necessary and sufficient conditions to…
This work investigates minimal parametric networks in hyperspaces of closed subsets of metric spaces endowed with the Hausdorff distance. It is shown that the problems of finding such networks are nontrivial only within finiteness classes,…
We describe the boundary of chaos separating regions of parameter space with positive topological entropy from those with zero topological entropy for a class of piecewise smooth maps. This coincides with the boundary of positive Hausdorff…
We prove the elementary but surprising fact that the Hofer distance between two closed subsets of a symplectic manifold can be expressed in terms of the restrictions of Hamiltonians to one of the subsets; this helps explain certain…
Let $K$ be a bounded convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$ symmetric about the origin. The critical locus of $K$ is defined to be the (non-empty compact) set of lattices $\Lambda$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ of smallest possible covolume such that $\Lambda…
In this note we look at the interdependences between James' theorem and the boundary problem. To do so we show a variant of James' sup-theorem for C(K)-spaces conjectured by Godefroy: in order to know that a bounded weakly closed subset of…
Distances between sets arise naturally when modeling stochastic dependence on collections of spatial supports, including settings with point-referenced and areal observations. However, commonly used constructions of distances on sets,…
A Hausdorff topological group is called minimal if it does not admit a strictly coarser Hausdorff group topology. This paper mostly deals with the topological group $H_+(X)$ of order-preserving homeomorphisms of a compact linearly ordered…
It is an interesting, maybe surprising, fact that different dense subspaces of even "nice" topological spaces can have different densities. So, our aim here is to investigate the set of densities of all dense subspaces of a topological…
Magill proved that the remainders of two locally compact Hausdorff spaces in their StoneCech compactifications are homeomorphic if and only if the lattices of their Hausdorff compactifications are lattice isomorphic. His construction for…
We introduce two notions of a contractive orbit of a set-valued map defined in a first countable space. The first defines the contraction with respect to the topology of the underlying space while the second defines the contraction with…
Local scaling of a set means that in a neighborhood of a point the structure of the set can be mapped into a finer scale structure of the set. These scaling transformations are compact sets of locally affine (that is: with uniformly…
We introduce the property of countable separation for a locally convex Hausdorff space $X$ and relate it to the existence of a metrizable coarser topology. Building on this, we demonstrate how the separability of $X$ is equivalent to the…
The primary objective of this work is to construct spaces that are "pseudocompact but not countably compact," abbreviated as PNC, while endowing them with additional properties. First, motivated by an old problem of van Douwen, we construct…
A cuf space (set, resp.) is a space (set, resp.) which is a countable union of finite subspaces (subsets, resp.). It is proved in $\mathbf{ZF}$ (with the absence of the axiom of choice) that all countable unions of cuf (denumerable, resp.)…
Often noisy point clouds are given as an approximation of a particular compact set of interest. A finite point cloud is a compact set. This paper proves a reconstruction theorem which gives a sufficient condition, as a bound on the…
We construct a ZFC example of a nonmetrizable compact space $K$ such that every totally disconnected closed subspace $L\subseteq K$ is metrizable. In fact, the construction can be arranged so that every nonmetrizable compact subspace may be…
We investigate compact Hausdorff foliations on compact Riemannian manifolds in the context of the Gromov-Hausdorff distance theory. We give some sufficient conditions for such foliations to be separated in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology.
We consider the question which compact metric spaces can be obtained as a Lipschitz image of the middle third Cantor set, or more generally, as a Lipschitz image of a subset of a given compact metric space. In the general case we prove that…
We first prove that for all compact metrizable spaces, there exists a topological embedding of the compact metrizable space into each of the sets of compact metric spaces which are connected, path-connected, geodesic, or CAT(0), in the…
