It is shown that if a non-invertible area preserving local homeomorphism on $\mathbb{T}^2$ is homotopic to a linear expanding or hyperbolic endomorphism, then it must be topologically transitive. This gives a complete characterization, in…

A space is od-compact (resp. od-Lindel\"of) provided any cover by open dense sets has a finite (resp. countable) subcover. We first show with simple examples that these properties behave quite poorly under finite or countable unions. We…

We improve some results of Pavlov and of Filatova, respectively, concerning a problem of Malychin by showing that every regular space X that satisfies Delta(X)>ext(X) is omega-resolvable. Here Delta(X), the dispersion character of X, is the…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and $\mathcal M_X$ be the set of isometry classes of compact metric spaces $Y$ such that the Lipschitz distance $d_L(X,Y)$ is finite. We show that $(\mathcal M_X, d_L)$ is not separable when $X$ is a closed…

Let $X$ be an infinite compact metric space with finite covering dimension and let $\alpha, \beta : X\to X$ be two minimal homeomorphisms. We prove that the crossed product $C^*$-algebras $C(X)\rtimes_\alpha\Z$ and $C(X)\rtimes_\belta\Z$…

We isolate a new large cardinal concept, "remarkability." Consistencywise, remarkable cardinals are between ineffable and omega-Erdos cardinals. They are characterized by the existence of "0^sharp-like" embeddings; however, they relativize…

Let X be a G-space such that the orbit space X/G is metrizable. Suppose a family of slices is given at each point of X. We study a construction which associates, under some conditions on the family of slices, with any metric on X/G an…

Collapsibility is a combinatorial strengthening of contractibility. We relate this property to metric geometry by proving the collapsibility of any complex that is CAT(0) with a metric for which all vertex stars are convex. This strengthens…

Let K be an abstract elementary classes which has arbitrarily large models and satisfies the amalgamation and joint embedding properties. Theorem 1. Suppose K is \chi-tame. If K is categorical in some \lambda^+ >LS(K) then it is categorical…

Any unital separable continuous C(X)-algebra with properly infinite fibres is properly infinite as soon as the compact Hausdorff space X has finite topological dimension. We study conditions under which this is still the case in the…

Let $(\mathcal{K} ,\subseteq )$ be a universal class with $LS(\mathcal{K})=\lambda$ categorical in regular $\kappa >\lambda^+$ with arbitrarily large models, and let $\mathcal{K}^*$ be the class of all $\mathcal{A}\in\mathcal{K}_{>\lambda}$…

Let $\kappa$ be any regular cardinal. Assuming the existence of a huge cardinal above $\kappa$, we prove the consistency of $\binom{\kappa^{++}}{\kappa^+}\rightarrow\binom{\tau}{\kappa^+}$ for every ordinal $\tau<\kappa^{++}$. Likewise, we…

Given any $\lambda\leq\kappa$, we construct a symmetric extension in which there is a set $X$ such that $\aleph(X)=\lambda$ and $\aleph^*(X)=\kappa$. Consequently, we show that $\mathsf{ZF}+$"For all pairs of infinite cardinals…

Let X be a complex manifold of dimension 2, which admits a strictly plurisubharmonic function r which is proper as a function with values in the intervall ]inf r, sup r[. We prove that the concave end of X can be compactified, if and only…

One can embed arbitrarily many disjoint, non-parallel, non-boundary parallel, incompressible surfaces in any three manifold with at least one boundary component of genus two or greater [4]. This paper proves the contrasting, but not…

In this paper we show that any smoothable complex projective variety, smooth in codimension two, with klt singularities and numerically trivial canonical class admits a finite cover, \'etale in codimension one, that decomposes as a product…

Let $j$ be an elementary embedding of $V_{\lambda}$ into $V_{\lambda}$ that is not the identity, and let $\kappa$ be the critical point of $j$. Let $\Cal A$ be the closure of $\{j\}$ under the operation $a (b)$ of application, and let…

We continue the study of computable embeddings for pairs of structures, i.e. for classes containing precisely two non-isomorphic structures. Surprisingly, even for some pairs of simple linear orders, computable embeddings induce a…

We complete the classification, up to isomorphism, of the spaces of compact operators on C([1, gamma], l_p) spaces, 1<p< infinity. In order to do this, we classify, up to isomorphism, the spaces of compact operators {\mathcal K}(E, F),…

For an infinite cardinal $\kappa$ let $\ell_2(\kappa)$ be the linear hull of the standard othonormal base of the Hilbert space $\ell_2(\kappa)$ of density $\kappa$. We prove that a non-separable convex subset $X$ of density $\kappa$ in a…
