We consider reachability decision problems for linear dynamical systems: Given a linear map on $\mathbb{R}^d$ , together with source and target sets, determine whether there is a point in the source set whose orbit, obtained by repeatedly…

We prove that Hilbert space is distortable and, in fact, arbitrarily distortable. This means that for all lambda >1 there exists an equivalent norm |.| on l_2 such that for all infinite dimensional subspaces Y of l_2 there exist x,y in Y…

The problem of approximating the infinite dimensional space of all continuous maps from an algebraic variety $X$ to an algebraic variety $Y$ by finite dimensional spaces of algebraic maps arises in several areas of geometry and mathematical…

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…

If $f:[a,b]\to \mathbb{R}$, with $a<b$, is continuous and such that $a$ and $b$ are mapped in opposite directions by $f$, then $f$ has a fixed point in $I$. Suppose that $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ is map and $X$ is a continuum. We extend…

Assume that all spaces and maps are localised at a fixed prime $p$. We study the possibility of generating a universal space $U(X)$ from a space $X$ which is universal in the category of homotopy associative, homotopy commutative H-spaces…

Let X be a compact nonsingular real algebraic variety. We prove that if a continuous map from X into the unit p-sphere is homotopic to a continuous rational map, then, under certain assumptions, it can be approximated in the compact-open…

The problem of bi-equivariant extension of continuous maps of binary $G$-spaces is considered. The concept of a structural map of distributive binary $G$-spaces is introduced, and a theorem on the bi-equivariant extension of structural maps…

Given $n$ distinct points $\mathbf{x}_1, \ldots, \mathbf{x}_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, let $K$ denote their convex hull, which we assume to be $d$-dimensional, and $B = \partial K $ its $(d-1)$-dimensional boundary. We construct an explicit…
