We prove that a closed convex subset $C$ of a complete linear metric space $X$ is polyhedral in its closed linear hull if and only if no infinite subset $A\subset X\backslash C$ can be hidden behind $C$ in the sense $[x,y]\cap C\not =…

Locally compact separable metrizable spaces are characterized among all metrizable spaces as those that admit a cofinal sequence $K_1\subset K_2\subset\cdots$ of compact subsets. Their \v{C}ech cohomology is well-understood due to Petkova's…

We prove that a compact space is monotonically Sokolov if and only if it is monotonically $\omega$-monolithic. This gives answers to several questions of R. Rojas-Hernandez and V. V. Tkachuk.

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 prove that compact Hausdorff spaces with a $\mathbb{P}$-diagonal are metrizable.

We prove the existence and uniqueness of geometric models of local isometry classes of locally homogeneous spaces with sectional curvature $|\operatorname{sec}|\leq 1$. Moreover, we show that the set of geometric models is compact in the…

We give a new and elementary proof showing that a homeomorphism of a compact metric space is positively expansive if and only if the space is finite.

A topological space is almost locally compact if it contains a dense locally compact subspace. We generalize a result from \cite{Ma}, showing that isomorphism on Borel classes of almost locally compact Polish metric structures is always…

The main result of this article is: THEOREM. Every homogeneous locally conical connected separable metric space that is not a $1$-manifold is strongly $n$-homogeneous for each $n \geq 2$ and countable dense homogeneous. Furthermore,…

We state that any constant curvature Riemannian metric with conical singularities of constant sign curvature on a compact (orientable) surface $S$ can be realized as a convex polyhedron in a Riemannian or Lorentzian) space-form. Moreover…

In this paper, we investigate Kondratiev spaces on domains of polyhedral type. In particular, we will be concerned with necessary and sufficient conditions for continuous and compact embeddings, and in addition we shall deal with pointwise…

We construct compact polyhedra with $m$-gonal faces whose links are generalized 3-gons. It gives examples of cocompact hyperbolic bildings of type $P(m,3)$. For $m=3$ we get compact spaces covered by Euclidean buildings of type $A_2$.

We prove a characterization for BLD-mappings between locally complete locally compact path-metric spaces. As a corollary we obtain a sharp limit theorem for BLD-mappings.

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 prove that every length on a simple group over a locally compact field, is either bounded or proper.

In this note we show that a connected, closed and locally convex subset (with an extra assumption on the diameter with respect to the induced length metric if $\kappa>0$) of a $CAT(\kappa)$ space is convex.

We show that compact locally symmetric Lorentz manifolds are geodesically complete.

In a previous work arXiv:physics/0611108v2, it was shown that the volume spanned by a molecular system in its conformational space can be effectively bounded by a polyhedral cone, this cone is described by means of a simple combinatorial…

We extend a theorem by Kleiner, stating that on a group with polynomial growth, the space of harmonic functions of polynomial of at most $k$ is finite dimensional, to the settings of locally compact groups equipped with measures with…

A sphere packing of the three-dimensional Euclidean space is compact if it has only tetrahedral holes, that is, any local maximum of the distance to the spheres is at equal distance to exactly four spheres. This papers describes all the…
