The purpose of this work is to classify, for given integers $m,\, n\geq 1$, the bordism class of a closed smooth $m$-manifold $X$ with a free smooth involution $\tau$ with respect to the validity of the {\it Borsuk-Ulam property} that for…

We construct an example announced in the title. It answers in a strong way a well-known open problem in topological dynamics. In fact our construction is an existence theorem. It is based on a Borsuk-Ulam type theorem whose proof heavily…

Let $G$ be a finite group with order $|G|=\ell$ and $2\leq q\leq \ell$. For a free $G$-space $X$, we introduce a notion of $q$-th index of $(X,G)$, denoted by $\text{ind}_q(X,G)$. Our concept is relevant in the Borsuk-Ulam theory. We draw…

In this paper we present a Kakutani type theorem that is equivalent to the Borsuk--Ulam theorem for manifolds.

For finite connected graphs $\Gamma$ and $G$, with $\Gamma$ admitting a free involution $\tau$, we characterize the based homotopy classes $\alpha\in[\Gamma,G]$ for which the Borsuk-Ulam property holds in the sense of Gon\c{c}alves, Guaschi…

For a finite group $H$ and connected topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ such that $X$ is endowed with a free left $H$-action $\tau$, we provide a geometric condition in terms of the existence of a commutative diagram of spaces (arising from the…

A generalization of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem to Stiefel manifolds is considered. This theorem is applied to derive bounds on $d$ that guarantee-for a given set of $m$ measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$-the existence of $k$ mutually orthogonal…

For each sapphire Sol $3$-manifold, we classify the free involutions. For each triple $(M, \tau; R^n)$ where $M$ is a sapphire Sol $3$-manifold and $\tau$ is a free involution, we show if $(M, \tau; R^n)$ has the Borsuk-Ulam property or…

These informal notes, not intended for publication, provide an approach to the Borsuk--Ulam theorem via Stokes' theorem, in a similar spirit to Lima's proof of the Brouwer fixed point theorem. They are intended to be accessible to anyone…

We compute the Nielsen-Borsuk-Ulam number for any selfmap of $n-$torus, $\mathbb{T}^n$, as well as any free involution $\tau$ in $\mathbb{T}^n$, with $n \leqslant 3$. Finally, we conclude that the tori, $\mathbb{T}^1$, $\mathbb{T}^2$ and…

We construct and study universal spaces for birational invariants of algebraic varieties over algebraic closures of finite fields.

Conjugation spaces are equipped with an involution such that the fixed points have the same mod 2 cohomology (as a graded vector space, a ring, and even an unstable algebra) but with all degrees divided by 2, generalizing the classical…

We give an essentially self-contained proof of Guth's recent endpoint multilinear Kakeya theorem which avoids the use of somewhat sophisticated algebraic topology, and which instead appeals to the Borsuk-Ulam theorem.

X. Huang et al. recently introduced the notion of generalised lush (GL) spaces, which, at least for separable spaces, is a generalisation of the concept of lushness introduced by K. Boyko et al. in 2007. The main result of Huang et al. is…

Let $H$ be the C*-algebra of a non-trivial compact quantum group acting freely on a unital C*-algebra $A$. It was recently conjectured that there does not exist an equivariant $*$-homomorphism from $A$ (type-I case) or $H$ (type-II case) to…

Natsume-Olsen noncommutative spheres are C*-algebras which generalize C(S^k) when k is odd. These algebras admit natural actions by finite cyclic groups, and if one of these actions is fixed, any equivariant homomorphism between two…

Let A be a finite abelian group. We set up an algebraic framework for studying A-equivariant complex-orientable cohomology theories in terms of a suitable kind of equivariant formal groups. We compute the equivariant cohomology of many…

For finite dimensional free $C_p$-spaces, the calculation of the Bredon cohomology ring as an algebra over the cohomology of $S^0$ is used to prove the non-existence of certain $C_p$-maps. These are related to Borsuk-Ulam type theorems, and…

Let $G$ be a group acting continuously on a space $X$ and let $X/G$ be its orbit space. Determining the topological or cohomological type of the orbit space $X/G$ is a classical problem in the theory of transformation groups. In this paper,…

In this paper, we address the longstanding question of whether expansive homeomorphisms can exist within convex bodies in Euclidean spaces. Utilizing fundamental tools from topology, including the Borsuk-Ulam theorem and Brouwer's…
