Projectivity and injectivity are fundamental notions in category theory. We consider natural weakenings termed semiprojectivity and semiinjectivity, and study these concepts in different categories. For example, in the category of metric…

This work is motivated by the following question in data-driven study of dynamical systems: given a dynamical system that is observed via time series of persistence diagrams that encode topological features of solutions snapshots, what…

Let $f$ be a piecewise continuous and monotonic map on the interval with at most finitely many discontinuities and turning points. In this paper we study properties about this class of maps and show its main difference from the continuous…

We show that the inverse limit and the orbit map commute for actions of compact groups on compact Hausdorff spaces.

This article reviews a generous sampling of both classical and more recent results on the interplay between measurable and topological dynamics. In the first part we have surveyed the strong analogies between ergodic theory and topological…

We survey recent results regarding the study of dynamical properties of the space of positive definite functions and characters of higher rank lattices. These results have several applications to ergodic theory, topological dynamics,…

Given a uniformly expanding transitive Markov interval map, we show that within the set of ergodic measures the set of nonadapted ergodic measures is residual in with respect to the topology induced by the $\overline{d}$-metric. This set of…

The group of rigid motions is considered to guide the search for a natural system of space-time coordinates in General Relativity. This search leads us to a natural extension of the space-times that support Painlev\'{e}--Gullstrand…

The class of O-metric spaces generalize several existing metric-types in literature including metric spaces, b-metric spaces, and ultra metric spaces. In this paper, we discuss the properties of the topology induced by an O-metric and…

In this paper, from the viewpoint of the concentration theory of maps, we study a compact group and a L\'{e}vy group action to a large class of metric spaces, such as R-trees, doubling spaces, metric graphs, and Hadamard manifolds.

It is introduced the concept of a quasi-king space, which is a natural generalisation of a king space. In the realm of suborderable spaces, king spaces are precisely the compact spaces, so are the quasi-king spaces. In contrast, quasi-king…

This paper examines various kinds of subspaces of the non-commutative spaces that are modelled on quasi-projective commutative schemes. It is shown how intersections and unions of weakly closed subspaces, closed subspaces, their weakly open…

We introduce the notion of strong embeddability for a metric space. This property lies between coarse embeddability and property A. A relative version of strong embeddability is developed in terms of a family of set maps on the metric…

In this article, we consider Kannan type contractive self-map $T$ on a metric space $(X,d)$ such that \[d(Tx,Ty)<\frac{1}{2}\{d(x,Tx)+d(y,Ty)\} \mbox{ for all } x \neq y \in X, \] and establish some new fixed point results without taking…

For the dynamics of a discontinuous map on a compact metric space, we describe an approach using suitable closed relations and connect it with the continuous dynamics on an invariant G-delta subset and with the continuous dynamics on the…

This survey is concerned with random walks on mapping class groups. We illustrate how the actions of mapping class groups on Teichm\"uller spaces or curve complexes reveal the nature of random walks, and vice versa. Our emphasis is on the…
