The colored Jones function of a knot is a sequence of Laurent polynomials in one variable, whose n-th term is the Jones polynomial of the knot colored with the n-dimensional irreducible representation of SL(2). It was recently shown by TTQ…

We construct certain non-degenerate maps and sets, mainly in the complex-analytic category. For example, we show that for every countable subset S in an irreducible complex space X there exists a holomorphic map from the unit disk to X such…

In this paper, we study some properties of $*-$open and $*-$closed subsets of a space. The collection of all $*-$open subsets of a space $X$ form a topology on $X$ which is denoted by $^{*}O(X)$. We investigate the relations between…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be topological spaces, let $Z$ be a metric space, and let $f: X\times Y\to Z$ be a mapping. It is shown that when $Y$ has a countable base $\mathcal B$, then under a rather general condition on the set-valued mappings $X\ni…

A clone on a set X is a set of finitary functions on X which contains the projections and which is closed under composition. The set of all clones on X forms a complete algebraic lattice Cl(X). We obtain several results on the structure of…

Given a non-degenerate Peano continuum $X$, a dimension function $D:2^X_*\to[0,\infty]$ defined on the family $2^X_*$ of compact subsets of $X$, and a subset $\Gamma\subset[0,\infty)$, we recognize the topological structure of the system…

We prove that if S is a set of functions from a set A to itself, S is closed under composition, and S contains all transpositions of A, then the action of S on Acan be recovered from the semigroup consisting of S together with its…

Let $X$ be a topological space and $f:X\to X$ a bijection. Let ${\mathcal C}(X,f)$ be a set of integers such that an integer $n$ is an element of ${\mathcal C}(X,f)$ if and only if the bijection $f^n:X\to X$ is continuous. A subset $S$ of…

Let X and Y be Banach spaces and F a subset of B_{Y^*}. Endow Y with the topology \tau_F of pointwise convergence on F. Let T: X^* \to Y be a bounded linear operator which is (w^*, \tau_F) continuous. Assume that every vector in the range…

A hyperbolic transcendental entire function with connected Fatou set is said to be "of disjoint type". It is known that a disjoint-type function provides a model for the dynamics near infinity of all maps in the same parameter space; hence…

A finite subset $M \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is basic, if for any function $f \colon M \to \mathbb{R}$ there exists a collection of functions $f_1, \ldots, f_d \colon \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ such that for each element $(x_1, \ldots, x_d)\in…

Let $X$ be a first countable Hausdorff topological group. The limit of a sequence in $X$ defines a function denoted by $lim$ from the set of all convergence sequences to $X$. This definition was modified by Connor and Grosse-Erdmann for…

We define a function by refining Stern's diatomic sequence. We name it the {\it assembly function}. It is strictly increasing continuous. The first and the second main theorems are on an action to the function. The third theorem is on…

For separable metrizable spaces $X,Y$ and a metrizable topological group $Z$ by $S(X\times Y,Z)$ we denote the space of all separately continuous functions $f:X\times Y\to Z$ endowed with the topology of layer-wise uniform convergence,…

To every regular category $\mathcal{A}$ equipped with a degree function $\delta$ one can attach a pseudo-abelian tensor category $\mathcal{T}(\mathcal{A},\delta)$. We show that the generating objects of $\mathcal{T}$ decompose canonically…

For a topological space $X$ we propose to call a subset $S \subset X$ "free in $X$" if it admits a well-ordering that turns it into a free sequence in $X$. The well-known cardinal function $F(X)$ is then definable as $\sup\{|S| : S \text{…

Let $(X,T)$ be a topological dynamical system and $\mu$ be a invariant measure, we show that $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu,T)$ is rigid if and only if there exists some subsequence $A$ of $\mathbb N$ such that $(X,T)$ is $\mu$-$A$-equicontinuous if…

We consider properties of the diagonal of a continuum that are used later in the paper. We continue the study of $T$-closed subsets of a continuum $X$. We prove that for a continuum $X$, the statements: $\Delta_X$ is a nonblock subcontinuum…

Certain objects of conformal field theory, for example partition functions on the rectangle and the torus, and one-point functions on the torus, are either invariant or transform simply under the modular group, properties which should be…

In this short note, we show that the distance function to any finite set $X\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a topological Morse function, regardless of whether $X$ is in general position. We also precisely characterize its topological critical…
