We consider rigidity properties of compact symmetric spaces $X$ with metric $g_0$ of rank one. Suppose $g$ is another Riemannian metric on $X$ with sectional curvature $\kappa$ bounded by $0 \leq \kappa \leq 1$. If $g$ equals $g_0$ outside…

Building on the work of Avraham, Rubin, and Shelah, we aim to build a variant of the Fra\"iss\'e theory for uncountable models built from finite submodels. With this aim, we generalize the notion of an increasing set of reals to other…

Completeness for a (topological) space is often based on the existence of special structures (such as metrics, uniformities, proximities, convergences, etc) that explicitly induce the topology, making the completeness induction-dependent.…

We consider Banach spaces $X$ that can be linearly lifted into their Lipschitz-free spaces $\mathcal{F}(X)$ and, for a group $G$ acting on $X$ by linear isometries, we study the possible existence of $G$-equivariant linear liftings. In…

We prove that the positive mass theorem applies to Lipschitz metrics as long as the singular set is low-dimensional, with no other conditions on the singular set. More precisely, let $g$ be an asymptotically flat Lipschitz metric on a…

We obtain two in a sense dual to each other results: First, that the capacity dimension of every compact, locally self-similar metric space coincides with the topological dimension, and second, that the asymptotic dimension of a metric…

In the absence of the axiom of choice, the set-theoretic status of many natural statements about metrizable compact spaces is investigated. Some of the statements are provable in $\mathbf{ZF}$, some are shown to be independent of…

For a metrizable space $X$ and a finite measure space $(\Omega,\mathfrak{M},\mu)$ let $M_{\mu}(X)$ and $M^f_{\mu}(X)$ be the spaces of all equivalence classes (under the relation of equality almost everywhere mod $\mu$) of…

We study the problem of existence of preduals of locally convex Hausdorff spaces. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a predual with certain properties of a bornological locally convex Hausdorff space $X$.…

Let $M$ be a compact 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature and a nonempty boundary $\partial M$. Fraser and Li \cite{Fraser&Li} established a compactness theorem for the space of compact, properly embedded…

We specify a result of Yokoi \cite{yo} by proving that if $G$ is an abelian group and $X$ is a homogeneous metric $ANR$ compactum with $\dim_GX=n$ and $\check{H}^n(X;G)\neq 0$, then $X$ is an $(n,G)$-bubble. This implies that any such space…

Given a Tychonoff space $X$, let $\varrho(X)$ be the set of remote points of $X$. We view $\varrho(X)$ as a topological space. In this paper we assume that $X$ is metrizable and ask for conditions on $Y$ so that $\varrho(X)$ is homeomorphic…

A Hausdorff topological group $(G,\tau)$ is called locally minimal if there exists a neighborhood $U$ of 0 in $\tau$ such that $U$ fails to be a neighborhood of zero in any Hausdorff group topology on $G$ which is strictly coarser than…

A topological space $X$ has the strong Pytkeev property at a point $x\in X$ if there exists a countable family $\mathcal N$ of subsets of $X$ such that for each neighborhood $O_x\subset X$ and subset $A\subset X$ accumulating at $x$, there…

Schweizer, Sklar and Thorp proved in 1960 that a Menger space $(G,D,T)$ under a continuous $t$-norm $T$, induce a natural topology $\tau$ wich is metrizable. We extend this result to any probabilistic metric space $(G,D,\star)$ provided…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This paper is concerned with the set of scalar-flat metrics which are in the conformal class of g and have the boundary as a constant mean curvature hypersurface. We prove that this…

Three themes of general topology: quotient spaces; absolute retracts; and inverse limits - are reapproached here in the setting of metrizable uniform spaces, with an eye to applications in geometric and algebraic topology. The results…

When does a topological group $G$ have a Hausdorff compactification $bG$ with a remainder belonging to a given class of spaces? In this paper, we mainly improve some results of A.V. Arhangel'ski\v{\i} and C. Liu's. Let $G$ be a non-locally…

Let ${\mathcal G}$ be a locally compact group. In continuation of our studies on the first and second duals of measure algebras by the use of the theory of generalised functions, here we study the C$^*$-subalgebra $GL_0({\mathcal G})$ of…

The paper deals with Ascoli spaces $C_p(X)$ and $C_k(X)$ over Tychonoff spaces $X$. The class of Ascoli spaces $X$, i.e. spaces $X$ for which any compact subset $K$ of $C_k(X)$ is evenly continuous, essentially includes the class of…
