Let X be a zero-dimensional compact space such that all non-empty clopen subsets of X are homeomorphic to each other, and let H(X) be the group of all self-homeomorphisms of X with the compact-open topology. We prove that the Roelcke…

Using the property of being completely Baire, countable dense homogeneity and the perfect set property we will be able, under Martin's Axiom for countable posets, to distinguish non-principal ultrafilters on $\omega$ up to homeomorphism.…

For all $n \geq 2$, we construct a metric space $(X,d)$ and a quasisymmetric mapping $f\colon [0,1]^n \rightarrow X$ with the property that $f^{-1}$ is not absolutely continuous with respect to the Hausdorff $n$-measure on $X$. That is,…

In the simplicial theory of hypercoverings, we replace the indexing category $\Delta$ by the \emph{symmetric simplicial category} $\Delta S$ and study (a class of) $\Delta S$-hypercoverings, which we call \emph{spaces admitting symmetric…

We show that every non-degenerate homogeneous plane continuum is homeomorphic to either the unit circle, the pseudo-arc, or the circle of pseudo-arcs. It follows that any planar homogenous compactum has the form $X \times Z$, where $X$ is a…

The first goal of this paper is to give a short description of the planar bi-Sobolev homeomorphisms, providing simple and self-contained proofs for some already known properties. In particular, for any such homeomorphism $u:\Omega\to…

We describe an explicit semi-algebraic partition for the complement of a real hyperplane arrangement such that each piece is contractible and so that the pieces form a basis of Borel-Moore homology. We also give an explicit correspondence…

Suppose $L$ is a semisimple Levi subgroup of a connected Lie group~$G$, $X$ is a Borel $G$-space with finite invariant measure, and $\alpha \colon X \times G \to \GL_n(\real)$ is a Borel cocycle. Assume $L$ has finite center, and that the…

We introduce the natural and fairly general notion of a subanalytic bundle (with a finite dimensional vector space $P$ of sections) on a subanalytic subset $X$ of a real analytic manifold $M$, and prove that when $M$ is compact, there is a…

A monomial algebra B is defined as a quotient of a polynomial ring by a monomial ideal, which is an ideal generated by a finite set of monomials. In this paper, we determine the automorphism group of a monomial algebra B, under the…

Under Jensen's Diamond Principle, we show how to construct a large compact S-space while having some control over its group of autohomeomorphisms. In particular we can make the space rigid or h-homogeneous (i.e. any two clopen subsets are…

In the present paper, the Lindelof number and the degree of compactness of spaces and of the cozero-dimensional kernel of paracompact spaces are characterized in terms of selections of lower semi-continuous closed-valued mappings into…

Let $K\backslash G$ be an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of noncompact type and $\Gamma \,\subset\, G$ a closed torsionfree discrete subgroup. Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and $\rho\, :\, \pi_1(X, x_0)\,\longrightarrow\,…

We give a proof that every space of weighted square-integrable holomorphic functions admits an equivalent weight whose Bergman kernel has zeroes. Here the weights are equivalent in the sense that they determine the same space of holomorphic…

It follows implicitly from recent work in Heegaard Floer theory that lens spaces are homology cobordant exactly when they are oriented homeomorphic. We provide a new combinatorial proof using the Heegaard Floer d-invariants, which…

We use the reflection group trick to glue manifolds with corners that are Borel-Serre compactifications of locally symmetric spaces of noncompact type and obtain aspherical manifolds. We call these \emph{piecewise locally symmetric}…

We prove that each non-separable completely metrizable convex subset of a Frechet space is homeomorphic to a Hilbert space. This resolves an old (more than 30 years) problem of infinite-dimensional topology. Combined with the topological…

We show that if a separable space X has a meager open subset containing a copy of the Cantor set 2^\omega, then X has $\frak{c}$ types of countable dense subsets. We suggest a generalization of the \lambda-set for non-separable spaces. Let…

We study locally compact metric spaces that enjoy various forms of homogeneity with respect to M\"obius self-homeomorphisms. We investigate connections between such homogeneity and the combination of isometric homogeneity with…

Popa and Schnell show that any holomorphic 1-form on a smooth projective variety of general type has zeros. In this article, we show that a smooth good minimal model has a holomorphic 1-form without zero if and only if it admits an analytic…
