We consider the space of countable structures with fixed underlying set in a given countable language. We show that the number of ergodic probability measures on this space that are $S_\infty$-invariant and concentrated on a single…

We present a systematic approach to the problem whether a topologically infinite-dimensional space can be made homogeneous in the Coifman--Weiss sense. The answer to the examined question is negative, as expected. Our leading representative…

Given any weak Perron number $\lambda$, we construct an end-periodic homeomorphism $f:\Sigma\rightarrow \Sigma$ with Handel-Miller stretch factor equal to $\lambda$ where $\Sigma$ is a connected infinite-type surface with finitely many ends…

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…

Using ideas from shape theory we embed the coarse category of metric spaces into the category of direct sequences of simplicial complexes with bonding maps being simplicial. Two direct sequences of simplicial complexes are equivalent if one…

A topological space ${\mathcal X}$ is reversible iff each continuous bijection (condensation) $f: {\mathcal X} \rightarrow {\mathcal X}$ is a homeomorphism; weakly reversible iff whenever ${\mathcal Y}$ is a space and there are…

We investigate connections between resolvability and different forms of tightness. This study is adjacent to [1,2]. We construct a non-regular refinement $\tau^*$ of the natural topology of the real line $\mathbb{R}$ with properties such…

For metrizable spaces we replace the notion of almost periodic homeomorphism with a similar notion and verify that the usual characterizations of almost periodic homeomorphisms of compact metric spaces are valid for all metrizable spaces.

We give an example of an infinite metrizable space $X$ such that the space $C_p(X)$, of continuous real-valued function on $X$ endowed with the pointwise topology, is not homeomorphic to its own square $C_p(X)\times C_p(X)$. The space $X$…

New partial results are obtained related to the following old problem of Erd\"os: for any infinite set $X$ of real numbers to show that there is always a measurable (or, equivalently, closed) subset of reals of positive Lebesgue measure…

We give a permutation model in which Stone's Theorem (every metric space is paracompact) is false and the Boolean Prime Ideal Theorem (every ideal in a Boolean algebra extends to a prime ideal) is true. The erring metric space in our model…

We give examples of infinitely extendable (not as cones) arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay and arithmetically Gorenstein subvarieties of projective spaces and which are not complete intersections. The proof uses the computation of the dimension…

We develop a theory of measures, differential forms and Fourier tramsforms on some infinite-dimensional real vector spaces by generalizing the following two constructions: (a) The construction of the semiinfinite wedge power of a Tate…

In this paper we introduce and study so-called $k^*$-metrizable spaces forming a new class of generalized metric spaces, and display various applications of such spaces in topological algebra, functional analysis, and measure theory. By…

Starting from an inaccessible cardinal, we construct a model of $ZF+DC$ where there exists a mad family and all sets of reals are $\mathbb Q$-measurable for $\omega^{\omega}$-bounding sufficiently absolute forcing notions $\mathbb Q$.

This paper investigates the Hausdorff measure of certain sets of generics in computability theory. Let $\Gamma$ be the Turing ideal in which we take the dense open sets. The set of $\Gamma$-Cohen generics has measure positive if and only if…

We first give a relative flexible process to construct torsion cohomology classes for Shimura varieties of Kottwitz-Harris-Taylor type with coefficient in a non too regular local system. We then prove that associated to each torsion…

This article initiates the study of topological transcendental fields $\FF$ which are subfields of the topological field $\CC$ of all complex numbers such that $\FF$ consists of only rational numbers and a nonempty set of transcendental…

We present mixing ergodic automorphisms of a space with sigma-finite measure whose symmetric tensor squares have simple spectra. This property is of interest in connection with dynamical spectral problems of A.N. Kolmogorov and V.A.…

We prove that, for every n, the topological space {\omega}_n^{\omega} (where {\omega}_n has the discrete topology) can be partitioned into {\omega}_n copies of the Baire space. Using this fact, the authors then prove two new theorems about…
