In this paper we investigate hereditarily normal topological groups and their subspaces. We prove that every compact subspace of a hereditarily normal topological group is metrizable. To prove this statement we first show that a…
Hedgehogs are geometrical objects that describe the Minkowski differences of arbitrary convex bodies in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^n$. We prove that two hedgehogs in $\mathbb{E}^n, n \geq 3$, coincide up to a translation and a…
We introduce and study some generalizations of regular spaces, which were motivated by studying continuity properties of functions between (regular) topological spaces. In particular, we prove that a first-countable Hausdorff topological…
We show that for any $k\in\omega$, the structure $(H_k,\in)$ of sets that are hereditarily of size at most $k$ is decidable. We provide a transparent complete axiomatization of its theory, a quantifier elimination result, and tight bounds…
We construct some new cohomology theories for topological groups and Lie groups and study some of its basic properties. For example, we introduce a cohomology theory based on measurable cochains which are continuous in a neighbourhood of…
We determine the structure of the Hodge ring, a natural object encoding the Hodge numbers of all compact Kaehler manifolds. As a consequence of this structure, there are no unexpected relations among the Hodge numbers, and no essential…
A well-known theorem of Kaplansky states that any projective module is a direct sum of countably generated modules. In this paper, we prove the $w$-version of this theorem, where $w$ is a hereditary torsion theory for modules over a…
Let $G$ be a topological group and let $\mu$ be the Lebesgue measure on the interval $[0,1]$. We let $L_0(G)$ to be the topological group of all $\mu$-equivalence classes of $\mu$-measurable functions defined on [0,1] with values in $G$,…
A topological gyrogroup is a gyrogroup endowed with a topology such that the binary operation is jointly continuous and the inverse mapping is also continuous. It is shown that each compact subset of a topological gyrogroup with an…
We introduce a new topological generalization of the $\sigma$-projective hierarchy, not limited to Polish spaces. Earlier attempts have replaced $^{\omega}\omega$ by $^{\kappa}\kappa$, for $\kappa$ regular uncountable, or replaced countable…
The main theorem of this article is that every countable model of set theory M, including every well-founded model, is isomorphic to a submodel of its own constructible universe. In other words, there is an embedding $j:M\to L^M$ that is…
We use techniques of tube-log Riemann surfaces due to R.Perez-Marco to construct a hedgehog containing smooth $C^{\infty}$ combs. The hedgehog is a common hedgehog for a family of commuting non-linearisable holomorphic maps with a common…
We introduce a class of convolutions on arithmetical functions that are regular in the sense of of Narkiewicz, homogeneous in the sense of Burnett et al, and bounded, in the sense that there exists a common finite bound for the rank of…
As complex networks find applications in a growing range of disciplines, the diversity of naturally occurring and model networks being studied is exploding. The adoption of a well-developed collection of network taxonomies is a natural…
This paper is devoted to an intrinsic geometrical classification of three-mirror telescopes. The problem is formulated as the study of the connected components of a semi-algebraic set. Under first order approximation, we give the general…
We introduce a topology on the space of all isomorphism types represented in a given class of countable models, and use this topology as an aid in classifying the isomorphism types. This mixes ideas from effective descriptive set theory and…
Phylogenetic networks are an important way to represent evolutionary histories that involve reticulations such as hybridization or horizontal gene transfer, yet fundamental questions such as how many networks there are that satisfy certain…
This paper investigates spaces equipped with a family of metric-like functions satisfying certain axioms. These functions provide a unified framework for defining topology, uniformity, and diffeology. The framework is based on a family of…
This paper studies Moore's measurable cohomology theory for locally compact groups and Polish modules. An elementary dimension-shifting argument is used to show that all classes in that theory have representatives with considerable extra…
We study the automorphism groups of countable homogeneous directed graphs (and some additional homogeneous structures) from the point of view of topological dynamics. We determine precisely which of these automorphism groups are amenable…
