In the context of classical associations between classes of Banach spaces and classes of compact Hausdorff spaces we survey known results and open questions concerning the existence and nonexistence of universal Banach spaces and of…

We already saw in [A1] that the space of dynamically marked rational maps can be identified to a subspace of the space of covers between trees of spheres on which there is a notion of convergence that makes it sequentially compact. In the…

We obtain some classification result for the mapping class groups of compact orientable surfaces in terms of measure equivalence. In particular, the mapping class groups of different closed surfaces can not be measure equivalent. Moreover,…

We show that there are locally compact spaces that can be condensed onto separable spaces but not onto compact separable spaces. We also show that for every cardinal $\kappa$ there is a locally compact topological group of cardinality…

Let $M=I$ or $M=\mathbb{S}^1$ and let $k\geq 1$. We exhibit a new infinite class of Polish groups by showing that each group $\mathop{\rm Diff}_+^{k+AC}(M)$, consisting of those $C^k$ diffeomorphisms whose $k$-th derivative is absolutely…

We develop a simple method of constructing topological spaces from countable posets with finite levels, one which applies to all second countable T_1 compacta. This results in a duality amenable to building such spaces from finite building…

We consider infinite graphs and the associated energy forms. We show that a graph is canonically compactifiable (i.e. all functions of finite energy are bounded) if and only if the underlying set is totally bounded with respect to any…

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 show that there are uncountably many countable lattices. We give a discussion of which such lattices can be modular or distributive. The method applies to show that certain other classes of structures also have uncountably many…

We argue that there are two distinct classes of type I compactification to four dimensions on any space. These two classes are distinguished in a mysterious way by the presence (or absence) of a discrete 6-form potential. In simple…

We study the complexity of isomorphism of classes of metric structures using methods from infinitary continuous logic. For Borel classes of locally compact structures, we prove that if the equivalence relation of isomorphism is potentially…

In this paper, some features of countably $\alpha$-compact topological spaces are presented and proven. The connection between countably $\alpha$% -compact, Tychonoff, and $\alpha$-Hausdorff spaces is explained. The space is countably…

We consider (compact or noncompact) Lorentzian manifolds whose holonomy group has compact closure. Among other results, we obtain that this property is equivalent to admitting a parallel timelike vector field. We also derive some properties…

We discuss some notions of compactness and convergence relative to a specified family F of subsets of some topological space X. The two most interesting particular cases of our construction appear to be the following ones. (1) The case in…

Simplicial arrangements are classical objects in discrete geometry. Their classification remains an open problem but there is a list conjectured to be complete at least for rank three. A further important class in the theory of hyperplane…

For a separable locally compact but not compact metrizable space $X$, let $\alpha X = X \cup \{x_\infty\}$ be the one-point compactification with the point at infinity $x_\infty$. We denote by $EM(X)$ the space consisting of admissible…

In this paper, we determine the descriptive complexity of subsets of the Polish space of marked groups defined by various group theoretic properties. In particular, using Grigorchuk groups, we establish that the sets of solvable groups,…

The aim of this paper is to introduce the concept of Delta-Compact spaces along with some basic properties of it. Here, we try to establish the behavior of Delta-Compact spaces under the continuous mapping. Finally, we define another…

We discuss some well-known compactness principles for uncountable structures of small regular sizes ($\omega_n$ for $2 \le n<\omega$, $\aleph_{\omega+1}$, $\aleph_{\omega^2+1}$, etc.), consistent from weakly compact (the size-restricted…

We consider polyhedral approximations of strictly convex compacta in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces (such compacta are also uniformly convex). We obtain the best possible estimates for errors of considered approximations in the…
