A topology on a nonempty set $X$ specifies a natural subset of $\mathcal{P}(X)$. By identifying $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{P}(X))$ with the totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space $2^{\mathcal{P}(X)}$, the lattice $Top(X)$ of all topologies…

Faulty networks are useful because link or node faults can occur in a network. This paper examines the Hamiltonian properties of hypercubes under certain conditional faulty edges. Let consider the hypercube \( Q_n \), for \( n \geq 5 \) and…

The $W_v$-Path Conjecture due to Klee and Wolfe states that any two vertices of a simple polytope can be joined by a path that does not revisit any facet. This is equivalent to the well-known Hirsch Conjecture. Klee proved that the…

A theorem of Tietze and Nakamija, from 1928, asserts that if a subset X of R^n is closed, connected, and locally convex, then it is convex. We give an analogous "local to global convexity" theorem when the inclusion map of X to R^n is…

In this paper we consider the hyperspace $C_{n}(X)$ of non-empty and closed subsets of a base space $X$ with up to $n$ connected components. We consider a class of base spaces called finite ray-graphs, which are a noncompact variation on…

Hart and Kunen, and independently in the recent preprint arXiv:2304.13113, R\'ios-Herrej\'on defined and studied the class $C({\omega}_1)$ of topological spaces $X$ having the property that for every neighborhood assignment $\{U(y) : y \in…

Let $(X,p)$ be a Ricci limit space. We show that for any $\epsilon > 0$ and $x \in X$, there exists $r< \epsilon$, depending on $\epsilon$ and $x$, so that any loop in $B_{r}(x)$ is contractible in $B_{\epsilon}(x)$. In particular, $X$ is…

We construct a locally compact Hausdorff topology on the path space of a directed graph $E$, and identify its boundary-path space $\partial E$ as the spectrum of a commutative $C^*$-subalgebra $D_E$ of $C^*(E)$. We then show that $\partial…

Connectedness, path connectedness, and uniform connectedness are well-known concepts. In the traditional presentation of these concepts there is a substantial difference between connectedness and the other two notions, namely connectedness…

The KC property, a separation axiom between weakly Hausdorff and Hausdorff, requires compact subsets to be closed. Various assumptions involving local conditions, dimension, connectivity, and homotopy show certain KC-spaces are in fact…

In this note, we show that the space of all $\varepsilon$-nets in the real line $\mathbb{R}$ with a natural metric, equipped with either Hausdorff or Gromov--Hausdorff distance, is contractible.

In order to apply variational methods to the action functional for geodesics of a stationary spacetime, some hypotheses, useful to obtain classical Palais-Smale condition, are commonly used: pseudo-coercivity, bounds on certain coefficients…

The research in the present paper was motivated by the conjecture of Ryj\'{a}\v{c}ek that every locally connected graph is weakly pancyclic. For a connected locally connected graph $G$ of order at least $3$, our results are as follows: If…

A topological space is nonseparably connected if it is connected but all of its connected separable subspaces are singletons. We show that each connected first countable space is the image of a nonseparably connected complete metric space…

Let X be a complex projective variety of dimension n with only isolated normal singularities. In this paper we prove, using mixed Hodge theory, that if the link of each singular point of X is (n-2)-connected, then X is a formal topological…

For a topological space $X$ and an ideal $\mathscr{H}$ of subsets of $X$ we introduce the notion of connectedness modulo $\mathscr{H}$. This notion of connectedness naturally generalizes the notion of connectedness in its usual sense. In…

In our earlier papers we constructed examples of 2-dimensional nonaspherical simply-connected cell-like Peano continua, called {\sl Snake space}. In the sequel we introduced the functor $SC(-,-)$ defined on the category of all spaces with…

Given a connected, compact, totally geodesic submanifold Y^m of noncompact type inside a compact locally symmetric space of noncompact type X^n, we provide a sufficient condition that ensures that [Y^m] is nonzero in H_m(X^n; R); in low…

It is shown that the hyperspace of all nonempty closed subsets $\Cld_{AW}(X)$ of a separable metric space $X$ endowed with the Attouch-Wets topology is homeomorphic to a separable Hilbert space if and only if the completion of $X$ is…

Let $G$ be the group of orientation-preserving isometries of a rank-one symmetric space $X$ of non-compact type. We study local rigidity of certain actions of a solvable subgroup $\Gamma \subset G$ on the boundary of $X$, which is…
