We investigate the geometry of the family $\cal M$ of isometry classes of compact metric spaces, endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff metric. We show that sufficiently small neighborhoods of generic finite spaces in the subspace of all finite…

For every topological group G one can define the universal minimal compact G-space X=M_G characterized by the following properties: (1) X has no proper closed G-invariant subsets; (2) for every compact G-space Y there exists a G-map X-->Y.…

We continue our study of the dynamics of meromorphic mappings with small topological degree on a compact K\"ahler surface $X$. Under general hypotheses we are able to construct a canonical invariant measure which is mixing, does not charge…

We investigate a relations of almost isometric embedding and almost isometry between metric spaces and prove that with respect to these relations: (1) There is a countable universal metric space. (2) There may exist fewer than continuum…

For maps from $S^3$ and $\RP^3$ into $S^2$ and $\RP^2$, we study the problem of minimizing the root set by deforming the maps through homotopies. After presenting the classification of the homotopy classes of such maps, we prove that the…

We study the topology of metric spaces which are definable in o-minimal expansions of ordered fields. We show that a definable metric space either contains an infinite definable discrete set or is definably homeomorphic to a definable set…

In this paper, we give definitions of three kinds of minimal charts, and we investigate properties of minimal charts and establish fundamental theorems characterizing minimal charts. To classify charts with two or three crossings we use the…

We prove that any minimal $2$-torus homeomorphism which is isotopic to the identity and whose rotation set is not just a point exhibits uniformly bounded rotational deviations on the perpendicular direction to the rotation set. As a…

For any continuous self-map of a compact metric space, we provide sufficient conditions under which the infinite direct product of the map is $\omega$-chaotic. We also apply the result to obtain some examples of unusual $\omega$-chaotic…

We show that $C(X)$ admits an equivalent pointwise lower semicontinuous locally uniformly rotund norm provided $X$ is Fedorchuk compact of spectral height 3. In other words $X$ admits a fully closed map $f$ onto a metric compact $Y$ such…

We show that for any connected smooth manifold $M$ of dimension different from $3$ the restriction of the compact-open topology to the diffeomorphism group of $M$ is minimal, i.e. the group does not admit a strictly coarser Hausdorff group…

In this work, we consider the model of $\mathbb{S}^2\times\mathbb{R}$ isometric to $\mathbb{R}^3\setminus \{0\}$, endowed with a metric conformally equivalent to the Euclidean metric of $\mathbb{R}^3$, and we define a Gauss map for surfaces…

A convex subset X of a linear topological space is called compactly convex if there is a continuous compact-valued map $\Phi:X\to exp(X)$ such that $[x,y]\subset\Phi(x)\cup \Phi(y)$ for all $x,y\in X$. We prove that each convex subset of…

It is shown that for a map $f \colon X \to Y$ of compact spaces the unital $\ast$-homomorphism $C(f) \colon C(Y) \to C(X)$ is projective in the category $\operatorname{Mor}({\mathcal C}^{1})$ precisely when $X$ is a dendrite and $f$ is…

In analogy with classical submanifold theory, we introduce morphisms of real metric calculi together with noncommutative embeddings. We show that basic concepts, such as the second fundamental form and the Weingarten map, translate into the…

We show that every complete metric space is homeomorphic to the precise locus of zeros of an entire analytic map from a Hilbert space to a Banach space. As a corollary, every complete separable metric space is homeomorphic to the precise…

A linear map between matrix spaces is positive if it maps positive semidefinite matrices to positive semidefinite ones, and is called completely positive if all its ampliations are positive. In this article quantitative bounds on the…

We consider definable topological spaces of dimension one in o-minimal structures, and state several equivalent conditions for when such a topological space $\left(X,\tau\right)$ is definably homeomorphic to an affine definable space…

Given a compact metric space $X$, we associate to it an inverse sequence of finite $T_0$ topological spaces. The inverse limit of this inverse sequence contains a homeomorphic copy of $X$ that is a strong deformation retract. We provide a…

H-holomorphic maps are a parameter version of J-holomorphic maps into contact manifolds. They have arisen in efforts to prove the existence of higher--genus holomorphic open book decompositions and efforts to prove the existence of finite…
