Let $\mathcal C$ be a class of topological semigroups. A semigroup $X$ is $injectively$ $\mathcal C$-$closed$ if $X$ is closed in each topological semigroup $Y\in\mathcal C$ containing $X$ as a subsemigroup. Let $\mathsf{T_{\!2}S}$ (resp.…

Let $\mathfrak{X}$ be a class of finite groups closed under subgroups, homomorphic images, and extensions. We study the question which goes back to the lectures of H. Wielandt in 1963-64: For a given $\mathfrak{X}$-subgroup $K$ and maximal…

We prove that a set of finite perimeter is indecomposable if and only if it is, up to a choice of suitable representative, connected in the 1-fine topology. This gives a topological characterization of indecomposability which is new even in…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p > 0$. We consider connected reductive subgroups $X$ of $G$ that contain a given distinguished unipotent element $u$ of $G$. A result of…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of the universe, induced communities, and cells with their corresponding spots. Using this language, we formulate and prove the union close set conjecture by showing that for any finite universe…

We consider two disjoint sets of points. If at least one of the sets can be embedded into an Euclidean space, then we provide sufficient conditions for the two sets to be jointly embedded in one Euclidean space. In this joint Euclidean…

The Connes Embedding Problem (CEP) asks whether every separable II_1 factor embeds into an ultrapower of the hyperfinite II_1 factor. We show that the CEP is equivalent to the computability of the universal theory of every type II_1 von…

If $X$ is a compact set, a {\it topological contraction} is a self-embedding $f$ such that the intersection of the successive images $f^k(X)$, $k>0$, consists of one point. In dimension 3, we prove that there are smooth topological…

It is shown that if a $T_2$ topological space contains an uncountable closed discrete set, then $\omega_1 \times (\omega_1 + 1)$ embeds as a closed subspace of $(CL(X),\tau_F)$, the hyperspace of nonempty closed subsets of $X$ equipped with…

A closed algebraic embedding of $\mathbb{C}^*=\mathbb{C}^1\setminus\{0\}$ into $\mathbb{C}^2$ is 'sporadic' if for every curve $A\subseteq \mathbb{C}^2$ isomorphic to an affine line the intersection with $\mathbb{C}^*$ is at least $2$.…

Let $X$ be a completely regular topological space. We study closed ideals $H$ of $C_B(X)$, the normed algebra of bounded continuous scalar-valued mappings on $X$ equipped with pointwise addition and multiplication and the supremum norm,…

Two subsets $A, B$ of the plane are betweenness isomorphic if there is a bijection $f\colon A\to B$ such that, for every $x,y,z\in A$, the point $f(z)$ lies on the line segment connecting $f(x)$ and $f(y)$ if and only if $z$ lies on the…

Let $\Lambda X$ be the free loop space on a simply connected finite $CW$-complex $X$ and $\beta_{i}(\Lambda X;\Bbbk)$ be the cardinality of a minimal generating set of $H^{i}(\Lambda X;\Bbbk)$ for $\Bbbk$ to be a commutative ring with unit.…

In this paper, we describe the relation between the study of closed connected surfaces embedded in $S^3$ and the theory of handlebody-knots. By Fox's theorem, a pair of handlebody-knots is associated to a closed connected surface embedded…

Given a CAT(0) cube complex X, we show that if Aut(X) $\neq$ Isom(X) then there exists a full subcomplex of X which decomposes as a product with $\mathbb{R}^n$. As applications, we prove that if X is $\delta$-hyperbolic, cocompact and…

We prove that for every finite dimensional compact metric space $X$ there is an open continuous linear surjection from $C_p[0,1]$ onto $C_p(X)$. The proof makes use of embeddings introduced by Kolmogorov and Sternfeld in connection with…

Let $\TT$ be a torus. We prove that all subsets of $\TT$ with finitely many boundary components (none of them being points) embed properly into $\CC^2$.

For any closed subset $F$ of $[1,\infty]$ which is either finite or consists of the elements of an increasing sequence and its limit, a reflexive Banach space $X$ with a 1-unconditional basis is constructed so that in each block subspace…

Given a simplicial pair $(X,A)$, a simplicial complex $Y$, and a map $f:A \to Y$, does $f$ have an extension to $X$? We show that for a fixed $Y$, this question is algorithmically decidable for all $X$, $A$, and $f$ if $Y$ has the rational…

We first prove that for every metrizable space $X$, for every closed subset $F$ whose complement is zero-dimensional, the space $X$ can be embedded into a product space of the closed subset $F$ and a metrizable zero-dimensional space as a…
