A zigzag in a map (a $2$-cell embedding of a connected graph in a connected closed $2$-dimensional surface) is a cyclic sequence of edges satisfying the following conditions: 1) any two consecutive edges lie on the same face and have a…

We give sharp conditions on a local biholomorphism $F:X \to \mathbb C^{n}$ which ensure global injectivity. For $n \geq 2$, such a map is injective if for each complex line $l \subset \mathbb C^{n}$, the pre-image $F^{-1}(l)$ embeds…

We show that, if a building is endowed with its complete system of apartments, and if each panel is contained in at least four chambers, then the intersection of two apartments can be any convex subcomplex contained in an apartment. This…

Let $\Pi$ be a convex decomposition of a set $P$ of $n\geq 3$ points in general position in the plane. If $\Pi$ consists of more than one polygon, then either $\Pi$ contains a deletable edge or $\Pi$ contains a contractible edge.

In a companion manuscript, we introduce a stratification of intersections of a top dimensional real Bruhat cells with another arbitrary cell. This intersection is naturally identified with a subset of the lower triangular group: these…

We study the complexity of the itineraries of injective piecewise contracting maps on the interval. We prove that for any such map the complexity function of any itinerary is eventually affine. We also prove that the growth rate of the…

The aim of this paper is to prove an important generalization of the construction of the Incidence Divisor given in [BMg]. Let Z be a complex manifold and (X_{s})_{s\in S}an family of n-cycles (not necessarily compact) in Z parametrized by…

For a noncommutative space X, we study Inj(X), the set of isomorphism classes of indecomposable injective X-modules. In particular, we look at how this set, suitably topologized, can be viewed as an underlying "spectrum" for X. As…

A commutative local ring is generally defined to be a complete intersection if its completion is isomorphic to the quotient of a regular local ring by an ideal generated by a regular sequence. It has not previously been determined whether…

It is proved that for a Jacobi pair $(F,G)\in C[x,y]^2$, the Keller mapping: $(a,b)\mapsto(F(a,b),G(a,b))$ for $(a,b)\in C^2$, is injective. In particular, the $2$-dimensional Jacobi conjecture holds.

We give a counterexample to a conjecture of D.H. Gottlieb and prove a strengthened version of it. The conjecture says that a map from a finite CW-complex X to an aspherical CW-complex Y with non-zero Euler characteristic can have…

Let $X$ be a topological space, $U$ -- opened subset of $X$. We will say that point $x \in \partial U$ is {\it accessible} from $U$ if there exists continuous injective mapping $\phi : I \to \Cl D$ such that $\phi(1)=x$, $\phi([0,1))…

We prove that each injective simplicial map from the arc complex of a compact, connected, nonorientable surface with nonempty boundary to itself is induced by a homeomorphism of the surface. We also prove that the automorphism group of the…

A typical question addressed in this paper is the following. Suppose $Z\subset Y\subset X$ are hyperbolic spaces where $Z$ is quasiconvex in both $Y$ and $X$. Let $\HAT{Y}$ and $\HAT{X}$ denote the spaces obtained from $Y$ and $X$…

We prove that if a non-singular planar map $\Lambda \in C^2(R^2,R^2)$ has a convex component, then $\Lambda$ is injective. We do not assume strict convexity.

By definition, the intersection of finitely many open sets of any topological space is open. Nachbin observed that, more generally, the intersection of compactly many open sets is open. Moreover, Nachbin applied this to obtain elegant…

In this article, we prove that a complex cone is a set of injectivity for the twisted spherical means for the class of all continuous functions on $\mathbb C^n$ as long as it does not completely lay on the level surface of any bi-graded…

We prove that the road space of an R-special tree is contractible and that a locally metrizable space containing a copy of an uncountable $\omega_1$-compact subspace of a tree is not. We also raise some questions about possible…

We study the topology of X given that Cp(X) injects into Cp(Y), where Y is compact. We first show that if Cp over a GO-space (="subspace of a lineraly ordered space") injects into Cp over a compactum, then the Dedekind remainder of the…

It is shown that a trace invariant projection map, i.e. a positive unital idempotent map, of a finite dimensional C*-algebra into itself is non-decomposable if and only if it is atomic, or equivalently not the sum of a 2-positive and a…
