Let $\mathcal{F} $ be a pointwise almost periodic decomposition of a compact metrizable space $X$. Then $\mathcal{F} $ is $R$-closed if and only if $\hat{\mathcal{F}} $ is usc. Moreover, if there is a finite index normal subgroup $H$ of an…

A result of G. Godefroy asserts that a Banach space $X$ contains an isomorphic copy of $\ell_1$ if and only if there is an equivalent norm $|||\cdot|||$ such that, for every finite-dimensional subspace $Y$ of $X$ and every $\varepsilon>0$,…

Let X be a topological space, and let C(X) be the complex of singular cochains on X with real coefficients. We denote by Cc(X) the subcomplex given by continuous cochains, i.e. by such cochains whose restriction to the space of simplices…

Let X be a h-homogeneous zero-dimensional compact Hausdorff space, i.e. X is a Stone dual of a homogeneous Boolean algebra. Using the dual Ramsey theorem and a detailed combinatorial analysis of what we call stable collections of subsets of…

Let $G$ be the group $\mathbb{Z}^d$ or the monoid $\mathbb{N}^d$ where $d$ is a positive integer. Let $X$ be a subshift over $G$, i.e., a closed and shift-invariant subset of $A^G$ where $A$ is a finite alphabet. We prove that the…

Given a graph~$G$, the domination number, denoted by~$\gamma(G)$, is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set in~$G$. Dual to the notion of domination number is the packing number of a graph. A packing of~$G$ is a set of vertices whose…

In this paper, we continue to study one of the classic problems in general topology raised by P.S. Alexandrov: when a Hausdorff space $X$ has a continuous bijection (a condensation) onto a compactum? We concentrate on the situation when not…

Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$ with smooth boundary $\partial M$. Suppose that $(M,g)$ admits a scalar-flat conformal metric. We prove that the supremum of the isoperimetric quotient over the…

Let $K$ be a compact Hausdorff space and let $(f_n)_{n\in \N}$ be a pairwise disjoint sequence of continuous functions from $K$ into $[0,1]$. We say that a compact space $L$ \emph{adds supremum} of $(f_n)_{n\in \N}$ in $K$ if there exists a…

This paper is about geometric and topological properties of a proper CAT(0) space $X$ which is cocompact - i.e. which has a compact generating domain with respect to the full isometry group. It is shown that geodesic segments in $X$ can…

Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional locally compact Hausdorff space not necessarily metric and $G$ a compactly generated topological group not necessarily abelian or countable. We define recurrence at a point for any continuous action of $G$ on…

Let $\mathcal{N} \neq \{0\}$ be a fixed set of integers, closed under multiplication, closed under negation, or containing $\{\pm 1\}$. We prove that any zero of a polynomial in $\mathbf{Z}[X]$ whose coefficients lie in $\mathcal{N}$ can be…

It is shown that any Banach space X of sufficiently large density contains an (infinite) unconditional sequence and a separable quotient. If a density of X is a weakly compact cardinal, then X contains an unconditional sequence of…

Let G be an infinite discrete group of type FP-infinity and let p>1 be a real number. We prove that the l^p-homology and cohomology groups of G are either 0 or infinite dimensional. We also show that the cardinality of the p-harmonic…

If $X$ is an algebraic variety with at worst canonical singularities and $S$ is a $\Q$-Cartier hypersurface in $X$, the canonical threshold of the pair $(X,S)$ is the supremum of $c\in\R$ such that the pair $(X,cS)$ is canonical. We show…

For a given graph $H$, its subdivisions carry the same topological structure. The existence of $H$-subdivisions within a graph $G$ has deep connections with topological, structural and extremal properties of $G$. One prominent example of…

Let $C_0(K, X)$ denote the space of all continuous $X$-valued functions defined on the locally compact Hausdorff space $K$ which vanish at infinity, provided with the supremum norm. If $X$ is the scalar field, we denote $C_0(K, X)$ by…

Let $P$ be a finite simplicial comple with underlying space (union of simplices in $P$) $|P|$. Let $Q$ be a subcomplex of $P$. Let $a \geq 0$. Then there exists $K < \infty$, \emph{depending only on $a$ and $Q$,} with the following…

Given any $\lambda\leq\kappa$, we construct a symmetric extension in which there is a set $X$ such that $\aleph(X)=\lambda$ and $\aleph^*(X)=\kappa$. Consequently, we show that $\mathsf{ZF}+$"For all pairs of infinite cardinals…
