We say that a Tychonoff space $X$ is a $\kappa$-space if it is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of $C_p(Y)$ for some locally compact space $Y$. The class of $\kappa$-spaces is strictly between the class of Dieudonn\'{e} complete spaces and…
The standard conformal compactification of Euclidean space is the round sphere. We use conformal geodesics to give an elementary proof that this is the only possible conformal compactification.
We consider minimal compactifications of the complex affine plane. Minimal compactifications of the affine plane with at most log canonical singularities are classified. Moreover, every minimal compactification of the affine plane with at…
We explore the Borel complexity of some basic families of subsets of a countable group (large, small, thin, sparse and other) defined by the size of their elements. Applying the obtained results to the Stone-\v{C}ech compactification $\beta…
We study isometric $G$-spaces and the question of when their maximal equivariant compactification is the Gromov compactification (meaning that it coincides with the compactification generated by the distance functions to points). Answering…
In the paper we study pseudocompact primitive topological inverse semigroups. We describe the structure of pseudocompact primitive topological inverse semigroups and show that a Tychonoff product of a family of pseudocompact primitive…
In nonsmooth optimization, a negative subgradient is not necessarily a descent direction, making the design of convergent descent methods based on zeroth-order and first-order information a challenging task. The well-studied bundle methods…
Given a split semisimple group over a local field, we consider the maximal Satake-Berkovich compactification of the corresponding Euclidean building. We prove that it can be equivariantly identified with the compactification which we get by…
In this work we analyze some topological properties of the remainder $\partial M:=\beta_s^* M\setminus M$ of the semialgebraic Stone-C\v{e}ch compactification $\beta_s^* M$ of a semialgebraic set $M\subset{\mathbb R}^m$ in order to…
We characterize, in terms of $X$, extensional dimension of the Stone-\v{C}ech corona $\beta X \setminus X$ of locally compact and Lindel\"{o}f space $X$. The non-Lindel\"{o}f case case is also settled in terms of extending proper maps with…
For a discrete group $G$ and a discrete $G$-space $X$, we identify the Stone-\v{C}ech compactifications $\beta G$ and $\beta X$ with the sets of all ultrafilters on $G$ and $X$, and apply the natural action of $\beta G$ on $\beta X$ to…
We consider the question of quantitative stability of minimisers for a well-known variational problem for which the infimum of the energy is not achieved in the classical sense, namely for the Dirichlet energy of degree $1$ maps from closed…
For complete affine manifolds we introduce a definition of compactification based on the projective differential geometry (i.e.\ geodesic path data) of the given connection. The definition of projective compactness involves a real parameter…
We prove that the atom spectrum, which is a topological space associated to an arbitrary abelian category introduced by Kanda, of the category of finitely presented graded modules over a graded ring $R$ is given as a union of the…
After defining continuous extensions of binary relations on the set N of natural numbers to its Stone-Cech compactification \beta N, we establish some results about one of such extensions. This provides us with one possible divisibility…
The various types of compactifications of symmetric spaces and locally symmetric spaces are well-studied. Among them, the De Concini-Procesi compactification, also known as the wonderful compactification, of symmetric varieties has been…
A classical result of Cheng states that the bottom spectrum of complete manifolds of fixed dimension and Ricci curvature lower bound achieves its maximal value on the corresponding hyperbolic space. The paper establishes an analogous result…
We present a novel notion of stable objects in the derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective variety. As one application we compactify a moduli space of stable bundles using genuine complexes.
It is proved that $P(\beta X)=\beta P(X)$ if and only if $P(X)$ is a pseudocompact space, where $P(X)$ is the space of probability Radon measures with weak topology and $\beta X$ is a Stone-Cech extension of the space $X$. A locally compact…
In the paper the \v{C}ech border homology and cohomology groups of closed pairs of normal spaces are constructed and investigated. These groups give intrinsic characterizations of \v{C}ech homology and cohomology groups based on finite open…
