Let $X$ be a Banach space and let $C$ be a closed convex bounded subset of $X$. It is proved that $C$ is weakly compact if, and only if, $C$ has the {it generic} fixed point property ($\mathcal{G}$-FPP) for the class of $L$-bi-Lipschitz…

In this paper we obtain results indicating that fine shape is tractable and "not too strong" even in the non-locally compact case, and can be used to better understand infinite-dimensional metrizable spaces and their homology theories. We…

We prove that the groups of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms and diffeomorphisms of $\mathbb{R}^n$ are boundedly acyclic, in all regularities. This is the first full computation of the bounded cohomology of a transformation group that…

For metrizable spaces we replace the notion of almost periodic homeomorphism with a similar notion and verify that the usual characterizations of almost periodic homeomorphisms of compact metric spaces are valid for all metrizable spaces.

In the minimal surface theory, the Krust theorem asserts that if a minimal surface in the Euclidean 3-space $\mathbb{E}^3$ is the graph of a function over a convex domain, then each surface of its associated family is also a graph. The same…

We introduce the space of relative orders on a group and show that it is compact whenever the group is finitely generated. We use this to show that if $G$ is a finitely generated group acting by order preserving homeomorphism of on the…

This paper forms the first part of a series by the authors [GMV2,GMV3] concerning the structure theory of nilspaces of Antol\'in Camarena and Szegedy. A nilspace is a compact space $X$ together with closed collections of cubes…

In this paper we study relative Riemann-Zariski spaces attached to a morphism of schemes and generalizing the classical Riemann-Zariski space of a field. We prove that similarly to the classical RZ spaces, the relative ones can be described…

\emph{Scalable spaces} are simply connected compact manifolds or finite complexes whose real cohomology algebra embeds in their algebra of (flat) differential forms. This is a rational homotopy invariant property and all scalable spaces are…

We study the dynamics of continuous maps on compact metric spaces containing a free interval (an open subset homeomorphic to the interval $(0,1)$). We provide a new proof of a result of M. Dirb\'ak, \v{L}. Snoha, V. \v{S}pitalsk\'y [Ergodic…

In his PhD Thesis Konstantinos Beros proved a number of results about compactly generated subgroups of Polish groups. Such a group is K-sigma - the countable union of compact sets. He notes that the group of rationals under addition with…

Let $X$ be a locally symmetric space $\Gamma\backslash G/K$ where $G$ is a connected non-compact semisimple real Lie group with trivial centre, $K$ is a maximal compact subgroup of $G$, and $\Gamma\subset G$ is a torsion-free irreducible…

We show that, given a compact Hausdorff space $\Omega$, there is a compact group ${\mathbb G}$ and a homeomorphic embedding of $\Omega$ into ${\mathbb G}$, such that the restriction map ${\rm A}({\mathbb G})\to C(\Omega)$ is a complete…

We construct stable minimal hypersurfaces with simple topology in certain compact $4$-manifolds $X$ with boundary, where $X$ embeds into a smooth manifold homeomorphic to $S^4$. For example, if $X$ is equipped with a Riemannian metric $g$…

Harmonic mappings have long intrigued researchers due to their intrinsic connection with minimal surfaces. In this paper, we investigate shearing of two distinct classes of univalent conformal mappings which are convex in horizontal…

Concentration compactness method is a powerful techniques for establishing existence of minimizers for inequalities and of critical points of functionals in general. The paper gives a functional-analytic formulation for the method in Banach…

We proof here the existence of a topological thick and thin decomposition of any closed definable thick isolated singularity germ in the spirit of the recently discovered metric thick and thin decomposition of complex normal surface…

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 this note we show that finitely generated unit $O_X[\sigma]$--modules for $X$ regular and $F$--finite have a minimal root (in the sense of [Lyubeznik, F-modules] Definition~3.6). This problem was posed by Lyubeznik and answered by…

We investigate structural properties of non-sofic groups, assuming that such groups exist. We introduce and study two classes: minimal non-sofic groups and $\omega$-non-sofic groups. For minimal non-sofic groups, we establish strong…
