All spaces are assumed to be separable and metrizable. Ostrovsky showed that every zero-dimensional Borel space is $\sigma$-homogeneous. Inspired by this theorem, we obtain the following results: assuming $\mathsf{AD}$, every…

Nuclear $C^*$-algebras having a system of completely positive approximations formed with convex combinations of a uniformly bounded number of order zero summands are shown to be approximately finite dimensional.

We prove that, under certain mild conditions, every cocompact CAT(0) space is almost geodesically complete.

In this paper a construction of a metrizable zero-dimensional CDH space $X$ such that $X^2$ has exactly $\mathfrak{c}$ countable dense subsets is provided. Furthermore, it is shown that the space can be constructed consistently co-analytic.…

We prove that the classes of weakly $1$-dimensional and almost $0$-dimensional spaces are disjoint. The result has applications to hereditarily locally connected spaces, $\mathbb R$-trees, and endpoints of smooth fans.

Menger's conjecture that Menger spaces are /sigma-compact is false; it is true for analytic subspaces of Polish spaces and undecidable for more complex definable subspaces of Polish spaces. For non-metrizable spaces, analytic Menger spaces…

We prove that an almost zero-dimensional space $X$ is an Erd\H{o}s space factor if and only if $X$ has a Sierpi\'{n}ski stratification of C-sets. We apply this characterization to spaces which are countable unions of C-set Erd\H{o}s space…

Below, by space we mean a separable metrizable zero-dimensional space. It is studied when the space can be embedded in a Cantor set while maintaining the algebraic structure. Main results of the work: every space is an open retract of a…

We prove that it is relatively consistent with ZFC that in any perfect Polish space, for every nonmeager set A there exists a nowhere dense Cantor set C such that A intersect C is nonmeager in C. We also examine variants of this result and…

A topological group is locally pseudocompact if it contains a non-empty open set with pseudocompact closure. In this note, we prove that if G is a group with the property that every closed subgroup of G is locally pseudocompact, then G_0 is…

We introduce the completely positive rank, a notion of covering dimension for nuclear $C^*$-algebras and analyze some of its properties. The completely positive rank behaves nicely with respect to direct sums, quotients, ideals and…

In spaces of metrics, we investigate topological distributions of the doubling property, the uniform disconnectedness, and the uniform perfectness, which are the quasi-symmetrically invariant properties appearing in the David--Semmes…

New constructions in group homology allow us to manufacture high-dimensional manifolds with controlled simplicial volume. We prove that for every dimension bigger than 3 the set of simplicial volumes of orientable closed connected manifolds…

We solve a class of lifting problems involving approximate polynomial relations (soft polynomial relations). Various associated C*-algebras are therefore projective. The technical lemma we need is a new manifestation of Akemann and…

We study the density function of measurable subsets of the Cantor space. Among other things, we identify a universal set $\mathcal{U}$ for $\Sigma^{1}_{1}$ subsets of $( 0 ; 1 )$ in terms of the density function; specifically $\mathcal{U}$…

We introduce a notion of covering dimension for Cuntz semigroups of C*-algebras. This dimension is always bounded by the nuclear dimension of the C*-algebra, and for subhomogeneous C*-algebras both dimensions agree. Cuntz semigroups of…

Given an irreducible non-spherical non-affine (possibly non-proper) building $X$, we give sufficient conditions for a group $G < \Aut(X)$ to admit an infinite-dimensional space of non-trivial quasi-morphisms. The result applies to all…

We give extensive characterizations for an open subset of an affine space of arbitrary dimension, resp. of an inverse limit of prime spectra to be quasi-compact. Among other things weak stability, retro-compactness, and cylinder sets…

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 $\mathcal C_{c}(L):= \{\alpha\in \mathcal{R}(L) \mid R_{\alpha} \, \text{ is a countable subset of } \, \mathbb R \}$, where $R_\alpha:=\{r\in\mathbb R \mid {\mathrm{coz}}(\alpha-r)\neq\top\}$ for every $\alpha\in\mathcal R (L).$ By…
