Suppose $X$ is a compact connected metric space and $f: X \to X$ is a metric coarse expanding conformal map in the sense of Ha\"issinsky-Pilgrim. We show that if $X$ contains a homeomorphic copy of the letter "Y", then the Hausdorff…

In this paper, we study the topology associated to the fractal manifold model. It turns out that this topology is actually a family of topologies that gives to the fractal manifold a structure of variable topological space. Additionally, we…

We introduce the set-self-Tietze property, an analogue of the self-Tietze property for upper semi-continuous set-valued functions. A topological space $X$ is self-Tietze, if for every closed $A \subseteq X$ and continuous function $f \colon…

For a topological space $X$ its reflection in a class $\mathsf T$ of topological spaces is a pair $(\mathsf T X,i_X)$ consisting of a space $\mathsf T X\in\mathsf T$ and continuous map $i_X:X\to \mathsf T X$ such that for any continuous map…

Given a multi-valued function $\Phi$ on a topological space $X$ we study the properties of its fixed fractal, which is defined as the closure of the orbit $\Phi^\omega(Fix(\Phi))=\bigcup_{n\in\omega}\Phi^n(Fix(\Phi))$ of the set…

Let $\mathfrak{P}$ be a topological property. We study the relation between the order structure of the set of all $\mathfrak{P}$-extensions of a completely regular space $X$ with compact remainder (partially ordered by the standard partial…

The self-similar structure of the attracting subshift of a primitive substitution is carried over to the limit set of the repelling tree in the boundary of Outer Space of the corresponding irreducible outer automorphism of a free group.…

A Peano continuum means a locally connected continuum. A compact metric space is called a \emph{Peano compactum} if all its components are Peano continua and if for any constant $C>0$ all but finitely many of its components are of diameter…

We consider Thurston maps, i.e., branched covering maps $f\colon S^2\to S^2$ that are postcritically finite. In addition, we assume that $f$ is expanding in a suitable sense. It is shown that each sufficiently high iterate $F=f^n$ of $f$ is…

A topology on a nonempty set $X$ specifies a natural subset of $\mathcal{P}(X)$. By identifying $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{P}(X))$ with the totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space $2^{\mathcal{P}(X)}$, the lattice $Top(X)$ of all topologies…

For self-similar fractals, the Minkowski content and fractal curvature have been introduced as a suitable limit of the geometric characteristics of its parallel sets, i.e., of uniformly thin coatings of the fractal. For some self-conformal…

This paper is a survey, with few proofs, of ideas and notions related to self-similarity of groups, semi-groups and their actions. It attempts to relate these concepts to more familiar ones, such as fractals, self-similar sets, and…

In this paper, we present high-level overviews of tile-based self-assembling systems capable of producing complex, infinite, aperiodic structures known as discrete self-similar fractals. Fractals have a variety of interesting mathematical…

If a Peano continuum $X$ is semilocally simply connected, then it has a finite polyhedral approximation whose fundamental group is isomorphic to that of $X$. In general, this fails to be true. It is known that the fundamental group of a…

A general class of finitely ramified fractals is that of P.C.F. self-similar sets. An important open problem in analysis on fractals was whether there exists a self-similar energy on every P.C.F. self-similar set. In this paper, I solve the…

Downarowicz and Maass (2008) have shown that every Cantor minimal homeomorphism with finite topological rank $K > 1$ is expansive. Bezuglyi, Kwiatkowski and Medynets (2009) extended the result to non-minimal cases. On the other hand,…

We consider a special type of self-similar sets, called fractal squares, and give a brief review on recent results and unsolved issues with an emphasis on their topological properties.

Given a non-degenerate Peano continuum $X$, a dimension function $D:2^X_*\to[0,\infty]$ defined on the family $2^X_*$ of compact subsets of $X$, and a subset $\Gamma\subset[0,\infty)$, we recognize the topological structure of the system…

We study the properties of topological spaces $(X,\tau)$, where $X$ is a definable set in an o-minimal structure and the topology $\tau$ on $X$ has a basis that is (uniformly) definable. Examples of such spaces include the canonical…

The topological reconstruction problem asks how much information about a topological space can be recovered from its point-complement subspaces. If the whole space can be recovered in this way, it is called reconstructible. Our main result…
