A product of compact normal spaces is normal; the product of a countably infinite collection of non-trivial spaces is normal if and only if it is countably paracompact and each of its finite sub-products is normal; if all powers of a space…

Let $P$ be a directed set and $X$ a space. A collection $\mathcal{C}$ of subsets of $X$ is \emph{$P$-locally finite} if $\mathcal{C}=\bigcup \{ \mathcal{C}_p : p \in P\}$ where (i) if $p \le p'$ then $\mathcal{C}_p \subseteq…

Stable compact minimal submanifolds of the product of a sphere and any Riemannian manifold are classified whenever the dimension of the sphere is at least three. The complete classification of the stable compact minimal submanifolds of the…

\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…

If $\mathcal P$ is a family of filters over some set $I$, a topological space $X$ is \emph{sequencewise $\mathcal P$-\brfrt compact} if, for every $I$-indexed sequence of elements of $X$, there is $F \in \mathcal P$ such that the sequence…

We explore classifiability of crossed products of actions of countable amenable groups on compact, metrizable spaces. It is completely understood when such crossed products are simple, separable, unital, nuclear and satisfy the UCT: these…

We show that the space of continuous functions over a compact space X admits an equivalent pointwise-lowersemicontinuous locally uniformly rotund norm whenever X admits a fully closed map onto a compact Y such that C(Y) and the spaces of…

A space X is finite dimensional, locally compact and separable metrizable if and only if X has a finite basic family: continuous functions Phi_1,...,Phi_n of X to the reals, R, such that for all continuous f from X to R there are g_1,...,…

The parallel product of two rooted maps was introduced by S. E. Wilson in 1994. The main question of this paper is whether for a given reflexible map $M$ one can decompose the map into a parallel product of two reflexible maps. This can be…

A topological space $G$ is said to be a {\it rectifiable space} provided that there are a surjective homeomorphism $\phi :G\times G\rightarrow G\times G$ and an element $e\in G$ such that $\pi_{1}\circ \phi =\pi_{1}$ and for every $x\in G$…

$C_p(X)$ denotes the space of continuous real-valued functions on a Tychonoff space $X$ endowed with the topology of pointwise convergence. A Banach space $E$ equipped with the weak topology is denoted by $E_{w}$. It is unknown whether…

A Tychonoff space $X$ is called $\kappa$-pseudocompact if for every continuous mapping $f$ of $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^\kappa$ the image $f(X)$ is compact. This notion generalizes pseudocompactness and gives a stratification of spaces lying…

H-holomorphic maps are a parameter version of J-holomorphic maps into contact manifolds. They have arisen in efforts to prove the existence of higher--genus holomorphic open book decompositions and efforts to prove the existence of finite…

In this paper, we present a characterization of compact quantum metric spaces in terms of finite dimensional approximations. This characterization naturally leads to the introduction of a matrix analogue of a compact quantum metric space.…

We consider definable topological spaces of dimension one in o-minimal structures, and state several equivalent conditions for when such a topological space $\left(X,\tau\right)$ is definably homeomorphic to an affine definable space…

We show that if $C_p(X\times Z)$ is homeomorphic to $C_p(Y\times Z)$, where $Z$ is compact, and $X$ and $Y$ are of countable netweight, then $C_p(X\times M)$ is homeomorphic to $C_p(Y\times M)$ for some metric compactum $M$.

We characterize conformally removable sets in the plane with the aid of the recent developments in the theory of metric surfaces. We prove that a compact set in the plane is $S$-removable if and only if there exists a quasiconformal map…

The path spaces of a directed graph play an important role in the study of graph $\css$. These are topological spaces that were originally constructed using groupoid and inverse semigroup techniques. In this paper, we develop a simple,…

Let $\mathbf{TB}$ be the category of totally bounded, locally compact metric spaces with the $C_0$ coarse structures. We show that if $X$ and $Y$ are in $\mathbf{TB}$ then $X$ and $Y$ are coarsely equivalent if and only if their Higson…

We show that there is a compact topological space carrying a measure which is not a weak* limit of finitely supported measures but is in the sequential closure of the set of such measures. We construct compact spaces with measures of…
