A standard way of approximating or discretizing a metric space is by taking its Rips complexes. These approximations for all parameters are often bound together into a filtration, to which we apply the fundamental group or the first…

Uniformly finite homology is a coarse invariant for metric spaces; in particular, it is a quasi-isometry invariant for finitely generated groups. In this article, we study uniformly finite homology of finitely generated amenable groups and…

The symmetric inverse semigroup $I(X)$ on a set $X$ is the collection of all partial bijections between subsets of $X$ with composition as the algebraic operation. We study a minimal Hausdorff inverse semigroup topologies on $I(X)$. When…

We consider a family of tight contact structures on the three-dimensional torus and we compute the relative Contact Homology by using the variational theory of critical points at infinity. We will also show some algebraic equivariant…

We prove that many completeness properties coincide in metric spaces, precompact groups and dense subgroups of products of separable metric groups. We apply these results to function spaces C_p(X,G) of G-valued continuous functions on a…

For a metric space $X$ we study metrics on the two copies of $X$. We define composition of such metrics and show that the equivalence classes of metrics are a semigroup $M(X)$ Our main result is that $M(X)$ is an inverse semigroup,…

Let X be a G-space such that the orbit space X/G is metrizable. Suppose a family of slices is given at each point of X. We study a construction which associates, under some conditions on the family of slices, with any metric on X/G an…

We investigate conditions under which a co-computably enumerable closed set in a computable metric space is computable and prove that in each locally computable computable metric space each co-computably enumerable compact manifold with…

For $n \geq 2$, the $n$-th curvature set of a metric space $X$ is the set consisting of all $n$-by-$n$ distance matrices of $n$ points sampled from $X$. Curvature sets can be regarded as a geometric analogue of configuration spaces. In this…

We introduce the notion of spaces with weak relative cohomology and show the acyclicity of the complement $Q\setminus X$ in the Hilbert cube $Q$ of a compactum $X$ with weak relative cohomology. As a corollary we obtain the acyclicity of…

We determine topological complexity of a series of finite spaces which is weakly homotopy equivalent to a circle $S^1$, and give a finite space $X$ satisfying the inequality tc$(X) <$ cat$(X {\times} X)$. This answers two conjectures on…

We study the general form of isomorphisms on the algebra of compactly supported complex-valued continuous functions defined on a locally compact Hausdorff space (the proof of which works for the algebra of $C^k-$differentiable functions on…

We propose a sequential topology on the space of sub-$\sigma$-algebras of a separable probability space $(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mathbb{P})$ by linking conditional expectations on $L^{2}$ along sequences of sub-$\sigma$-algebras. The varying…

The paper introduces the class of O-metric spaces, a novel generalization of metric-type spaces, classifying almost all possible metric types into upward and downward O-metrics. We list some topologies arising from O-metrics and discuss…

The topological properties of a set have a strong impact on its computability properties. A striking illustration of this idea is given by spheres and closed manifolds: if a set $X$ is homeomorphic to a sphere or a closed manifold, then any…

It is shown that a surjective monotone map $X\to Y$ between finite $T_0$-spaces induces a surjective map on homology. As such a map turns out to be a sequence of edge contractions in the Hasse diagram of $X$, followed by a homeomorphism,…

Recently we have shown that the equivalence classes of metrics on the double of a metric space $X$ form an inverse semigroup. Here we define an inverse subsemigroup related to a family of isometric subspaces of $X$, which is more…

We develop a geometric version of the inverse problem of the calculus of variations for discrete mechanics and constrained discrete mechanics. The geometric approach consists of using suitable Lagrangian and isotropic submanifolds. We also…

We are dealing with the complexity of the homeomorphism equivalence relation on some classes of metrizable compacta from the viewpoint of invariant descriptive set theory. We prove that the homeomorphism equivalence relation of absolute…

Lattice discretizations of continuous manifolds are common tools used in a variety of physical contexts. Conventional discrete approximations, however, cannot capture all aspects of the original manifold, notably its topology. In this paper…
