We investigate the following question: Do there exist Riemannian polyhedra $X$ such that the 1-Uryson width of their universal covers $\mathrm{UW}_1(\widetilde{X})$ is bounded but $\mathrm{UW}_1(X)$ is arbitrarily large? We rule out two…

For every compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ of algebraic dimension $a(X) = \dim X - 1$, we prove that $X$ has arbitrarily small deformations to some projective manifolds.

It is common that a Sobolev space defined on $\mathbb{R}^m$ has a non-compact embedding into an $L^p$-space, but it has subspaces for which this embedding becomes compact. There are three well known cases of such subspaces, the Rellich…

The definition of $n$-width of a bounded subset $A$ in a normed linear space $X$ is based on the existence of $n$-dimensional subspaces. Although the concept of an $n$-dimensional subspace is not available for metric trees, in this paper,…

A finite subset $X$ of the Euclidean space is called an $m$-distance set if the number of distances between two distinct points in $X$ is equal to $m$. An $m$-distance set $X$ is said to be maximal if any vector cannot be added to $X$ while…

A bounded subset of a normed linear space is said to be (diametrically) complete if it cannot be enlarged without increasing the diameter. A complete super set of a bounded set $K$ having the same diameter as $K$ is called a completion of…

In this paper, we deal with a hyperspace selection problem in the setting of connected spaces. We present two solutions of this problem illustrating the difference between selections for the nonempty closed sets, and those for the at most…

We show how to construct nonlocally convex quasi-Banach spaces $X$ whose dual separates the points of a dense subspace of $X$ but does not separate the points of $X$. Our examples connect with a question raised by Pietsch [About the Banach…

Let $X$ be a finite set. A family $P$ of subsets of $X$ is called a convex geometry with ground set $X$ if (1) $\emptyset, X\in P$; (2) $A\cap B\in P$ whenever $A,B\in P$; and (3) if $A\in P$ and $A\neq X$, there is an element $\alpha\in…

This paper outlines a possibility for spacetime dynamics and structure, without postulating a metric ab initio. In this model, the closer an object is to a mass or energy source, the more paths through spacetime might be available to the…

We study the relative position of three subspaces in a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. In the finite-dimensional case, Brenner described the general position of three subspaces completely. We extend it to a certain class of…

Let $\mathfrak{M}$ be a class of metric spaces. A metric space $Y$ is minimal $\mathfrak{M}$-universal if every $X\in\mathfrak{M}$ can be isometrically embedded in $Y$ but there are no proper subsets of $Y$ satisfying this property. We find…

The notion of max-plus convex subset of Euclidean space can be naturally extended to other linear spaces. The aim of this paper is to describe the topology of hyperspaces of max-plus convex subsets of Tychonov powers $\mathbb R^\tau$ of the…

In the History of Ideas, a succession of philosophical and scientific achievements, concerning the concept of space and its dimensionality, were essential to contribute, after a long period, to the theoretical possibility of thinking…

A large class of vacuum space-times is constructed in dimension 4+1 from hyperboloidal initial data sets which are not small perturbations of empty space data. These space-times are future geodesically complete, smooth up to their future…

This paper investigates self-maps T from X to X which satisfy a distance constraint in a metric space which mixed point-dependent non-expansive properties, or in particular contractive ones, and potentially expansive properties related to…

The aim of this paper is to introduce the concept of Delta-Compact spaces along with some basic properties of it. Here, we try to establish the behavior of Delta-Compact spaces under the continuous mapping. Finally, we define another…

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.

We investigate the category of discrete topological spaces, with emphasis on inverse systems of height $\omega_1$. Their inverse limits belong to the class of $P$-spaces, which allows us to explore dimensional types of these spaces.

Spaces of quasi-invariant measures supplied with different topologies are studied. Their embeddings, projective decompositions, conditions for their metrizability are investigated. Theorems about convergence of nets of quasi-invariant…
