For a Cantor set $X$, let $Homeo(X)$ denote the group of all homeomorphisms of $X$. The main result of this note is the following theorem. Let $T\in Homeo(X)$ be an aperiodic homeomorphism, let $\mu_1,\mu_2,...,\mu_k$ be Borel probability…

We prove a reconstruction theorem valid for arbitrary theories in continuous (or classical) logic in a countable language, that is to say that we provide a complete bi-interpretation invariant for such theories, taking the form of an open…

For a metrizable space $X$ of density $\kappa$, let $PM(X)$ be the space of continuous bounded pseudometrics on $X$ endowed with the uniform convergence topology. In this paper, its topology shall be classified as follows: (i) If $X$ is…

Consider the topologically enriched category of compact smooth manifolds (possibly with corners), with morphisms given by codimension zero smooth embeddings. Now formally identify any object X with its thickening X x [-1,1]. We prove that…

Let $K$ be the Cantor set. We prove that arbitrarily close to a homeomorphism $T:K\rightarrow K$ there exists a homeomorphism $\widetilde T:K\rightarrow K$ such that the $\alpha$-limit and the $\omega$-limit of every orbit is a periodic…

We show that if $\phi : X \to X$ is an automorphism of a smooth projective variety and $D \subset X$ is an irreducible divisor for which the set of $d$ in $D$ with $\phi^n(d)$ in $D$ for some nonzero $n$ is not Zariski dense, then $(X,…

Using symplectic topology and the Radon transform, we prove that smooth 4-dimensional projective planes are diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{CP}^2$. We define the notion of a plane curve in a smooth projective plane, show that plane curves in high…

We prove that for any separable Banach space $X$, there exists a compact metric space which is homeomorphic to the Cantor space and whose Lipschitz-free space contains a complemented subspace isomorphic to $X$. As a consequence we give an…

Given an arbitrary abstract simplicial complex $K$ on $[m]:=\{1,2,\ldots, m\}$, different from the simplex $\Delta_{[m]}$ with $m$ vertices, we introduce and study a canonical $(2m-2)$-dimensional toric manifold $X_K$, associated to the…

An old question of A.V. Arhangel'skii asks if the Menger property of a Tychonoff space $X$ is preserved by homeomorphisms of its function space $C_p(X)$. We provide affirmative answer in the case of linear homeomorphisms. To this end, we…

We prove that every continuous mapping from a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ can be uniformly approximated by $C^\infty$ smooth mappings {\em with no critical points}. This kind of result can be…

A family of closed subsets of a topological space $X$ is called a (strict) $Cld$-fan in $X$ if this family is (strictly) compact-finite but not locally finite in $X$. Applications of (strict) $Cld$-fans are based on a simple observation…

We define the Z/2Z Hodge spaces H_{pq}(\Sigma) of a fan \Sigma. If \Sigma is the normal fan of a reflexive polytope \Delta then we use polyhedral duality to compute the Z/2Z Hodge Spaces of \Sigma. In particular, if the cones of dimension…

For a given continuum $X$ and a natural number $n,$ we consider the hyperspace $F_n(X)$ of all nonempty subsets of $X$ with at most $n$ points, metrized by the Hausdorff metric. In this paper we show that if $X$ is a dendrite whose set of…

We prove a generalization of the Poincar\'e-Birkhoff theorem for the open annulus showing that if a homeomorphism satisfies a certain twist condition and the nonwandering set is connected, then there is a fixed point. Our main focus is the…

An affine tropical fan is called regular if it supports a reduced 0-dimensional complete intersection. For some cases the classification of regular fans is already complete. It was proved by Fink that tropical varieties of degree 1 are…

It is well-known that a function on an open set in $\mathbb R^d$ is smooth if and only if it is arc-smooth, i.e., its composites with all smooth curves are smooth. In recent work, we extended this and related results (for instance, a real…

The Arnold conjecture states that a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a closed and connected symplectic manifold must have at least as many fixed points as the minimal number of critical points of a smooth function on the manifold. It is well…

Let $M$ be a closed, 3-connected, 8-dimensional smooth manifold. In this paper, we compute the concordance inertia group of the product manifold $M\times\mathbb{S}^k$ for $1\leq k\leq 14$ and classify all smooth manifolds homeomorphic to…

We show that if there exists a Lipschitz homeomorphism $T$ between the nets in the Banach spaces $C(X)$ and $C(Y)$ of continuous real valued functions on compact spaces $X$ and $Y$, then the spaces $X$ and $Y$ are homeomorphic provided…
