Let $G$ be a locally compact Hausdorff group. We study orbit spaces of equivariant absolute neighborhood extensors ($G$-${\rm ANE}$'s) in the class of all proper $G$-spaces that are metrizable by a $G$-invariant metric. We prove that if a…

We characterize metric spaces $X$ whose hyperspaces $2^X$ or $Bd(X)$ of non-empty closed (bounded) subsets, endowed with the Hausdorff metric, are absolute [neighborhood] retracts.

For a non-compact metrizable space $X$, let ${\mathcal E}(X)$ be the set of all one-point metrizable extensions of $X$, and when $X$ is locally compact, let ${\mathcal E}_K(X)$ denote the set of all locally compact elements of ${\mathcal…

It is proved that for a 3-dimensional compact metrizable space X the infinite real projective space is an absolute extensor of X if and only if the real projective plane is an absolute extensor of X.

Consider a divisor D with simple normal crossings in a compact K\"ahler manifold X. We show in this article that a K\"ahler metric in an arbitrary class, with constant scalar curvature and cusp singularities along the divisor is unique in…

We show that for each countable simplicial complex P the following conditions are equivalent: (1) $P \in AE(X)$ iff $P \in AE(\beta X)$ for any space X; (2) There exists a P-invertible map of a metrizable compactum X with $P \in AE(X)$ onto…

The deck, $\mathcal{D}(X)$, of a topological space $X$ is the set $\mathcal{D}(X)=\{[X \setminus \{x\}]\colon x \in X\}$, where $[Y]$ denotes the homeomorphism class of $Y$. A space $X$ is (topologically) reconstructible if whenever…

For a separable locally compact but not compact metrizable space $X$, let $\alpha X = X \cup \{x_\infty\}$ be the one-point compactification with the point at infinity $x_\infty$. We denote by $EM(X)$ the space consisting of admissible…

For any countable $CW$-complex $K$ and a cardinal number $\tau\geq\omega$ we construct a completely metrizable space $X(K,\tau)$ of weight $\tau$ with the following properties: $\e X(K,\tau)\leq K$, $X(K,\tau)$ is an absolute extensor for…

For each $n$, we construct a separable metric space $\mathbb{U}_n$ that is universal in the coarse category of separable metric spaces with asymptotic dimension ($\mathop{asdim}$) at most $n$ and universal in the uniform category of…

We introduce a noncommutative analogue of the absolute value of a regular operator acting on a noncommutative $\mathrm{L}^p$-space. We equally prove that two classical operator norms, the regular norm and the decomposable norm are…

If E is a nonempty closed subset of the locally finite Hausdorff (2n-2)-measure on an n-dimensional complex manifold M and all points of E are nonremovable for a meromorphic mapping of M \ E into a compact K\"ahler manifold, then E is a…

Let L be a countable and locally finite CW complex. Suppose that the class of all metrizable compacta of extension dimension not greater than L contains a universal element which is an absolute extensor in dimension L. Our main result shows…

In a recent paper \cite{T} the fact that a class of locally compact metric spaces $X$, among which are Euclidean spaces, are not homemorphic to their punctured version $X\men\{p\}$, was given an interesting new proof which does not use…

We prove the projective plane $\rp^2$ is an absolute extensor of a finite-dimensional metric space $X$ if and only if the cohomological dimension mod 2 of $X$ does not exceed 1. This solves one of the remaining difficult problems (posed by…

Generalizing a theorem of Ph. Dwinger, we describe the partially ordered set of all (up to equivalence) zero-dimensional locally compact Hausdorff extensions of a zero-dimensional Hausdorff space. Using this description, we find the…

Let $(X,d,p)$ be a pointed metric space. A pretangent space to $X$ at $p$ is a metric space consisting of some equivalence classes of convergent to $p$ sequences $(x_n), x_n \in X,$ whose degree of convergence is comparable with a given…
