We propose an abstract definition of convex spaces as sets where one can take convex combinations in a consistent way. A priori, a convex space is an algebra over a finitary version of the Giry monad. We identify the corresponding Lawvere…
We define and study hierarchies of topological spaces induced by the classical Borel and Luzin hierarchies of sets. Our hierarchies are divided into two classes: hierarchies of countably based spaces induced by their embeddings into the…
The category of monotone determined spaces is an extended topological framework for dcpos in domain theory. We first show that monotone determined spaces are exactly the spaces generated by one-point convergence spaces, and then naturally…
A subset $A$ of a vector space $X$ is called $\alpha$-lineable whenever $A$ contains, except for the null vector, a subspace of dimension $\alpha$. If $X$ has a topology, then $A$ is $\alpha$-spaceable if such subspace can be chosen to be…
Suppose that \Delta, \Delta' are two buildings each arising from a semisimpe algebraic group over a field, a topological field in the former case, and that for both the buildings the Coxeter diagram has no isolated nodes. We give conditions…
A little-known and highly economical characterization of the real interval [0, 1], essentially due to Freyd, states that the interval is homeomorphic to two copies of itself glued end to end, and, in a precise sense, is universal as such.…
We investigate the configuration space of the Delta-Manipulator, identify 24 points in the configuration space, where the Jacobian of the Constraint Equations looses rank and show, that these are not manifold points of the Real Algebraic…
We define and give explicit construction of the universal tree-graded space with a given collection of pieces. We apply that to proving uniqueness of asymptotic cones of relatively hyperbolic groups whose peripheral subgroups have unique…
In a previous effort [arXiv:1708.05492] we have created a framework that explains why topological structures naturally arise within a scientific theory; namely, they capture the requirements of experimental verification. This is…
In this paper we define a family of topological spaces, which contains and vastly generalizes the higher-dimensional Dunce hats. Our definition is purely combinatorial, and is phrased in terms of identifications of boundary simplices of…
We introduce the notion of metric semilattice on the metric space and prove the criterion of $\R$-tree as connected geodesic metric space $X$ admitting the partial order, such that $X$ is semilinear metric semilattice. Also we state the…
The recent literature offers examples, specific and hand-crafted, of Tychonoff spaces (in ZFC) which respond negatively to these questions, due respectively to Ceder and Pearson (1967) and to Comfort and Garc\'ia-Ferreira (2001): (1) Is…
Let $G$ be a finitely generated Kleinian group and let $\Delta$ be an invariant collection of components in its region of discontinuity. The Teichm\"uller space $T(\Delta,G)$ supported in $\Delta$, is the space of equivalence classes of…
Wheeler emphasized the study of Superspace - the space of 3-geometries on a spatial manifold of fixed topology. This is a configuration space for GR; knowledge of configuration spaces is useful as regards dynamics and QM.In this Article I…
The enumeration degrees of sets of natural numbers can be identified with the degrees of difficulty of enumerating neighborhood bases of points in a universal second-countable $T_0$-space (e.g. the $\omega$-power of the Sierpi\'nski space).…
The Urysohn space is the unique separable metric space that is universal and homogeneous for finite metric spaces, i.e., it embeds any finite metric space any isometry between finite subspaces extends to an isometry of the whole space. We…
We introduce the notion of a "graded topological space": a topological space endowed with a sheaf of abelian groups which we think of as a sheaf of gradings. Any object living on a graded topological space will be graded by this sheaf of…
The coarse similarity class $[A]$ of $A$ is the set of all $B$ whose symmetric difference with $A$ has asymptotic density 0. There is a natural metric $\delta$ on the space $\mathcal{S}$ of coarse similarity classes defined by letting…
For a smooth spacetime $X$, based on the timelike homotopy classes of its timelike paths, we define a topology on $X$ that refines the Alexandrov topology and always coincides with the manifold topology. The space of timelike or causal…
A regular topological space $X$ is defined to be a $\mathfrak P_0$-space if it has countable Pytkeev network. A network $\mathcal N$ for $X$ is called a Pytkeev network if for any point $x\in X$, neighborhood $O_x\subset X$ of $x$ and…
