How many two-cells must two finite CW-complexes have to admit a common, but not finite common, covering? Leighton's theorem says that both complexes must have two-cells. We construct an almost (?) minimal example with two two-cells in each…
We show if $A$ is a finite CW-complex such that algebraic theories detect mapping spaces out of $A$, then $A$ has the homology type of a wedge of spheres of the same dimension. Furthermore, if $A$ is simply connected then $A$ has the…
This article introduces descriptive cellular homology on cell complexes, which is an extension of J.H.C. Whitehead's CW topology. A main result is that a descriptive cellular complex is a topology on fibres in a fibre bundle. An application…
In this note we introduce the concept of a quasi-finite complex. Next, we show that for a given countable and locally finite CW complex L the following conditions are equivalent: (i) L is quasi-finite. (ii) There exists a [L]-invertible…
Finite-sheeted covering mappings onto compact connected groups are studied. It is shown that a finite-sheeted covering mapping from a connected Hausdorff topological space onto a compact connected abelian group G must be a homeomorphism…
A category is adhesive if it has all pullbacks, all pushouts along monomorphisms, and all exactness conditions between pullbacks and pushouts along monomorphisms which hold in a topos. This condition can be modified by considering only…
We prove that the group of homotopy classes of relative homotopy automorphisms of a simply connected finite CW-complex is finitely presented and that the rationalization map from this group to its rational analogue has a finite kernel.
Given any subvariety of a complex torus defined over $\mathbb{Z}$ and any positive integer $k$, we construct a finite CW complex $X$ such that the $k$-th cohomology jump locus of $X$ is equal to the chosen subvariety, and the $i$-th…
We describe a new method for constructing a weight structure $w$ on a triangulated category $C$. For a given $C$ and $w$ it allow us to give a fairly comprehensive (and new) description of those triangulated categories consisting of…
We show that tree almost automorphism groups, including Neretin groups, satisfy the analogue of the $F_\infty$-finiteness condition in the world of totally disconnected groups: They possess a cellular action on a contractible cellular…
This paper expands on and refines some known and less well-known results about the finite subset spaces of a simplicial complex $X$ including their connectivity and their top homology groups. It also discusses the inclusion of the…
A topological setting is defined to study the complexities of the relation of equivalence of embeddings (or "position") of a Banach space into another and of the relation of isomorphism of complex structures on a real Banach space. The…
We show that a totally geodesic submanifold of a symmetric space satisfying certain conditions admits an extension to a minimal submanifold of dimension one higher, and we apply this result to construct new examples of complete embedded…
In this survey, my aim has been to discuss the use of sequences and countable sets in general topology. In this way I have been led to consider five different classes of topological spaces: first countable spaces, sequential spaces, Frechet…
We study branched covering spaces in several contexts, proving that under suitable circumstances the cover satisfies the same upper curvature bounds as the base space. The first context is of a branched cover of an arbitrary metric space…
The self-closeness number of a CW-complex is a homotopy invariant defined by the minimal number $n$ such that every self-maps of $X$ which induces automorphisms on the first $n$ homotopy groups of $X$ is a homotopy equivalence. In this…
We construct uncountably many simply connected open 3-manifolds with genus one ends homeomorphic to the Cantor set. Each constructed manifold has the property that any self homeomorphism of the manifold (which necessarily extends to a…
In this paper, using some properties of fundamental groups and covering spaces of connected polyhedra and CW-complexes, we present topological proof for some famous theorems about finitely presented groups.
We introduce notions of compactness and weak compactness for multilinear maps from a product of normed spaces to a normed space, and prove some general results about these notions. We then consider linear maps $T:A\to B$ between Banach…
Take finitely many topological spaces and for each pair of these spaces choose a pair of corresponding closed subspaces that are identified by a homeomorpism. We note that this gluing procedure does not guarantee that the building pieces,…
