We give a new and elementary proof showing that a homeomorphism of a compact metric space is positively expansive if and only if the space is finite.

We consider a homeomorphism on a totally disconnected, compact metric space and define a binary relation on the family of clopen subsets. We will show that the comparability of any clopen sets with respect to the relation is equivalent to…

Let $X, Y$ be separable metrizable spaces, where $X$ is noncompact and $Y$ is equipped with an admissible complete metric $d$. We show that the space $C(X,Y)$ of continuous maps from $X$ into $Y$ equipped with the uniform topology is…

We study spaces of matrices coming from irreducible representations of reductive groups over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and we completely classify those of constant corank one. In particular, we recover the…

We classify the automorphisms of a Moufang hexagon mapping no chamber to an opposite chamber (such automorphisms are called domestic). This forms part of a larger program to classify domestic automorphisms of Moufang spherical buildings.

Let S denote the family of all subspaces of the plane that are graphs of functions from the real line R to itself. We prove that S has two subfamilies G,H of spaces such that the cardinality of G is c (the cardinality of the continuum) and…

In the hyperspace of subcontinua of a compact surface we consider a second order Hausdorff distance. This metric space is compactified in such a way that the stable foliation of a pseudo-Anosov map is naturally identified with a…

We study several natural classes of graphs on a zero-dimensional metrizable compact space having no continuous coloring. We compare these graphs with the quasi-order associated with injective continuous homomorphisms. We prove the existence…

We study expansive dynamical systems from the viewpoint of general topology. We introduce the notions of orbit and refinement expansivity on topological spaces extending expansivity in the compact metric setting. Examples are given on…

We have studied homeomorphisms that satisfy the Poletsky-type inverse inequality in the domain of the Euclidean space. It is proved that the uniform limit of the family of such homeomorphisms is either a homeomorphism into the Euclidean…

We show that any quantum family of maps from a non commutative space to a compact quantum metric space has a canonical quantum semi metric structure.

On subsets E of the Mandelbrot set M, homeomorphisms are constructed by quasi-conformal surgery. When the dynamics of quadratic polynomials is changed piecewise by a combinatorial construction, a general theorem yields the corresponding…

We show that for any connected smooth manifold $M$ of dimension different from $3$ the restriction of the compact-open topology to the diffeomorphism group of $M$ is minimal, i.e. the group does not admit a strictly coarser Hausdorff group…

We exhibit a family of complex manifolds, which has a member at each odd complex dimension and which has the same cohomology groups as the complex projective space at that dimension, but not homotopy equivalent to it. We also analyze the…

We show that among compact subsets of the plane which are drawings of linear graphs, two sets $\sigma$ and $\tau$ are homeomorphic if and only if the corresponding spaces of absolutely continuous functions (in the sense of Ashton and Doust)…

This is a survey of the recent results and unsolved problems about locally compact homogeneous metric spaces. Mostly, homogeneous finite-dimensional $ANR$-spaces are discussed.

In this paper, we firstly discuss the question: Is $l_{2}^{\infty}$ homeomorphic to a rectifiable space or a paratopological group? And then, we mainly discuss locally compact rectifiable spaces, and show that a locally compact and…

We establish a bijection between the set of finite topological $T_0$-spaces (or partially ordered sets) and equivalence classes of square matrices. The absolute value of the determinant or the rank of these matrices serve as simple homotopy…

We investigate the geometry of the family $\cal M$ of isometry classes of compact metric spaces, endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff metric. We show that sufficiently small neighborhoods of generic finite spaces in the subspace of all finite…

Hurewicz' characterized the dimension of separable metrizable spaces by means of finite-to-one maps. We investigate whether this characterization also holds in the class of compact F-spaces of weight c. Our main result is that, assuming the…
