It is well known that a compact two dimensional surface is homeomorphic to a polygon with the edges identified in pairs. This paper not only presents a new proof of this statement but also generalizes it for any connected n-dimensional…

We study the existence of non-separable compact spaces that support a measure and are small from the topological point of view. In particular, we show that under Martin's axiom there is a non-separable compact space supporting a measure…

This paper concerns a study of three families of non-compact type symmetric spaces of infinite dimension. Although they have infinite dimension they have finite rank. More precisely, we show they have finite telescopic dimension. We also…

This paper concerns the self-similarity of topological spaces, in the sense defined in math.DS/0411344. I show how to recognize self-similar spaces, or more precisely, universal solutions of self-similarity systems. Examples include the…

We show that there is a compact topological space carrying a measure which is not a weak* limit of finitely supported measures but is in the sequential closure of the set of such measures. We construct compact spaces with measures of…

Our main result states that the hyperspace of convex compact subsets of a compact convex subset $X$ in a locally convex space is an absolute retract if and only if $X$ is an absolute retract of weight $\le\omega_1$. It is also proved that…

We study families of submanifolds in symmetric spaces of compact type arising as exponential images of s-orbits of variable radii. Special attention is given to the cases where the s-orbits are symmetric.

In a previous paper, we obtained a cohomological obstruction to the existence of compact manifolds locally modelled on a homogeneous space. In this paper, we give a classification of the semisimple symmetric spaces to which this obstruction…

The space of unitary $C_{0}$-semigroups on separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space, when viewed under the topology of uniform weak convergence on compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}_{+}$, is known to admit various interesting residual…

In this note, we consider the space $H(\Omega)^{\mathbb N}$ of sequences of holomorphic functions on an open set $\Omega\subset {\mathbb C}$. If $H(\Omega)$ is endowed with its natural topology and $H(\Omega)^{\mathbb N}$ is endowed with…

In this paper, we discuss the associated family of harmonic maps $\mathcal{F}: M \rightarrow G/K$ from a Riemann surface $M$ into inner symmetric spaces of compact or non-compact type which are either algebraic or totally symmetric. These…

In this paper, we examine the notion of topological stability and its relation to the shadowing properties in zero-dimensional spaces. Several counter-examples on the topological stability and the shadowing properties are given. Also, we…

We study directed sets definable in o-minimal structures, showing that in expansions of ordered fields these admit cofinal definable curves, as well as a suitable analogue in expansions of ordered groups, and furthermore that no analogue…

A Polish space is not always homeomorphic to a computably presented Polish space. In this article, we examine degrees of non-computability of presenting homeomorphic copies of compact Polish spaces. We show that there exists a…

Starting from compact symmetric spaces of inner type, we provide infinite families of compact homogeneous spaces carrying invariant non-flat Bismut connections with vanishing Ricci tensor. These examples turn out to be generalized symmetric…

An S-approximation space is a novel approach to study systems with uncertainty that are not expressible in terms of inclusion relations. In this work, we further examined these spaces, mostly from a topological point of view by a…

Let $\MSpace$ be a locally compact metric space and let $\pMap:\MSpace\to\MSpace$ be a not expansive map. We prove that for each $\ppa_0\in\MSpace$ the sequence $\ppa_0,\pMap(\ppa_0),\pMap^2(\ppa_0),\ldots$ is either relatively compact in…

Metrizable spaces are studied in which every closed set is an $\alpha$-limit set for some continuous map and some point. It is shown that this property is enjoyed by every space containing sufficiently many arcs (formalized in the notion of…

A topological space is called P_2 ( P_3, P_{<omega} ) if and only if it does not contain two (three, finitely many) uncountable open sets with empty intersection. We show that (i) there are 0-dimensional P_{<omega} spaces of size 2^omega,…

Suppose G is a topological group containing a (closed) topological copy of the Frechet-Urysohn fan. If G is a perfectly normal sequential space (a normal k-space) then every closed metrizable subset in $G$ is locally compact. Applying this…
