We prove that every homomorphism from the fundamental group of a planar Peano continuum to the fundamental group of a planar or one-dimensional Peano continuum is induced by a continuous map up to conjugation. This is then used to provide a…

We prove that closed manifolds admitting a generic metric whose sectional curvature is locally quasi-constant are graphs of space forms. In the more general setting of QC spaces where sets of isotropic points are arbitrary, under suitable…

For every triple of integers a, b, and c, such that a>O, b>0, and c>1, there is a homogeneous, non-bihomogeneous continuum whose every point has a neighborhood homeomorphic the Cartesian product of three Menger compacta m^a, m^b, and m^c.…

In a metric space, such as the real numbers with their standard metric, a set A is open if and only if no sequence with terms outside of A has a limit inside A. Moreover, a metric space is compact if and only if every sequence has a…

Surfaces of finite geometric type are complete, immersed into the tree-dimensional Euclidean space with finite total curvature and Gauss map extending to an oriented compact surface as a smooth branched covering map over the unit sphere of…

We show that locally connected, simply connected homogeneous continua are not separated by arcs. We ask several questions about homogeneous continua which are inspired by analogous questions in geometric group theory.

For $C^0$ generic continuous maps or homeomorphisms on compact Riemannian manifold, we prove that (1) the space of physical-like measures coincides with the set of invariant measures supported on chain recurrent classes, (2) every point in…

We show that the first homology group of a locally connected compact metric space is either uncountable or is finitely generated. This is related to Shelah's well-known result which shows that the fundamental group of such a space satisfies…

We show that on a totally disconnected compact metric space every separating homeomorphisms is expansive except at periodic points. We conclude that minimal separating homeomorphisms are expansive and that every separating homeomorphism has…

Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold without boundary. Based on results by Good and Meddaugh (2020), we prove that a strong distributional chaos is $C^0$-generic in the space of continuous self-maps (resp. homeomorphisms) of $M$. The…

On closed symplectically aspherical manifolds, Schwarz proved a classical result that the action function of a nontrivial Hamiltonian diffeomorphism is not constant by using Floer homology. In this article, we generalize Schwarz's theorem…

This thesis concerns the relationship between bounded and controlled topology and how these can be used to recognise which homotopy equivalences of reasonable topological spaces are homotopic to homeomorphisms. Let $f:X\to Y$ be a…

In this paper, we construct cw-expansive homeomorphisms on compact surfaces of genus greater than or equal to zero with a fixed point whose local stable set is connected but not locally connected. This provides an affirmative answer to…

Let X be a h-homogeneous zero-dimensional compact Hausdorff space, i.e. X is a Stone dual of a homogeneous Boolean algebra. It is shown that the universal minimal space M(G) of the topological group G=Homeo(X), is the space of maximal…

We construct a continuum of non-homeomorphic compact subspaces of the real line R without singleton components. Thus from the purely topological point of view the real line contains not only more closed sets than open sets but also more…

We show that any collection of n-dimensional orbifolds with sectional curvature and volume uniformly bounded below, diameter bounded above, and with only isolated singular points contains orbifolds of only finitely many orbifold…

The starting point of this paper is the existence of Peano curves, that is, continuous surjections mapping the unit interval onto the unit square. From this fact one can easily construct of a continuous surjection from the real line…

The goal of this paper is to generalize some of the existing toolkit of combinatorial algebraic topology in order to study the homology of abstract chain complexes. We define shellability of chain complexes in a similar way as for cell…

We study locally flat, compact, oriented surfaces in $4$-manifolds whose exteriors have infinite cyclic fundamental group. We give algebraic topological criteria for two such surfaces, with the same genus $g$, to be related by an ambient…

We investigate the mapping class group of an orientable $\omega$-bounded surface. Such a surface splits, by Nyikos's Bagpipe Theorem, into a union of a bag (a compact surface with boundary) and finitely many long pipes. The subgroup…
