Let $\pi: Y\rightarrow X$ be a continuous surjection between compact Hausdorff spaces $Y$ and $X$ which is irreducible in the sense that if $F\subsetneq Y$ is closed, then $\pi(F)\neq X$. We exhibit isomorphisms between various Boolean…

Let $f\colon X\rightarrow Y$ be a continuous surjection of compact Hausdorff spaces. By $$f_*\colon\mathfrak{M}(X)\rightarrow\mathfrak{M}(Y),\ \mu\mapsto \mu\circ f^{-1} \quad{\rm and}\quad 2^f\colon2^X\rightarrow2^Y,\ A\mapsto f[A]$$ we…

Let $\pi\colon T\times X\rightarrow X$ with phase map $(t,x)\mapsto tx$, denoted $(\pi,T,X)$, be a \textit{semiflow} on a compact Hausdorff space $X$ with phase semigroup $T$. If each $t\in T$ is onto, $(\pi,T,X)$ is called surjective; and…

Let $X$ be metrizable, $Y$ be perfectly normal and suppose that there exists a uniformly continuous surjection $T: C_{p}(X) \to C_{p}(Y)$ (resp., $T: C_{p}^*(X) \to C_{p}^*(Y)$), where $C_{p}(X)$ (resp., $C_{p}^*(X)$) denotes the space of…

In the present paper we investigate the properties of the Hausdorff mapping $\mathcal{H}$, which takes each compact metric space to the space of its nonempty closed subspaces. It is shown that this mapping is nonexpanding (Lipschitz mapping…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space which is locally absolutely retract and let $\phi: C(X)\to C(Y, M_n)$ be a unital homomorphism, where $Y$ is a compact metric space with ${\rm dim}Y\le 2.$ It is proved that there exists a sequence of $n$…

In a previous work we proved that if a finite Borel measure $\mu$ in a Euclidean space has Hausdorff dimension smaller than a positive integer $k$, then the orthogonal projection onto almost every $k$-dimensional linear subspace is…

We give a sufficient criterion, which we call stability, for a coarse Lipschitz map $f$ from a complete manifold $X$ with Ricci curvature bounded below to a proper Hadamard space $Y$ to be within bounded distance of a harmonic map. We prove…

The purpose of this paper is to find conditions for a continuous onto map $\phi\colon X\rightarrow Y$ and its induced map $\phi_*\colon\mathcal{M}^1(X)\rightarrow\mathcal{M}^1(Y)$ to be semi-open, where $X$, $Y$ are compact Hausdorff spaces…

In this paper we develop a technique of constructing uni- formly continuous maps between function spaces Cp(X) endowed with the pointwise topology. We prove that if a space X is compact metrizable and strongly countable-dimensional, then…

Let X be a Hausdorff quotient of a standard space (that is of a locally compact separable metric space). It is shown that the following are equivalent: (i) X is the image of an irreducible quotient map from a standard space; (ii) X has a…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be compact Hausdorff spaces and suppose that there exists a linear continuous surjection $T:C_{p}(X) \to C_{p}(Y)$, where $C_{p}(X)$ denotes the space of all real-valued continuous functions on $X$ endowed with the pointwise…

Let $(M,g)$ be a closed oriented Riemannian $3$-manifold and suppose that there is a strongly irreducible Heegaard splitting $H$. We prove that $H$ is either isotopic to a minimal surface of index at most one or isotopic to the stable…

Let X be a compact (resp. compact and nonsingular) real algebraic variety and let Y be a homogeneous space for some linear real algebraic group. We prove that a continuous (resp. C^infinity) map f:X-->Y can be approximated by regular maps…

In this note we study when an invariant probability measure lifts to an invariant measure. Consider a standard Borel space $X$, a Borel probability measure $\mu$ on $X$, a Borel map $T \colon X \to X$ preserving $\mu$, a compact metric…

In this paper we introduce homological and homotopical Poincar\'e polynomials $P_f(t)$ and $P^{\pi}_f(t)$ of a continuous map $f:X \to Y$ such that if $f:X \to Y$ is a constant map, or more generally, if $Y$ is contractible, then these…

A topological space $G$ is said to be a {\it rectifiable space} provided that there are a surjective homeomorphism $\phi :G\times G\rightarrow G\times G$ and an element $e\in G$ such that $\pi_{1}\circ \phi =\pi_{1}$ and for every $x\in G$…

For each compact almost Kahler manifold $(X,\om,J)$ and an element A of $H_2(X;Z)$, we describe a closed subspace $\ov{\frak M}_{1,k}^0(X,A;J)$ of the moduli space $\ov{\frak M}_{1,k}(X,A;J)$ of stable J-holomorphic genus-one maps such that…

We develop a geometric approach to stable homotopy groups of spheres in the spirit of the work of Pontrjagin and Rokhlin. A new proof of the Hopf Invariant One Theorem by J.F.Adams is obtained in all dimensions except 15 and 31. To prove…

Let F be a finitely generated discrete group. Given a covering map H to G of Lie groups with G either compact or complex reductive, there is an induced covering map Hom(F, H) to Hom(F, G). We show that when the fundamental group of G is…
