We consider the space of non-expansive mappings on a bounded, closed and convex subset of a Banach space equipped with the metric of uni- form convergence. We show that the set of strict contractions is a {\sigma}-porous subset.

\emph{Scalable spaces} are simply connected compact manifolds or finite complexes whose real cohomology algebra embeds in their algebra of (flat) differential forms. This is a rational homotopy invariant property and all scalable spaces are…

In the present paper we establish that the space $\exp_\beta X$ of compact subsets of a Tychonoff space $X$ is superparacompact iff $X$ is so. Further, we prove the Tychonoff map $\exp_{\beta} f:\ \exp_{\beta} X\rightarrow \exp_{\beta} Y$…

We investigate nicely embedded H--holomorphic maps into stable Hamiltonian three--manifolds. In particular we prove that such maps locally foliate and satisfy a no--first--intersection property. Using the compactness results of…

It is shown that if $C$ is a nonempty convex and weakly compact subset of a Banach space $X$ with $M(X)>1$ and $T:C\rightarrow C$ satisfies condition $(C)$ or is continuous and satisfies condition $(C_{\lambda})$ for some $\lambda \in…

We study the metric projection onto the closed convex cone in a real Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$ generated by a sequence $\mathcal{V} = \{v_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$. The first main result of this paper provides a sufficient condition under which…

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…

It is shown that, assuming the Continuum Hypothesis, compact Hausdorff space of weight at most $\mathfrak{c}$ is a remainder in a soft compactification of $\mathbb{N}$. We also exhibit an example of a compact space of weight $\aleph_1$ --…

It is shown that convex hypersurfaces in Hilbert spaces have nonnegative Alexandrov curvature. This extends an earlier result of Buyalo for convex hypersurfaces in Riemannian manifolds of finite dimension.

Invariants for Riemann surfaces covered by the disc and for hyperbolic manifolds in general involving minimizing the measure of the image over the homotopy and homology classes of closed curves and maps of the $k$-sphere into the manifold…

In this article, let $\Sigma\subset\R^{2n}$ be a compact convex hypersurface which is symmetric with respect to the origin. We prove that if $\Sg$ carries finitely many geometrically distinct closed characteristics, then at least $n-1$ of…

The main result states that a connected conic singular sub-manifold of a Riemannian manifold, compact when the ambient manifold is non-Euclidean, is Lipschitz Normally Embedded: the outer and inner metric space structures are metrically…

We obtain a compact Sobolev embedding for $H$-invariant functions in compact metric-measure spaces, where $H$ is a subgroup of the measure preserving bijections. In Riemannian manifolds, $H$ is a subgroup of the volume preserving…

We give a new proof, using comparatively simple techniques, of the Sullivan conjecture: the space of pointed maps from the classifying space of the cyclic group of order $p$ to any finite-dimensional CW complex $K$ is contractible.

We show that constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in $\mathbb H^n\times\mathbb R$, with small and pinched boundary contained in a horizontal slice $P$ are topological disks, provided they are contained in one of the two halfspaces…

In this paper the theory of uniformly convex metric spaces is developed. These spaces exhibit a generalized convexity of the metric from a fixed point. Using a (nearly) uniform convexity property a simple proof of reflexivity is presented…

A representation of a finitely generated group into the projective general linear group is called convex co-compact if it has finite kernel and its image acts convex co-compactly on a properly convex domain in real projective space. We…

The stability of the system is an important part of the research on differential dynamical systems. This paper considers a pointwise hyperbolic system defined on a connected open subset N of a compact smooth Riemannian manifold M. The…

We consider the $(1,2)$-Sobolev space $W^{1,2}(U)$ on subsets $U$ in an abstract Wiener space, which is regarded as a canonical Dirichlet space on $U$. We prove that $W^{1,2}(U)$ has smooth cylindrical functions as a dense subset if $U$ is…

In this paper, we prove the existence of smooth, entire, strictly convex, spacelike, constant $\sigma_k$ curvature hypersurfaces with prescribed lightlike directions in Minkowski space. This is equivalent to prove the existence of smooth,…
