A configuration space of intervals in $\mathbb R^1$ with partially summable labels is constructed. It is a kind of an extension of the configuration space with partially summable labels constructed by the second author and at the same time…

The space of all finite non-empty subsets of a topological space $X$, also known as the Ran space of $X$, is weakly contractible for $X$ path connected. We consider subspaces $\mathrm{Ran}_{\leqslant n}(X)$ of the Ran space given by all…

We say that a sequence of proper geodesic spaces $X_n$ consists of \textit{almost homogeneous spaces} if there is a sequence of discrete groups of isometries $G_n \leq \text{Iso}(X_n)$ with $\text{diam} (X_n/G_n)\to 0$ as $n \to \infty$. We…

By considering labeled configurations of ``bounded multiplicity'', one can construct a functor that fits between homology and stable homotopy. Based on previous work, we are able to give an equivalent description of this labeled…

Let $X$ be a compact toric variety. Let $Hol$ denote the space of based holomorphic maps from $CP^1$ to $X$ which lie in a fixed homotopy class. Let $Map$ denote the corresponding space of continuous maps. We show that $Hol$ has the same…

For a real $r\geq 0,$ we consider the notion of $r$-homotopy equivalence in the category quasimetric spaces, which includes metric spaces and directed graphs. We show that for a finite quasimetric space $X$ there is a unique (up to…

In this work, we compare the two approximations of a path-connected space $X$, by the Ganea spaces $G_n(X)$ and by the realizations $\|\Lambda_\bullet X\|_{n}$ of the truncated simplicial resolutions emerging from the loop-suspension…

We show that a connected finite topological space with $12$ or less points has a weak homotopy type of a wedge of spheres. In other words, we show that the order complex of a connected finite poset with $12$ or less points has a homotopy…

In this paper we show that the space of holomorphic immersions from any given open Riemann surface, $M$, into the Riemann sphere $\mathbb{CP}^1$ is weakly homotopy equivalent to the space of continuous maps from $M$ to the complement of the…

The main result in this paper is that the space of all smooth links in Euclidean 3-space isotopic to the trivial link of n components has the same homotopy type as its finite-dimensional subspace consisting of configurations of n unlinked…

Let $S$ be a complete flat surface, such as the Euclidean plane. We determine the homeomorphism class of the space of all curves on $S$ which start and end at given points in given directions and whose curvatures are constrained to lie in a…

Our main result is a recognition principle for iterated suspensions as coalgebras over the little disks operads. Given a topological operad, we construct a comonad in pointed topological spaces endowed with the wedge product. We then prove…

We establish a higher Freudenthal suspension theorem and prove that the derived fundamental adjunction comparing spaces with coalgebra spaces over the homotopical iterated suspension-loop comonad, via iterated suspension, can be turned into…

The normalized singular chains of a path connected pointed space $X$ may be considered as a connected $E_{\infty}$-coalgebra $\mathbf{C}_*(X)$ with the property that the $0^{\text{th}}$ homology of its cobar construction, which is naturally…

Generalising Segal's approach to 1-fold loop spaces, the homotopy theory of $n$-fold loop spaces is shown to be equivalent to the homotopy theory of reduced $\Theta_n$-spaces, where $\Theta_n$ is an iterated wreath product of the simplex…

For a smooth spacetime $X$, based on the timelike homotopy classes of its timelike paths, we define a topology on $X$ that refines the Alexandrov topology and always coincides with the manifold topology. The space of timelike or causal…

We define the notion of {\em classifying space} of a topological stack and show that every topological stack \X has a classifying space X which is a topological space well-defined up to weak homotopy equivalence. Under a certain…

In a recent paper \cite{T} the fact that a class of locally compact metric spaces $X$, among which are Euclidean spaces, are not homemorphic to their punctured version $X\men\{p\}$, was given an interesting new proof which does not use…

For $a\in [0,+\infty)$, the function space $E_{\geq a}$ ($E_{>a}$; $E_{\leq a}$; $E_{<a}$) of all continuous maps from $[0,1]$ to itself whose topological entropies are larger than or equal to $a$ (larger than $a$; smaller than or equal to…

Given two real algebraic varieties X and Y, we denote by R(X,Y) the set of all regular maps from X to Y. The set R(X,Y) is regarded as a topological subspace of the space C(X,Y) of all continuous maps from X to Y endowed with the…
