We survey, and extend, results on the adjoint action of the homeomorphism group $H(X)$ on the space of surjective continuous maps, $C_s(X)$, where $X$ is a Cantor set. We look also at the restriction of the action to various dynamically…

We study topological properties of conjugacy classes in Polish groups, with emphasis on automorphism groups of homogeneous countable structures. We first consider the existence of dense conjugacy classes (the topological Rokhlin property).…

For a Cantor set $X$, let $Homeo(X)$ denote the group of all homeomorphisms of $X$. The main result of this note is the following theorem. Let $T\in Homeo(X)$ be an aperiodic homeomorphism, let $\mu_1,\mu_2,...,\mu_k$ be Borel probability…

We continue to study topological properties of the group Homeo(X) of all homeomorphisms of a Cantor set X with respect to the uniform topology tau, which was started in the paper (S. Bezuglyi, A.H. Dooley, and J. Kwiatkowski, Topologies on…

We show that if a separable space X has a meager open subset containing a copy of the Cantor set 2^\omega, then X has $\frak{c}$ types of countable dense subsets. We suggest a generalization of the \lambda-set for non-separable spaces. Let…

We construct homeomorphisms of compacta from relations between finite graphs representing their open covers. Applied to the pseudoarc, this yields simple Fra\"iss\'e theoretic proofs of several important results, both old and new.…

Let $Homeo(\Omega)$ be the group of all homeomorphisms of a Cantor set $\Omega$. We study topological properties of $Homeo(\Omega)$ and its subsets with respect to the uniform $(\tau)$ and weak $(\tau_w)$ topologies. The classes of…

Homeomorphism groups of generalized Wa\.zewski dendrites act on the infinite countable set of branch points of the dendrite and thus have a nice Polish topology. In this paper, we study them in the light of this Polish topology. The group…

We study full groups of minimal actions of countable groups by homeomorphisms on a Cantor space $X$, showing that these groups do not admit a compatible Polish group topology and, in the case of $\Z$-actions, are coanalytic non-Borel inside…

We study homeomorphisms and the homeomorphism groups of compact metric spaces using the automorphism groups of projective Fra\"iss\'e limits. In our applications, we investigate the Polish group ${\rm Homeo}(P)$ of all homeomorphisms of the…

It is shown that CH implies the existence of a compact Hausdorff space that is countable dense homogeneous, crowded and does not contain topological copies of the Cantor set. This contrasts with a previous result by the author which says…

We prove that the automorphism group of the Urysohn diversity is a universal Polish group. Furthermore we show that the automorphism group of the rational Urysohn diversity has ample generics, a dense conjugacy class and that it embeds…

We examine the Polish group $H_{+}^{AC}$ of order-preserving self-homeomorphisms $f$ of the interval $\left[ 0,1 \right]$ for which both $f$ and $f^{-1}$ are absolutely continuous; in particular, we establish two results. First, we prove…

We show that the group of homeomorphisms of the Cantor set $H(K)$ has ample generics, that is, for every $m$ the diagonal conjugacy action $g\cdot(h_1,h_2,..., h_m)=(gh_1g^{-1},gh_2g^{-1},..., gh_mg^{-1})$ of $H(K)$ on $H(K)^m$ has a…

The deck, $\mathcal{D}(X)$, of a topological space $X$ is the set $\mathcal{D}(X)=\{[X \setminus \{x\}]\colon x \in X\}$, where $[Y]$ denotes the homeomorphism class of $Y$. A space $X$ is (topologically) reconstructible if whenever…

We provide a classification of random orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of $\mathbb{S}^1$, up to topological conjugacy of the random dynamical systems generated by i.i.d. iterates of the random homeomorphism. This classification covers…

In the present note we focus on dynamics on the Gehman dendrite $\mathcal{G}$. It is well-known that the set of its endpoints is homeomorphic to a standard Cantor ternary set. For any given surjective Cantor system $\mathcal{C}$ we provide…

In this paper we develop unifying graph theoretic techniques to study the dynamics and the structure of the space of homeomorphisms and the space of self-maps of the Cantor space. Using our methods, we give characterizations which determine…

Building on results of Medvedev, we construct a $\mathsf{ZFC}$ example of a non-Polish topological group that is countable dense homogeneous. Our example is a dense subgroup of $\mathbb{Z}^\omega$ of size $\mathfrak{b}$ that is a…

Let X be a zero-dimensional compact space such that all non-empty clopen subsets of X are homeomorphic to each other, and let H(X) be the group of all self-homeomorphisms of X with the compact-open topology. We prove that the Roelcke…
