In this paper we study compacta Y that are resolvable by a free p-adic action on a compactum of a lower dimension and focus on compacta Y whose cohomological dimension with respect to the group Z[1/p] is 1.

There are different definitions of homological dimension of metric compacta involving either \v{C}ech homology or exact (Steenrod) homology. In this paper we investigate the relation between these homological dimensions with respect to…

We develop a formalism that allows us to describe Markov compacta with finite sets of diagrams that are building blocks of the entire sequence. This encodes complex, continuous spaces with discrete collections of combinatorial objects. We…

We introduce the notion of asymptotic cohomology based on the bounded cohomology and define cohomological asymptotic dimension $\as_{\Z} X$ of metric spaces. We show that it agrees with the asymptotic dimension $\as X$ when the later is…

We introduce the notion of compactifiable classes -- these are classes of metrizable compact spaces that can be up to homeomorphic copies ``disjointly combined'' into one metrizable compact space. This is witnessed by so-called compact…

Let $X$ be a Hausdorff compact space and $C(X)$ be the algebra of all continuous complex-valued functions on $X$, endowed with the supremum norm. We say that $C(X)$ is (approximately) $n$-th root closed if any function from $C(X)$ is…

We prove that there is a bound on the dimension of the first cohomology group of a finite group with coefficients in an absolutely irreducible in characteristic p in terms of the sectional p-rank of the group.

Let $X$ be a topological space. We consider certain generalized configuration spaces of points on $X$, obtained from the cartesian product $X^n$ by removing some intersections of diagonals. We give a systematic framework for studying the…

We prove that for any prime $p$ the finite $p$-groups of fixed coclass have only finitely many different mod-$p$ cohomology rings between them. This was conjectured by Carlson; we prove it by first proving a stronger version for groups of…

Fine shape, as defined by Melikhov, is an extension of the strong shape category of compacta (compact metrizable topological spaces) to all metrizable spaces, notable for being compatible with both \v{C}ech cohomology and Steenrod-Sitnikov…

For a non-compact metrizable space $X$, let ${\mathcal E}(X)$ be the set of all one-point metrizable extensions of $X$, and when $X$ is locally compact, let ${\mathcal E}_K(X)$ denote the set of all locally compact elements of ${\mathcal…

For a cardinal $\kappa > \omega$ a metric space $X$ is called to be $\kappa$-superuniversal whenever for every metric space $Y$ with $|Y| < \kappa$ every partial isometry from a subset of $Y$ into $X$ can be extended over the whole space…

We construct centrally large subalgebras in crossed products of $C (X, D)$ by automorphisms in which $D$ is simple, $X$ is compact metrizable, the automorphism induces a minimal homeomorphism of $X$, and a mild technical assumption holds.…

Let $G$ be the simple algebraic group $\mathrm{SL}_2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$. Using results of A. Parker, we develop a method which gives, for any $q \in \mathbb{N}$, a closed form…

In the derived category of the category of modules over a commutative Noetherian ring $R$, we define, for an ideal $\fa$ of $R$, two different types of cohomological dimensions of a complex $X$ in a certain subcategory of the derived…

For a metrizable space $X$ of density $\kappa$, let $PM(X)$ be the space of continuous bounded pseudometrics on $X$ endowed with the uniform convergence topology. In this paper, its topology shall be classified as follows: (i) If $X$ is…

Let $(X,\omega)$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold of dimension $n$, and $\theta$ be a closed smooth real $(1,1)$-form representing a big and nef cohomology class. We introduce a metric $d_p, p\geq 1$, on the finite energy space…

This is a detailed introductory survey of the cohomological dimension theory of compact metric spaces.

We study finite foldable cubical complexes of nonpositive curvature (in the sense of A.D. Alexandrov). We show that such a complex X admits a graph of spaces decomposition. It is also shown that when dim X=3, X contains a closed rank one…

For an index set $\Gamma$ and a cardinal number $\kappa$ the $\Sigma_{\kappa}$-product of real lines $\Sigma_{\kappa}(\mathbb{R}^{\Gamma})$ consist of all elements of $\mathbb{R}^{\Gamma}$ with $<\kappa$ nonzero coordinates. A compact space…
