In the first part of the work (Sections 2-6) a special attention is given to relative separation axioms and relative connectedness, in particular, many relative versions of p-T_0, p-T_1, p-T_2, (i,j)- and p-regularities, (i,j)- and…

The sum theorem and its corollaries are proved for a countable family of zero-dimensional (in the sense of small and large inductive bidimensions) p-closed sets, using a new notion of relative normality whose topological correspondent is…

A reparametrization (of a continuous path) is given by a surjective weakly increasing self-map of the unit interval. We show that the monoid of reparametrizations (with respect to compositions) can be understood via ``stop-maps'' that allow…

We study relatively minimal subgroups in topological groups. We find, in particular, some natural relatively minimal subgroups in unipotent groups which are defined over "good" rings. By "good" rings we mean archimedean absolute valued (not…

A compact Hausdorff space X is called a CO space, if every closed subset of X is homeomorphic to an open subset of X. Every successor ordinal with its order topology is a CO space. We find an explicit characterization of the class K of CO…

Let X be a topological space. The closure of \Delta = {(x, x) : x \in X} in X \times X is a symmetric relation on X. We characterise those equivalence relations on an infinite set that arise as the closure of the diagonal with respect to a…

The paper is devoted to generalization of well-known Michael's Selection theorem on the case of extension dimension.

We give a topological characterization of the n-dimensional pseudo-boundary of the (2n+1)-dimensional Euclidean space.

We obtain several results and examples concerning the general question ``When must a space with a small diagonal have a G_delta-diagonal?". In particular, we show (1) every compact metrizably fibered space with a small diagonal is…

Extension dimension is characterized in terms of $\omega$-maps. We apply this result to prove that extension dimension is preserved by refinable maps between metrizable spaces. It is also shown that refinable maps preserve some…

For any countable $CW$-complex $K$ and a cardinal number $\tau\geq\omega$ we construct a completely metrizable space $X(K,\tau)$ of weight $\tau$ with the following properties: $\e X(K,\tau)\leq K$, $X(K,\tau)$ is an absolute extensor for…

We discuss compact Hausdorff groups from the point of view of the general theory of absolute extensors. In particular, we characterize the class of simple, connected and simply connected compact Lie groups as AE(2)-groups the third homotopy…

Topological characterization of torus groups is given.

It is shown, under the assumption of Jensen's principle $\lozenge$, that if for a complex L with $[L] \geq [S^{4}]$ there exists a metrizable compactum whose extension dimension is L, then there exists a differentiable, countably compact,…

We show that for each countable simplicial complex P the following conditions are equivalent: (1) $P \in AE(X)$ iff $P \in AE(\beta X)$ for any space X; (2) There exists a P-invertible map of a metrizable compactum X with $P \in AE(X)$ onto…

We characterize AE(0)-spaces that are Baire isomorphic to the powers of the real line.

By a Knaster continuum we understand the inverse limit of copies of [0,1] with open bonding maps. We prove that for any two Knaster continua K_1 and K_2, there are 2^\aleph_0 distinct homotopy types of maps of K_1 onto K_2 that map the…

The aim of this paper is sketch a theory of divisibility and factorisation in topological monoids, where finite products are replaced by convergent products. The algebraic case can then be viewed as the special case of discretely…

The natural duality between "topological" and "regular," both considered as convergence space properties, extends naturally to p-regular convergence spaces, resulting in the new concept of a p-topological convergence space. Taking advantage…

A space X is called an alpha-Toronto space if X is scattered of Cantor-Bendixson rank alpha and is homeomorphic to each of its subspaces of same rank. We answer a question of Steprans by constructing a countable alpha-Toronto space for each…
