Let X and Y be nonsingular real algebraic varieties, dimX>dimY-1. Assume that the variety Y is malleable, compact and connected. Our main result implies that each regular map from X to Y is homotopic to a surjective regular map. The class…
We introduce and study central types, which are generalizations of Eilenberg-Mac Lane spaces. A type is central when it is equivalent to the component of the identity among its own self-equivalences. From centrality alone we construct an…
It is a prominent conjecture (relating Riemannian geometry and algebraic topology) that all simply-connected compact manifolds of special holonomy should be formal spaces, i.e., their rational homotopy type should be derivable from their…
Let overline{M}_{g,n} be the moduli space of stable algebraic curves of genus g with n marked points. With the operations which relate the different moduli spaces identifying marked points, the family (overline{M}_{g,n})_{g,n} is a modular…
Let $G_{n,k}$ denote the complex Grassmann manifold of $k$-dimensional vector subspaces of $\mathbb{C}^n$. Assume $l,k\le \lfloor n/2\rfloor$. We show that, for sufficiently large $n$, any continuous map $h:G_{n,l}\to G_{n,k}$ is rationally…
Let f : (M,p)\to (M',p') be a formal biholomorphic mapping between two germs of real analytic hypersurfaces in \C^n, p'=f(p). Assuming the source manifold to be minimal at p, we prove the convergence of the so-called reflection function…
A topological space $X$ is said to be {\em $Y$-rigid} if any continuous map $f:X\rightarrow Y$ is constant. In this paper we construct a number of examples of regular countably compact $\mathbb R$-rigid spaces with additional properties…
We provide examples of homogeneous spaces which are neither symmetric spaces nor real cohomology spheres, yet have the property that every invariant metric is geometrically formal. We also extend the known obstructions to geometric…
We show a Gottlieb element in the rational homotopy of a simply connected space $X$ implies a structural result for the Sullivan minimal model, with different results depending on parity. In the even-degree case, we prove a rational…
The normalized cochain complex of a simplicial set N^*(Y) is endowed with the structure of an E_{infinity} algebra. More specifically, we prove in a previous article that N^*(Y) is an algebra over the Barratt-Eccles operad. According to M.…
For each value of $p$ such that $0<p<1$, we give a specific example of two functions in the Hardy space $H^p$ and in the Bergman space $A^p$ that do not satisfy the triangle inequality. For Hardy spaces, this provides a much simpler proof…
We show that cellular approximations of nilpotent Postnikov stages are always nilpotent Postnikov stages, in particular classifying spaces of nilpotent groups are turned into classifying spaces of nilpotent groups. We use a modified…
In this paper we study the rational homotopy of the space of immersions, $Imm\left(M,N\right)$, of a manifold $M$ of dimension $m\geq 0$ into a manifold $N$ of dimension $m+k$, with $k\geq 2$. In the special case when $N=\mathbb{R}^{m+k}$…
We prove the following results. 1. If $X$ is a $\alpha$-favourable space, $Y$ is a regular space, in which every separable closed set is compact, and $f:X\times Y\to\mathbb R$ is a separately continuous everywhere jointly discontinuous…
For any semifinite von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal M}$ and any $1\leq p<\infty$, we introduce a natutal $S^1$-valued noncommutative $L^p$-space $L^p({\mathcal M};S^1)$. We say that a bounded map $T\colon L^p({\mathcal M})\to L^p({\mathcal…
Let $X$ be metrizable, $Y$ be perfectly normal and suppose that there exists a uniformly continuous surjection $T: C_{p}(X) \to C_{p}(Y)$ (resp., $T: C_{p}^*(X) \to C_{p}^*(Y)$), where $C_{p}(X)$ (resp., $C_{p}^*(X)$) denotes the space of…
Assume that all spaces and maps are localised at a fixed prime $p$. We study the possibility of generating a universal space $U(X)$ from a space $X$ which is universal in the category of homotopy associative, homotopy commutative H-spaces…
We say that a real-valued function $f$ defined on a positive Borel measure space $(X,\mu)$ is nowhere $q$-integrable if, for each nonvoid open subset $U$ of $X$, the restriction $f|_U$ is not in $L^q(U)$. When $(X,\mu)$ satisfies some…
The path component space of a topological space $X$ is the quotient space $\pi_0(X)$ whose points are the path components of $X$. We show that every Tychonoff space $X$ is the path-component space of a Tychonoff space $Y$ of weight…
We prove that if $X = X_1 \times \dots \times X_n$ is a product of hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of finite type and $Y = \Omega/\Gamma$ is a complex manifold, where $\Omega$ is a bounded simply-connected domain in $\mathbb{C}^m$, then the…
