We show that if $C_p(X\times Z)$ is homeomorphic to $C_p(Y\times Z)$, where $Z$ is compact, and $X$ and $Y$ are of countable netweight, then $C_p(X\times M)$ is homeomorphic to $C_p(Y\times M)$ for some metric compactum $M$.

We present a characterization of Valdivia compact spaces of small weight in terms of path spaces of trees and we use it to obtain (under $\diamondsuit$) a counterexample to a conjecture related to an open problem concerning twisted sums of…

Given a separable metrisable space X, and a group G of homeomorphisms of X, we introduce a topological property of the action of G on X which is equivalent to the existence of a G-invariant compatible metric on X. This extends a result of…

We prove that if a compact nilmanifold $\Gamma\backslash G$ is endowed with a Vaisman structure, then $G$ is isomorphic to the Cartesian product of the Heisenberg group with $\mathbb{R}$.

We present a series of examples of nondiscrete reflexive P-groups (i.e., groups in which all $G_\delta$-sets are open) as well as noncompact reflexive $\omega$-bounded groups (in which the closure of every countable set is compact). Our…

We consider (compact or noncompact) Lorentzian manifolds whose holonomy group has compact closure. Among other results, we obtain that this property is equivalent to admitting a parallel timelike vector field. We also derive some properties…

We study linearly ordered spaces which are Valdivia compact in their order topology. We find an internal characterization of these spaces and we present a counter-example disproving a conjecture posed earlier by the first author. The…

We classify compact homogeneous geometries of irreducible spherical type and rank at least 2 which admit a transitive action of a compact connected group, up to equivariant 2-coverings. We apply our classification to polar actions on…

We consider metric ultraproducts of finite groups with respect to some classes of length functions. All sofic groups embed into these ultraproducts. We study embeddings of normed groups. We also show that in some natural situations such an…

We prove that the discontinuity group of every locally bounded homomorphism of a Lie group into a Lie group is not only compact and connected, which is known, but is also commutative.

For metrizable spaces we replace the notion of almost periodic homeomorphism with a similar notion and verify that the usual characterizations of almost periodic homeomorphisms of compact metric spaces are valid for all metrizable spaces.

We show a geometric rigidity of isometric actions of non compact (semisimple) Lie groups on Lorentz manifolds. Namely, we show that the manifold has a warped product structure of a Lorentz manifold with constant curvature by a Riemannian…

We study groups of homeomorphic bijections on spaces that are finite unions of compact connected linearly ordered subsets. We prove that all such groups when endowed with the topology of point-wise convergence are topological groups. }

An example is given of a compact absolute retract that is not a Hilbert cube manifold but whose second symmetric porduct is the Hilbert cube. A factor theorem is given for nth symmetric product of the cartesian product of any absolute…

We consider, on a compact manifold, the group of diffeomorphisms that are isotopic to the identity. We show that every recurrent element is a distorsion element. This generalizes Avila's theorem on circle diffeomorphisms. The method also…

Let G be a finite group. We show that the rational homotopy groups of symmetric products of the G-equivariant sphere spectrum are naturally isomorphic to the rational homology groups of certain subcomplexes of the subgroup lattice of G.

An elementary proof is given for the fact that every locally compact subsemigroup of a compact topological group is a closed subgroup. A sample consequence is that every commutative cancellative pseudocompact locally compact Hausdorff…

We construct a path-connected homogenous compactum with cellularity 2^omega that is not homeomorphic to any product of dyadic compacta and first countable compacta. We also prove some closure properties for classes of spaces defined by…

We show that any compact group can be realized as the outer automorphism group of a factor of type II_1. This has been proved in the abelian case by Ioana, Peterson and Popa applying Popa's deformation/rigidity techniques to amalgamated…

By a recent result of Juh\'{a}sz and van Mill, a locally compact topological group whose dense subspaces are all separable is metrizable. In this note we investigate the following question: is every locally compact group having all dense…
