Attractors which are Homeomorphic to compact Abelian Groups.
The Vietoris system in strong shape and strong homology
We show that the Vietoris system of a space is isomorphic to a strong expansion of that space in the Steenrod homotopy category, and from this we derive a simple description of strong homology. It is proved that in ZFC strong homology does not have compact supports, and that enforcing compact supports by taking limits leads to a homology functor that does not factor over the strong shape category. For compact Hausdorff spaces strong homology is proved to be isomorphic to Massey's homology.
Continuous Alexander–Spanier cohomology classifies principal bundles with Abelian structure group
We prove that Alexander-Spanier cohomology with coefficients in a topologicalAbelian group G is isomorphic to the group of isomorphism classes of principal bundles with certain Abelian structure groups. The result holds if either X is a CW-space and G arbitrary or if X is metrizable or compact Hausdorff and G an ANR.
