Metrizable completely distributive lattices

Zhang De-Xue (1997)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The purpose of this paper is to study the topological properties of the interval topology on a completely distributive lattice. The main result is that a metrizable completely distributive lattice is an ANR if and only if it contains at most finite completely compact elements.

Notes on Retracts of Coset Spaces

J. van Mill, G. J. Ridderbos (2005)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We study retracts of coset spaces. We prove that in certain spaces the set of points that are contained in a component of dimension less than or equal to n, is a closed set. Using our techniques we are able to provide new examples of homogeneous spaces that are not coset spaces. We provide an example of a compact homogeneous space which is not a coset space. We further provide an example of a compact metrizable space which is a retract of a homogeneous compact space, but which is not a retract of...

On confluently graph-like compacta

Lex G. Oversteegen, Janusz R. Prajs (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

For any class 𝒦 of compacta and any compactum X we say that: (a) X is confluently 𝒦-representable if X is homeomorphic to the inverse limit of an inverse sequence of members of 𝒦 with confluent bonding mappings, and (b) X is confluently 𝒦-like provided that X admits, for every ε >0, a confluent ε-mapping onto a member of 𝒦. The symbol 𝕃ℂ stands for the class of all locally connected compacta. It is proved in this paper that for each compactum X and each family 𝒦 of graphs, X is confluently...

On regular Stein neighborhoods of a union of two totally real planes in ℂ²

Tadej Starčič (2016)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We find regular Stein neighborhoods of a union of totally real planes M = (A+iI)ℝ² and N = ℝ² in ℂ², provided that the entries of a real 2 × 2 matrix A are sufficiently small. A key step in our proof is a local construction of a suitable function ρ near the origin. The sublevel sets of ρ are strongly Levi pseudoconvex and admit strong deformation retraction to M ∪ N.
