On a question of de Groot and Nishiura

Vitalij A. Chatyrko, Yasunao Hattori (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let Z = [ 0 , 1 ] n + 1 ( 0 , 1 ) × 0 . Then cmp Zₙ < def Zₙ for n ≥ 5. This is the answer to a question posed by de Groot and Nishiura [GN] for n ≥ 5.

On Applications of Bing-Krasinkiewicz-Lelek Maps

Eiichi Matsuhashi (2007)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We characterize Peano continua using Bing-Krasinkiewicz-Lelek maps. Also we deal with some topics on Whitney preserving maps.

On character of points in the Higson corona of a metric space

Taras O. Banakh, Ostap Chervak, Lubomyr Zdomskyy (2013)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We prove that for an unbounded metric space X , the minimal character 𝗆 χ ( X ˇ ) of a point of the Higson corona X ˇ of X is equal to 𝔲 if X has asymptotically isolated balls and to max { 𝔲 , 𝔡 } otherwise. This implies that under 𝔲 < 𝔡 a metric space X of bounded geometry is coarsely equivalent to the Cantor macro-cube 2 < if and only if dim ( X ˇ ) = 0 and 𝗆 χ ( X ˇ ) = 𝔡 . This contrasts with a result of Protasov saying that under CH the coronas of any two asymptotically zero-dimensional unbounded metric separable spaces are homeomorphic.

On countable dense and strong n-homogeneity

Jan van Mill (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We prove that if a space X is countable dense homogeneous and no set of size n-1 separates it, then X is strongly n-homogeneous. Our main result is the construction of an example of a Polish space X that is strongly n-homogeneous for every n, but not countable dense homogeneous.
