A de Rham theorem in the context of noncommutative geometry.
We show that the Cartesian product of three hereditarily infinite-dimensional compact metric spaces is never hereditarily infinite-dimensional. It is quite surprising that the proof of this fact (and this is the only proof known to the author) essentially relies on algebraic topology.
The paper studies applications of -algebras in geometric topology. Namely, a covariant functor from the category of mapping tori to a category of -algebras is constructed; the functor takes continuous maps between such manifolds to stable homomorphisms between the corresponding -algebras. We use this functor to develop an obstruction theory for the torus bundles of dimension , and . In conclusion, we consider two numerical examples illustrating our main results.
Here we prove an o-minimal fixed point theorem for definable continuous maps on definably compact definable sets, generalizing Brumfiel’s version of the Hopf fixed point theorem for semi-algebraic maps.
In this paper we find a formula for the rational LS-category of certain elliptic spaces which generalizes or complements previous work of the subject. This formula is given in terms of the minimal model of the space.
