On symplectic cobordism of real projective plane.

Malkhaz Bakuradze (2000)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

This note answers a question of V. V. Vershinin concerning the properties of Buchstaber's elements Θ2i+1(2) in the symplectic cobordism ring of the real projective plane. It is motivated by Roush's famous result that the restriction of these elements to the projective line is trivial, and by the relationship with obstructions to multiplication in symplectic cobordism with singularities.

On the Bézout equation in the ring of periodic distributions

Rudolf Rupp, Amol Sasane (2016)

Topological Algebra and its Applications

A corona type theorem is given for the ring D'A(Rd) of periodic distributions in Rd in terms of the sequence of Fourier coefficients of these distributions,which have at most polynomial growth. It is also shown that the Bass stable rank and the topological stable rank of D'A(Rd) are both equal to 1.

On the first homology of Peano continua

Gregory R. Conner, Samuel M. Corson (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We show that the first homology group of a locally connected compact metric space is either uncountable or finitely generated. This is related to Shelah's well-known result (1988) which shows that the fundamental group of such a space satisfies a similar condition. We give an example of such a space whose fundamental group is uncountable but whose first homology is trivial, showing that our result does not follow from Shelah's. We clarify a claim made by Pawlikowski (1998) and offer a proof of the...
