On the uniform perfectness of groups of bundle homeomorphisms

Tomasz Rybicki (2019)

Archivum Mathematicum

Groups of homeomorphisms related to locally trivial bundles are studied. It is shown that these groups are perfect. Moreover if the homeomorphism isotopy group of the base is bounded then the bundle homeomorphism group of the total space is uniformly perfect.

Open subgroups of free topological groups

Jeremy Brazas (2014)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

The theory of covering spaces is often used to prove the Nielsen-Schreier theorem, which states that every subgroup of a free group is free. We apply the more general theory of semicovering spaces to obtain analogous subgroup theorems for topological groups: Every open subgroup of a free Graev topological group is a free Graev topological group. An open subgroup of a free Markov topological group is a free Markov topological group if and only if it is disconnected.

Orbit projections as fibrations

Armin Rainer (2009)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The orbit projection π M M / G of a proper G -manifold M is a fibration if and only if all points in M are regular. Under additional assumptions we show that π is a quasifibration if and only if all points are regular. We get a full answer in the equivariant category: π is a G -quasifibration if and only if all points are regular.

Orbit projections of proper Lie groupoids as fibrations

Armin Rainer (2009)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let 𝒢 M be a source locally trivial proper Lie groupoid such that each orbit is of finite type. The orbit projection M M / 𝒢 is a fibration if and only if 𝒢 M is regular.

Orbit spaces, Quillen's Theorem A and Minami's formula for compact Lie groups

Assaf Libman (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let G be a compact Lie group. We present a criterion for the orbit spaces of two G-spaces to be homotopy equivalent and use it to obtain a quick proof of Webb’s conjecture for compact Lie groups. We establish two Minami type formulae which present the p-localised spectrum Σ B G as an alternating sum of p-localised spectra Σ B H for subgroups H of G. The subgroups H are calculated from the collections of the non-trivial elementary abelian p-subgroups of G and the non-trivial p-radical subgroups of G. We...

Parametrized Borsuk-Ulam problem for projective space bundles

Mahender Singh (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let π: E → B be a fiber bundle with fiber having the mod 2 cohomology algebra of a real or a complex projective space and let π’: E’ → B be a vector bundle such that ℤ₂ acts fiber preserving and freely on E and E’-0, where 0 stands for the zero section of the bundle π’: E’ → B. For a fiber preserving ℤ₂-equivariant map f: E → E’, we estimate the cohomological dimension of the zero set Z f = x E | f ( x ) = 0 . As an application, we also estimate the cohomological dimension of the ℤ₂-coincidence set A f = x E | f ( x ) = f ( T ( x ) ) of a fiber preserving...
