Characteristic homomorphism for ( F 1 , F 2 ) -foliated bundles over subfoliated manifolds

José Manuel Carballés (1984)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

In this paper a construction of characteristic classes for a subfoliation ( F 1 , F 2 ) is given by using Kamber-Tondeur’s techniques. For this purpose, the notion of ( F 1 , F 2 ) -foliated principal bundle, and the definition of its associated characteristic homomorphism, are introduced. The relation with the characteristic homomorphism of F i -foliated bundles, i = 1 , 2 , the results of Kamber-Tondeur on the cohomology of g - D G -algebras. Finally, Goldman’s results on the restriction of foliated bundles to the leaves of a foliation...

Characteristic zero loop space homology for certain two-cones

Calin Popescu (1999)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Given a principal ideal domain R of characteristic zero, containing 1/2, and a two-cone X of appropriate connectedness and dimension, we present a sufficient algebraic condition, in terms of Adams-Hilton models, for the Hopf algebra F H ( Ω X ; R ) to be isomorphic with the universal enveloping algebra of some R -free graded Lie algebra; as usual, F stands for free part, H for homology, and Ω for the Moore loop space functor.

Characterization of knot complements in the n-sphere

Vo-Thanh Liem, Gerard Venema (1995)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Knot complements in the n-sphere are characterized. A connected open subset W of S n is homeomorphic with the complement of a locally flat (n-2)-sphere in S n , n ≥ 4, if and only if the first homology group of W is infinite cyclic, W has one end, and the homotopy groups of the end of W are isomorphic to those of S 1 in dimensions less than n/2. This result generalizes earlier theorems of Daverman, Liem, and Liem and Venema.

Characterizing metric spaces whose hyperspaces are homeomorphic to ℓ₂

T. Banakh, R. Voytsitskyy (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

It is shown that the hyperspace C l d H ( X ) (resp. B d d H ( X ) ) of non-empty closed (resp. closed and bounded) subsets of a metric space (X,d) is homeomorphic to ℓ₂ if and only if the completion X̅ of X is connected and locally connected, X is topologically complete and nowhere locally compact, and each subset (resp. each bounded subset) of X is totally bounded.
