Embedded surfaces in the 3-torus

Allan L. Edmonds (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Those maps of a closed surface to the three-dimensional torus that are homotopic to embeddings are characterized. Particular attention is paid to the more involved case when the surface is nonorientable.

Embedding solenoids

Alex Clark, Robbert Fokkink (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A generalized solenoid is an inverse limit space with bonding maps that are (regular) covering maps of closed compact manifolds. We study the embedding properties of solenoids in linear space and in foliations.

Extending Maps in Hilbert Manifolds

Piotr Niemiec (2012)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Certain results on extending maps taking values in Hilbert manifolds by maps which are close to being embeddings are presented. Sufficient conditions on a map under which it is extendable by an embedding are given. In particular, it is shown that if X is a completely metrizable space of topological weight not greater than α ≥ ℵ₀, A is a closed set in X and f: X → M is a map into a manifold M modelled on a Hilbert space of dimension α such that f ( X A ) f ( A ) ¯ = , then for every open cover of M there is a map g:...

Isometric Embeddings of Pro-Euclidean Spaces

Barry Minemyer (2015)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

In [12] Petrunin proves that a compact metric space X admits an intrinsic isometry into En if and only if X is a pro-Euclidean space of rank at most n, meaning that X can be written as a “nice” inverse limit of polyhedra. He also shows that either case implies that X has covering dimension at most n. The purpose of this paper is to extend these results to include both embeddings and spaces which are proper instead of compact. The main result of this paper is that any pro-Euclidean space of rank...
