A directed space is a topological space $X$ together with a subspace $\vec {P}(X)\subset X^I$ of directed paths on $X$ . A symmetry of a directed space should therefore respect both the topology of the underlying space and the topology of the associated spaces $\vec {P}(X)_-^+$ of directed paths between a source ( $-$ ) and a target ( $+$ )—up to homotopy. If it is, moreover, homotopic to the identity map—in a directed sense—such a symmetry will be called an inessential d-map, and the paper explores the algebra and topology of inessential d-maps. Comparing two d-spaces $X$ and $Y$ ‘up to symmetry’ yields the notion of a directed homotopy equivalence between them. Under appropriate conditions, all directed homotopy equivalences are shown to satisfy a 2-out-of-3 property. Our notion of directed homotopy equivalence does not agree completely with the one defined in Goubault (2017, arxiv:1709:05702v2) and Goubault, Farber and Sagnier (2020, J. Appl. Comput. Topol. 4, 11–27); the deviation is motivated by examples. Nevertheless, directed topological complexity, introduced in Goubault, Farber and Sagnier (2020) is shown to be invariant under our notion of directed homotopy equivalence. Finally, we show that directed homotopy equivalences result in isomorphisms on the pair component categories of directed spaces introduced in Goubault, Farber and Sagnier (2020).

Let $Y$ be a compact Kähler normal space and let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}\in H_{\mathit{BC}}^{1,1}(Y)$ be a Kähler class. We study metric properties of the space ${\mathcal{H}}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}$ of Kähler metrics in $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$ using Mabuchi geodesics. We extend several results of Calabi, Chen, and Darvas, previously established when the underlying space is smooth. As an application, we analytically characterize the existence of Kähler–Einstein metrics on $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties, generalizing a result of Tian, and illustrate these concepts in the case of toric varieties.

In the following text, we want to study the behavior of one point compactification operator in the chain Ξ := {Metrizable, Normal, T2, KC, SC, US, T1, TD, TUD, T0, Top} of subcategories of category of topological spaces, Top (where we denote the subcategory of Top, containing all topological spaces with property P , simply by P). Actually we want to know, for P∈Ξ and X∈P, the one point compactification of topological space X belongs to which elements of Ξ. Finally we find out that the chain {Metrizable, T2, KC, SC, US, T1, TD, TUD, T0, Top} is a forwarding chain with respect to one point compactification operator.

All topological spaces here are assumed to be T2. The collection F(Y)of all homeomorphisms whose domains and ranges are closed subsets of a topological space Y is an inverse semigroup under the operation of composition. We are interested in the general problem of getting some information about the subsemigroups of F(Y) whenever Y is a compact metric space. Here, we specifically look at the problem of determining those spaces X with the property that F(X) is isomorphic to a subsemigroup of F(Y). The main result states that if X is any first countable space with an uncountable number of points, then the semigroup F(X) can be embedded into the semigroup F(Y) if and only if either X is compact and Y contains a copy of X, or X is noncompact and locally compact and Y contains a copy of the one-point compactification of X.

We introduce partially defined dynamical systems defined on a topological space. To each such system we associate a functor s from a category G to Topop and show that it defines what we call a skew category algebra A ⋊σ G. We study the connection between topological freeness of s and, on the one hand, ideal properties of A ⋊σ G and, on the other hand, maximal commutativity of A in A ⋊σ G. In particular, we show that if G is a groupoid and for each e ∈ ob (G) the group of all morphisms e → e is countable and the topological space s(e) is Tychonoff and Baire. Then the following assertions are equivalent: (i) s is topologically free; (ii) A has the ideal intersection property, i.e. if I is a nonzero ideal of A ⋊σ G, then I ∩ A ≠ {0}; (iii) the ring A is a maximal abelian complex subalgebra of A ⋊σ G. Thereby, we generalize a result by Svensson, Silvestrov and de Jeu from the additive group of integers to a large class of groupoids.

For continued fraction dynamical system [Formula: see text], we give a classification of the underlying space [Formula: see text] according to the orbit of a given point [Formula: see text]. The sizes of all classes are determined from the viewpoints of measure, Hausdorff dimension and topology. For instance, the Hausdorff dimension of the distal set of [Formula: see text] is one and the Hausdorff dimension of the asymptotic set is either zero or [Formula: see text] according to [Formula: see text] is rational or not.

For algebraic terms which are not defined, one may consult [2]. The symbol S(X) denotes the semigroup, under composition, of all continuous selfmaps of the topological space X. When X is discrete, S(X) is simply the full transformation semigroup on the set X. It has long been known that Green's relations and ℐ coincide for [2, p. 52] and F. A. Cezus has shown in his doctoral dissertation [1, p. 34] that and ℐ also coincide for S(X) when X is the one-point compactification of the countably infinite discrete space. Our main purpose here is to point out the fact that among the 0-dimensional metric spaces, Cezus discovered the only nondiscrete space X with the property that and ℐ coincide on the semigroup S(X). Because of a result in a previous paper [6] by S. Subbiah and the author, this property (for 0-dimensional metric spaces) is in turn equivalent to the semigroup being regular. We gather all this together in the following

The concepts of fuzzy sets and topology are widely applied to model various algebraic structures and computations. The dynamics of fuzzy measures in topological spaces having distributed monoid embeddings is an interesting topic in the presence of topological endomorphism. This paper presents the analysis of topological endomorphism and the properties of topological fuzzy measures in distributed monoid spaces. The topological space is considered to be Hausdorff and second countable in nature. The analysis of consistency of fuzzy measure in endomorphic topological spaces is formulated. The algebraic structures of endomorphic topological spaces having distributed cyclic monoids are constructed. The cyclic monoids contain specific generators, and a related cyclic topological endomorphism within the subspace is formulated. The analytical properties of fuzzy topological measures in the presence of cyclic topological endomorphism are presented. A comparative analysis of this proposed work with other related work in the domain is included.

The continuous and injective embeddings of closed curves in Hausdorff topological spaces maintain isometry in subspaces generating components. An embedding of a circle group within a topological space creates isometric subspace with rotational symmetry. This paper introduces the generalized algebraic construction of functional groups and its topological embeddings into normal spaces maintaining homeomorphism of functional groups. The proposed algebraic construction of functional groups maintains homeomorphism to rotationally symmetric circle groups. The embeddings of functional groups are constructed in a sequence in the normal topological spaces. First, the topological decomposition and associated embeddings of a generalized group algebraic structure in the lower dimensional space is presented. It is shown that the one-point compactification property of topological space containing the decomposed group embeddings can be identified. Second, the sequential topological embeddings of functional groups are formulated. The proposed sequential embeddings follow Schoenflies property within the normal topological space. The preservation of homeomorphism between disjoint functional group embeddings under Banach-type contraction is analyzed taking into consideration that the underlying topological space is Hausdorff and the embeddings are in a monotone class. It is shown that components in a monotone class of isometry are not separable, whereas the multiple disjoint monotone class of embeddings are separable. A comparative analysis of the proposed concepts and formulations with respect to the existing structures is included in the paper.

Allen’s (2011) provocative argument on the difference between topographic and topologic ontologies in human geography offers human geographers an important opportunity to re-engage with other similarly spirited arguments about the limitations of the topographic. For example, debate over Marston et al.’s (2005) argument for a ‘site ontology’ has tended to sidestep the question of topological space and has instead dwelled on whether or not their representation of human geography research on scale is accurate. However, if Allen’s research gives human geographers another opportunity to take up the question of sociospatial practice as contingent, site-specific, and self-structuring, it also poses at least two problems. On the one hand, Allen characterizes the topographic and topologic according to a too neat calendar of sociospatial relations. On the other hand, Allen overlooks a long-standing appreciation for the topologic in human geography by drawing a strong distinction between past and newer intellectual approaches to power and space.

AbstractLet A be a unital strict Banach algebra, and let K + be the one-point compactification of a discrete topological space K. Denote by the weak tensor product of the algebra A and C(K +), the algebra of continuous functions on K +. We prove that if K has sufficiently large cardinality (depending on A), then the strict global dimension is equal to .
