AbstractWe show that the notions of homotopy epimorphism and homological epimorphism in the category of differential graded algebras are equivalent. As an application we obtain a characterization of acyclic maps of topological spaces in terms of induced maps of their chain algebras of based loop spaces. In the case of a universal acyclic map we obtain, for a wide class of spaces, an explicit algebraic description for these induced maps in terms of derived localization.

Ziegler studies in [2] the expressive power of (Lωω)t for T3 topological spaces. He defines for every natural number n the set of n-types by induction: . If A is a T3 space, the n-type of a ∈ A is defined inductively by: : in every neighborhood of a there is an a′ ≠ a with tn(a′, A) = α}. These types are (Lωω)t-definable. Then, it is shown that two T3 spaces are (Lωω)t-equivalent precisely if for every n-type α they have the same number of points with n-type α (cf. [2]).In order to study the expressability of (Lω1ω)t, for T3 spaces, we introduce in this paper the notion of accessible set. Looking at the behaviour of convergence by means of this notion, we refine Ziegler's notion of n-type and introduce a new set Sn of n-types, which are (Lω1ω)t-definable. Then, we prove a characterization of (Lω1ω)t-equivalence for a wide class of T3 spaces. A T3 space A belongs to this class if there is a κ ∈ ω such that, for every n ∈ ω, there are at most κ n-types in Sn which are satisfiable in A. Such a space is said to be of a-finite type. Some relations between these spaces and the spaces of finite type in the sense of [2] are shown in the last section.The contents of the present paper are treated in more detail in [3].

Abstract Functions of dimension modulo a (rather wide) class of spaces are considered and the conditions are found, under which the dimension of the product of spaces modulo these classes is equal to zero. Based on these results, the sufficient conditions are established, under which spaces of free topological semigroups (in the sense of Marxen) and spaces of free topological groups (in the sense of Markov and Graev) are zero-dimensional modulo classes of compact spaces.

We extend van Dalen and Wattel's (1973) characterization of orderable spaces and their subspaces by obtaining analogous results for two larger classes of topological spaces. This type of spaces are defined by considering preferences instead of linear orders in the former definitions, and possess topological properties similar to those of (totally) orderable spaces (cf. Alcantud, 1999). Our study provides particular consequences of relevance in mathematical economics; in particular, a condition equivalent to the existence of a continuous preference on a topological space is obtained.

This chapter focuses on circle actions. Specifically, it specializes the Weil algebra and the Weil model to a circle action. In this case, all the formulas simplify. The chapter derives a simpler complex, called the Cartan model, which is isomorphic to the Weil model as differential graded algebras. It considers the theorem that for a circle action, there is a graded-algebra isomorphism. Under the isomorphism F, the Weil differential δ‎ corresponds to a differential called the Cartan differential. An element of the Cartan model is called an equivariant differential form or equivariant form for a circle action on the manifold M.

The study of metrization has led to the development of a number of new topological spaces, called generalized metric spaces, within the past fifteen years. For a survey of results in metrization theory involving many of these spaces, the reader is referred to [13]. Quite a few of these generalized metric spaces have been studied extensively, somewhat independently of their role in metrization theorems. Specifically, we refer here to characterizations of these spaces by various workers as images of metric spaces. Results in this area have been obtained by Alexander [2], Arhangel'skii [3], Burke [5], Heath [10], Michael [15], Nagata [16], and the author [1], to mention a few. Later we will recall specifically some of these results.

Recently there has been a great deal of interest in extending refinements of locally finite and point finite collections on subsets of certain topological spaces. In particular the first named author showed that a subset S of a topological space X is P-embedded in X if and only if every locally finite cozero-set cover on S has a refinement that can be extended to a locally finite cozero-set cover of X. Since then many authors have studied similar types of embeddings (see [1], [2], [3], [4], [6], [8], [9], [10], [11], and [12]). Since the above characterization of P-embedding is equivalent to extending continuous pseudometrics from the subspace S up to the whole space X, it is natural to wonder when can a locally finite or a point finite open or cozero-set cover on S be extended to a locally finite or point-finite open or cozero-set cover on X.
