Dimension of maps, universal spaces, and homotopy
• Mathematics
• 2008
This paper is a survey of some recent results in dimension theory. The main topics under consideration are: dimension of maps in the classical and extension dimension theories, universal spaces (in
Extensions of maps to Moore spaces
• Mathematics
• 2015
We show that a Moore space M(ℤm, 1) is an absolute extensor for finite-dimensional metrizable spaces of cohomological dimension at most one with respect to the group ℤm. Applications of this result
Asymptotic Dimension
• Mathematics
• 2007
The asymptotic dimension theory was founded by Gromov in the early 90s. In this paper we give a survey of its recent history where we emphasize two of its features: an analogy with the dimension
Extensions of maps to M(Z_m,1)
• Mathematics
• 2013
We show that a Moore space M(Z_m,1) is an absolute extensor for finite dimensional metrizable spaces of cohomological dimension dim_{Z_m} \leq 1.
A dimensional property of Cartesian product
We show that the Cartesian product of three hereditarily infinite dimensional compact metric spaces is never hereditarily infinite dimensional. It is quite surprising that the proof of this fact (and
