Homeomorphism Groups and Metrisation of Manifolds
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove that a manifold M is metrisable if and only if its group of homeomorphisms H (M) endowed with the compact-open topology is a qspace. We also discuss pseudo-character and tightness. All spaces under discussion are Tychonoff.

Decision Problems for 3-manifolds and Their Fundamental Groups
We survey the status of some decision problems for 3-manifolds and their fundamental groups. This includes the classical decision problems for finitely presented groups (Word Problem, Conjugacy Problem, Isomorphism Problem), and also the Homeomorphism Problem for 3-manifolds and the Membership Problem for 3-manifold groups.
متن کاملTopological 4-manifolds with Geometrically 2-dimensional Fundamental Groups
Closed oriented 4-manifolds with the same geometrically 2-dimensional fundamental group (satisfying certain properties) are classified up to s-cobordism by their w2-type, equivariant intersection form and the Kirby-Siebenmann invariant. As an application, we obtain a complete homeomorphism classification of closed oriented 4-manifolds with solvable Baumslag-Solitar fundamental groups, including...
متن کاملAn Algorithm to Recognise Small Seifert Fiber Spaces
The homeomorphism problem is, given two compact n-manifolds, is there an algorithm to decide if the manifolds are homeomorphic or not. The homeomorphism problem has been solved for many important classes of 3-manifolds especially those with embedded 2-sided incompressible surfaces (cf [12], [15],[16]), which are called Haken manifolds. It is also well-known that the homeomorphism problem is eas...
متن کاملAutomatic Continuity in Homeomorphism Groups of Compact 2-manifolds
We show that any homomorphism from the homeomorphism group of a compact 2-manifold, with the compact-open topology, or equivalently, with the topology of uniform convergence, into a separable topological group is automatically continuous.
متن کاملThe Homotopy Type of Homeomorphisms of 3-manifolds by Eugenia César De Sa and Colin Rourke
THE HOMOTOPY TYPE OF HOMEOMORPHISMS OF 3-MANIFOLDS BY EUGENIA CÉSAR DE SA AND COLIN ROURKE The purpose of this paper is to announce some results on homeomorphism groups of 3-manifolds. These results together with the Smale conjecture (a proof of which has recently been announced by A. Hatcher) essentially reduce the computation of the homotopy type of the homeomorphism group of a 3-manifold to ...
