Automatic Continuity in Homeomorphism Groups of Compact 2-manifolds

چکیده
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.

Automatic continuity for homeomorphism groups and applications
Let M be a compact manifold, possibly with boundary. We show that the group of homeomorphisms of M has the automatic continuity property : any homomorphism from Homeo(M) to any separable group is necessarily continuous. This answers a question of C. Rosendal. If N ⊂ M is a submanifold, the group of homeomorphisms of M that preserve N also has this property. Various applications of automatic con...
متن کاملExpansive Homeomorphisms on Compact Manifolds
In this paper theorems are proved which provide for lifting and projecting expansive homeomorphisms through pseudocovering mappings so that the lift or projection is also an expansive homeomorphism. Using these techniques it is shown that the compact orientable surface of genus 2 admits an expansive homeomorphism.
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...

approved: Christine M. Escher Finding new examples of compact simply connected spaces admitting a Riemannian metric of positive sectional curvature is a fundamental problem in differential geometry. Likewise, studying topological properties of families of manifolds is very interesting to topologists. The Eschenburg spaces combine both of those interests: they are positively curved Riemannian ma...
متن کاملN-compactness and Automatic Continuity in Ultrametric Spaces of Bounded Continuous Functions
In this paper (weakly) separating maps between spaces of bounded continuous functions over a nonarchimedean field K are studied. It is proven that the behaviour of these maps when K is not locally compact is very different from the case of realor complex-valued functions: in general, for Ncompact spaces X and Y , the existence of a (weakly) separating additive map T : C∗(X)→ C∗(Y ) implies that...
