Let X be a separable locally compact metrizable space and G a separable completely metrizable ANR topological group without isolated points. By C(X, G), we denote the topological group of all continuous maps f : X → G endowed with the Whitney (graph) topology and by Cc(X, G) the subgroup consisting of all maps with compact support. It is known that if X is compact and non-discrete then the spac...

This paper develops several aspects of shift-invariant spaces on locally compact abelian groups. For a second countable locally compact abelian group G we prove a useful Hilbert space isomorphism, introduce range functions and give a characterization of shift-invariant subspaces of L 2 (G) in terms of range functions. Utilizing these functions, we generalize characterizations of frames and Ries...

We construct series of examples of exotic smooth structures on compact locally symmetric spaces of noncompact type. In particular, we obtain higher rank examples, which do not support Riemannian metric of nonpositive curvature. The examples are obtained by taking the connected sum with an exotic sphere. To detect the change of the smooth structure we use a tangential map from the locally symmet...

Improving a result of M. Rabus we force a normal, locally compact, 0-dimensional, Frechet-Uryson, initially ω1-compact and non-compact space X of size ω2 having the following property: for every open (or closed) set A in X we have |A| ≤ ω1 or |X \A| ≤ ω1.

We show that a topological space is hereditarily irresolvable if and only if it is Hausdorff-reducible. We construct a compact irreducible T1-space and a connected Hausdorff space, each of which is strongly irresolvable. Furthermore, we show that the three notions of scattered, Hausdorff-reducible, and hereditarily irresolvable coincide for a large class of spaces, including metric, locally com...

Let X be a G-space such that the orbit space X/G is metrizable. Suppose a family of slices is given at each point of X. We study a construction which associates, under some conditions on the family of slices, with any metric on X/G an invariant metric on X. We show also that a family of slices with the required properties exists for any action of a countable group on a locally compact and local...

Let G be a locally compact Vilenkin group. In this paper the characterizations of the Herz-type Besov space on G are obtained. And some properties of this space are discussed.

We calculate the density of the hyperspace of a metric space, endowed with the Hausdorff or the locally finite topology. To this end, we introduce suitable generalizations of the notions of totally bounded and compact metric space.

In this note we show the spectral mapping theorem for the evolution semigroup on L p ((; ; X), 1 p < 1, associated with a strongly continuous cocycle on a Banach space over a continuous ow on a locally compact metric space.
