We prove a -set unknotting theorem for Nobeling spaces. This generalizes a result obtained by S. Ageev for a restricted class of -sets. The theorem is proved for a certain model of Nobeling spaces.

We offer a short and elementary proof that, for a Z-set A in a finite-dimensional ANR Y, dimA<dimY. This result is relevant to the study of group boundaries. The original proof by Bestvina and Mess relied on cohomological dimension theory.
We prove that Dranishnikov's -dimensional resolution is a UV-divider of Chigogidze's -dimensional resolution . This fact implies that preserves -sets. A further development of the concept of UV-dividers permits us to find sufficient conditions for $d_k^{-1}(…
Generalizes expansion and collapse theory to metric spaces.
In this paper, we develop a geometric procedure for producing a reverse to Quillen's plus construction, a construction called a 1-sided h-cobordism or semi-h-cobordism. We then use this reverse to the plus construction to produce uncountably many distinct ends of manifolds called pseudo-collars, which are stackings of …
We define a new compactification of outer space (the \emph{Pacman compactification}) which is an absolute retract, for which the boundary is a -set. The classical compactification made of very small -actions on -trees, however, fails to be locally -connected as soon as $N…
Extends geometric group theory techniques to arbitrary proper metric ARs.
A Z-structure on a group G, defined by M. Bestvina, is a pair (\hat{X}, Z) of spaces such that \hat{X} is a compact ER, Z is a Z-set in \hat{X}, G acts properly and cocompactly on X=\hat{X}\Z, and the collection of translates of any compact set in X forms a null sequence in \hat{X}. It is natural to ask whether a given…
The paper constructs coronas for combable spaces under specific conditions.
Three themes of general topology: quotient spaces; absolute retracts; and inverse limits - are reapproached here in the setting of metrizable uniform spaces, with an eye to applications in geometric and algebraic topology. The results include: 1) If f: A -> Y is a uniformly continuous map, where X and Y are metric spac…
