A remark on CD0(K)-spaces
Alpay, S.; Ercan, Z. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2006-05-01)
A representation of the CDo (K)-space is given in [1, 2] for a compact Hausdorff space K without isolated points. We generalize this to an arbitrary countably compact space K without any assumption on isolated points.
An answer to a question of Cao, Reilly and Xiong
Ercan, Z.; Onal, S. (Institute of Mathematics, Czech Academy of Sciences, 2006-01-01)
We present a simple proof of a Banach-Stone type Theorem. The method used in the proof also provides an answer to a conjecture of Cao, Reilly and Xiong.
A note on a theorem of Dwyer and Wilkerson
Öztürk, Semra (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2001-01-03)
We prove a version of Theorem 2.3 in [1] for the non-elementary abelian group Z(2) x Z(2n), n greater than or equal to 2. Roughly, we describe the equivariant cohomology of (union of) fixed point sets as the unstable part of the equivariant cohomology of the space localized with respect to suitable elements of the cohomology ring of Z(2) x Z(2n).
On Legendrian embbeddings into open book decompositions
Akbulut, Selman; Arikan, M. Firat (International Press of Boston, 2019-01-01)
We study Legendrian embeddings of a compact Legendrian submanifold L sitting in a closed contact manifold (M, xi) whose contact structure is supported by a (contact) open book OB on M. We prove that if OB has Weinstein pages, then there exist a contact structure xi' on M, isotopic to xi and supported by OB, and a contactomorphism f:(M, xi) -> (M, xi') such that the image f(L) of any such submanifold can be Legendrian isotoped so that it becomes disjoint from the closure of a page of OB.
On the monodromy of Milnor open books
ALTINOK BHUPAL, SELMA; Bhupal, Mohan Lal (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2018-01-01)
We present some techniques that can be used to factorize the monodromy of certain Milnor open books. We also describe a class of Milnor open books for which we can explicitly express the monodromy as a product of Dehn twists.
