Hardback. Etat : New. illustrated Edition. Decomposition theory studies decompositions, or partitions, of manifolds into simple pieces, usually cell-like sets. Since its inception in 1929, the subject has become an important tool in geometric topology. The main goal of the book is to help students interested in geometric topology to bridge the gap between entry-level graduate courses and research at the frontier as well as to demonstrate interrelations of decomposition theory with other parts of geometric topology. With numerous exercises and problems, many of them quite challenging, the book continues to be strongly recommended to everyone who is interested in this subject. The book also contains an extensive bibliography and a useful index of key words, so it can also serve as a reference to a specialist.…

Hardback. Etat : New. A topological embedding is a homeomorphism of one space onto a subspace of another. The book analyzes how and when objects like polyhedra or manifolds embed in a given higher-dimensional manifold. The main problem is to determine when two topological embeddings of the same object are equivalent in the sense of differing only by a homeomorphism of the ambient manifold. Knot theory is the special case of spheres smoothly embedded in spheres; in this book, much more general spaces and much more general embeddings are considered. A key aspect of the main problem is taming: when is a topological embedding of a polyhedron equivalent to a piecewise linear embedding? A central theme of the book is the fundamental role played by local homotopy properties of the complement in answering this taming question. The book begins with a fresh description of the various classic examples of wild embeddings (i.e., embeddings inequivalent to piecewise linear embeddings). Engulfing, the fundamental tool of the subject, is developed next. After that, the study of embeddings is organized by codimension (the difference between the ambient dimension and the dimension of the embedded space). In all codimensions greater than two, topological embeddings of compacta are approximated by nicer embeddings, nice embeddings of polyhedra are tamed, topological embeddings of polyhedra are approximated by piecewise linear embeddings, and piecewise linear embeddings are locally unknotted. Complete details of the codimension-three proofs, including the requisite piecewise linear tools, are provided. The treatment of codimension-two embeddings includes a self-contained, elementary exposition of the algebraic invariants needed to construct counterexamples to the approximation and existence of embeddings. The treatment of codimension-one embeddings includes the locally flat approximation theorem for manifolds as well as the characterization of local flatness in terms of local homotopy properties.…

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. 2 volumes, 4to (26 cm), frontispiece with the author's photograph, XIX, 886 pp.; frontispiece, XVIII, pp. 887-1654. Publisher's cloth in dust jackets (jackets frayed at extremities and slightly discolored, text uniformly clean and tight). This comprehensive two-volume set brings together the complete published mathematical research of R. H. Bing (1914-1986), one of the twentieth century's most influential topologists and a devoted student of R. L. Moore at the University of Texas. Spanning over 1,600 pages and comprising 113 papers, the collection is organized thematically across the major areas of Bing's research, including General Topology, Planar Sets and Continua, Topological Classifications, the Topology of 3-Manifolds, and Miscellaneous Topics, with subsections covering metrization, retracts, pseudo-arcs, decompositions, engulfing, tameness, and the Poincaré Conjecture, among others. Volume 1 opens with a biographical study, a chronology, a list of Bing's doctoral students, and a full classified bibliography, providing essential scholarly context for the papers that follow. A landmark reference for researchers and graduate students in geometric and set-theoretic topology, this set stands as both a testament to Bing's extraordinary mathematical legacy and an indispensable resource for anyone working in the field.…
