Feb 17, 2013 at 9:52 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński Andrey, you're welcome to edit my question (that's what I meant in my earlier comment, just under yours).)
Feb 16, 2013 at 22:43 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński I see TeX+HTML problems in my comment above. I think that Hilbert Space can be disconnected by a closed subset which does not contain any arc.
Feb 16, 2013 at 22:41 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński I feel that it should not be difficult to disconnect   $\el^2$   by a closed subset which does not contain any topological arc (any subspace homeomorphic to $I$). I may come back to this later.
Feb 16, 2013 at 16:45 comment added Gerald Edgar Do we know that Hilbert space $l^2$ is not such a space? Explain, please.
Feb 16, 2013 at 9:36 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński @A.B.--please (be my guest :-)
Feb 16, 2013 at 9:25 comment added Andrej Bauer May I edit the question a bit? You can always cancel the changes if you do not like that.

extra info
Feb 16, 2013 at 9:00 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński @A.B.--my bad. Any space $X$, which satisfies the above 2 conditions (from the question) must be $\infty$-dimensional--think of the Ind definition of the topological dimension. (The bad luck wants that my first attempt at posting my question ended in a failure; I've encountered a software system difficulty. My first edition was quite extensive. It's hard for me to concentrate on the second edition, when I am a kind of sick of writing about the same again).
Feb 16, 2013 at 7:49 comment added Andrej Bauer Oops, I was reading the second condition wrong, thinking you want a copy of $X$ inside $X \setminus A$. $I^\omega$ obviously is not a solution.
Feb 16, 2013 at 7:47 comment added Andrej Bauer I find this question very confusingly written. In the title you say "$\infty$-dimensional" but not in the text. If infinite dimension is a consequence of your conditions, please indicate that. The text is fragmented (what is the first paragraph for?). You could just say "fixed-point property" in the single place where you use "fpp", so you don't have to explain what the acronym means. Also, it might help if you explain why $I^\omega$ isn't a solution, even if so for a trivial reason.

a terminological explanation added
Feb 16, 2013 at 7:26 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński fpp = the Fixed Point Property (I'll add this explanation to the formulation of the problem).
Feb 16, 2013 at 6:30 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez What's fpp? ${}$
