I think the statement of the question is pretty straightforward. Given a finite $n$-dimensional CW complex, are there necessary and sufficient conditions for determining that it is also a compact $n$-...

Let $X$ be a compact metrizable topological space of covering dimension $n\leq 3$. Is it possible to give a necessary and sufficient condition for $X$ to be a CW complex in terms of the homotopy types ...

A submanifold $X^n\subset Y^m$ is locally flat if each point $x\in X$ has a neighborhood $U\subset Y$ so that $(U,U\cap X)\simeq (\Bbb R^m, \Bbb R^n)$ with the standard embedding $\Bbb R^n\...

I have a space $A$ which is homeomorphic to the open $n$-ball $B_n$. I'm trying to build a CW-complex with it, so I want a continuous function from the closed ball $\overline{B}_n$ to the closure $\...

I have been trying to prove the following simple-looking result which I require for some work in low-dimensional topology. I expect it is likely true and in a textbook somewhere so any reference or ...
