Does the continuous mapping space between topological manifolds always admit a Banach manifold structure?

Let $M$ and $N$ be smooth, i.e. $C^\infty$, manifolds. Suppose that $M$ is compact. Then for every $k \geq 0$ it is well known that $$C^k(M,N)$$ admits the structure of a smooth Banach manifold. I am ...

The Space of Cellular Maps

Let $X$ and $Y$ be CW complexes. Inside of the space of maps $\mathrm{map}(X,Y)$, we have the subspace $\mathrm{CW}(X,Y)$, consisting of just the cellular maps from $X$ to $Y$. The Cellular ...

Confused about the definition of the Kahn-Priddy map

The Kahn-Priddy map is defined in various papers as follows: Define $i:\mathbb {RP}^{n-1}\rightarrow O(n)$ by taking $\ell\in \mathbb {RP}^{n-1}$ to the reflection across $\ell^\perp.$ Define $j:O(n)\...

Stability for mapping class groups, spaces of sections, and polynomial coefficient systems

Let $X$ be a simply connected space. Cohen and Madsen https://arxiv.org/abs/math/0601750 proved that the functor sending a surface with boundary M to $H_i(Map(M,X))$ has polynomial degree $\leq i$. ...

Quantifierisation of maps

I will rewrite my question using Matt F. suggestion. Consider the logical structure $L = (\mathbb{R}, +, *, 1, 0, =)$ and a function $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$. Consider the map $Q:2^\mathbb{R}→2^\...

Simplicial models for mapping spaces of filtered maps

Let $S$ and $K$ be simplicial sets with $K$ Kan. Given simplicial sets $S$ and $K$, we let $SIMP(S,K)$ be the internal hom in the category of simplicial sets. Hence $SIMP(S,K)$ is Kan. Suppose that ${...

cohomology ring of mapping spaces

In the lecture notes The homology of $\mathcal{C}_{n+1}$–spaces, n ≥ 0. F. Cohen, 1978, page 228-231, the cohomology ring $$ H^*(\text{Map}_*(S^n, S^n\wedge X);\mathbb{Z}_p) $$ is obtained for any ...

Mapping between pseudosphere and breather segments

The pseudospheres $(K=-1)$ shown contain two cuspidal edge boundaries and appear to admit isometric mapping between 1) the surface of revolution through an expansion/contraction deformation in ...

Topologies in $\mathcal{C}^\infty(M,N)$

Naively, one could topologise the set of smooth (ie $\mathcal{C}^\infty$) maps between two smooth manifolds $M \to N$ with the subspace topology $\mathcal{C}^\infty(M,N) \subseteq \mathcal{C}^0(M,N)$, ...

Can we construct a surjective mapping from $\mathbb{R}^{?}$ to this space?

(Note : I'm not sure about the tags, please re-tag this if you think you have the right tag). I am optimising a certain function over a certain space (that i will describe), and to use non-constraint ...
