Resolving rational cohomological dimension via a Cantor group action

Michael Levin

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 15 (2015) 2427–2437
Abstract

By a Cantor group we mean a topological group homeomorphic to the Cantor set. We show that a compact metric space of rational cohomological dimension n can be obtained as the orbit space of a Cantor group action on a metric compact space of covering dimension n. Moreover, the action can be assumed to be free if n = 1.

Keywords
