Continuous decompositions into cells of different dimensions

John J. Walsh and David Clifford Wilson

Vol. 110 (1984), No. 1, 223–232
Abstract

In 1970 S. Jones showed that the only continuous decomposition of En into points and k-cells is the trivial decomposition into points. This is extended by showing that, for a pair of positive integers r, s with r + s n, the only continuous decomposition of En into points, r-cells, and s-cells is the trivial decomposition into points.
