Local cross-sections for free actions of finite groups
Let $G$ be a finite group, let $X$ be a locally compact Hausdorff space, and let $G$ act freely on $X$. It is well-known that the canonical quotient map $\pi\colon X\to X/G$ onto the orbit space $X/G$ ...

homeomorphisms induced by composant rotations in the solenoid
Let $S$ be the dyadic solenoid.
Let $x\in S$, and let $X$ be the union of all arcs (homeomorphic copies of $[0,1]$) in $S$ containing $x$.
$X$ is called a composant of $S$.
It is well-known ...

Equicontinuity and orbits of compact open sets
Let $X$ be a compact zero-dimensional space, let $S \subseteq \mathrm{Homeo}(X)$ and let $U$ be a compact open subset of $X$. Suppose that $s^{-1} \in S$ for all $s \in S$, and that $S$ restricts to ...
