Universal Spaces and Mappings

The book is devoted to universality problems.
A new approach to these problems is given using some specific spaces. Since the construction of these specific spaces is set-theoretical, the given theory can be applied to different topics of Topology such as:
universal mappings, dimension theory, action of groups, inverse spectra, isometrical embeddings, and so on.

· Universal spaces
· Universal mappings
· Dimension theory
· Actions of groups
· Isometric Universal Spaces
