Abstract

V originále

Given topological spaces X and Y, a subspace A of X, and a continuous map f from A to Y, decide whether f can be extended to a continuous map F from X to Y. All spaces are given as finite simplicial complexes, and the map f is simplicial. The paper shows that for dimX=2k, the extension problem with (k minus 1) connected Y becomes undecidable.
