On Daverman Compacta
by
Matija Cencelj
Coauthors: D. Repovs

We introduce a new class of compact metric spaces, called Daverman compacta and we investigate their applications in the theory of cohomological dimension over nonabelian groups. In particular, we construct an example of a 2-dimensional homogeneous Cannon-Stanko compactum which fails to be nonabelian.
