Abstract:
For a space let . Let act on and on by exchanging factors and antipodes respectively. We present a new short proof of the following theorem by Weber: For an -polyhedron and , if there exists an equivariant map , then is embeddable in . We also prove this theorem for a peanian continuum and . We prove that the theorem is not true for the 3-adic solenoid and .
