There are two ways that a space \\(M\\) can satisfy this property: either (1) \\(M\\) has no trivial finite-sheeted covers or (2) \\(M\\) has a \\(k\\)-fold connected cover \\(p: X\\to M\\) for some \\(k\\geq 2\\), and the total space of every connected finite-sheeted cover \\(p: X\\to M\\) is such that \\(X\\) is homeomorphic to \\(M\\). In this part I of the paper the author considers those spaces that satisfy the first condition. Usually, the considered space \\(M\\) is a metric continuum, a compact connected metric space. Then in analogy to profinitely trivial groups, a connected metric space \\(M\\) is called cofinitely self-similar if whenever \\(p:X\\to M\\) is a finite-to-one connected covering space, it follows that \\(X\\) is homeomorphic to \\(M\\); \\(M\\) is cofinitely trivial if and only if it has no trivial finite-sheeted covers. As a trivial example, any simply connected space is cofinitely trivial. Also, other interesting examples are mentioned: the topologist's sine curve, any continuum that is either tree-like or a nonseparating planar continuum, cf. \\textit{A. Y. W. Lau} [Bull. Acad. Pol. Sci., S\u00e9r. Sci. Math. Astron. Phys. 26, No. 4, 315-317 (1978; Zbl 0394.54017)], the spaces constructed by \\textit{H. B. Griffiths} [Q. J. Math., Oxf. II. Ser. 5, 175-190 (1954; Zbl 0056.16301)], or the join of two copies of the cone on the Hawaiian earring, cf. \\textit{E. H. Spanier} [Algebraic topology (1966; Zbl 0145.43303), p. 84]. Then the author presents what is known about cofinitely trivial spaces: ``A calculus of noncovering'', a Lau's theorem [loc. cit.] and a theorem of \\textit{G. Jungck} and the author [Topol. Proc. 24, 173-187 (1999; Zbl 0970.54016)] about a covering projection \\(p: X\\to M\\) with \\(M\\) the inverse limit of an inverse sequence \\((M_n, f_n)\\) in some special conditions. As a corollary it follows that a countable product of cofinitely trivial metric compacta is also cofinitely trivial. Another mentioned ``test'' to determine that a metric continuum is cofinite is a theorem of \\textit{A. Tominaga} [Fundam. Math. 119, No. 1, 1-6 (1983; Zbl 0537.54024)] about a local homeomorphism \\(f: X\\to M\\) with \\(X\\) an inverse limit. These results are applied to obtain new examples of cofinitely trivial spaces. One such example, suggested by a paper of \\textit{S. Marde\u0161i\u0107} and \\textit{V. Matijevi\u0107} [Topology Appl. 113, No. 1-3, 167-209 (2001; Zbl 0989.57002)] about overlay structures, is the following: Suppose that \\(X_\\infty= \\underleftarrow{\\lim} {\\mathcal H}\\) is a solenoid from \\({\\mathcal H}= (S^1,f_n)\\), where \\(f_n: S^1\\to S^1\\) is a prime order covering projection of order \\(p_n\\) and such that for each prime \\(p\\) there are infinitely many \\(n\\in\\mathbb{N}\\) for which \\(p_n= p\\). Then \\(X_\\infty\\) is cofinitely trivial.   The last section presents what is known in the context of spaces with more structure such as low-dimensional manifolds and cell complexes. These results refer to some finitely generated 3-manifold groups and have as conclusion the following conjecture of the author: (a) There do not exist any nonsimply connected cofinitely trivial compact 3-manifolds. (b) The only compact cofinitely trivial 3-manifolds are the closed 3-ball, \\(S^2\\times I\\), and \\(S^3\\).   The paper also contains statements of other interesting related questions and problems which the author was concerned with.","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1854130$0A9AA9D9-2F87-4476-8264-A4680C79E661","rank":"normal"}],"P1447":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1447","hash":"8d15dff5987fa966dec5b70312142d908c224362","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":587483,"id":"Q587483"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1854130$5EC07D86-31C0-43D4-B704-A034DA2CE66E","rank":"normal"}],"P226":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"43de616fe2752b1c6454a64d0550fc86550cf0c5","datavalue":{"value":"54E99","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1854130$8162A96A-5BC7-4AE5-BD9B-9A3CDF1CAD37","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"e5cc3d2dda9f6cab4414397afae9e1a176c247cc","datavalue":{"value":"57M10","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1854130$89745935-9CA2-4E4B-BDA1-BCCF630A894E","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"e5f9f9fdc01eced40a1042148c42cf5fd19eced2","datavalue":{"value":"54C10","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1854130$9B06B7E6-9EB0-4821-87A5-26750380A805","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"be4cd99f0aaa2688661b2002577944d759906919","datavalue":{"value":"54H25","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1854130$DB2CED2B-4FA6-461E-9C6C-C632F5BAD013","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"2f4d97f788112bb319e1ce84c40c80e26fe1c09f","datavalue":{"value":"20E34","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1854130$23F036CC-07D8-4AE6-8105-46C54175A3E2","rank":"normal"}],"P1451":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1451","hash":"b9ba27a59ff5469902e75ca02b1187e4cc5e4955","datavalue":{"value":"1852871","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1854130$D5153536-40A7-4C83-B9FD-66E316F40C16","rank":"normal"}],"P1460":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1460","hash":"57f7fea50d2ce1b39b695c4a1313582eed405e38","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":5976449,"id":"Q5976449"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1854130$446D0C7F-E226-4894-951E-E7BD6569A823","rank":"normal"}],"P1643":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1643","hash":"8a937fd59c5ab807c2a5ddcad81cc0ec8fbbc48c","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":1868869,"id":"Q1868869"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","qualifiers":{"P1659":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1659","hash":"6c73d1e835ff05c97b74e668f96f381cd65aa133","datavalue":{"value":{"amount":"+0.7478376","unit":"1"},"type":"quantity"},"datatype":"quantity"}],"P1660":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1660","hash":"ba354e87a58191d58d132c60481c945a3234ce85","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":6534273,"id":"Q6534273"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"}]},"qualifiers-order":["P1659","P1660"],"id":"Q1854130$45984649-E4EF-4C91-997E-CB0CF33F0B2A","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1643","hash":"f01b93408246d97848b12365a630a166be47d798","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":1336603,"id":"Q1336603"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","qualifiers":{"P1659":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1659","hash":"57b2bb217a375a8b0af436ede9fdd184b3851383","datavalue":{"value":{"amount":"+0.70109165","unit":"1"},"type":"quantity"},"datatype":"quantity"}],"P1660":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1660","hash":"ba354e87a58191d58d132c60481c945a3234ce85","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":6534273,"id":"Q6534273"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"}]},"qualifiers-order":["P1659","P1660"],"id":"Q1854130$038F47EB-5DB3-48AC-8772-5B3C6BD7BA9A","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1643","hash":"a187c5ac670b0fc7643ece8266fa291ac669a0f3","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":4643359,"id":"Q4643359"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","qualifiers":{"P1659":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1659","hash":"0c2b78c89c7c982436ba698315649e701d2f0fef","datavalue":{"value":{"amount":"+0.69860244","unit":"1"},"type":"quantity"},"datatype":"quantity"}],"P1660":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1660","hash":"ba354e87a58191d58d132c60481c945a3234ce85","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":6534273,"id":"Q6534273"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"}]},"qualifiers-order":["P1659","P1660"],"id":"Q1854130$1FD9FA90-71E5-402E-9EB2-E30898134097","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1643","hash":"6907d455bc51e1c6500a1ce70cc64c24c7720919","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":1
