Review text

The question ``For what kind of compacta we can say that cell-like maps of that compacta cannot raise the dimension? is very actual in geometric topology. The author has discovered some class of such compacta, namely strongly hereditary aspherical compacta. A compactum \(X\) is called to be strongly hereditary aspherical if in some ambient ANR- space \(Y\supset X\) it admits an arbitrary small open covering by aspherical sets \(\{U_ i\}\) such that every union \(U_{i_ 1}\cup U_{i_ 2}\cup\dots\cup U_{i_ k}\) is also aspherical. The author noticed that every 2-dimensional compactum with the rational dimension one is of that sort. Also he constructed 3-dimensional and 4-dimensional examples. The reviewer would like to add that using the Gromov-Davis-Januszkiewicz technique of hyperbolization of polyhedra it is possible to construct strongly hereditary aspherical compacta of arbitrary dimension.
