Let $M$ be a connected, compact $C^{\infty}$-differentiable manifold, and denote the vector space of smooth real functions on $M$ by $C^{\infty}(M)$. Let the subspace $V\le C^{\infty}(M)$ be invariant under $C^{\infty}$-diffeomorphisms of $M$, that is, let $f\circ h\in V$ for every $f\in V$ and for every $C^{\infty}$-diffeomorphism $h\colon M\rightarrow M$. Prove that if $V$ is different from the subspaces $\{ 0\}$ and $C^{\infty}(M)$ then $V$ only contains the constant functions.

The Lindelöf number $L(X)$ of a topological space $X$ is the least infinite cardinal $\lambda$ with the property that every open covering of $X$ has a subcovering of cardinality at most $\lambda$. Prove that if evert non-countably infinite subset of a first countable space $X$ has a point of condensation, then $L(X)=\sup L(A)$, where $A$ runs over the separable closed subspaces of $X$. (A point of condensation of a subset $H\subseteq X$ is a point $x\in X$ such that any neighbourhood of $x$ intersects $H$ in a non-countably infinite set.)

Let $ D \subset \mathbb {R} ^ {2} $ be a finite Lebesgue measure of a connected open set and $ u: D \rightarrow \mathbb {R} $ a harmonic function. Show that it is either a constant $ u $ or for almost every $ p \in D $ $$ f ^ {\prime} (t) = (\operatorname {grad} u) (f (t)), \quad f (0) = p $$has no initial value problem(differentiable everywhere) solution to $ f:[0,\infty) \rightarrow D $.

Is is true that if the perfect set $F\subseteq [0,1]$ is of zero Lebesgue measure then those functions in $C^1[0,1]$ which are one-to-one on $F$ form a dense subset of $C^1[0,1]$? (We use the metric $$d(f,g)=\sup_{x\in[0,1]} |f(x)-g(x)| + \sup_{x\in[0,1]} |f'(x)-g'(x)|$$ to define the topology in the space $C^1[0,1]$ of continuously differentiable real functions on $[0,1]$.)

Let $S$ be the Sierpiński triangle. What can we say about the Hausdorff dimension of the elevation sets $f^{-1}(y)$ for typical continuous real functions defined on $S$? (A property is satisfied for typical continuous real functions on $S$ if the set of functions not having this property is of the first Baire category in the metric space of continuous $S\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ functions with the supremum norm.)
