Popis: A collection F of proper maps into a locally compact Hausdorff space (X,τ) is said to fix the topology τ if the only locally compact Hausdorff topology for X for which every map in the collection is continuous and proper is τ. It will be shown that the collection of C∞ injective paths fix the manifold topology of a compact manifold and the collection of analytic injective paths does not fix the manifold topology of any manifold. A related but different notion is that of determining a topology by means of a weak topology generated by a collection of subspaces. Specially, if C is a collection of subspaces of a topological space (X,τ) then C determines the topology on X if and only if the weak topology generated by C is the same as the topology τ. It will be shown that if (X,τ) is a first countable topology and if C is a collection of closed subspaces for which given any convergent sequence in (X,τ) there is a set in the collection C which contains a subsequence of the given sequence, then the collection determines the topology.
