We show that such spaces are determined by various subgroups of their auto-homeomorphism groups. Theorems 1–3 below are typical examples of the results obtained in this work. \ods \noindent{\sc Theorem 1.} {\it For a metric space $X$ let $\rfs{UC}(X)$ denote the group of all auto-homeomorphisms $h$ of $X$ such that $h$ and $h\inverse$ are uniformly continuous. Let $X$ be an open subset of a Banach space with the following property: for every $\varepsilon > 0$ there is $\delta > 0$ such that for every $u,v \in X$: if $\norm{u - v} < \delta$, then there is an arc $L \subseteq X$ connecting $u$ and $v$ such that $\rfs{diam}(L) < \varepsilon$. Suppose that the same holds for $Y$. Let $\varphi$ be a group isomorphism between $\rfs{UC}(X)$ and $\rfs{UC}(Y)$. Then there is a homeomorphism $\tau$ between $X$ and $Y$ such that $\tau$ and $\tau\inverse$ are uniformly continuous and for every $g \in \rfs{UC}(X)$, $\varphi(g) = \tau \circ g \circ \tau\inverse$. } \ods See Corollaries 5.6 and 2.26. \ods \noindent{\sc Theorem 2.} {\it Let $H(X)$ denote the group of auto-homeomorphisms of a topological space $X$. Let $X$ be a bounded open subset of a Banach space $E$, and denote by $\cl (X)$ the closure of $X$ in~$E$. Suppose that $X$ has the following properties: $(1)$ There is $d$ such that for every $u,v \in X$ there is a rectifiable arc $L \subseteq X$ connecting $u$ and $v$ such that $\rfs{length}(L) < d$; $(2)$ for every point $w$ in the boundary of $X$ and $\varepsilon > 0$, there is $\delta > 0$ such that for every $u,v \in X$: if $\norm{u - w},\norm{v - w} < \delta$, then there is an arc $L \subseteq X$ connecting $u$ and $v$ such that $\rfs{diam}(L) < \varepsilon$. Suppose that the same holds for $Y$. Let $\varphi$ be a group isomorphism between $H(\cl (X))$ and $H(\cl (Y))$. Then there is a homeomorphism $\tau$ between $\cl (X)$ and $\cl (Y)$ such that for every $g \in H(\cl (X))$, $\varphi(g) = \tau \circ g \circ \tau\inverse$.
