Existence of a special homeomorphism on $mathbb{T}^2$.
$begingroup$
Let $A, B$ be closed topological subspaces of $mathbb{T}^2$. Suppose that $A$ and $B$ are homeomorphic as topological spaces.
My Question: Is it possible to construct a homeomorphism $h: mathbb{T}^2 to
mathbb{T}^2$, such that $h(A) = B?$
If necessary, we can assume $A$ and $B$ as $mathcal{C}^0$- manifold with boundary (topological manifold with boundary).
I've been stuck in this problem for a long time; everything I tried did not come close to achieving the result. Can anyone help me?

It is impossible in general, when $A, B$ are topological circles. When each of them is a disjoint union of compact arcs, such a homeomorphism does exist, but it is not completely trivial. One needs Schoenflies theorem for topological arcs.

In general it's not possible. Consider A = circle that you can colapse in a point and B = circle that "cuts" the torus(One generator of the fundamental group). So $A^c$ retracts to a 8 shapped figure and $B^c$ is a cilinder.
