The topological centralizers of Toeplitz flows satisfying a condition (Sh) and their Z2-extensions are described. Such Toeplitz flows are topologically coalescent. If {q0, q1, ...} is a set of all except at least one prime numbers and I0, I1, ... are positive integers then the direct sum ⊕i=0∞ Zqi|i ⊕ Z can be the topological centralizer of a Toeplitz flow.

Let ${\varphi }_1,\cdots ,{\varphi }_n$ be real homogeneous functions in $C^{\infty }({ℝ}^n-\left\{0\right\})$ of degree $k\ge 2$, let $\varphi \left(x\right)=({\varphi }_1\left(x\right),\cdots ,{\varphi }_n\left(x\right))$ and let $\mu$ be the Borel measure on ${ℝ}^{2n}$ given by $$\mu \left(E\right)={\int }_{{ℝ}^n}{\chi }_E(x,\varphi \left(x\right)){\left|x\right|}^{\gamma -n}\mathrm{d}x$$ where $\mathrm{d}x$ denotes the Lebesgue measure on ${ℝ}^n$ and $\gamma >0$. Let $T_{\mu }$ be the convolution operator $T_{\mu }f\left(x\right)=(\mu *f)\left(x\right)$ and let $$E_{\mu }=\{(1/p,1/q)\parallel T_{\mu }{\parallel }_{p,q}<\infty ,1\le p,q\le \infty \}.$$ Assume that, for $x\ne 0$, the following two conditions hold: $det\left({\mathrm{d}}^2\varphi \left(x\right)h\right)$ vanishes only at $h=0$ and $det\left(\mathrm{d}\varphi \right(x\left)\right)\ne 0$. In this paper we show that if $\gamma >n(k+1)/3$ then $E_{\mu }$ is the empty set and if $\gamma \le n(k+1)/3$ then $E_{\mu }$ is the closed segment with endpoints $D=\left(1-\frac{\gamma }{n(k+1)},1-\frac{2\gamma }{n(k+1)}\right)$ and $D^{\text{'}}=\left(\frac{2\gamma }{n(1+k)},\frac{\gamma }{n(1+k)}\right)$. Also, we give some examples.

Let G be a group of homeomorphisms of a nondiscrete, locally compact, σ-compact topological space X and suppose that a Haar measure on X exists: a regular Borel measure μ, positive on nonempty open sets, finite on compact sets and invariant under the homeomorphisms from G. Under some mild assumptions on G and X we prove that the measure completion of μ is the unique, up to a constant factor, nonzero, σ-finite, G-invariant measure defined on its domain iff μ is ergodic and the G-orbits of all points...

The classical Vitali convergence theorem gives necessary and sufficient conditions for norm convergence in the space of Lebesgue integrable functions. Although there are versions of the Vitali convergence theorem for the vector valued McShane and Pettis integrals given by Fremlin and Mendoza, these results do not involve norm convergence in the respective spaces. There is a version of the Vitali convergence theorem for scalar valued functions defined on compact intervals in ${ℝ}^n$ given by Kurzweil and...

We present a weaker version of the Fremlin generalized McShane integral (1995) for functions defined on a $\sigma$-finite outer regular quasi Radon measure space $(S,\Sigma ,𝒯,\mu )$ into a Banach space $X$ and study its relation with the Pettis integral. In accordance with this new method of integration, the resulting integral can be expressed as a limit of McShane sums with respect to the weak topology. It is shown that a function $f$ from $S$ into $X$ is weakly McShane integrable on each measurable subset of $S$ if and only if...

Let ⟨X,Y⟩ be a duality pair of M-spaces X,Y of measurable functions from Ω ⊂ ℝ ⁿ into ${ℝ}^d$. The paper deals with Y-weak cluster points ϕ̅ of the sequence $\varphi (·,z_j\left(·\right))$ in X, where $z_j:\Omega \to {ℝ}^m$ is measurable for j ∈ ℕ and $\varphi :\Omega \times {ℝ}^m\to {ℝ}^d$ is a Carathéodory function. We obtain general sufficient conditions, under which, for some negligible set $A_{\varphi }$, the integral $I(\varphi ,{\nu }_x):={\int }_{{ℝ}^m}\varphi (x,\lambda )d{\nu }_x\left(\lambda \right)$ exists for $x\in \Omega \setminus A_{\varphi }$ and $\varphi ̅\left(x\right)=I(\varphi ,{\nu }_x)$ on $\Omega \setminus A_{\varphi }$, where $\nu ={{\nu }_x}_{x\in \Omega }$ is a measurable-dependent family of Radon probability measures on ${ℝ}^m$.

We characterize Łukasiewicz tribes, i.e., collections of fuzzy sets that are closed under the standard fuzzy complementation and the Łukasiewicz t-norm with countably many arguments. As a tool, we introduce σ-McNaughton functions as the closure of McNaughton functions under countable MV-algebraic operations. We give a measure-theoretical characterization of σ-complete MV-algebras which are isomorphic to Łukasiewicz tribes.

We prove that the σ-ideal I(E) (of closed smooth sets with respect to a non-smooth Borel equivalence relation E) does not have the covering property. In fact, the same holds for any σ-ideal containing the closed transversals with respect to an equivalence relation generated by a countable group of homeomorphisms. As a consequence we show that I(E) does not have a Borel basis.
