On the classification of inverse limits of tent maps

Louis Block, Slagjana Jakimovik, Lois Kailhofer, James Keesling (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let f s and f t be tent maps on the unit interval. In this paper we give a new proof of the fact that if the critical points of f s and f t are periodic and the inverse limit spaces ( I , f s ) and ( I , f t ) are homeomorphic, then s = t. This theorem was first proved by Kailhofer. The new proof in this paper simplifies the proof of Kailhofer. Using the techniques of the paper we are also able to identify certain isotopies between homeomorphisms on the inverse limit space.

On the cliquish, quasicontinuous and measurable selections

Milan Matejdes (1991)

Mathematica Bohemica

The purpose of this paper is the investigation of the necessary and sufficient conditions under which a given multifunctions admits a cliquish and measurable selection. Our investigation also covers the search for quasicontinuous selections for multifunctions which are continuous with respect to the generalized notion of the semi-quasicontinuity.

On the closure of Baire classes under transfinite convergences

Tamás Mátrai (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let X be a Polish space and Y be a separable metric space. For a fixed ξ < ω₁, consider a family f α : X Y ( α < ω ) of Baire-ξ functions. Answering a question of Tomasz Natkaniec, we show that if for a function f: X → Y, the set α < ω : f α ( x ) f ( x ) is finite for every x ∈ X, then f itself is necessarily Baire-ξ. The proof is based on a characterization of Σ η sets which can be interesting in its own right.

On the Compactness and Countable Compactness of 2 in ZF

Kyriakos Keremedis, Evangelos Felouzis, Eleftherios Tachtsis (2007)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

In the framework of ZF (Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory without the Axiom of Choice) we provide topological and Boolean-algebraic characterizations of the statements " 2 is countably compact" and " 2 is compact"

On the completeness of localic groups

Bernhard Banaschewski, Jacob J. C Vermeulen (1999)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The main purpose of this paper is to show that any localic group is complete in its two-sided uniformity, settling a problem open since work began in this area a decade ago. In addition, a number of other results are established, providing in particular a new functor from topological to localic groups and an alternative characterization of L T -groups.

On the complexity of Hamel bases of infinite-dimensional Banach spaces

Lorenz Halbeisen (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We call a subset S of a topological vector space V linearly Borel if for every finite number n, the set of all linear combinations of S of length n is a Borel subset of V. It is shown that a Hamel basis of an infinite-dimensional Banach space can never be linearly Borel. This answers a question of Anatoliĭ Plichko.

On the complexity of some σ -ideals of σ -P-porous sets

Luděk Zajíček, Miroslav Zelený (2003)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Let 𝐏 be a porosity-like relation on a separable locally compact metric space E . We show that the σ -ideal of compact σ - 𝐏 -porous subsets of E (under some general conditions on 𝐏 and E ) forms a Π 1 1 -complete set in the hyperspace of all compact subsets of E , in particular it is coanalytic and non-Borel. Our general results are applicable to most interesting types of porosity. It is shown in the cases of the σ -ideals of σ -porous sets, σ - g -porous sets, σ -strongly porous sets, σ -symmetrically porous sets...

On the complexity of subspaces of S ω

Carlos Uzcátegui (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let (X,τ) be a countable topological space. We say that τ is an analytic (resp. Borel) topology if τ as a subset of the Cantor set 2 X (via characteristic functions) is an analytic (resp. Borel) set. For example, the topology of the Arkhangel’skiĭ-Franklin space S ω is F σ δ . In this paper we study the complexity, in the sense of the Borel hierarchy, of subspaces of S ω . We show that S ω has subspaces with topologies of arbitrarily high Borel rank and it also has subspaces with a non-Borel topology. Moreover,...
