The Theory of Screws, a study in the Dynamics of a rigid body. (Auszug aus einem grösseren Werke)
It is shown that the maximum size of a set of vectors of a -dimensional vector space over , with the property that every subset of size is a basis, is at most , if , and at most , if , where and is prime. Moreover, for , the sets of maximum size are classified, generalising Beniamino Segre’s “arc is a conic” theorem. These results have various implications. One such implication is that a matrix, with and entries from , has columns which are linearly dependent. Another is...
The truncation operation facilitates the articulation and analysis of several aspects of the structure of archimedean vector lattices; we investigate two such aspects in this article. We refer to archimedean vector lattices equipped with a truncation as truncs. In the first part of the article we review the basic definitions, state the (pointed) Yosida representation theorem for truncs, and then prove a representation theorem which subsumes and extends the (pointfree) Madden representation theorem....
We generalize a major portion of the classical theory of C- and C*-embedded subspaces to pointfree topology, where the corresponding notions are frame C- and C*-quotients. The central results characterize these quotients and generalize Urysohn's Extension Theorem, among others. The proofs require calculations in CL, the archimedean f-ring of frame maps from the topology of the reals into the frame L. We give a number of applications of the central results.
