Group-theoretic conditions under which closed aspherical manifolds are covered by Euclidean space

Hanspeter FischerDavid G. Wright — 2003

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Hass, Rubinstein, and Scott showed that every closed aspherical (irreducible) 3-manifold whose fundamental group contains the fundamental group of a closed aspherical surface, is covered by Euclidean space. This theorem does not generalize to higher dimensions. However, we provide geometric tools with which variations of this theorem can be proved in all dimensions.

On the concreteness of quantum logics

Aplikace matematiky

It is shown that for any quantum logic L one can find a concrete logic K and a surjective homomorphism f from K onto L such that f maps the centre of K onto the centre of L . Moreover, one can ensure that each finite set of compatible elements in L is the image of a compatible subset of K . This result is “best possible” - let a logic L be the homomorphic image of a concrete logic under a homomorphism such that, if F is a finite subset of the pre-image of a compatible subset of L , then F is compatible....
