We examine the splitting number (B) and the reaping number (B) of quotient Boolean algebras B = (ω)/ℐ where ℐ is an ideal or an analytic P-ideal. For instance we prove that under Martin’s Axiom ((ω)/ℐ) = for all ideals ℐ and for all analytic P-ideals ℐ with the BW property (and one cannot drop the BW assumption). On the other hand under Martin’s Axiom ((ω)/ℐ) = for all ideals and all analytic P-ideals ℐ (in this case we do not need the BW property). We also provide applications of these characteristics...
We show that, generally, families of measurable functions do not have the difference property under some assumption. We also show that there are natural classes of functions which do not have the difference property in ZFC. This extends the result of Erdős concerning the family of Lebesgue measurable functions.
We consider ideal equal convergence of a sequence of functions. This is a generalization of equal convergence introduced by Császár and Laczkovich [Császár Á., Laczkovich M., Discrete and equal convergence, Studia Sci. Math. Hungar., 1975, 10(3–4), 463–472]. Our definition of ideal equal convergence encompasses two different kinds of ideal equal convergence introduced in [Das P., Dutta S., Pal S.K., On and *-equal convergence and an Egoroff-type theorem, Mat. Vesnik, 2014, 66(2), 165–177]_and [Filipów...
We introduce new properties of Hamel bases. We show that it is consistent with ZFC that such Hamel bases exist. Under the assumption that there exists a Hamel basis with one of these properties we construct a discontinuous and additive function that is Marczewski measurable. Moreover, we show that such a function can additionally have the intermediate value property (and even be an extendable function). Finally, we examine sums and limits of such functions.
We consider the Katětov order between ideals of subsets of natural numbers ("") and its stronger variant-containing an isomorphic ideal ("⊑ "). In particular, we are interested in ideals for which
for every ideal . We find examples of ideals with this property and show how this property can be used to reformulate some problems known from the literature in terms of the Katětov order instead of the order "⊑ " (and vice versa).
We consider various forms of Ramsey's theorem, the monotone subsequence theorem and the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem which are connected with ideals of subsets of natural numbers. We characterize ideals with properties considered. We show that, in a sense, Ramsey's theorem, the monotone subsequence theorem and the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem characterize the same class of ideals. We use our results to show some versions of density Ramsey's theorem (these are similar to generalizations shown in [P....
We show that the ideal of nowhere dense subsets of rationals cannot be extended to an analytic P-ideal, ideal nor maximal P-ideal. We also consider a problem of extendability to a non-meager P-ideals (in particular, to maximal P-ideals).
