On Ditkin sets
In the study of spectral synthesis S-sets and C-sets (see Rudin [3]; Reiter [2] uses the terminology Wiener sets and Wiener-Ditkin sets respectively) have been discussed extensively. A new concept of Ditkin sets was introduced and studied by Stegeman in [4] so that, in Reiter’s terminology, Wiener-Ditkin sets are precisely sets which are both Wiener sets and Ditkin sets. The importance of such sets in spectral synthesis and their connection to the C-set-S-set problem (see Rudin [3]) are mentioned...
