On the cardinality and weight spectra of compact spaces, II

Istvan Juhász, Saharon Shelah (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let B(κ,λ) be the subalgebra of P(κ) generated by [ κ ] λ . It is shown that if B is any homomorphic image of B(κ,λ) then either | B | < 2 λ or | B | = | B | λ ; moreover, if X is the Stone space of B then either | X | 2 2 λ or | X | = | B | = | B | λ . This implies the existence of 0-dimensional compact T 2 spaces whose cardinality and weight spectra omit lots of singular cardinals of “small” cofinality.

A problem of Galambos on Engel expansions

Jun Wu (2000)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

1. Introduction. Given x in (0,1], let x = [d₁(x),d₂(x),...] denote the Engel expansion of x, that is, (1) x = 1 / d ( x ) + 1 / ( d ( x ) d ( x ) ) + . . . + 1 / ( d ( x ) d ( x ) . . . d n ( x ) ) + . . . , where d j ( x ) , j 1 is a sequence of positive integers satisfying d₁(x) ≥ 2 and d j + 1 ( x ) d j ( x ) for j ≥ 1. (See [3].) In [3], János Galambos proved that for almost all x ∈ (0,1], (2) l i m n d n 1 / n ( x ) = e . He conjectured ([3], P132) that the Hausdorff dimension of the set where (2) fails is one. In this paper, we prove this conjecture: Theorem. d i m H x ( 0 , 1 ] : ( 2 ) f a i l s = 1 . We use L¹ to denote the one-dimensional Lebesgue measure on (0,1] and d i m H to denote...

On infinite composition of affine mappings

László Máté (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

 Let F i = 1 , . . . , N be affine mappings of n . It is well known that if there exists j ≤ 1 such that for every σ 1 , . . . , σ j 1 , . . . , N the composition (1) F σ 1 . . . F σ j is a contraction, then for any infinite sequence σ 1 , σ 2 , . . . 1 , . . . , N and any z n , the sequence (2) F σ 1 . . . F σ n ( z ) is convergent and the limit is independent of z. We prove the following converse result: If (2) is convergent for any z n and any σ = σ 1 , σ 2 , . . . belonging to some subshift Σ of N symbols (and the limit is independent of z), then there exists j ≥ 1 such that for every σ = σ 1 , σ 2 , . . . Σ the composition (1) is a contraction....

Intersection topologies with respect to separable GO-spaces and the countable ordinals

M. Jones (1995)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given two topologies, T 1 and T 2 , on the same set X, the intersection topologywith respect to T 1 and T 2 is the topology with basis U 1 U 2 : U 1 T 1 , U 2 T 2 . Equivalently, T is the join of T 1 and T 2 in the lattice of topologies on the set X. Following the work of Reed concerning intersection topologies with respect to the real line and the countable ordinals, Kunen made an extensive investigation of normality, perfectness and ω 1 -compactness in this class of topologies. We demonstrate that the majority of his results...

Inessentiality with respect to subspaces

Michael Levin (1995)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let X be a compactum and let A = ( A i , B i ) : i = 1 , 2 , . . . be a countable family of pairs of disjoint subsets of X. Then A is said to be essential on Y ⊂ X if for every closed F i separating A i and B i the intersection ( F i ) Y is not empty. So A is inessential on Y if there exist closed F i separating A i and B i such that F i does not intersect Y. Properties of inessentiality are studied and applied to prove:  Theorem. For every countable family of pairs of disjoint open subsets of a compactum X there exists an open set G ∩ X on...

On the preservation of separation axioms in products

Milan Z. Grulović, Miloš S. Kurilić (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We give sufficient and necessary conditions to be fulfilled by a filter Ψ and an ideal Λ in order that the Ψ -quotient space of the Λ -ideal product space preserves T k -properties ( k = 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , 3 1 2 ) (“in the sense of the Łos theorem”). Tychonoff products, box products and ultraproducts appear as special cases of the general construction.

On B 2 k -sequences

Martin Helm (1993)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Introduction. An old conjecture of P. Erdős repeated many times with a prize offer states that the counting function A(n) of a B r -sequence A satisfies l i m i n f n ( A ( n ) / ( n 1 / r ) ) = 0 . The conjecture was proved for r=2 by P. Erdős himself (see [5]) and in the cases r=4 and r=6 by J. C. M. Nash in [4] and by Xing-De Jia in [2] respectively. A very interesting proof of the conjecture in the case of all even r=2k by Xing-De Jia is to appear in the Journal of Number Theory [3]. Here we present a different, very short proof...

A note on evaluations of some exponential sums

Marko J. Moisio (2000)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

1. Introduction. The recent article [1] gives explicit evaluations for exponential sums of the form S ( a , p α + 1 ) : = x q χ ( a x p α + 1 ) where χ is a non-trivial additive character of the finite field q , q = p e odd, and a * q . In my dissertation [5], in particular in [4], I considered more generally the sums S(a,N) for all factors N of p α + 1 . The aim of the present note is to evaluate S(a,N) in a short way, following [4]. We note that our result is also valid for even q, and the technique used in our proof can also be used to evaluate...

A preconditioner for the FETI-DP method for mortar-type Crouzeix-Raviart element discretization

Chunmei Wang (2014)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper, we consider mortar-type Crouzeix-Raviart element discretizations for second order elliptic problems with discontinuous coefficients. A preconditioner for the FETI-DP method is proposed. We prove that the condition number of the preconditioned operator is bounded by ( 1 + log ( H / h ) ) 2 , where H and h are mesh sizes. Finally, numerical tests are presented to verify the theoretical results.

Baireness of C k ( X ) for ordered X

Michael Granado, Gary Gruenhage (2006)

We show that if X is a subspace of a linearly ordered space, then C k ( X ) is a Baire space if and only if C k ( X ) is Choquet iff X has the Moving Off Property.

Bing maps and finite-dimensional maps

Michael Levin (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let X and Y be compacta and let f:X → Y be a k-dimensional map. In [5] Pasynkov stated that if Y is finite-dimensional then there exists a map g : X 𝕀 k such that dim (f × g) = 0. The problem that we deal with in this note is whether or not the restriction on the dimension of Y in the Pasynkov theorem can be omitted. This problem is still open.  Without assuming that Y is finite-dimensional Sternfeld [6] proved that there exists a map g : X 𝕀 k such that dim (f × g) = 1. We improve this result of Sternfeld...
