Hamiltonian systems with linear potential and elastic constraints

Maciej Wojtkowski (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider a class of Hamiltonian systems with linear potential, elastic constraints and arbitrary number of degrees of freedom. We establish sufficient conditions for complete hyperbolicity of the system.

Embedding partially ordered sets into ω ω

Ilijas Farah (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate some natural questions about the class of posets which can be embedded into ⟨ω,≤*⟩. Our main tool is a simple ccc forcing notion H E which generically embeds a given poset E into ⟨ω,≤*⟩ and does this in a “minimal” way (see Theorems 9.1, 10.1, 6.1 and 9.2).

Bohr compactifications of discrete structures

Joan Hart, Kenneth Kunen (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove the following theorem: Given a⊆ω and 1 α < ω 1 C K , if for some η < 1 and all u ∈ WO of length η, a is Σ α 0 ( u ) , then a is Σ α 0 .We use this result to give a new, forcing-free, proof of Leo Harrington’s theorem: Σ 1 1 -Turing-determinacy implies the existence of 0 .

A Nielsen theory for intersection numbers

Christopher McCord (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Nielsen theory, originally developed as a homotopy-theoretic approach to fixed point theory, has been translated and extended to various other problems, such as the study of periodic points, coincidence points and roots. In this paper, the techniques of Nielsen theory are applied to the study of intersections of maps. A Nielsen-type number, the Nielsen intersection number NI(f,g), is introduced, and shown to have many of the properties analogous to those of the Nielsen fixed point number....
