Concordant sequences and integral-valued entire functions

Jonathan Pila, Fernando Rodriguez Villegas (1999)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

A classic theorem of Pólya shows that the function 2 z is the “smallest” integral-valued entire transcendental function. A variant due to Gel’fond applies to entire functions taking integral values on a geometric progression of integers, and Bézivin has given a generalization of both results. We give a sharp formulation of Bézivin’s result together with a further generalization.

Does C* -embedding imply C*-embedding in the realm of products with a non-discrete metric factor?

Valentin Gutev, Haruto Ohta (2000)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

The above question was raised by Teodor Przymusiński in May, 1983, in an unpublished manuscript of his. Later on, it was recognized by Takao Hoshina as a question that is of fundamental importance in the theory of rectangular normality. The present paper provides a complete affirmative solution. The technique developed for the purpose allows one to answer also another question of Przymusiński's.

The universal functorial Lefschetz invariant

Wolfgang Lück (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We introduce the universal functorial Lefschetz invariant for endomorphisms of finite CW-complexes in terms of Grothendieck groups of endomorphisms of finitely generated free modules. It encompasses invariants like Lefschetz number, its generalization to the Lefschetz invariant, Nielsen number and L 2 -torsion of mapping tori. We examine its behaviour under fibrations.
