On partitions of lines and space

Paul Erdös, Steve Jackson, R. Mauldin (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider a set, L, of lines in $ℝ^{n}$ and a partition of L into some number of sets: $L = L_{1} \cup . . . \cup L_{p}$ . We seek a corresponding partition $ℝ^{n} = S_{1} \cup . . . \cup S_{p}$ such that each line l in $L_{i}$ meets the set $S_{i}$ in a set whose cardinality has some fixed bound, $ω_{τ}$ . We determine equivalences between the bounds on the size of the continuum, $2^{ω} \leq ω_{θ}$ , and some relationships between p, $ω_{τ}$ and $ω_{θ}$ .

On sums of two cubes: an Ω₊-estimate for the error term

M. Kühleitner, W. G. Nowak, J. Schoissengeier, T. D. Wooley (1998)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

The arithmetic function $r_{k} (n)$ counts the number of ways to write a natural number n as a sum of two kth powers (k ≥ 2 fixed). The investigation of the asymptotic behaviour of the Dirichlet summatory function of $r_{k} (n)$ leads in a natural way to a certain error term $P_{_{k}} (t)$ which is known to be $O (t^{1 / 4})$ in mean-square. In this article it is proved that $P_{₃} (t) = Ω ₊ (t^{1 / 4} {(l o g l o g t)}^{1 / 4})$ as t → ∞. Furthermore, it is shown that a similar result would be true for every fixed k > 3 provided that a certain set of algebraic numbers contains a...

A function space Cp(X) not linearly homeomorphic to Cp(X) × ℝ

Witold Marciszewski (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We construct two examples of infinite spaces X such that there is no continuous linear surjection from the space of continuous functions $c_{p} (X)$ onto $c_{p} (X)$ × ℝ $. I n p a r t i c u l a r,$ cp(X) $i s n o t l i n e a r l y h o m e o m o r p h i c t o$ cp(X) $\times ℝ$ . One of these examples is compact. This answers some questions of Arkhangel’skiĭ.

A generalization of Zeeman’s family

Michał Sierakowski (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

E. C. Zeeman [2] described the behaviour of the iterates of the difference equation $x_{n + 1} = R (x_{n}, x_{n - 1}, . . ., x_{n - k}) / Q (x_{n}, x_{n - 1}, . . ., x_{n - k})$ , n ≥ k, R,Q polynomials in the case $k = 1, Q = x_{n - 1}$ and $R = x_{n} + α$ , $x_{1}, x_{2}$ positive, α nonnegative. We generalize his results as well as those of Beukers and Cushman on the existence of an invariant measure in the case when R,Q are affine and k = 1. We prove that the totally invariant set remains residual when the coefficients vary.

Strongly almost disjoint familes, revisited

A. Hajnal, Istvan Juhász, Saharon Shelah (2000)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

The relations M(κ,λ,μ) → B [resp. B(σ)] meaning that if $A \subset {[κ]}^{λ}$ with |A|=κ is μ-almost disjoint then A has property B [resp. has a σ-transversal] had been introduced and studied under GCH in [EH]. Our two main results here say the following: Assume GCH and let ϱ be any regular cardinal with a supercompact [resp. 2-huge] cardinal above ϱ. Then there is a ϱ-closed forcing P such that, in $V^{P}$ , we have both GCH and $M (ϱ^{(+ ϱ + 1)}, ϱ^{+}, ϱ) ↛ B$ [resp. $M (ϱ^{(+ ϱ + 1)}, λ, ϱ) ↛ B (ϱ^{+})$ for all $λ \leq ϱ^{(+ ϱ + 1)}]$ . These show that, consistently, the results of [EH] are sharp....

A forcing construction of thin-tall Boolean algebras

Juan Martínez (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

It was proved by Juhász and Weiss that for every ordinal α with $0 < α < ω_{2}$ there is a superatomic Boolean algebra of height α and width ω. We prove that if κ is an infinite cardinal such that $κ^{< κ} = κ$ and α is an ordinal such that $0 < α < κ^{+ +}$ , then there is a cardinal-preserving partial order that forces the existence of a superatomic Boolean algebra of height α and width κ. Furthermore, iterating this forcing through all $α < κ^{+ +}$ , we obtain a notion of forcing that preserves cardinals and such that in the corresponding...

The minimum uniform compactification of a metric space

R. Grant Woods (1995)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

It is shown that associated with each metric space (X,d) there is a compactification $u_{d} X$ of X that can be characterized as the smallest compactification of X to which each bounded uniformly continuous real-valued continuous function with domain X can be extended. Other characterizations of $u_{d} X$ are presented, and a detailed study of the structure of $u_{d} X$ is undertaken. This culminates in a topological characterization of the outgrowth $u_{d} ℝ^{n} ∖ ℝ^{n}$ , where $(ℝ^{n}, d)$ is Euclidean n-space with its usual metric. ...

More set-theory around the weak Freese–Nation property

Sakaé Fuchino, Lajos Soukup (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We introduce a very weak version of the square principle which may hold even under failure of the generalized continuum hypothesis. Under this weak square principle, we give a new characterization (Theorem 10) of partial orderings with κ-Freese-Nation property (see below for the definition). The characterization is not a ZFC theorem: assuming Chang’s Conjecture for $ℵ_{ω}$ , we can find a counter-example to the characterization (Theorem 12). We then show that, in the model obtained by adding...

Decomposing Baire class 1 functions into continuous functions

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

It is shown to be consistent that every function of first Baire class can be decomposed into $ℵ_{1}$ continuous functions yet the least cardinal of a dominating family in $^{ω} ω$ is $ℵ_{2}$ . The model used in the one obtained by adding $ω_{2}$ Miller reals to a model of the Continuum Hypothesis.

Hausdorff dimension and measures on Julia sets of some meromorphic maps

Krzysztof Barański (1995)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study the Julia sets for some periodic meromorphic maps, namely the maps of the form $f (z) = h (e x p \frac{2 π i}{T} z)$ where h is a rational function or, equivalently, the maps $˜ f (z) = e x p (\frac{2 π i}{h} (z))$ . When the closure of the forward orbits of all critical and asymptotic values is disjoint from the Julia set, then it is hyperbolic and it is possible to construct the Gibbs states on J(˜f) for -α log |˜˜f|. For ˜α = HD(J(˜f)) this state is equivalent to the ˜α-Hausdorff measure or to the ˜α-packing measure provided ˜α is greater or smaller...

Difference functions of periodic measurable functions

Tamás Keleti (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate some problems of the following type: For which sets H is it true that if f is in a given class ℱ of periodic functions and the difference functions $Δ_{h} f (x) = f (x + h) - f (x)$ are in a given smaller class G for every h ∈ H then f itself must be in G? Denoting the class of counter-example sets by ℌ(ℱ,G), that is, $ℌ (ℱ, G) = H \subset ℝ / ℤ : (\exists f \in ℱ G) (\forall h \in H) Δ_{h} f \in G$ , we try to characterize ℌ(ℱ,G) for some interesting classes of functions ℱ ⊃ G. We study classes of measurable functions on the circle group $𝕋 = ℝ / ℤ$ that are invariant for changes on null-sets...

Operators on C(ω^α) which do not preserve C(ω^α)

Dale Alspach (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

It is shown that if α,ζ are ordinals such that 1 ≤ ζ < α < ζω, then there is an operator from $C (ω^{ω^{α}})$ onto itself such that if Y is a subspace of $C (ω^{ω^{α}})$ which is isomorphic to $C (ω^{ω^{α}})$ , then the operator is not an isomorphism on Y. This contrasts with a result of J. Bourgain that implies that there are uncountably many ordinals α for which for any operator from $C (ω^{ω^{α}})$ onto itself there is a subspace of $C (ω^{ω^{α}})$ which is isomorphic to $C (ω^{ω^{α}})$ on which the operator is an isomorphism.

Filters and sequences

Sławomir Solecki (2000)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider two situations which relate properties of filters with properties of the limit operators with respect to these filters. In the first one, we show that the space of sequences having limits with respect to a $Π_{3}^{0}$ filter is itself $Π_{3}^{0}$ and therefore, by a result of Dobrowolski and Marciszewski, such spaces are topologically indistinguishable. This answers a question of Dobrowolski and Marciszewski. In the second one, we characterize universally measurable filters which fulfill Fatou’s...

Sumsets of Sidon sets

Imre Z. Ruzsa (1996)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

1. Introduction. A Sidon set is a set A of integers with the property that all the sums a+b, a,b∈ A, a≤b are distinct. A Sidon set A⊂ [1,N] can have as many as (1+o(1))√N elements, hence N/2 sums. The distribution of these sums is far from arbitrary. Erdős, Sárközy and T. Sós [1,2] established several properties of these sumsets. Among other things, in [2] they prove that A + A cannot contain an interval longer than C√N, and give an example that $N^{1 / 3}$ is possible. In [1] they show that...
