On partitions of lines and space

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

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider a set, L, of lines in n and a partition of L into some number of sets: L = L 1 . . . L p . We seek a corresponding partition n = S 1 . . . 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 ω θ , and some relationships between p, ω τ and ω θ .

How to recognize a true Σ^0_3 set

Etienne Matheron (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let X be a Polish space, and let ( A p ) p ω be a sequence of G δ hereditary subsets of K(X) (the space of compact subsets of X). We give a general criterion which allows one to decide whether p ω A p is a true 3 0 subset of K(X). We apply this criterion to show that several natural families of thin sets from harmonic analysis are true 3 0 .

Misiurewicz maps unfold generically (even if they are critically non-finite)

Sebastian van Strien (2000)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that in normalized families of polynomial or rational maps, Misiurewicz maps (critically finite or infinite) unfold generically. For example, if f λ 0 is critically finite with non-degenerate critical point c 1 ( λ 0 ) , . . . , c n ( λ 0 ) such that f λ 0 k i ( c i ( λ 0 ) ) = p i ( λ 0 ) are hyperbolic periodic points for i = 1,...,n, then  IV-1.

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, ( , G ) = H / : ( f G ) ( h H ) Δ h f 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 = / that are invariant for changes on null-sets...

Types on stable Banach spaces

José Iovino (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

 We prove a geometric characterization of Banach space stability. We show that a Banach space X is stable if and only if the following condition holds. Whenever X ^ is an ultrapower of X and B is a ball in X ^ , the intersection B ∩ X can be uniformly approximated by finite unions and intersections of balls in X; furthermore, the radius of these balls can be taken arbitrarily close to the radius of B, and the norm of their centers arbitrarily close to the norm of the center of B.  The preceding...

Cofinal Σ 1 1 and Π 1 1 subsets of ω ω

Gabriel Debs, Jean Saint Raymond (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study properties of 1 1 and π 1 1 subsets of ω ω that are cofinal relative to the orders ≤ (≤*) of full (eventual) domination. We apply these results to prove that the topological statement “Any compact covering mapping from a Borel space onto a Polish space is inductively perfect” is equivalent to the statement " α ω ω , ω ω L ( α ) is bounded for ≤*".

Strong Fubini properties of ideals

Ireneusz Recław, Piotr Zakrzewski (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

 Let I and J be σ-ideals on Polish spaces X and Y, respectively. We say that the pair ⟨I,J⟩ has the Strong Fubini Property (SFP) if for every set D ⊆ X× Y with measurable sections, if all its sections D x = y : x , y D are in J, then the sections D y = x : x , y D are in I for every y outside a set from J (“measurable" means being a member of the σ-algebra of Borel sets modulo sets from the respective σ-ideal). We study the question of which pairs of σ-ideals have the Strong Fubini Property. Since CH excludes this...

Convexity ranks in higher dimensions

Menachem Kojman (2000)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

A subset of a vector space is called countably convex if it is a countable union of convex sets. Classification of countably convex subsets of topological vector spaces is addressed in this paper. An ordinal-valued rank function ϱ is introduced to measure the complexity of local nonconvexity points in subsets of topological vector spaces. Then ϱ is used to give a necessary and sufficient condition for countable convexity of closed sets. Theorem. Suppose that S is a closed subset of a...

Locally constant functions

Joan Hart, Kenneth Kunen (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let X be a compact Hausdorff space and M a metric space. E 0 ( X , M ) is the set of f ∈ C(X,M) such that there is a dense set of points x ∈ X with f constant on some neighborhood of x. We describe some general classes of X for which E 0 ( X , M ) is all of C(X,M). These include βℕ, any nowhere separable LOTS, and any X such that forcing with the open subsets of X does not add reals. In the case where M is a Banach space, we discuss the properties of E 0 ( X , M ) as a normed linear space. We also build three first countable...

The dimension of X^n where X is a separable metric space

John Kulesza (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a separable metric space X, we consider possibilities for the sequence S ( X ) = d n : n where d n = d i m X n . In Section 1, a general method for producing examples is given which can be used to realize many of the possible sequences. For example, there is X n such that S ( X n ) = n , n + 1 , n + 2 , . . . , Y n , for n >1, such that S ( Y n ) = n , n + 1 , n + 2 , n + 2 , n + 2 , . . . , and Z such that S(Z) = 4, 4, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9,.... In Section 2, a subset X of 2 is shown to exist which satisfies 1 = d i m X = d i m X 2 and d i m X 3 = 2 .

Countable partitions of the sets of points and lines

James Schmerl (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

The following theorem is proved, answering a question raised by Davies in 1963. If L 0 L 1 L 2 . . . is a partition of the set of lines of n , then there is a partition n = S 0 S 1 S 2 . . . such that | S i | 2 whenever L i . There are generalizations to some other, higher-dimensional subspaces, improving recent results of Erdős, Jackson Mauldin.

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.

Normal numbers and subsets of N with given densities

Haseo Ki, Tom Linton (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

For X ⊆ [0,1], let D X denote the collection of subsets of ℕ whose densities lie in X. Given the exact location of X in the Borel or difference hierarchy, we exhibit the exact location of D X . For α ≥ 3, X is properly D ξ ( Π α 0 ) iff D X is properly D ξ ( Π 1 + α 0 ) . We also show that for every nonempty set X ⊆[0,1], D X is Π 3 0 -hard. For each nonempty Π 2 0 set X ⊆ [0,1], in particular for X = x, D X is Π 3 0 -complete. For each n ≥ 2, the collection of real numbers that are normal or simply normal to base n is Π 3 0 -complete. Moreover,...

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 [ 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 ϱ ( + ϱ + 1 ) ] . These show that, consistently, the results of [EH] are sharp....

Strongly meager sets and subsets of the plane

Janusz Pawlikowski (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let X 2 w . Consider the class of all Borel F X × 2 w with null vertical sections F x , x ∈ X. We show that if for all such F and all null Z ⊆ X, x Z F x is null, then for all such F, x X F x 2 w . The theorem generalizes the fact that every Sierpiński set is strongly meager and was announced in [P].

Topological entropy of nonautonomous piecewise monotone dynamical systems on the interval

Sergiĭ Kolyada, Michał Misiurewicz, L’ubomír Snoha (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

The topological entropy of a nonautonomous dynamical system given by a sequence of compact metric spaces ( X i ) i = 1 and a sequence of continuous maps ( f i ) i = 1 , f i : X i X i + 1 , is defined. If all the spaces are compact real intervals and all the maps are piecewise monotone then, under some additional assumptions, a formula for the entropy of the system is obtained in terms of the number of pieces of monotonicity of f n . . . f 2 f 1 . As an application we construct a large class of smooth triangular maps of the square of type 2 and...

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...

On character and chain conditions in images of products

Murray Bell (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

A scadic space is a Hausdorff continuous image of a product of compact scattered spaces. We complete a theorem begun by G. Chertanov that will establish that for each scadic space X, χ(X) = w(X). A ξ-adic space is a Hausdorff continuous image of a product of compact ordinal spaces. We introduce an either-or chain condition called Property R λ ' which we show is satisfied by all ξ-adic spaces. Whereas Property R λ ' is productive, we show that a weaker (but more natural) Property R λ is not productive....
