Induced almost continuous functions on hyperspaces

Alejandro Illanes (2006)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a metric continuum X, let C(X) (resp., $2^{X}$ ) be the hyperspace of subcontinua (resp., nonempty closed subsets) of X. Let f: X → Y be an almost continuous function. Let C(f): C(X) → C(Y) and $2^{f} : 2^{X} \to 2^{Y}$ be the induced functions given by $C (f) (A) = c l_{Y} (f (A))$ and $2^{f} (A) = c l_{Y} (f (A))$ . In this paper, we prove that: • If $2^{f}$ is almost continuous, then f is continuous. • If C(f) is almost continuous and X is locally connected, then f is continuous. • If X is not locally connected, then there exists an almost continuous function f: X → [0,1]...

MAD families and $P$ -points

Salvador García-Ferreira, Paul J. Szeptycki (2007)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

The Katětov ordering of two maximal almost disjoint (MAD) families $𝒜$ and $ℬ$ is defined as follows: We say that $𝒜 \leq_{K} ℬ$ if there is a function $f : ω \to ω$ such that $f^{- 1} (A) \in ℐ (ℬ)$ for every $A \in ℐ (𝒜)$ . In [Garcia-Ferreira S., Hrušák M., Ordering MAD families a la Katětov, J. Symbolic Logic 68 (2003), 1337–1353] a MAD family is called $K$ -uniform if for every $X \in ℐ {(𝒜)}^{+}$ , we have that ${𝒜 |}_{X} \leq_{K} 𝒜$ . We prove that CH implies that for every $K$ -uniform MAD family $𝒜$ there is a $P$ -point $p$ of $ω^{*}$ such that the set of all Rudin-Keisler predecessors of $p$ is dense...

Almost Prüfer v-multiplication domains and the ring $D + X D_{S} [X]$

Qing Li (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

This paper is a continuation of the investigation of almost Prüfer v-multiplication domains (APVMDs) begun by Li [Algebra Colloq., to appear]. We show that an integral domain D is an APVMD if and only if D is a locally APVMD and D is well behaved. We also prove that D is an APVMD if and only if the integral closure D̅ of D is a PVMD, D ⊆ D̅ is a root extension and D is t-linked under D̅. We introduce the notion of an almost t-splitting set. $D^{(S)}$ denotes the ring $D + X D_{S} [X]$ , where S is a multiplicatively...

Rational approximation to real points on conics

Damien Roy (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

A point $(ξ_{1}, ξ_{2})$ with coordinates in a subfield of $ℝ$ of transcendence degree one over $ℚ$ , with $1, ξ_{1}, ξ_{2}$ linearly independent over $ℚ$ , may have a uniform exponent of approximation by elements of $ℚ^{2}$ that is strictly larger than the lower bound $1 / 2$ given by Dirichlet’s box principle. This appeared as a surprise, in connection to work of Davenport and Schmidt, for points of the parabola ${(ξ, ξ^{2}); ξ \in ℝ}$ . The goal of this paper is to show that this phenomenon extends to all real conics defined over $ℚ$ , and that the largest...

Extension properties of Stone-Čech coronas and proper absolute extensors

A. Chigogidze (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We characterize, in terms of X, the extensional dimension of the Stone-Čech corona βX∖X of a locally compact and Lindelöf space X. The non-Lindelöf case is also settled in terms of extending proper maps with values in $I^{τ} ∖ L$ , where L is a finite complex. Further, for a finite complex L, an uncountable cardinal τ and a $Z_{τ}$ -set X in the Tikhonov cube $I^{τ}$ we find a necessary and sufficient condition, in terms of $I^{τ} ∖ X$ , for X to be in the class AE([L]). We also introduce a concept of a proper absolute...

On some representations of almost everywhere continuous functions on $ℝ^{m}$

Ewa Strońska (2006)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

It is proved that the following conditions are equivalent: (a) f is an almost everywhere continuous function on $ℝ^{m}$ ; (b) f = g + h, where g,h are strongly quasicontinuous on $ℝ^{m}$ ; (c) f = c + gh, where c ∈ ℝ and g,h are strongly quasicontinuous on $ℝ^{m}$ .

Some characterization of locally nonconical convex sets

Witold Seredyński (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A closed convex set $Q$ in a local convex topological Hausdorff spaces $X$ is called locally nonconical (LNC) if for every $x, y \in Q$ there exists an open neighbourhood $U$ of $x$ such that $(U \cap Q) + \frac{1}{2} (y - x) \subset Q$ . A set $Q$ is local cylindric (LC) if for $x, y \in Q$ , $x \neq y$ , $z \in (x, y)$ there exists an open neighbourhood $U$ of $z$ such that $U \cap Q$ (equivalently: $b d (Q) \cap U$ ) is a union of open segments parallel to $[x, y]$ . In this paper we prove that these two notions are equivalent. The properties LNC and LC were investigated in [3], where the implication $L N C \Rightarrow L C$ was proved in...

Explicit construction of normal lattice configurations

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We extend Champernowne’s construction of normal numbers to base b to the $ℤ^{d}$ case and obtain an explicit construction of a generic point of the $ℤ^{d}$ shift transformation of the set ${0, 1, . . ., b - 1}^{ℤ^{d}}$ .

Topological properties of some spaces of continuous operators

Marian Nowak (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Similarity:

Let X be a completely regular Hausdorff space, E and F be Banach spaces. Let $C_{b} (X, E)$ be the space of all E-valued bounded continuous functions on X, equipped with the strict topology β. We study topological properties of the space $L_{β} (C_{b} (X, E), F)$ of all $(β, | | \cdot | |_{F})$ -continuous linear operators from $C_{b} (X, E)$ to F, equipped with the topology $τ_{s}$ of simple convergence. If X is a locally compact paracompact space (resp. a P-space), we characterize $τ_{s}$ -compact subsets of $L_{β} (C_{b} (X, E), F)$ in terms of properties of the corresponding sets of the representing...

Addition theorems for dense subspaces

Aleksander V. Arhangel'skii (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We study topological spaces that can be represented as the union of a finite collection of dense metrizable subspaces. The assumption that the subspaces are dense in the union plays a crucial role below. In particular, Example 3.1 shows that a paracompact space $X$ which is the union of two dense metrizable subspaces need not be a $p$ -space. However, if a normal space $X$ is the union of a finite family $μ$ of dense subspaces each of which is metrizable by a complete metric, then $X$ is also metrizable...

A version of the law of large numbers

Katusi Fukuyama (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

By the method of Rio [10], for a locally square integrable periodic function f, we prove $(f (μ ₁^{t} x) + . . . + f (μ ₙ^{t} x)) / n \to \int_{0}^{1} f$ for almost every x and t > 0.

Lattice copies of c₀ and $ℓ^{\infty}$ in spaces of integrable functions for a vector measure

S. Okada, W. J. Ricker, E. A. Sánchez Pérez

Similarity:

The spaces L¹(m) of all m-integrable (resp. $L ¹_{w} (m)$ of all scalarly m-integrable) functions for a vector measure m, taking values in a complex locally convex Hausdorff space X (briefly, lcHs), are themselves lcHs for the mean convergence topology. Additionally, $L ¹_{w} (m)$ is always a complex vector lattice; this is not necessarily so for L¹(m). To identify precisely when L¹(m) is also a complex vector lattice is one of our central aims. Whenever X is sequentially complete, then this is the case. If,...
