1. Introduction. Let ℤ, ℕ, ℚ be the sets of integers, positive integers and rational numbers respectively. In [7], Ribenboim proved that the equation    (1) ( x m + 1 ) ( x n + 1 ) = y ² , x,y,m,n ∈ ℕ, x > 1, n > m ≥ 1, has no solution (x,y,m,n) with 2|x and (1) has only finitely many solutions (x,y,m,n) with 2∤x. Moreover, all solutions of (1) with 2∤x satisfy max(x,m,n) < C, where C is an effectively computable constant. In this paper we completely determine all solutions of (1) as follows.   Theorem....

A generalization of Zeeman’s family

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.

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...

Rigid ε -saturated models of superstable theories

Ziv Shami, Saharon Shelah (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In a countable superstable NDOP theory, the existence of a rigid ε -saturated model implies the existence of 2 λ rigid ε -saturated models of power λ for every λ > 2 0 .

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 .

Ergodicity for piecewise smooth cocycles over toral rotations

Anzelm Iwanik (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let α be an ergodic rotation of the d-torus 𝕋 d = d / d . For any piecewise smooth function f : 𝕋 d with sufficiently regular pieces the unitary operator Vh(x) = exp(2π if(x))h(x + α) acting on L 2 ( 𝕋 d ) is shown to have a continuous non-Dirichlet spectrum if the gradient of f has nonzero integral. In particular, the resulting skew product S f : 𝕋 d + 1 𝕋 d + 1 must be ergodic. If in addition α is sufficiently well approximated by rational vectors and f is represented by a linear function with noninteger coefficients then the spectrum...

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...
