The $\sigma$-property of a Riesz space (real vector lattice) $B$ is: For each sequence $\left\{b_n\right\}$ of positive elements of $B$, there is a sequence $\left\{{\lambda }_n\right\}$ of positive reals, and $b\in B$, with ${\lambda }_n{b}_n\le b$ for each $n$. This condition is involved in studies in Riesz spaces of abstract Egoroff-type theorems, and of the countable lifting property. Here, we examine when “$\sigma$” obtains for a Riesz space of continuous real-valued functions $C\left(X\right)$. A basic result is: For discrete $X$, $C\left(X\right)$ has $\sigma$ iff the cardinal $\left|X\right|<𝔟$, Rothberger’s bounding number. Consequences...

We prove an interpolatory estimate linking the directional Haar projection $P^{\left(\epsilon \right)}$ to the Riesz transform in the context of Bochner-Lebesgue spaces $L^p(ℝⁿ;X)$, 1 < p < ∞, provided X is a UMD-space. If ${\epsilon }_{i₀}=1$, the result is the inequality $\left|\right|P^{\left(\epsilon \right)}{u\left|\right|}_{L^p(ℝⁿ;X)}{\le C\left|\right|u\left|\right|}_{L^p(ℝⁿ;X)}^{1/}\left|\right|R_{i₀}u{\left|\right|}_{L^p(ℝⁿ;X)}^{1-1/}$, (1) where the constant C depends only on n, p, the UMD-constant of X and the Rademacher type of $L^p(ℝⁿ;X)$. In order to obtain the interpolatory result (1) we analyze stripe operators $S_{\lambda }$, λ ≥ 0, which are used as basic building blocks to dominate the directional Haar projection....

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero and $B$ a $k$-domain. Let $R$ be a retract of $B$ being the kernel of a locally nilpotent derivation of $B$. We show that if $B=R\oplus I$ for some principal ideal $I$ (in particular, if $B$ is a UFD), then $B=R^{\left[1\right]}$, i.e., $B$ is a polynomial algebra over $R$ in one variable. It is natural to ask that, if a retract $R$ of a $k$-UFD $B$ is the kernel of two commuting locally nilpotent derivations of $B$, then does it follow that $B\cong R^{\left[2\right]}$? We give a negative answer to this question. The interest in...

The paper deals with logarithmic capacities, an important tool in pluripotential theory. We show that a class of capacities, which contains the L-capacity, has the following product property: $C_{\nu }\left(E₁\times E₂\right)=min(C_{\nu ₁}\left(E₁\right),C_{\nu ₂}\left(E₂\right))$, where $E_j$ and ${\nu }_j$ are respectively a compact set and a norm in ${ℂ}^{N_j}$ (j = 1,2), and ν is a norm in ${ℂ}^{N₁+N₂}$, ν = ν₁⊕ₚ ν₂ with some 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞. For a convex subset E of ${ℂ}^N$, denote by C(E) the standard L-capacity and by ${\omega }_E$ the minimal width of E, that is, the minimal Euclidean distance between two supporting hyperplanes...

Let $𝕍$ be a separable real Hilbert space, $k\in \mathbb{N}$ with $k<dim𝕍$, and let $B$ be convex and closed in $𝕍$. Let $𝒫$ be a collection of linear $k$-subspaces of $𝕍$. A point $w\in B$ is called exposed by $𝒫$ if there is a $P\in 𝒫$ so that $(w+P)\cap B=\left\{w\right\}$. We show that, under some natural conditions, $B$ can be reconstituted as the convex hull of the closure of all its exposed by $𝒫$ points whenever $𝒫$ is dense and $G_{\delta }$. In addition, we discuss the question when the set of exposed by some $𝒫$ points forms a $G_{\delta }$-set.

Let $ℐ$ be a coherent subsheaf of a locally free sheaf $𝒪\left(E_0\right)$ and suppose that $ℱ=𝒪\left(E_0\right)/ℐ$ has pure codimension. Starting with a residue current $R$ obtained from a locally free resolution of $ℱ$ we construct a vector-valued Coleff-Herrera current $\mu$ with support on the variety associated to $ℱ$ such that $\phi$ is in $ℐ$ if and only if $\mu \phi =0$. Such a current $\mu$ can also be derived algebraically from a fundamental theorem of Roos about the bidualizing functor, and the relation between these two approaches is discussed....

Let $L_c\left(X\right)=\{f\in C\left(X\right):\overline{C_f}=X\}$, where $C_f$ is the union of all open subsets $U\subseteq X$ such that $\left|f\left(U\right)\right|\le {\aleph }_0$. In this paper, we present a pointfree topology version of $L_c\left(X\right)$, named ${ℛ}_{\ell c}\left(L\right)$. We observe that ${ℛ}_{\ell c}\left(L\right)$ enjoys most of the important properties shared by $ℛ\left(L\right)$ and ${ℛ}_c\left(L\right)$, where ${ℛ}_c\left(L\right)$ is the pointfree version of all continuous functions of $C\left(X\right)$ with countable image. The interrelation between $ℛ\left(L\right)$, ${ℛ}_{\ell c}\left(L\right)$, and ${ℛ}_c\left(L\right)$ is examined. We show that $L_c\left(X\right)\cong {ℛ}_{\ell c}\left(𝔒\left(X\right)\right)$ for any space $X$. Frames $L$ for which ${ℛ}_{\ell c}\left(L\right)=ℛ\left(L\right)$ are characterized.

Let $D$ be a ${𝒞}^d$ $q$-convex intersection, $d\ge 2$, $0\le q\le n-1$, in a complex manifold $X$ of complex dimension $n$, $n\ge 2$, and let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle of rank $N$ over $X$. In this paper, ${𝒞}^k$-estimates, $k=2,3,\cdots ,\infty$, for solutions to the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with small loss of smoothness are obtained for $E$-valued $(0,s)$-forms on $D$ when $n-q\le s\le n$. In addition, we solve the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with a support condition in ${𝒞}^k$-spaces. More precisely, we prove that for a $\overline{\partial }$-closed form $f$ in ${𝒞}_{0,q}^k(X\setminus D,E)$, $1\le q\le n-2$, $n\ge 3$, with compact support and for $\epsilon$ with $0<\epsilon <1$ there...

Let $\mathscr{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space, $A$ a positive operator with closed range in $ℬ\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$ and ${ℬ}_A\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$ the sub-algebra of $ℬ\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$ of all $A$-self-adjoint operators. Assume $\phi :{ℬ}_A\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$ onto itself is a linear continuous map. This paper shows that if $\phi$ preserves $A$-unitary operators such that $\phi \left(I\right)=P$ then $\psi$ defined by $\psi \left(T\right)=P\phi \left(PT\right)$ is a homomorphism or an anti-homomorphism and $\psi \left(T^{♯}\right)=\psi {\left(T\right)}^{♯}$ for all $T\in {ℬ}_A\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$, where $P=A^{+}A$ and $A^{+}$ is the Moore-Penrose inverse of $A$. A similar result is also true if $\phi$ preserves $A$-quasi-unitary operators in both directions such that there...

For Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$, let $K_{w^{*}}(X^{*},Y)$ denote the space of all $w^{*}-w$ continuous compact operators from $X^{*}$ to $Y$ endowed with the operator norm. A Banach space $X$ has the $wGP$ property if every Grothendieck subset of $X$ is relatively weakly compact. In this paper we study Banach spaces with property $wGP$. We investigate whether the spaces $K_{w^{*}}(X^{*},Y)$ and $X{\otimes }_{ϵ}Y$ have the $wGP$ property, when $X$ and $Y$ have the $wGP$ property.

For a finite group $G$ and a fixed Sylow $p$-subgroup $P$ of $G$, Ballester-Bolinches and Guo proved in 2000 that $G$ is $p$-nilpotent if every element of $P\cap G^{\text{'}}$ with order $p$ lies in the center of $N_G\left(P\right)$ and when $p=2$, either every element of $P\cap G^{\text{'}}$ with order $4$ lies in the center of $N_G\left(P\right)$ or $P$ is quaternion-free and $N_G\left(P\right)$ is $2$-nilpotent. Asaad introduced weakly pronormal subgroup of $G$ in 2014 and proved that $G$ is $p$-nilpotent if every element of $P$ with order $p$ is weakly pronormal in $G$ and when $p=2$, every element of $P$ with...

The aim of this paper is to characterize the $L^p-L^q$ boundedness of two classes of integral operators from $L^p(𝒰,\mathrm{d}{V}_{\alpha })$ to $L^q(𝒰,\mathrm{d}{V}_{\beta })$ in terms of the parameters $a$, $b$, $c$, $p$, $q$ and $\alpha$, $\beta$, where $𝒰$ is the Siegel upper half-space. The results in the presented paper generalize a corresponding result given in C. Liu, Y. Liu, P. Hu, L. Zhou (2019).
