Functions of Baire class one

Denny H. Leung, Wee-Kee Tang (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let K be a compact metric space. A real-valued function on K is said to be of Baire class one (Baire-1) if it is the pointwise limit of a sequence of continuous functions. We study two well known ordinal indices of Baire-1 functions, the oscillation index β and the convergence index γ. It is shown that these two indices are fully compatible in the following sense: a Baire-1 function f satisfies $β (f) \leq ω^{ξ ₁} \cdot ω^{ξ ₂}$ for some countable ordinals ξ₁ and ξ₂ if and only if there exists a sequence (fₙ) of Baire-1...

On the closure of Baire classes under transfinite convergences

Tamás Mátrai (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let X be a Polish space and Y be a separable metric space. For a fixed ξ < ω₁, consider a family $f_{α} : X \to Y (α < ω ₁)$ of Baire-ξ functions. Answering a question of Tomasz Natkaniec, we show that if for a function f: X → Y, the set $α < ω ₁ : f_{α} (x) \neq f (x)$ is finite for every x ∈ X, then f itself is necessarily Baire-ξ. The proof is based on a characterization of $Σ ⁰_{η}$ sets which can be interesting in its own right.

Rudin-like sets and hereditary families of compact sets

Étienne Matheron, Miroslav Zelený (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that a comeager Π₁¹ hereditary family of compact sets must have a dense $G_{δ}$ subfamily which is also hereditary. Using this, we prove an “abstract” result which implies the existence of independent ℳ ₀-sets, the meagerness of ₀-sets with the property of Baire, and generalizations of some classical results of Mycielski. Finally, we also give some natural examples of true $F_{σ δ}$ sets.

Insertion of a Contra-Baire- $1$ (Baire- $. 5$ ) Function

Majid Mirmiran (2019)

Communications in Mathematics

Similarity:

Necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of lower cut sets are given for the insertion of a Baire- $. 5$ function between two comparable real-valued functions on the topological spaces that $F_{σ}$ -kernel of sets are $F_{σ}$ -sets.

Baire one functions and their sets of discontinuity

Jonald P. Fenecios, Emmanuel A. Cabral, Abraham P. Racca (2016)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

A characterization of functions in the first Baire class in terms of their sets of discontinuity is given. More precisely, a function $f : ℝ \to ℝ$ is of the first Baire class if and only if for each $ϵ > 0$ there is a sequence of closed sets ${C_{n}}_{n = 1}^{\infty}$ such that $D_{f} = ⋃_{n = 1}^{\infty} C_{n}$ and $ω_{f} (C_{n}) < ϵ$ for each $n$ where $ω_{f} (C_{n}) = sup {| f (x) - f (y) | : x, y \in C_{n}}$ and $D_{f}$ denotes the set of points of discontinuity of $f$ . The proof of the main theorem is based on a recent $ϵ$ - $δ$ characterization of Baire class one functions as well as on a well-known theorem due to Lebesgue. Some direct applications...

Distances to spaces of affine Baire-one functions

Jiří Spurný (2010)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let E be a Banach space and let $ℬ ₁ (B_{E *})$ and $₁ (B_{E *})$ denote the space of all Baire-one and affine Baire-one functions on the dual unit ball $B_{E *}$ , respectively. We show that there exists a separable L₁-predual E such that there is no quantitative relation between $d i s t (f, ℬ ₁ (B_{E *}))$ and $d i s t (f, ₁ (B_{E *}))$ , where f is an affine function on $B_{E *}$ . If the Banach space E satisfies some additional assumption, we prove the existence of some such dependence.

A remark on functions continuous on all lines

Luděk Zajíček (2019)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We prove that each linearly continuous function $f$ on $ℝ^{n}$ (i.e., each function continuous on all lines) belongs to the first Baire class, which answers a problem formulated by K. C. Ciesielski and D. Miller (2016). The same result holds also for $f$ on an arbitrary Banach space $X$ , if $f$ has moreover the Baire property. We also prove (extending a known finite-dimensional result) that such $f$ on a separable $X$ is continuous at all points outside a first category set which is also null in any usual...

Baire classes of complex $L_{1}$ -preduals

Pavel Ludvík, Jiří Spurný (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $X$ be a complex $L_{1}$ -predual, non-separable in general. We investigate extendability of complex-valued bounded homogeneous Baire- $α$ functions on the set $ext B_{X^{*}}$ of the extreme points of the dual unit ball $B_{X^{*}}$ to the whole unit ball $B_{X^{*}}$ . As a corollary we show that, given $α \in [1, ω_{1})$ , the intrinsic $α$ -th Baire class of $X$ can be identified with the space of bounded homogeneous Baire- $α$ functions on the set $ext B_{X^{*}}$ when $ext B_{X^{*}}$ satisfies certain topological assumptions. The paper is intended to be a complex counterpart to...

On Borel reducibility in generalized Baire space

Sy-David Friedman, Tapani Hyttinen, Vadim Kulikov (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study the Borel reducibility of Borel equivalence relations on the generalized Baire space $κ^{κ}$ for an uncountable κ with $κ^{< κ} = κ$ . The theory looks quite different from its classical counterpart where κ = ω, although some basic theorems do generalize.

Operators on the stopping time space

Dimitris Apatsidis (2015)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let S¹ be the stopping time space and ℬ₁(S¹) be the Baire-1 elements of the second dual of S¹. To each element x** in ℬ₁(S¹) we associate a positive Borel measure $μ_{x * *}$ on the Cantor set. We use the measures $μ_{x * *} : x * * \in ℬ ₁ (S ¹)$ to characterize the operators T: X → S¹, defined on a space X with an unconditional basis, which preserve a copy of S¹. In particular, if X = S¹, we show that T preserves a copy of S¹ if and only if $μ_{T * * (x * *)} : x * * \in ℬ ₁ (S ¹)$ is non-separable as a subset of $ℳ (2^{ℕ})$ .

Generic power series on subsets of the unit disk

Balázs Maga, Péter Maga (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We examine the boundary behaviour of the generic power series $f$ with coefficients chosen from a fixed bounded set $Λ$ in the sense of Baire category. Notably, we prove that for any open subset $U$ of the unit disk $D$ with a nonreal boundary point on the unit circle, $f (U)$ is a dense set of $ℂ$ . As it is demonstrated, this conclusion does not necessarily hold for arbitrary open sets accumulating to the unit circle. To complement these results, a characterization of coefficient sets having this property...

Consistency of the Silver dichotomy in generalised Baire space

Sy-David Friedman (2014)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Silver’s fundamental dichotomy in the classical theory of Borel reducibility states that any Borel (or even co-analytic) equivalence relation with uncountably many classes has a perfect set of classes. The natural generalisation of this to the generalised Baire space $κ^{κ}$ for a regular uncountable κ fails in Gödel’s L, even for κ-Borel equivalence relations. We show here that Silver’s dichotomy for κ-Borel equivalence relations in $κ^{κ}$ for uncountable regular κ is however consistent (with...

Decomposing Borel functions using the Shore-Slaman join theorem

Takayuki Kihara (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Jayne and Rogers proved that every function from an analytic space into a separable metrizable space is decomposable into countably many continuous functions with closed domains if and only if the preimage of each $F_{σ}$ set under that function is again $F_{σ}$ . Many researchers conjectured that the Jayne-Rogers theorem can be generalized to all finite levels of Borel functions. In this paper, by using the Shore-Slaman join theorem on the Turing degrees, we show the following variant of the Jayne-Rogers...

Diagonals of separately continuous functions of $n$ variables with values in strongly $σ$ -metrizable spaces

Olena Karlova, Volodymyr Mykhaylyuk, Oleksandr Sobchuk (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We prove the result on Baire classification of mappings $f : X \times Y \to Z$ which are continuous with respect to the first variable and belongs to a Baire class with respect to the second one, where $X$ is a $P P$ -space, $Y$ is a topological space and $Z$ is a strongly $σ$ -metrizable space with additional properties. We show that for any topological space $X$ , special equiconnected space $Z$ and a mapping $g : X \to Z$ of the $(n - 1)$ -th Baire class there exists a strongly separately continuous mapping $f : X^{n} \to Z$ with the diagonal $g$ . For wide classes...

Transportation flow problems with Radon measure variables

Marcus Wagner (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Similarity:

For a multidimensional control problem ${(P)}_{K}$ involving controls $u \in L_{\infty}$ , we construct a dual problem ${(D)}_{K}$ in which the variables ν to be paired with u are taken from the measure space rca (Ω,) instead of $(L_{\infty}) *$ . For this purpose, we add to ${(P)}_{K}$ a Baire class restriction for the representatives of the controls u. As main results, we prove a strong duality theorem and saddle-point conditions.

Hereditarily Hurewicz spaces and Arhangel'skii sheaf amalgamations

Boaz Tsaban, Lubomyr Zdomsky (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

A classical theorem of Hurewicz characterizes spaces with the Hurewicz covering property as those having bounded continuous images in the Baire space. We give a similar characterization for spaces $X$ which have the Hurewicz property hereditarily. We proceed to consider the class of Arhangel’skii $α_{1}$ spaces, for which every sheaf at a point can be amalgamated in a natural way. Let $C_{p} (X)$ denote the space of continuous real-valued functions on $X$ with the topology of pointwise convergence. Our...

On strong measure zero subsets of $^{κ} 2$

Aapo Halko, Saharon Shelah (2001)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study the generalized Cantor space $^{κ} 2$ and the generalized Baire space $^{κ} κ$ as analogues of the classical Cantor and Baire spaces. We equip $^{κ} κ$ with the topology where a basic neighborhood of a point η is the set ν: (∀j < i)(ν(j) = η(j)), where i < κ. We define the concept of a strong measure zero set of $^{κ} 2$ . We prove for successor $κ = κ^{< κ}$ that the ideal of strong measure zero sets of $^{κ} 2$ is $_{κ}$ -additive, where $_{κ}$ is the size of the smallest unbounded family in $^{κ} κ$ , and that the generalized Borel...

Sharkovskiĭ's theorem holds for some discontinuous functions

Piotr Szuca (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that the Sharkovskiĭ ordering of periods of a continuous real function is also valid for every function with connected $G_{δ}$ graph. In particular, it is valid for every DB₁ function and therefore for every derivative. As a tool we apply an Itinerary Lemma for functions with connected $G_{δ}$ graph.

Descriptive properties of elements of biduals of Banach spaces

Pavel Ludvík, Jiří Spurný (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

If E is a Banach space, any element x** in its bidual E** is an affine function on the dual unit ball $B_{E *}$ that might possess a variety of descriptive properties with respect to the weak* topology. We prove several results showing that descriptive properties of x** are quite often determined by the behaviour of x** on the set of extreme points of $B_{E *}$ , generalizing thus results of J. Saint Raymond and F. Jellett. We also prove a result on the relation between Baire classes and intrinsic Baire...
