Selection principles and upper semicontinuous functions

Masami Sakai (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

In connection with a conjecture of Scheepers, Bukovský introduced properties wQN* and SSP* and asked whether wQN* implies SSP*. We prove it in this paper. We also give characterizations of properties S₁(Γ,Ω) and S f i n ( Γ , Ω ) in terms of upper semicontinuous functions

On topological groups with a small base and metrizability

Saak Gabriyelyan, Jerzy Kąkol, Arkady Leiderman (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

A (Hausdorff) topological group is said to have a -base if it admits a base of neighbourhoods of the unit, U α : α , such that U α U β whenever β ≤ α for all α , β . The class of all metrizable topological groups is a proper subclass of the class T G of all topological groups having a -base. We prove that a topological group is metrizable iff it is Fréchet-Urysohn and has a -base. We also show that any precompact set in a topological group G T G is metrizable, and hence G is strictly angelic. We deduce from...

On Grosswald's conjecture on primitive roots

Stephen D. Cohen, Tomás Oliveira e Silva, Tim Trudgian (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Grosswald’s conjecture is that g(p), the least primitive root modulo p, satisfies g(p) ≤ √p - 2 for all p > 409. We make progress towards this conjecture by proving that g(p) ≤ √p -2 for all 409 < p < 2 . 5 × 10 15 and for all p > 3 . 38 × 10 71 .

Extremely primitive groups and linear spaces

Haiyan Guan, Shenglin Zhou (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A non-regular primitive permutation group is called extremely primitive if a point stabilizer acts primitively on each of its nontrivial orbits. Let 𝒮 be a nontrivial finite regular linear space and G Aut ( 𝒮 ) . Suppose that G is extremely primitive on points and let rank ( G ) be the rank of G on points. We prove that rank ( G ) 4 with few exceptions. Moreover, we show that Soc ( G ) is neither a sporadic group nor an alternating group, and G = PSL ( 2 , q ) with q + 1 a Fermat prime if Soc ( G ) is a finite classical simple group. ...

Lower semicontinuous envelopes in W 1 , 1 × L p

Ana Margarida Ribeiro, Elvira Zappale (2014)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The lower semicontinuity of functionals of the type Ω f ( x , u , v , u ) d x with respect to the ( W 1 , 1 × L p ) -weak* topology is studied. Moreover, in absence of lower semicontinuity, an integral representation in W 1 , 1 × L p for the lower semicontinuous envelope is also provided.

On the Hausdorff Dimension of Topological Subspaces

Tomasz Szarek, Maciej Ślęczka (2006)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

It is shown that every Polish space X with d i m T X d admits a compact subspace Y such that d i m H Y d where d i m T and d i m H denote the topological and Hausdorff dimensions, respectively.

Growth of a primitive of a differential form

Jean-Claude Sikorav (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

For an exact differential form on a Riemannian manifold to have a primitive bounded by a given function f , by Stokes it has to satisfy some weighted isoperimetric inequality. We show the converse up to some constants if M has bounded geometry. For a volume form, it suffices to have the inequality ( | Ω | Ω f d σ for every compact domain Ω M ). This implies in particular the “well-known” result that if M is the universal covering of a compact Riemannian manifold with non-amenable fundamental group, then...

Minimax theorems without changeless proportion

Liang-Ju Chu, Chi-Nan Tsai (2003)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Similarity:

The so-called minimax theorem means that if X and Y are two sets, and f and g are two real-valued functions defined on X×Y, then under some conditions the following inequality holds: i n f y Y s u p x X f ( x , y ) s u p x X i n f y Y g ( x , y ) . We will extend the two functions version of minimax theorems without the usual condition: f ≤ g. We replace it by a milder condition: s u p x X f ( x , y ) s u p x X g ( x , y ) , ∀y ∈ Y. However, we require some restrictions; such as, the functions f and g are jointly upward, and their upper sets are connected. On the other hand, by using some...

Nonnormality of remainders of some topological groups

Aleksander V. Arhangel&amp;#039;skii, J. van Mill (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

It is known that every remainder of a topological group is Lindelöf or pseudocompact. Motivated by this result, we study in this paper when a topological group G has a normal remainder. In a previous paper we showed that under mild conditions on G , the Continuum Hypothesis implies that if the Čech-Stone remainder G * of G is normal, then it is Lindelöf. Here we continue this line of investigation, mainly for the case of precompact groups. We show that no pseudocompact group, whose weight...
