A Banach space $X$ has the reciprocal Dunford-Pettis property ($RDPP$) if every completely continuous operator $T$ from $X$ to any Banach space $Y$ is weakly compact. A Banach space $X$ has the $RDPP$ (resp. property $\left(wL\right)$) if every $L$-subset of $X^{*}$ is relatively weakly compact (resp. weakly precompact). We prove that the projective tensor product $X\otimes {}_{\pi }Y$ has property $\left(wL\right)$ when $X$ has the $RDPP$, $Y$ has property $\left(wL\right)$, and $L(X,Y^{*})=K(X,Y^{*})$.

We study the functional $I_f\left(u\right)={\int }_{\Omega }f\left(u\left(x\right)\right)dx$, where u=(u₁, ..., uₘ) and each $u_j$ is constant along some subspace $W_j$ of ℝⁿ. We show that if intersections of the $W_j$’s satisfy a certain condition then $I_f$ is weakly lower semicontinuous if and only if f is Λ-convex (see Definition 1.1 and Theorem 1.1). We also give a necessary and sufficient condition on ${W_j}_{j=1,...,m}$ to have the equivalence: $I_f$ is weakly continuous if and only if f is Λ-affine.

The notion of $\beta$-normality was introduced and studied by Arhangel’skii, Ludwig in 2001. Recently, almost $\beta$-normal spaces, which is a simultaneous generalization of $\beta$-normal and almost normal spaces, were introduced by Das, Bhat and Tartir. We introduce a new generalization of normality, namely weak $\beta$-normality, in terms of $\theta$-closed sets, which turns out to be a simultaneous generalization of $\beta$-normality and $\theta$-normality. A space $X$ is said to be weakly $\beta$-normal (w$\beta$-normal$)$ if for every...

For a subset $A$ of the real line $ℝ$, Hattori space $H\left(A\right)$ is a topological space whose underlying point set is the reals $ℝ$ and whose topology is defined as follows: points from $A$ are given the usual Euclidean neighborhoods while remaining points are given the neighborhoods of the Sorgenfrey line. In this paper, among other things, we give conditions on $A$ which are sufficient and necessary for $H\left(A\right)$ to be respectively almost Čech-complete, Čech-complete, quasicomplete, Čech-analytic and weakly separated...

Let $W$ be the subspace of ${\mathbb{N}}^{*}$ consisting of all weak $P$-points. It is not hard to see that $W$ is a pseudocompact space. In this paper we shall prove that this space has stronger pseudocompact properties. Indeed, it is shown that $W$ is a $p$-pseudocompact space for all $p\in {\mathbb{N}}^{*}$.

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 $n=2m\ge 4$, let $\Omega \in {ℝ}^n$ be a bounded smooth domain and $𝒩\subset {ℝ}^L$ a compact smooth Riemannian manifold without boundary. Suppose that $\left\{u_k\right\}\in W^{m,2}(\Omega ,𝒩)$ is a sequence of weak solutions in the critical dimension to the perturbed $m$-polyharmonic maps $$\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}{|}_{t=0}{E}_m\left(\Pi (u+t\xi )\right)=0$$ with ${\Phi }_k\to 0$ in ${\left(W^{m,2}(\Omega ,𝒩)\right)}^{*}$ and $u_k\rightharpoonup u$ weakly in $W^{m,2}(\Omega ,𝒩)$. Then $u$ is an $m$-polyharmonic map. In particular, the space of $m$-polyharmonic maps is sequentially compact for the weak-$W^{m,2}$ topology.

A vector $x$ is said to be an eigenvector of a square max-min matrix $A$ if $A\otimes x=x$. An eigenvector $x$ of $A$ is called the greatest $𝐗$-eigenvector of $A$ if $x\in 𝐗=\{x;\underline{x}\le x\le \overline{x}\}$ and $y\le x$ for each eigenvector $y\in 𝐗$. A max-min matrix $A$ is called strongly $𝐗$-robust if the orbit $x,A\otimes x,A^2\otimes x,\cdots$ reaches the greatest $𝐗$-eigenvector with any starting vector of $𝐗$. We suggest an $O\left(n^3\right)$ algorithm for computing the greatest $𝐗$-eigenvector of $A$ and study the strong $𝐗$-robustness. The necessary and sufficient conditions for strong $𝐗$-robustness are introduced...

Let $X$ be a Stein manifold of complex dimension $n\ge 2$ and $\Omega ⋐X$ be a relatively compact domain with $C^2$ smooth boundary in $X$. Assume that $\Omega$ is a weakly $q$-pseudoconvex domain in $X$. The purpose of this paper is to establish sufficient conditions for the closed range of $\overline{\partial }$ on $\Omega$. Moreover, we study the $\overline{\partial }$-problem on $\Omega$. Specifically, we use the modified weight function method to study the weighted $\overline{\partial }$-problem with exact support in $\Omega$. Our method relies on the $L^2$-estimates by Hörmander (1965) and by Kohn (1973). ...

Inspired by a result from Leibov, we find that the supremum defining the $BLO$ norm in $[0,1]$ is actually attained by a specific sub-interval of $[0,1]$ for $f\in VLO([0,1])$

Let $f^j={\sum }_k{a}_{k}f(2^{j+1}x-2k)$, where the sum is taken over the lattice of all points k in ${ℝ}^n$ having integer-valued components, j∈ℕ and $a_k\in ℂ$. Let $A_{pq}^s$ be either $B_{pq}^s$ or $F_{pq}^s$ (s ∈ ℝ, 0 < p < ∞, 0 < q ≤ ∞) on ${ℝ}^n.$ The aim of the paper is to clarify under what conditions $\parallel f^j|A_{pq}^s\parallel$ is equivalent to $2^{j(s-n/p)}({\sum }_k|a_k{|}^p{)}^{1/p}\parallel f|A_{pq}^s\parallel$.
