A solution to Comfort's question on the countable compactness of powers of a topological group

Artur Hideyuki Tomita (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

In 1990, Comfort asked Question 477 in the survey book “Open Problems in Topology”: Is there, for every (not necessarily infinite) cardinal number α 2 , a topological group G such that G γ is countably compact for all cardinals γ < α, but G α is not countably compact? Hart and van Mill showed in 1991 that α = 2 answers this question affirmatively under M A c o u n t a b l e . Recently, Tomita showed that every finite cardinal answers Comfort’s question in the affirmative, also from M A c o u n t a b l e . However, the question has remained...

A space C(K) where all nontrivial complemented subspaces have big densities

Piotr Koszmider (2005)

Studia Mathematica

Using the method of forcing we prove that consistently there is a Banach space (of continuous functions on a totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space) of density κ bigger than the continuum where all operators are multiplications by a continuous function plus a weakly compact operator and which has no infinite-dimensional complemented subspaces of density continuum or smaller. In particular no separable infinite-dimensional subspace has a complemented superspace of density continuum or smaller,...

A stochastic model of choice.

Sergei V. Ovchinnikov (1985)

Stochastica

An approach to choice function theory is suggested which is probabilistic and non-deterministic. In the framework of this approach fuzzy choice functions are introduced and a number of necessary and sufficient conditions for a fuzzy choice function to be a fuzzy rational choice function of a certain type are established.

A strongly non-Ramsey uncountable graph

Péter Komjáth (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

It is consistent that there exists a graph X of cardinality 1 such that every graph has an edge coloring with 1 colors in which the induced copies of X (if there are any) are totally multicolored (get all possible colors).

A theoretical comparison of disco and CADIAG-II-like systems for medical diagnoses

Tatiana Kiseliova (2006)

Kybernetika

In this paper a fuzzy relation-based framework is shown to be suitable to describe not only knowledge-based medical systems, explicitly using fuzzy approaches, but other ways of knowledge representation and processing. A particular example, the practically tested medical expert system Disco, is investigated from this point of view. The system is described in the fuzzy relation-based framework and compared with CADIAG-II-like systems that are a “pattern” for computer-assisted diagnosis systems based...

A topological application of flat morasses

R. W. Knight (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We define combinatorial structures which we refer to as flat morasses, and use them to construct a Lindelöf space with points G δ of cardinality ω , consistent with GCH. The construction reveals, it is hoped, that flat morasses are a tool worth adding to the kit of any user of set theory.
