On the almost monotone convergence of sequences of continuous functions

Zbigniew Grande (2011)

Open Mathematics

A sequence (f n)n of functions f n: X → ℝ almost decreases (increases) to a function f: X → ℝ if it pointwise converges to f and for each point x ∈ X there is a positive integer n(x) such that f n+1(x) ≤ f n (x) (f n+1(x) ≥ f n(x)) for n ≥ n(x). In this article I investigate this convergence in some families of continuous functions.

On the closure of Baire classes under transfinite convergences

Tamás Mátrai (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

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

On the difference property of Borel measurable functions

Hiroshi Fujita, Tamás Mátrai (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

If an atomlessly measurable cardinal exists, then the class of Lebesgue measurable functions, the class of Borel functions, and the Baire classes of all orders have the difference property. This gives a consistent positive answer to Laczkovich's Problem 2 [Acta Math. Acad. Sci. Hungar. 35 (1980)]. We also give a complete positive answer to Laczkovich's Problem 3 concerning Borel functions with Baire-α differences.

On the Dirichlet problem for functions of the first Baire class

Jiří Spurný (2001)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Let be a simplicial function space on a metric compact space X . Then the Choquet boundary Ch X of is an F σ -set if and only if given any bounded Baire-one function f on Ch X there is an -affine bounded Baire-one function h on X such that h = f on Ch X . This theorem yields an answer to a problem of F. Jellett from [8] in the case of a metrizable set X .

On the insertion of Darboux functions

Aleksander Maliszewski (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

The main goal of this paper is to characterize the family of all functions f which satisfy the following condition: whenever g is a Darboux function and f < g on ℝ there is a Darboux function h such that f < h < g on ℝ.

On the pointwise limits of sequences of Świątkowski functions

Tomasz Natkaniec, Julia Wódka (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The characterization of the pointwise limits of the sequences of Świątkowski functions is given. Modifications of Świątkowski property with respect to different topologies finer than the Euclidean topology are discussed.
