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 differentiability of certain saltus functions

Gerald Kuba (2011)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We investigate several natural questions on the differentiability of certain strictly increasing singular functions. Furthermore, motivated by the observation that for each famous singular function f investigated in the past, f’(ξ) = 0 if f’(ξ) exists and is finite, we show how, for example, an increasing real function g can be constructed so that g ' ( x ) = 2 x for all rational numbers x and g’(x) = 0 for almost all irrational numbers x.

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 double Lusin condition and convergence theorem for Kurzweil-Henstock type integrals

Abraham Racca, Emmanuel Cabral (2016)

Mathematica Bohemica

Equiintegrability in a compact interval E may be defined as a uniform integrability property that involves both the integrand f n and the corresponding primitive F n . The pointwise convergence of the integrands f n to some f and the equiintegrability of the functions f n together imply that f is also integrable with primitive F and that the primitives F n converge uniformly to F . In this paper, another uniform integrability property called uniform double Lusin condition introduced in the papers E. Cabral...

On the entropy of Darboux functions

Ryszard J. Pawlak (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We prove some results concerning the entropy of Darboux (and almost continuous) functions. We first generalize some theorems valid for continuous functions, and then we study properties which are specific to Darboux functions. Finally, we give theorems on approximating almost continuous functions by functions with infinite entropy.

On the Equivalence of the Riemann-Liouville and the Caputo Fractional Order Derivatives in Modeling of Linear Viscoelastic Materials

Bagley, Ron (2007)

Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis

Mathematics Subject Classification: 26A33In the process of constructing empirical mathematical models of physical phenomena using the fractional calculus, investigators are usually faced with the choice of which definition of the fractional derivative to use, the Riemann-Liouville definition or the Caputo definition. This investigation presents the case that, with some minimal restrictions, the two definitions produce completely equivalent mathematical models of the linear viscoelastic phenomenon....
