Assuming the continuum hypothesis, we show that (i) there is a compact convex subset L of , and a probability Radon measure on L which has no separable support; (ii) there is a Corson compact space K, and a convex weak*-compact set M of Radon probability measures on K which has no -points.
Gruenhage asked if it was possible to cover the real line by less than continuum many translates of a compact nullset. Under the Continuum Hypothesis the answer is obviously negative. Elekes and Stepr mans gave an affirmative answer by showing that if is the well known compact nullset considered first by Erdős and Kakutani then ℝ can be covered by cof() many translates of . As this set has no analogue in more general groups, it was asked by Elekes and Stepr mans whether such a result holds for...
An irreducible partition of a space is a partition of that space into solid sets with a certain minimality property. Previously, these partitions were studied using the cup product in cohomology. This paper obtains similar results using the fundamental group instead. This allows the use of covering spaces to obtain information about irreducible partitions. This is then used to generalize Knudsen's construction of topological measures on the torus. We give examples of such measures that are invariant...
Topological measures (formerly "quasi-measures") are set functions that generalize measures and correspond to certain non-linear functionals on the space of continuous functions. The goal of this paper is to consider relationships between various families of topological measures on a given space. In particular, we prove density theorems involving classes of simple, representable, extreme topological measures and measures, hence giving a way of approximating various topological measures by members...
We prove that derivatives of any finite order of Donsker's delta functionals are well-defined elements in the space of Hida distributions. We also show the convergence to the derivative of Donsker's delta functionals of two different approximations. Finally, we present an existence result of finite product and infinite series of the derivative of the Donsker delta functionals.
