The Dirichlet Problem for Sublaplacians on Nilpotent Gruops - Geometric Criteria For Regularity.
It is shown that the methods developed in an earlier paper of the author about a Dirichlet problem for the Silov boundary [Annales Inst. Fourier, 11 (1961)] lead in a new and natural way to the most important results about the convergence of positive linear operators on spaces of continuous functions defined on a compact space. Choquet’s notion of an adapted space of continuous functions in connection with results of Mokobodzki-Sibony opens the possibility of extending these results to the case...
Let be a domain of type in a Brelot potential theory. A compact in is a in iff has at most countably many components. If is a relatively closed locally polar subset of , any in is a in . If is a domain in , all Borel subsets of are Baire even if is not metrizable. The known results concerning equivalences between weak thinness, thinness, and strong thinness of a set at a point are extended from the case where is a to the cases in which meets only countably...
