Network character and tightness of the compact-open topology

Richard N. Ball, Anthony W. Hager (2006)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

For Tychonoff X and α an infinite cardinal, let α def X : = the minimum number of α  cozero-sets of the Čech-Stone compactification which intersect to X (generalizing -defect), and let rt X : = min α max ( α , α def X ) . Give C ( X ) the compact-open topology. It is shown that τ C ( X ) n χ C ( X ) rt X = max ( L ( X ) , L ( X ) def X ) , where: τ is tightness; n χ is the network character; L ( X ) is the Lindel"of number. For example, it follows that, for X Čech-complete, τ C ( X ) = L ( X ) . The (apparently new) cardinal functions n χ C and rt are compared with several others.

New algebras of functions on topological groups arising from G-spaces

E. Glasner, M. Megrelishvili (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

For a topological group G we introduce the algebra SUC(G) of strongly uniformly continuous functions. We show that SUC(G) contains the algebra WAP(G) of weakly almost periodic functions as well as the algebras LE(G) and Asp(G) of locally equicontinuous and Asplund functions respectively. For the Polish groups of order preserving homeomorphisms of the unit interval and of isometries of the Urysohn space of diameter 1, we show that SUC(G) is trivial. We introduce the notion of fixed point on a class...

New fixed point theorems for mappings satisfying a generalized weakly contractive condition with weaker control functions

Hemant Kumar Nashine (2012)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The purpose of this paper is to derive new common fixed point theorems for a pair of mappings satisfying a more general weakly contractive condition with weaker control functions in a complete metric space. Applications to new fixed point results with conditions of integral type are also given. We furnish an example to demonstrate that these results improve the previously existing ones.

New metrics for weak convergence of distribution functions.

Michael D. Taylor (1985)

Stochastica

Sibley and Sempi have constructed metrics on the space of probability distribution functions with the property that weak convergence of a sequence is equivalent to metric convergence. Sibley's work is a modification of Levy's metric, but Sempi's construction is of a different sort. Here we construct a family of metrics having the same convergence properties as Sibley's and Sempi's but which does not appear to be related to theirs in any simple way. Some instances are brought out in which the metrics...

New proofs of classical insertion theorems

Chris Good, Ian Stares (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We provide new proofs for the classical insertion theorems of Dowker and Michael. The proofs are geometric in nature and highlight the connection with the preservation of normality in products. Both proofs follow directly from the Katětov-Tong insertion theorem and we also discuss a proof of this.

New properties of the concentric circle space and its applications to cardinal inequalities

Shu Hao Sun, Koo Guan Choo (1991)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

It is well-known that the concentric circle space has no G δ -diagonal nor any countable point-separating open cover. In this paper, we reveal two new properties of the concentric circle space, which are the weak versions of G δ -diagonal and countable point-separating open cover. Then we introduce two new cardinal functions and sharpen some known cardinal inequalities.

New regions of stability in input optimization

Sheng Huang, Sanjo Zlobec (1988)

Aplikace matematiky

using point-to-set mappings we identify two new regions of stability in input optimization. Then we extend various results from the literature on optimality conditions, continuity of Lagrange multipliers, and the marginal value formula over the new and some old regions of stability.
