On a shadowing lemma in metric spaces

Tibor Žáčik (1992)

Mathematica Bohemica

In the present paper conditions are studied, under which a pseudo-orbit of a continuous map f : M M , where M is a metric space, is shadowed, in a more general sense, by an accurate orbit of the map f .

On a weak form of uniform convergence

Jaroslav Fuka, Petr Holický (2005)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The notion of Δ -convergence of a sequence of functions is stronger than pointwise convergence and weaker than uniform convergence. It is inspired by the investigation of ill-posed problems done by A.N. Tichonov. We answer a question posed by M. Katětov around 1970 by showing that the only analytic metric spaces X for which pointwise convergence of a sequence of continuous real valued functions to a (continuous) limit function on X implies Δ -convergence are σ -compact spaces. We show that the assumption...

On Asymmetric Distances

Andrea C.G. Mennucci (2013)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

In this paper we discuss asymmetric length structures and asymmetric metric spaces. A length structure induces a (semi)distance function; by using the total variation formula, a (semi)distance function induces a length. In the first part we identify a topology in the set of paths that best describes when the above operations are idempotent. As a typical application, we consider the length of paths defined by a Finslerian functional in Calculus of Variations. In the second part we generalize the...

On butterfly-points in β X , Tychonoff products and weak Lindelöf numbers

Sergei Logunov (2022)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Let X be the Tychonoff product α < τ X α of τ -many Tychonoff non-single point spaces X α . Let p X * be a point in the closure of some G X whose weak Lindelöf number is strictly less than the cofinality of τ . Then we show that β X { p } is not normal. Under some additional assumptions, p is a butterfly-point in β X . In particular, this is true if either X = ω τ or X = R τ and τ is infinite and not countably cofinal.
