Remark on the Abstract Dirichlet Problem for Baire-One Functions

Ondřej F. K. Kalenda (2005)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We study the possibility of extending any bounded Baire-one function on the set of extreme points of a compact convex set to an affine Baire-one function and related questions. We give complete solutions to these questions within a class of Choquet simplices introduced by P. J. Stacey (1979). In particular we get an example of a Choquet simplex such that its set of extreme points is not Borel but any bounded Baire-one function on the set of extreme points can be extended to an affine Baire-one function....

Remarks on best approximation in R-trees

William Kirk, Bancha Panyanak (2009)

Annales UMCS, Mathematica

An R-tree is a geodesic space for which there is a unique arc joining any two of its points, and this arc is a metric segment. If X is a closed convex subset of an R-tree Y, and if T: X → 2Y is a multivalued mapping, then a point z for which [...] is called a point of best approximation. It is shown here that if T is an ε-semicontinuous mapping whose values are nonempty closed convex subsets of Y, and if T has at least two distinct points of best approximation, then T must have a fixed point. We...

Remarks on extremally disconnected semitopological groups

Igor V. Protasov (2002)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Answering recent question of A.V. Arhangel'skii we construct in ZFC an extremally disconnected semitopological group with continuous inverse having no open Abelian subgroups.

Remarks on the region of attraction of an isolated invariant set

Konstantin Athanassopoulos (2006)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study the complexity of the flow in the region of attraction of an isolated invariant set. More precisely, we define the instablity depth, which is an ordinal and measures how far an isolated invariant set is from being asymptotically stable within its region of attraction. We provide upper and lower bounds of the instability depth in certain cases.
