D. Rees and J. Sally defined the core of an $R$-ideal $I$ as the intersection of all $($minimal$)$ reductions of $I$. However, it is not easy to give an explicit characterization of it in terms of data attached to the ideal. Until recently,…

A graph is called weakly perfect if its vertex chromatic number equals its clique number. Let $R$ be a ring and $I(R)^*$ be the set of all left proper non-trivial ideals of $R$. The intersection graph of ideals of $R$, denoted by $G(R)$, is…

We define a sequence of positive integers recursively, where each term is determined as follows: starting with a given positive integer, if the term is odd, the next is the sum of its positive divisors; if the term is even, the subsequent…

We show that $n$ is almost perfect if and only if $I(n) - 1 < D(n) \leq I(n)$, where $I(n)$ is the abundancy index of $n$ and $D(n)$ is the deficiency of $n$. This criterion is then extended to the case of integers $m$ satisfying $D(m)>1$.

The main result is that the only non trivial closed ideal in the Banach algebra $L(L^p)$ of bounded linear operators on $L^p(0,1)$, $1\le p < \infty$, that has a left approximate identity is the ideal of compact operators. The algebra…

Let $\mathbf u=(u_n)_{n\in\mathbb N}$ be a sequence in $\mathbb N_+$ with $u_0=1$ and $u_n\mid u_{n+1}$ for every $n\in\mathbb N$, and let $b_n:=u_{n+1}/u_n$ for every $n\in\mathbb N_+$. For every $r\in [0,1)$, there exists a unique…

Solecki has shown that a broad natural class of $G_{\delta}$ ideals of compact sets can be represented through the ideal of nowhere dense subsets of a closed subset of the hyperspace of compact sets. In this note we show that the closed…

It is a ubiquitous opinion among mathematicians that a real number is just a point in the line. If this rough definition is not enough, then a mathematician may provide a formal definition of the real numbers in the set theoretic and…

Let $\mathcal{I}$ be an ideal on $\mathbb{N}$. A mapping $f:X\to Y$ is called an $\mathcal{I}$-covering mapping provided a sequence $\{y_{n}\}_{n\in\mathbb N}$ is $\mathcal{I}$-converging to a point $y$ in $Y$, there is a sequence…

For a discrete group $G$, we consider certain ideals $\mathcal{I}\subset c_0(G)$ of sequences with prescribed rate of convergence to zero. We show that the equality between the full group C$^\ast$-algebra of $G$ and the C$^\ast$-completion…

In this paper using a non-negative regular summability matrix $\mathcal{A}$ and a non-trivial admissible ideal $\mathcal{I}$ in $\mathbb{N}$ we study some basic properties of strong $\mathcal{A}^{\mathcal{I}}$-statistical convergence and…

An \textit{ideal} of $N$-tuples of operators is a class invariant with respect to unitary equivalence which contains direct sums of arbitrary collections of its members as well as their (reduced) parts. New decomposition theorems (with…

Directly infinite algebras, those algebras, $E$ which have a pair of elements $x$ and $y$ where $1 = xy \neq yx$, are well known to have a sub-algebra isomorphic to $M_\infty(K)$, the set of infinite $\zplus \times \zplus$-indexed matrices…

For a set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ that contains the origin we consider $I^m(E)$ -- the set of all $m^{\text{th}}$ degree Taylor approximations (at the origin) of $C^m$ functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ that vanish on $E$. This set is a proper…

If $I$ is an ideal in the ring $C(X)$ of all real valued continuous functions defined over a Tychonoff space $X$, then $X$ is called $I$-$pseudocompact$ if the set $X\setminus \bigcap Z[I]$ is a bounded subset of $X$. Corresponding to $I$,…

We define the notion of ideal convergence for sequences $(x_n)$ with values in topological spaces $X$ with respect to a family $\{F_\eta: \eta \in X\}$ of subsets of $X$ with $\eta \in F_\eta$. Each set $F_\eta$ quantifies the degree of…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with nonzero identity. Let $\mathcal{I}(R)$ be the set of all ideals of $R$ and let $\delta : \mathcal{I}(R)\longrightarrow \mathcal{I}(R)$ be a function. Then $\delta$ is called an expansion function of ideals…

Proper continued fractions are generalized continued fractions with positive integer numerators $a_i$ and integer denominators with $b_i\geq a_i$. In this paper we study the strength of approximation of irrational numbers to their…

Let $G$ consist of all functions $g \colon \omega \to [0,\infty)$ with $g(n) \to \infty$ and $\frac{n}{g(n)} \nrightarrow 0$. Then for each $g\in G$ the family $\mathcal{Z}_g=\{A\subseteq\omega:\ \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\text{card}(A\cap…

Given a family $F$ of subsets of a group $G$ we describe the structure of its thin-completion $\tau^*(F)$, which is the smallest thin-complete family that contains $I$. A family $F$ of subsets of $G$ is called thin-complete if each $F$-thin…
