We prove that for any positive integer c there are at least N(c), $1\leq N(c) < \phi(c)/2$ representations of c as a sum of two positive integers a, b, with no common divisor, such that the N(c) radicals R(abc) are all greater than kc,…

We show that every Banach space containing isomorphic copies of $c_0$ can be equivalently renormed so that every nonempty relatively weakly open subset of its unit ball has diameter 2 and, however, its unit ball still contains convex…

It was proved that whenever N is partitioned into finitely many cells, one cell must contain arbitrary length geo-arithmetic progressions. It was also proved that arithmetic and geometric progressions can be nicely intertwined in one cell…

Let $G$ be a finite cyclic group. Every sequence $S$ over $G$ can be written in the form $S=(n_1g)\cdot...\cdot(n_lg)$ where $g\in G$ and $n_1,\cdots,n_l\in[1,{\hbox{\rm ord}}(g)]$, and the index $\ind(S)$ of $S$ is defined to be the…

A graph $G$ is $(c,t)$-sparse if for every pair of vertex subsets $A,B\subset V(G)$ with $|A|,|B|\geq t$, $e(A,B)\leq (1-c)|A||B|$. In this paper we prove that for every $c>0$ and integer $\ell$, there exists $C>1$ such that if an…

For a family {k_t | t \in I} of real C^2 functions defined on U (I, U -- open intervals) and satisfying some mild regularity conditions, we prove that the mapping I \ni t --> k_t^{-1}(\sum_{i=1}^n w_i k_t(a_i)) is a continuous bijection…

Let $\mathbb Z_n$ be the cyclic group of order $n \ge 3$ additively written. S. Savchev \& F. Chen (2007) proved that for each zero-sum free sequence $S = a_1 \bullet \dots \bullet a_t$ over $\mathbb Z_n$ of length $t > n/2$, there is an…

We investigate isomorphic embeddings $T: C(K)\to C(L)$ between Banach spaces of continuous functions. We show that if such an embedding $T$ is a positive operator then $K$ is an image of $L$ under a upper semicontinuous set-function having…

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space over the finite field $\mathbb{F} _{q} $, and ${V\brack k}$ denote the family of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$. The families $\mathcal{F},\mathcal{G}\subseteq {V\brack k}$ are said to be…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra, not necessarily unital, and let $B$ be a closed subalgebra of $A$. We establish a connection between the Banach cyclic cohomology group $ {\cal{HC}}^n(A)$ of $A$ and the Banach $B$-relative cyclic cohomology…

We establish a family of inequalities that hold true on any $6$ points in any $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ space. We prove that the validity of these inequalities does not follow from any properties of $5$-point subsets of $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ spaces. In…

In 2001, Woodall conjectured that for every pair of integers $s,t \ge 1$, all graphs without a $K_{s,t}$-minor are $(s+t-1)$-choosable. In this note we refute this conjecture in a strong form: We prove that for every choice of constants…

We deal with isomorphic Banach-Stone type theorems for closed subspaces of vector-valued continuous functions. Let $\mathbb{F}=\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. For $i=1,2$, let $E_i$ be a reflexive Banach space over $\mathbb{F}$ with a certain…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of isotone cones in Banach spaces. Then we apply the order monotonic property of the metric projection operator to prove the existence of best approximations for some operators without continuity…

The classical inequality of Bohr asserts that if a power series converges in the unit disk and its sum has modulus less than or equal to $1$, then the sum of absolute values of its terms is less than or equal to $1$ for the subdisk…

A $t$-structure $t=(C_{t\le 0},C_{t\ge 0})$ on a triangulated category $C$ is right adjacent to a weight structure $w=(C_{w\le 0}, C_{w\ge 0})$ if $C_{t\ge 0}=C_{w\ge 0}$; then $t$ can be uniquely recovered from $w$ and vice versa. We prove…

A Banach space $X$ is said to have property ($\mu^s$) if every weak$^*$-null sequence in $X^*$ admits a subsequence such that all of its subsequences are Ces\`{a}ro convergent to $0$ with respect to the Mackey topology. This is stronger…

For every well founded tree $\mathcal{T}$ having a unique root such that every non-maximal node of it has countable infinitely many immediate successors, we construct a $\mathcal{L}_\infty$-space $X_{\mathcal{T}}$. We prove that for each…

A well-known result of R. Pol states that a Banach space $X$ has property ($\mathcal{C}$) of Corson if and only if every point in the weak*-closure of any convex set $C \subseteq B_{X^*}$ is actually in the weak*-closure of a countable…

Let $C$ be a cone in a locally convex Hausdorff topological vector space $X$ containing $0$. We show that there exists a (essentially unique) nonempty family $\mathscr{K}$ of nonempty subsets of the topological dual $X^\prime$ such that $$…
