Let $\mathcal{F} $ be a pointwise almost periodic decomposition of a compact metrizable space $X$. Then $\mathcal{F} $ is $R$-closed if and only if $\hat{\mathcal{F}} $ is usc. Moreover, if there is a finite index normal subgroup $H$ of an…

For an analytic function $f(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_kz^k$ on a neighbourhood of a closed disc $D\subset {\bf C}$, we give assumptions, in terms of the Taylor coefficients $a_k$ of $f$, under which the number of intersection points of the…

In a recent paper, Kolountzakis and Papageorgiou ask if for every $\epsilon \in (0,1]$, there exists a set $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ such that $\vert S \cap I\vert \geq 1 - \epsilon$ for every interval $I \subset \mathbb{R}$ with unit…

We provide a concise, yet fairly complete discussion of the concept of essential closures of subsets of the real axis and their intimate connection with the topological support of absolutely continuous measures. As an elementary application…

We consider Gomory and Johnson's infinite group model with a single row. Valid inequalities for this model are expressed by valid functions and it has been recently shown that any valid function is dominated by some nonnegative valid…

Let $C$ be a closed cone with nonempty interior $C^\circ$ in a Banach space. Let $f:C^\circ \rightarrow C^\circ$ be an order-preserving subhomogeneous function with a fixed point in $C^\circ$. We introduce a condition which guarantees that…

We show that if $X$ is a separable locally compact Hausdorff connected space with fewer than $\mathfrak c$ non-cut points, then $X$ embeds into a dendrite $D\subseteq \mathbb R ^2$, and the set of non-cut points of $X$ is a nowhere dense…

We prove that the smallest minimizer s(f) of a real convex function f is less than or equal to a real point x if and only if the right derivative of f at x is non-negative. Similarly, the largest minimizer t(f) is greater or equal to x if…

We present an example of a compact connected F-space with a continuous real-valued function f for which the union of the interiors of its fibers is not dense. This indirectly answers a question from Abramovich and Kitover in the negative.

For $0 < \alpha \leq 1$, let $E$ be a compact subset of the $d$-dimensional moment curve in $\mathbb{R}^d$ such that $N(E,\varepsilon) \lesssim \varepsilon^{-\alpha}$ for $0 <\varepsilon <1$ where $N(E,\varepsilon)$ is the smallest number…

In this paper, we investigate and find a necessary and sufficient condition for a function to be absolutely continuous over $\mathbb{R}$ (denoted by $AC(\mathbb{R})$) or any unbounded interval in $\mathbb{R}$ . Note that the Lebesgue's…

We prove that every nonnegative continuous real-valued function on a given compact metric space is the uniform limit of some increasing sequence of nonnegative simple functions being linear combinations of indicators of open sets; here the…

We prove a fixpoint theorem for contractions on Cauchy-complete quantale-enriched categories. It holds for any quantale whose underlying lattice is continuous, and applies to contractions whose control function is sequentially…

Let $(K,|\cdot|)$ be a complete discretely valued field and $f:{\mathbb B}_1(K,1) \to {\mathbb B}_1(K,1)$ a nonconstant analytic map from the unit back to itself. We assume that 0 is an attracting fixed point of $f$. Let $a \in K$ with…

Let S\subset (0,1). Given a known function f:S\to (0,1), we consider the problem of using independent tosses of a coin with probability of heads p (where p\in S is unknown) to simulate a coin with probability of heads f(p). We prove that if…

The empty set of course contains no computable point. On the other hand, surprising results due to Zaslavskii, Tseitin, Kreisel, and Lacombe assert the existence of NON-empty co-r.e. closed sets devoid of computable points: sets which are…

In this article we treat a notion of continuity for a multi-valued function $F$ and we compute the descriptive set-theoretic complexity of the set of all $x$ for which $F$ is continuous at $x$. We give conditions under which the latter set…

Let $f = f(z,t)$ be a function holomorphic in $z \in O \subseteq {\mathbb C}^d$ for fixed $t\in \Omega$ and measurable in $t$ for fixed $z$ and such that$z \mapsto f(z,\cdot)$ is bounded with values in$E := L_{p}(\Omega)$, $1\le p \le…

We derive general formula for the fourth coefficient of the functions belonging to the Carath\'{e}odory class involving the parameters lying in the open unit disk. Further, we obtain sharp upper bounds of initial inverse coefficients for…

Assume hat a functionally Hausdorff space $X$ is a continuous image of a \v{C}ech complete space $P$ with Lindel\"of number $l(P)<\mathfrak c$. Then the following conditions are equivalent: (i) every compact subset of $X$ is scattered, (ii)…
