We continue a study of the relations between two consequences of the Continuum Hypothesis discovered by Waclaw Sierpinski, concerning uniform continuity of continuous functions and uniform convergence of sequences of real-valued functions,…

The separately continuity topology is considered and some its properties are investigated. With help of these properties a generalization of Sierpinski theorem on determination of real separately continuous function by its values on an…

The Continuum Hypothesis implies an Erd\"os-Sierpi\'nski like duality between the ideal of first category subsets of $\reals^{\naturals}$, and the ideal of countable dimensional subsets of $\reals^{\naturals}$. The algebraic sum of a…

This paper presents and defends an argument that the continuum hypothesis is false, based on considerations about objective chance and an old theorem due to Banach and Kuratowski. More specifically, I argue that the probabilistic inductive…

Recently it has been proved that, assuming that there is an almost disjoint family of cardinality (2^{\mathfrak c}) in (\mathfrak c) (which is assured, for instance, by either Martin's Axiom, or CH, or even $2^{<\mathfrak c=\mathfrak c$})…

The Hurewicz property is a classical generalization of $\sigma$-compactness and Sierpi\'nski sets (whose existence follows from CH) are standard examples of non-$\sigma$-compact Hurewicz spaces. We show, solving a problem stated by Szewczak…

We study a recent conjecture proposed by Horst Alzer and Janusz Matkowski concerning a bilinearity property of the Cauchy exponential difference for real-to-real functions. The original conjecture was affirmatively resolved by Tomasz…

Let $\sigma(n)$ denote the sum of the positive divisors of $n$. We prove that for any positive integer $k$, there is a number $m$ for which the equation $\sigma(x)=m$ has exactly $k$ solutions, settling a conjecture of Sierpi\'nski from…

Let $G \otimes _f H$ denote the Sierpi\'nski product of graphs $G$ and $H$ with respect to the function $f$. The Sierpi\'nski general position number ${\rm gp}{_{\rm S}}(G,H)$ is introduced as the cardinality of a largest general position…

We develop causality theory for upper semi-continuous distributions of cones over manifolds generalizing results from mathematical relativity in two directions: non-round cones and non-regular differentiability assumptions. We prove the…

We show that the main results of the expected utility and dual utility theories can be derived in a unified way from two fundamental mathematical ideas: the separation principle of convex analysis, and integral representations of continuous…

A theorem of Sierpi\'nski says that every infinite set Q of reals contains an infinite number of disjoint subsets whose outer Lebesgue measure is the same as that of Q. He also has a similar theorem involving the Baire property. We give a…

We discuss some problems posed by Ciesielski. For example we show that, consistently, d_c is a singular cardinal and e_c<d_c. Next we prove that the Martin Axiom for sigma --centered forcing notions implies that for every function f:R^2…

Motivated by the well-known implications among $t$-convexity properties of real functions, analogous relations among the upper and lower $M$-convexity properties of real functions are established. More precisely, having an $n$-tuple…

Some physical consequences of the negation of the continuum hypothesis are considered. It is shown that quantum and classical mechanics are component parts of the multicomponent description of the set of variable infinite cardinality.…

Cauchy's sum theorem is a prototype of what is today a basic result on the convergence of a series of functions in undergraduate analysis. We seek to interpret Cauchy's proof, and discuss the related epistemological questions involved in…

The first known continuous extension result was obtained by Lebesgue in 1907. In 1915, Tietze published his famous extension theorem generalising Lebesgue's result from the plane to general metric spaces. He constructed the extension by an…

In this paper we consider a class of conjugate equations, which generalizes de Rham's functional equations. We give sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of solutions under two different series of assumptions. We consider…

In 1960, Sierpi\'nski proved that there exist infinitely many odd positive integers $k$ such that $k\cdot 2^n+1$ is composite for all positive integers $n$. In this paper, we prove some generalizations of Sierpi\'nski's theorem with $2^n$…

We provide simplified solutions of Menger's and Hurewicz's problems and conjectures, concerning generalizations of sigma-compactness. The reader who is new to this field will find a self-contained treatment in Sections 1, 2, and 5. Sections…
