A function whose graph has positive doubling measure
2014
We show that a doubling measure on the plane can give positive measure to the graph of a continuous function. This answers a question by Wang, Wen and Wen. Moreover we show that the doubling constant of the measure can be chosen to be arbitrarily close to the doubling constant of the Lebesgue measure.
Fixed Points in Topological *-Algebras of Unbounded Operators
2001
We discuss some results concerning fixed point equations in the setting of topological *-algebras of unbounded operators. In particular, an existence result is obtained for what we have called {\em weak $\tau$ strict contractions}, and some continuity properties of these maps are discussed. We also discuss possible applications of our procedure to quantum mechanical systems.

Irreducible finitary Lie algebras over fields of positive characteristic
2000
A Lie subalgebra L of [gfr ][lfr ][ ](V) is said to be finitary if it consists of elements of finite rank. We study the situation when L acts irreducibly on the infinite-dimensional vector space V and show: if Char [ ] > 7, then L has a unique minimal ideal I. Moreover I is simple and L/I is solvable.
On the additivity of block designs
2016
We show that symmetric block designs $${\mathcal {D}}=({\mathcal {P}},{\mathcal {B}})$$D=(P,B) can be embedded in a suitable commutative group $${\mathfrak {G}}_{\mathcal {D}}$$GD in such a way that the sum of the elements in each block is zero, whereas the only Steiner triple systems with this property are the point-line designs of $${\mathrm {PG}}(d,2)$$PG(d,2) and $${\mathrm {AG}}(d,3)$$AG(d,3). In both cases, the blocks can be characterized as the only k-subsets of $$\mathcal {P}$$P whose elements sum to zero. It follows that the group of automorphisms of any such design $$\mathcal {D}$$D is the group of automorphisms of $${\mathfrak {G}}_\mathcal {D}$$GD that leave $$\mathcal {P}$$P in…
On ergodic operator means in Banach spaces
2016
We consider a large class of operator means and prove that a number of ergodic theorems, as well as growth estimates known for particular cases, continue to hold in the general context under fairly mild regularity conditions. The methods developed in the paper not only yield a new approach based on a general point of view, but also lead to results that are new, even in the context of the classical Cesaro means.
Approximate fixed points of set-valued mapping in b-metric space
2016
We establish existence results related to approximate fixed point property of special types of set-valued contraction mappings, in the setting of b-metric spaces. As consequences of the main theorem, we give some fixed point results which generalize and extend various fixed point theorems in the existing literature. A simple example illustrates the new theory. Finally, we apply our results to establishing the existence of solution for some differential and integral problems.
Infinite games and chain conditions
2015
We apply the theory of infinite two-person games to two well-known problems in topology: Suslin's Problem and Arhangel'skii's problem on $G_\delta$ covers of compact spaces. More specifically, we prove results of which the following two are special cases: 1) every linearly ordered topological space satisfying the game-theoretic version of the countable chain condition is separable and 2) in every compact space satisfying the game-theoretic version of the weak Lindel\"of property, every cover by $G_\delta$ sets has a continuum-sized subcollection whose union is $G_\delta$-dense.
