Free sequences and the tightness of pseudoradial spaces
2019
Let F(X) be the supremum of cardinalities of free sequences in X. We prove that the radial character of every Lindelof Hausdorff almost radial space X and the set-tightness of every Lindelof Hausdorff space are always bounded above by F(X). We then improve a result of Dow, Juhasz, Soukup, Szentmiklossy and Weiss by proving that if X is a Lindelof Hausdorff space, and $$X_\delta $$ denotes the $$G_\delta $$ topology on X then $$t(X_\delta ) \le 2^{t(X)}$$ . Finally, we exploit this to prove that if X is a Lindelof Hausdorff pseudoradial space then $$F(X_\delta ) \le 2^{F(X)}$$ .
Cardinal estimates involving the weak Lindelöf game
2021
AbstractWe show that if X is a first-countable Urysohn space where player II has a winning strategy in the game $$G^{\omega _1}_1({\mathcal {O}}, {\mathcal {O}}_D)$$ G 1 ω 1 ( O , O D ) (the weak Lindelöf game of length $$\omega _1$$ ω 1 ) then X has cardinality at most continuum. This may be considered a partial answer to an old question of Bell, Ginsburg and Woods. It is also the best result of this kind since there are Hausdorff first-countable spaces of arbitrarily large cardinality where player II has a winning strategy even in the weak Lindelöf game of countable length. We also tackle the problem of finding a bound on the cardinality of a first-countable space where player II has a wi…
Complex multiplication, Griffiths-Yukawa couplings, and rigidity for families of hypersurfaces
2003
Let M(d,n) be the moduli stack of hypersurfaces of degree d > n in the complex projective n-space, and let M(d,n;1) be the sub-stack, parameterizing hypersurfaces obtained as a d fold cyclic covering of the projective n-1 space, ramified over a hypersurface of degree d. Iterating this construction, one obtains M(d,n;r). We show that M(d,n;1) is rigid in M(d,n), although the Griffiths-Yukawa coupling degenerates for d<2n. On the other hand, for all d>n the sub-stack M(d,n;2) deforms. We calculate the exact length of the Griffiths-Yukawa coupling over M(d,n;r), and we construct a 4-dimensional family of quintic hypersurfaces, and a dense set of points in the base, where the fibres ha…
Rejoinder on: Natural Induction: An Objective Bayesian Approach
2009
Giron and Moreno. We certainly agree with Professors Giron and Moreno on the interest in sensitivity of any Bayesian result to changes in the prior. That said, we also consider of considerable pragmatic importance to be able to single out a unique, particular prior which may reasonably be proposed as the reference prior for the problem under study, in the sense that the corresponding posterior of the quantity of interest could be routinely used in practice when no useful prior information is available or acceptable. This is precisely what we have tried to do for the twin problems of the rule of succession and the law of natural induction. The discussants consider the limiting binomial versi…
Mathematical Fuzzy Logic in the Emerging Fields of Engineering, Finance, and Computer Sciences
2022
With more than 50 years of literature, fuzzy logic has gradually progressed from an emerging field to a developed research domain, incorporating the sub-domain of mathematical fuzzy logic (MFL) [...]
Test ideals via algebras of 𝑝^{-𝑒}-linear maps
2012
Building on previous work of Schwede, Böckle, and the author, we study test ideals by viewing them as minimal objects in a certain class of modules, called F F -pure modules, over algebras of p − e p^{-e} -linear operators. We develop the basics of a theory of F F -pure modules and show an important structural result, namely that F F -pure modules have finite length. This result is then linked to the existence of test ideals and leads to a simplified and generalized treatment, also allowing us to define test ideals in non-reduced settings. Combining our approach with an observation of Anderson on the contracting property of p − e p^{-e} -linear operators yields an elementary approach to tes…
Ein Axiomensystem f�r partielle affine R�ume
1994
A partial linear space with parallelism is called partial affine space if it is embeddable in an affine space with the same pointset preserving the parallelism. These partial affine spaces will be characterized by a system of three axioms for partial linear spaces with parallelism.
A class of unitals of order q which can be embedded in two different planes of order q2
1987
By deriving the desarguesian plane of order q2 for every prime power q a unital of order q is constructed which can be embedded in both the Hall plane and the dual of the Hall plane of order q2 which are non-isomorphic projective planes. The representation of translation planes in the fourdimensional projective space of J. Andre and F. Buekenhouts construction of unitals in these planes are used. It is shown that the full automorphism groups of these unitals are just the collineation groups inherited from the classical unitals.
Kollineationen und Schliessungssätze für Ebene Faserungen
1979
Every affine central collineation of a translation plane π induces a special collineation of the projective space π spanned by the spreadF belonging to π. Here the relations between these special collineations of π and certain incidence propositions inF are investigated; so new proofs are given for some characterisations of (A,B)-regular spreads included in [7].
Convergence-theoretic mechanisms behind product theorems
2000
Abstract Commutation of the topologizer with products, quotientness of product maps, preservation of some properties by products, topologicity of continuous convergence, continuity of complete lattices are facets of the same quest. A new method of multifilters is used to establish (in terms of core-contour-compactness) sufficient and necessary conditions for these properties in the framework of general convergences. The relativized Antoine reflector plays here an important role. Several classical results (of Whitehead, Michael, Boehme, Cohen, Day and Kelly, Hofmann and Lawson, Schwarz and Weck, Kent and Richardson, and others) are extended or refined.
