Variations of selective separability II: Discrete sets and the influence of convergence and maximality
2012
A space $X$ is called selectively separable(R-separable) if for every sequence of dense subspaces $(D_n : n\in\omega)$ one can pick finite (respectively, one-point) subsets $F_n\subset D_n$ such that $\bigcup_{n\in\omega}F_n$ is dense in $X$. These properties are much stronger than separability, but are equivalent to it in the presence of certain convergence properties. For example, we show that every Hausdorff separable radial space is R-separable and note that neither separable sequential nor separable Whyburn spaces have to be selectively separable. A space is called \emph{d-separable} if it has a dense $\sigma$-discrete subspace. We call a space $X$ D-separable if for every sequence of …
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…
THE TOPOLOGY OF BASIN BOUNDARIES IN A CLASS OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS
1996
We will develop new methods to determine the topology of the basin boundary in a class of three-dimensional dynamical systems. One approach is to approximate the basin boundary by backward integration. Unfortunately, there are dynamical systems where it is hard to approximate the basin boundary by a numerical backward integration algorithm. We will introduce topological methods which will provide new information about the structure of the basin boundary. The topological invariants which we will use can be numerically computed.
On closures of discrete sets
2018
The depth of a topological space $X$ ($g(X)$) is defined as the supremum of the cardinalities of closures of discrete subsets of $X$. Solving a problem of Mart\'inez-Ruiz, Ram\'irez-P\'aramo and Romero-Morales, we prove that the cardinal inequality $|X| \leq g(X)^{L(X) \cdot F(X)}$ holds for every Hausdorff space $X$, where $L(X)$ is the Lindel\"of number of $X$ and $F(X)$ is the supremum of the cardinalities of the free sequences in $X$.
Central polynomials and matrix invariants
1996
LetK be a field, charK=0 andM n (K) the algebra ofn×n matrices overK. If λ=(λ1,…,λ m ) andμ=(μ 1,…,μ m ) are partitions ofn 2 let $$\begin{gathered} F^{\lambda ,\mu } = \sum\limits_{\sigma ,\tau \in S_n 2} {\left( {\operatorname{sgn} \sigma \tau } \right)x_\sigma (1) \cdot \cdot \cdot x_\sigma (\lambda _1 )^{y_\tau } (1)^{ \cdot \cdot \cdot } y_\tau (\mu _1 )^{x\sigma } (\lambda _1 + 1)} \hfill \\ \cdot \cdot \cdot x_\sigma (\lambda _1 + \lambda _2 )^{y_\tau } (\mu _1 ^{ + 1} )^{ \cdot \cdot \cdot y_\tau } (\mu _1 + \mu _2 ) \hfill \\ \cdot \cdot \cdot x_\sigma (\lambda _1 + \cdot \cdot \cdot + \lambda _{\mu - 1} ^{ + 1} ) \hfill \\ \cdot \cdot \cdot x_\sigma (n^2 )^{y_\tau } (\mu _1 ^{ + \…
A note on rank 2 diagonals
2020
<p>We solve two questions regarding spaces with a (G<sub>δ</sub>)-diagonal of rank 2. One is a question of Basile, Bella and Ridderbos about weakly Lindelöf spaces with a G<sub>δ</sub>-diagonal of rank 2 and the other is a question of Arhangel’skii and Bella asking whether every space with a diagonal of rank 2 and cellularity continuum has cardinality at most continuum.</p>
Topological invariants of stable immersions of oriented 3-manifolds in R4
2012
Abstract We show that the Z -module of first order local Vassiliev type invariants of stable immersions of oriented 3-manifolds into R 4 is generated by 3 topological invariants: The number of pairs of quadruple points and the positive and negative linking invariants l + and l − introduced by V. Goryunov (1997) [7] . We obtain the expression for the Euler characteristic of the immersed 3-manifold in terms of these invariants. We also prove that the total number of connected components of the triple points curve is a non-local Vassiliev type invariant.
Defining relations of minimal degree of the trace algebra of 3×3 matrices
2008
Abstract The trace algebra C n d over a field of characteristic 0 is generated by all traces of products of d generic n × n matrices, n , d ⩾ 2 . Minimal sets of generators of C n d are known for n = 2 and n = 3 for any d as well as for n = 4 and n = 5 and d = 2 . The defining relations between the generators are found for n = 2 and any d and for n = 3 , d = 2 only. Starting with the generating set of C 3 d given by Abeasis and Pittaluga in 1989, we have shown that the minimal degree of the set of defining relations of C 3 d is equal to 7 for any d ⩾ 3 . We have determined all relations of minimal degree. For d = 3 we have also found the defining relations of degree 8. The proofs are based …
Linear invariants of Riemannian almost product manifolds
1982
Using the decomposition of a certain vector space under the action of the structure group of Riemannian almost product manifolds, A. M. Naveira (9) has found thirty-six distinguished classes of these manifolds. In this article, we prove that this decomposition is irreducible by computing a basis of the space of invariant quadratic forms on such a space.
The Links-Gould invariants as generalizations of the Alexander polynomial
2016
In this thesis we focus on the connections that exist between two link invariants: first the Alexander-Conway invariant ∆ that was the first polynomial link invariant to be discovered, and one of the most thoroughly studied since alongside with the Jones polynomial, and on the other hand the family of Links-Gould invariants LGn,m that are quantum link invariants derived from super Hopf algebras Uqgl(n|m). We prove a case of the De Wit-Ishii-Links conjecture: in some cases we can recover powers of the Alexander polynomial as evaluations of the Links-Gould invariants. So the LG polynomials are generalizations of the Alexander invariant. Moreover we give evidence that these invariants should s…
