An extension of H. Cartan's theorem

Open covers and partition relations

An open cover of a topological space is said to be an -cover if there is for each finite subset of the space a member of the cover which contains the finite set, but the space itself is not a member of the cover. We prove theorems which imply that a set of real numbers has Rothberger's property if, and only if, for each positive integer , for each -cover of , and for each function from the two-element subsets of , there is a subset of such that is constant on , and each element of belongs to infinitely many elements of (Theorem 1). A similar characterization is given of Menger's property for sets of real numbers (Theorem 6).

Maximal estimates for the -dimensional Walsh-Fourier series

The -dimensional dyadic martingale Hardy spaces are introduced and it is proved that the maximal operator of the means of a Walsh-Fourier series is bounded from to and is of weak type , provided that the supremum in the maximal operator is taken over a positive cone. As a consequence we obtain that the means of a function converge a.e. to the function in question. Moreover, we prove that the means are uniformly bounded on whenever . Thus, in case , the means converge to in norm. The same results are proved for the conjugate means, too.
