Every -regular

We prove the following: Theorem A. If is a -regular ultrafilter, then either

(a)

(b)

the cofinality of the linear order is , and is -regular for all .

Corollary B. Suppose that is singular, and either is regular, or . Then every -regular ultrafilter is -regular.

We also discuss some consequences and variations.

     

A note on -bases of rings

Let be a tower of rings of characteristic . Suppose that is a finitely presented -module. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of -bases of over . Next, let be a polynomial ring where is a perfect field of characteristic , and let be a regular noetherian subring of containing such that . Suppose that is a free -module. Then, applying the above result to a tower of rings, we shall show that a polynomial of minimal degree in is a -basis of over .

We prove in this paper that the equation on a -hyperbolic manifold has a solution with -integrable gradient for any bounded measurable function with compact support.

     

Spectral structure and subdecomposability of -hyponormal operators

We prove that for every -hyponormal operator there corresponds a hyponormal operator such that and have ``equal spectral structure". We also prove that every -hyponormal operator is subdecomposable. Then some relevant quasisimilarity results are obtained, including that two quasisimilar -hyponormal operators have equal essential spectra.

     

Lomonosov's theorem cannot be extended to chains of four operators

We show that the celebrated Lomonosov theorem cannot be improved by increasing the number of commuting operators. Specifically, we prove that if is the operator without a non-trivial closed invariant subspace constructed by C. J. Read, then there are three operators , and (non-multiples of the identity) such that commutes with , commutes with , commutes with , and is compact. It is also shown that the commutant of contains only series of .

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.

     

-sequences

A sequence of positive integers is called a -sequence if every integer has at most representations with all in and . A -sequence is also called a -sequence or Sidon sequence. The main result is the following

Theorem. Let be a -sequence and for an integer . Then there is a -sequence of size , where .

Corollary. Let . The interval then contains a -sequence of size , when .
