All -cotilting modules are pure-injective

We prove that all -cotilting -modules are pure-injective for any ring and any . To achieve this, we prove that is a covering class whenever is an -module such that is closed under products and pure submodules.

On chaotic -semigroups and infinitely regular hypercyclic vectors

A -semigroup on a Banach space is called hypercyclic if there exists an element such that is dense in . is called chaotic if is hypercyclic and the set of its periodic vectors is dense in as well. We show that a spectral condition introduced by Desch, Schappacher and Webb requiring many eigenvectors of the generator which depend analytically on the eigenvalues not only implies the chaoticity of the semigroup but the chaoticity of every . Furthermore, we show that semigroups whose generators have compact resolvent are never chaotic. In a second part we prove the existence of hypercyclic vectors in for a hypercyclic semigroup , where is its generator.

     

Automatic continuity of -derivations on -algebras

Let be a -algebra acting on a Hilbert space , let be a linear mapping and let be a -derivation. Generalizing the celebrated theorem of Sakai, we prove that if is a continuous -mapping, then is automatically continuous. In addition, we show the converse is true in the sense that if is a continuous --derivation, then there exists a continuous linear mapping such that is a --derivation. The continuity of the so-called - -derivations is also discussed.

     

for commutative rings with identity

Let , , , , be the usual operators on classes of rings: and for isomorphic and homomorphic images of rings and , , respectively for subrings, direct, and subdirect products of rings. If is a class of commutative rings with identity (and in general of any kind of algebraic structures), then the class is known to be the variety generated by the class . Although the class is in general a proper subclass of the class for many familiar varieties . Our goal is to give an example of a class of commutative rings with identity such that . As a consequence we will describe the structure of two partially ordered monoids of operators.

     

Global dominated splittings and the Newhouse phenomenon

We prove that given a compact -dimensional boundaryless manifold , , there exists a residual subset of the space of diffeomorphisms such that given any chain-transitive set of , then either admits a dominated splitting or else is contained in the closure of an infinite number of periodic sinks/sources. This result generalizes the generic dichotomy for homoclinic classes given by Bonatti, Diaz, and Pujals (2003).

It follows from the above result that given a -generic diffeomorphism , then either the nonwandering set may be decomposed into a finite number of pairwise disjoint compact sets each of which admits a dominated splitting, or else exhibits infinitely many periodic sinks/sources (the `` Newhouse phenomenon"). This result answers a question of Bonatti, Diaz, and Pujals and generalizes the generic dichotomy for surface diffeomorphisms given by Mañé (1982).

     

Lightface -indescribable cardinals

-absoluteness for forcing means that for any forcing , . `` inaccessible to reals' means that for any real , . To measure the exact consistency strength of `` -absoluteness for forcing and is inaccessible to reals', we introduce a weak version of a weakly compact cardinal, namely, a (lightface) -indescribable cardinal; has this property exactly if it is inaccessible and .

     

-summand vectors in Banach spaces

The aim of this paper is to study the set of all -summand vectors of a real Banach space . We provide a characterization of -summand vectors in smooth real Banach spaces and a general decomposition theorem which shows that every real Banach space can be decomposed as an -sum of a Hilbert space and a Banach space without nontrivial -summand vectors. As a consequence, we generalize some results and we obtain intrinsic characterizations of real Hilbert spaces.
