On the Best Ranges for A p + and RH r +

In this paper we study the relationship between one-sided reverse Holder classes and the classes. We find the best possible range of to which an weight belongs, in terms of the constant. Conversely, we also find the best range of to which a weight belongs, in terms of the constant. Similar problems for , and are solved using factorization.     

Light paths with an odd number of vertices in polyhedral maps

Let P _k be a path on k vertices. In an earlier paper we have proved that each polyhedral map G on any compact 2-manifold with Euler characteristic contains a path P _k such that each vertex of this path has, in G, degree . Moreover, this bound is attained for k = 1 or k 2, k even. In this paper we prove that for each odd , this bound is the best possible on infinitely many compact 2-manifolds, but on infinitely many other compact 2-manifolds the upper bound can be lowered to .

On posets with isomorphic interval posets

Let be a partially ordered set, Int the system of all (nonempty) intervals of partially ordered by the set-theoretical inclusion . We are interested in partially ordered sets with Int isomorphic to Int . We are going to show that they correspond to couples of binary relations on A satisfying some conditions. If is a directed partially ordered set, the only with Int isomorphic to Int are corresponding to direct decompositions of ( denotes the dual of . The present results include those presented in the paper [11] by V. Slavík. Systems of intervals, particularly of lattices, have been investigated by many authors, cf. [1]–[11].

Determinants of Matrices Associated with Incidence Functions on Posets

Let S = x ₁,...,x _n} be a finite subset of a partially ordered set P. Let f be an incidence function of P. Let denote the n × n matrix having f evaluated at the meet of x _i and x _j as its i, j-entry and denote the n × n matrix having f evaluated at the join of x _i and x _j as its i, j-entry. The set S is said to be meet-closed if for all 1 i, j n. In this paper we get explicit combinatorial formulas for the determinants of matrices and on any meet-closed set S. We also obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the matrices and on any meet-closed set S to be nonsingular. Finally, we give some number-theoretic applications.

Strong topologies on vector-valued function spaces

Let be a real Banach space and let E be an ideal of L ⁰ over a -finite measure space (, , ). Let (X) be the space of all strongly -measurable functions f: X such that the scalar function , defined by , belongs to E. The paper deals with strong topologies on E(X). In particular, the strong topology the order continuous dual of E(X)) is examined. We generalize earlier results of [PC] and [FPS] concerning the strong topologies.     

On a class of real normed lattices

We say that a real normed lattice is quasi-Baire if the intersection of each sequence of monotonic open dense sets is dense. An example of a Baire-convex space, due to M. Valdivia, which is not quasi-Baire is given. We obtain that E is a quasi-Baire space iff is a pairwise Baire bitopological space, where , is a quasi-uniformity that determines, in L. Nachbin's sense, the topological ordered space E.

Almost periodic compactifications of group extensions

Let and be groups and let be an extension of by . Given a property of group compactifications, one can ask whether there exist compactifications and of N and K such that the universal -compactification of G is canonically isomorphic to an extension of by . We prove a theorem which gives necessary and sufficient conditions for this to occur for general properties and then apply this result to the almost periodic and weakly almost periodic compactifications of G.     

Basic subgroups in abelian group rings

Suppose is a commutative ring with identity of prime characteristic and is an arbitrary abelian -group. In the present paper, a basic subgroup and a lower basic subgroup of the -component and of the factor-group of the unit group in the modular group algebra are established, in the case when is weakly perfect. Moreover, a lower basic subgroup and a basic subgroup of the normed -component and of the quotient group are given when is perfect and is arbitrary whose is -divisible. These results extend and generalize a result due to Nachev (1996) published in Houston J. Math., when the ring is perfect and is -primary. Some other applications in this direction are also obtained for the direct factor problem and for a kind of an arbitrary basic subgroup.

A Canonical Directly Infinite Ring

Let be the set of nonnegative integers and the ring of integers. Let be the ring of N × N matrices over generated by the following two matrices: one obtained from the identity matrix by shifting the ones one position to the right and the other one position down. This ring plays an important role in the study of directly finite rings. Calculation of invertible and idempotent elements of yields that the subrings generated by them coincide. This subring is the sum of the ideal consisting of all matrices in with only a finite number of nonzero entries and the subring of generated by the identity matrix. Regular elements are also described. We characterize all ideals of , show that all ideals are finitely generated and that not all ideals of are principal. Some general ring theoretic properties of are also established.
