Hulls for Various Kinds of α-Completeness in Archimedean Lattice-Ordered Groups

Within Archimedean -groups, and with an infinite cardinal or , we consider X-hulls where X stands for any of the following classes of -groups: -projectable; laterally -complete; boundedly laterally -complete; conditionally -complete; combinations of the preceding, together with divisibility and/or relative uniform completeness. All these hulls exist, and may be obtained by iterated adjunction of the required extra elements, within the essential hull. When the -groups is relatively -complemented one step in the iteration suffices for several crucial properties. We derive from the above a considerable number of equations involving combinations of these hull operators.     

On Some Isomorphism on the Category of b-Spaces

Given a nuclear b-space N, we show that if is a finite or -finite measure space and 1p, then the functors L _loc ^p (,N.) and NL ^p (,.) are isomorphic on the category of b-spaces of L. Waelbroeck.     

Some remarks on the product of two C α-compact subsets

For a cardinal , we say that a subset B of a space X is C -compact in X if for every continuous function is a compact subset of . If B is a C-compact subset of a space X, then (B, X) denotes the degree of C -compactness of B in X. A space X is called -pseudocompact if X is C -compact into itself. For each cardinal , we give an example of an -pseudocompact space X such that X × X is not pseudocompact: this answers a question posed by T. Retta in Some cardinal generalizations of pseudocompactness Czechoslovak Math. J. 43 (1993), 385–390. The boundedness of the product of two bounded subsets is studied in some particular cases. A version of the classical Glicksberg's Theorem on the pseudocompactness of the product of two spaces is given in the context of boundedness. This theorem is applied to several particular cases.     

On the Operator Semirings of a Γ-Semiring

In this paper we introduce the notion of operator semirings of a -semiring to study -semirings. It is shown that the lattices of all left (right) ideals (two-sided ideals) of a -semiring and its right (respectively left) operator semiring are isomorphic. This has many applications to characterize various -semirings.AMS Subject Classification (2000): 16Y60, 16Y99     

On Some Structural Properties of Banach Function Spaces and Boundedness of Certain Integral Operators

In this paper the notions of uniformly upper and uniformly lower -estimates for Banach function spaces are introduced. Further, the pair (X, Y) of Banach function spaces is characterized, where X and Y satisfy uniformly a lower -estimate and uniformly an upper -estimate, respectively. The integral operator from X into Y of the form

Generalizations of Perfect, Semiperfect, and Semiregular Rings

For a ring R and a right R-module M, a submodule N of M is said to be -small in M if, whenever N + X = M with M/X singular, we have X = M. If there exists an epimorphism p: P M such that P is projective and Ker(p) is -small in P, then we say that P is a projective -cover of M. A ring R is called -perfect (resp., -semiperfect, -semiregular) if every R-module (resp., simple R-module, cyclically presented R-module) has a projective -cover. The class of all -perfect (resp., -semiperfect, -semiregular) rings contains properly the class of all right perfect (resp., semiperfect, semiregular) rings. This paper is devoted to various properties and characterizations of -perfect, -semiperfect, and -semiregular rings. We define (R) by (R)/Soc(R_R) = Jac(R/Soc(R_R)) and show, among others, the following results:

On σ-discrete borel mappings via quasi-metrics

Let X and Y be metrizable spaces. We show that, for a mapping f : X Y, there exists a quasi-metric X inducing the topology of X such that f regarded as a mapping from (X, max{, ^–1}) to Y is continuous if and only if f in the original topology of X is a -discrete map of Borel class 1. Further, we prove that, for every -discrete mapping f: X Y of Borel class + 1, there exists a compatible quasi-metric on X such that f : (X, max{, ^–1}) Y is of Borel class . We also investigate a more general situation when the range of the mapping under consideration is not necessarily metrizable. In passing, we obtain some results related to the behaviour of absolutely Borel sets and absolutely analytic spaces with respect to compatible quasi-metrics.     

Metric σ-Frames versus Metric Lindelof Spaces

The adjoint relation between the category RegFrm, of regular -frames, Alex, of Alexandroff spaces, are studied in [9]. Here, we introduce the category MFrm, of metric -frames and give the adjoint relation between this category and the category MLSp, of metric Lindelof spaces, and show that MLSp is dually equivalent to the category of Alexandroff metric -frames.AMS Subject Classification: 06D99-54B30     

(φ,ξ,η,λ)‐Structures of Parabolic Type

We consider (,,,)structures of parabolic type on hypersurfaces of dual spaces and study the rank of the affinor . We consider almost contact metric structures of parabolic type of the first kind on hypersurfaces of 4dimensional dual metric space. We study the properties of these structures and give examples of normal, integrable, and Sasakian parabolic structures.     

Fine Analysis of the Quasi-Orderings on the Power Set

We pursue the fine analysis of the quasi-orderings and on the power set of a quasi-ordering (Q,). We set X Y if every xX is majorized in by some yY, and X Y if every yY is minorized in by some xX. We show that both these quasi-orderings are -wqo if and only if the original quasi-ordering is ( )-wqo. For this holds also restricted to finite subsets, thus providing an example of a finitary operation on quasi-orderings which does not preserve wqo but preserves bqo.     

On Strongly π-Regular Group Rings

Let R be an associative ring with unit. An element x R is said to be left (right) -regular if there exist y R and a positive integer n such that . If x is both left and right -regular, then it is said to be strongly -regular. R is said to be a strongly -regular ring if all its elements are strongly -regular. In this paper we determine some conditions which are necessary or sufficient for a group ring to be strongly -regular.AMS Subject Classification (1991): 16E50, 16U99     

A Note on π-Engel Conditions

In this paper we show that the weakly -Engel conditions are closely related to the existance of normal -complements; while the -Engel conditions are closely related to the -nilpotent groups.AMS Subject Classification (2000): 20D20     

The ε c -Product of a Schwartz b-Space by a Quotient Banach Space and Applications

We define the -product of a -space by a quotient Banach space. We give conditions under which this -product will be monic. Finally, we define the _c -product of a Schwartz b-space by a quotient Banach space and we give some examples of applications.     

Improvement of the Delsarte Bound for τ-Designs When It Is Not the Best Bound Possible

In this paper the problem for improvement of the Delsarte bound for -designs is investigated. Two main results are presented. Firstly, necessary and sufficient conditions for improving the bound are proved. We define test functions with the property that they are negative if and only if the Delsarte bound D(phmmat;, ) can be improved by linear programming. Then we investigate the infinite polynomial metric spaces and give exact intervals, when the Delsarte bound is not the best linear programming bound possible. Secondly, we derive a new bound for the infinite PMS. Analytical forms of the extremal polynomials of degree + 2 for non-antipodal PMS and of degree + 3 for antipodal PMS are given. The new bound is investigated in different asymptotical processes for infinite PMS. When and n grow simultaneously to infinity our bound is better than Delsarte bound.     

Cardinal Invariants of λ-Topologies

We study the basic cardinal-valued invariants of C (X) such as weight, density, network weight, i-weight, and tightness, where C (X) is the space of all continuous real functions on X in the -topology.     

Metric and Complete Metric σ-Frames

A -frame is a lattice in which countable joins exist and binary meets distribute over countable joins. In this paper, the category MFrm, of metric -frames, is introduced, and it is shown to be equivalent to the category MLFrm _u, of metric Lindelöf frames.Finally, it is shown that the complete metric -frames are exactly the cozero parts of complete metric Lindelöf frames.     

On θ-Principal Extension and H-Closedness

A type of extensions called the -extention of topological spaces and their -equivalence and -trace systems are introduced, which ultimately characterize H-closed -extensions of a Hausdorff topological space. Also, the notion of -principal extensions is defined. A typical -principal extension consisting of certain grills on a Hausdorff space is constructed, and finally, some characterizations of H-closedness of a Hausdorff space are obtained.AMS Subject Classification (2000) 54D30 54D99     

Explicit Formulas for Green’s Functions on the Annulus and on the Möbius Strip

Given a fixed point free antianalytic involution k of a domain G in thecomplex plane, bounded by a finite number of analytic curves, k-invariant Greensfunctions are defined on G. The Lindelöfs principle is extended to k-invariantGreens functions. When G is the annulus, k-invariant Greens functions areobtained in the explicit form. Since the factorization of the annulus by the group kgenerated by k produces a Möbius strip, the respective result helped us to obtain explicitforms for Greens functions on the Möbius strip.
