On the asymptotic stability of equilibrium

The classical criterion of asymptotic stability of the zero solution of equations x^′=f(t,x) is that there exists a positive definite function V which has infinitesimal upper bound such that is negative definite. In this paper we prove that if is bounded then the condition that is negative definite can be weakened and replaced by that and is negative definite.     

A generalization of the remainder theorem and factor theorem

We propose a generalization of the classical Remainder Theorem for polynomials over commutative coefficient rings that allows calculating the remainder without using the long division method. As a consequence we obtain an extension of the classical Factor Theorem that provides a general divisibility criterion for polynomials. The arguments can be used in basic algebra courses and are suitable for building classroom/homework activities for college and high school students.     

A generalization of the classical sphere theorem

In this paper, we prove a sphere theorem for Riemannian manifolds with partially positive curvature which generalizes the classical sphere theorem.

     

A generalization of Hahn-Banach extension theorem

In this paper, the notion of affinelike set-valued maps is introduced and some properties of these maps are presented. Then a new Hahn-Banach extension theorem with a K-convex set-valued map dominated by an affinelike set-valued map is obtained.

A generalization of the little Picard theorem

We show the little Picard theorem for a map of a quasicompact manifold to a relatively compact domain of Pn whose degeneracy locus of the Kobayashi pseudodistance is contained in some algebraic hypersurface.     

A generalization of the Gauss-Lucas theorem

Given a set of points in the complex plane, an incomplete polynomial is defined as the one which has these points as zeros except one of them. The classical result known as Gauss-Lucas theorem on the location of zeros of polynomials and their derivatives is extended to convex linear combinations of incomplete polynomials. An integral representation of convex linear combinations of incomplete polynomials is also given.     

A generalization of the Erdös-Ko-Rado theorem

In this note, we investigate some properties of local Kneser graphs defined in [János Körner, Concetta Pilotto, Gábor Simonyi, Local chromatic number and sperner capacity, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 95 (1) (2005) 101-117]. In this regard, as a generalization of the Erdös-Ko-Rado theorem, we characterize the maximum independent sets of local Kneser graphs. Next, we provide an upper bound for their chromatic number.     

A generalization of the Fujisawa-Kuh global inversion theorem

We discuss the problem of global invertibility of nonlinear maps defined on the finite dimensional Euclidean space via differential tests. We provide a generalization of the Fujisawa-Kuh global inversion theorem and introduce a generalized ratio condition which detects when the pre-image of a certain class of linear manifolds is non-empty and connected. In particular, we provide conditions that also detect global injectivity.     

A generalization of Turán's theorem

In this paper, we obtain an asymptotic generalization of Turán's theorem. We prove that if all the non‐trivial eigenvalues of a d‐regular graph G on n vertices are sufficiently small, then the largest K_t‐free subgraph of G contains approximately (t ? 2)/(t ? 1)‐fraction of its edges. Turán's theorem corresponds to the case d = n ? 1. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory     

A generalization of Andô's theorem and Parrott's example

Andô's theorem states that any pair of commuting contractions on a Hilbert space can be dilated to a pair of commuting unitaries. Parrott presented an example showing that an analogous result does not hold for a triple of pairwise commuting contractions. We generalize both of these results as follows. Any -tuple of contractions that commute according to a graph without a cycle can be dilated to an -tuple of unitaries that commute according to that graph. Conversely, if the graph contains a cycle, we construct a counterexample.

     

Mizoguchi-Takahashi's fixed point theorem is a real generalization of Nadler's

We give an example which says that Mizoguchi-Takahashi's fixed point theorem for set-valued mappings is a real generalization of Nadler's. We also give a very simple proof of Mizoguchi-Takahashi's theorem.

A generalization of the non-triviality theorem of Serre

We generalize the classical theorem of Serre on the non-triviality of infinitely many homotopy groups of -connected finite CW-complexes to CW-complexes where the cohomology groups either grow too fast or do not grow faster than a certain rate given by connectivity. For example, this result can be applied to iterated suspensions of finite Postnikov systems and certain spaces with finitely generated cohomology ring. In particular, we obtain an independent, short proof of a theorem of R. Levi on the non-triviality of -invariants associated to finite perfect groups. Another application concerns spaces where the cohomology grows like a polynomial algebra on generators in dimension , , for a fixed number . We also consider spectra where we prove a non-triviality result in the case of fast growing cohomology groups.

     

A generalization of Carleman's uniqueness theorem and a discrete Phragmén-Lindelöf theorem

Let be a Borel measure on and be its moments. T. Carleman found sharp conditions on the magnitude of for to be uniquely determined by its moments. We show that the same conditions ensure a stronger property: if are the moments of another measure, with then the measure is supported on the interval This result generalizes both the Carleman theorem and a theorem of J. Mikusi\'{n}ski. We also present an application of this result by establishing a discrete version of a Phragmén-Lindelöf theorem.

     

A generalization of a theorem of Arrow,Barankin and Blackwell to a nonconvex case

The paper presents a generalization of a known density theorem of Arrow, Barankin, and Blackwell for properly efficient points defined as support points of sets with respect to monotonically increasing sublinear functions. This result is shown to hold for nonconvex sets of a partially ordered reflexive Banach space.     

Further generalization of the Dubovicki-Milutin theorem

Combining the results of Walczak (Ref. 1) and Lasiecka (Refs. 2 and 3), we extend the well-known Dubovicki-Milutin theorem in two directions: (i) We allow for treatment of several equality constraints in optimization problems; and (ii) We assume less regularity of optimization problems by requiring the existence of external cones instead of tangent cones. An example of an optimization problem is also considered.     

An infinite-dimensional generalization of the Jung theorem

A complete characterization of the extremal subsets of Hilbert spaces, which is an infinite-dimensional generalization of the classical Jung theorem, is given. The behavior of the set of points near the Chebyshev sphere of such a subset with respect to the Kuratowski and Hausdorff measures of noncompactness is investigated.
