Probabilistic normed Riesz spaces

In this paper, the concepts of probabilistic normed Riesz space and probabilistic Banach lattice are introduced, and their basic properties are studied. In this context, some continuity and convergence theorems are proved.     

Angles in normed spaces

The concepts of angle, angle functions, and the question how to measure angles present old and well-established mathematical topics referring to the Euclidean space, and there exist also various extensions to non-Euclidean spaces of different types. In particular, it is very interesting to investigate or to combine (geometric) properties of possible concepts of angle functions and angle measures in finite-dimensional real Banach spaces (= Minkowski spaces). However, going into this direction one will observe that there is no monograph or survey reflecting the complete picture of the existing literature on such concepts in a satisfying manner. We try to close this gap. In this expository paper (containing also new results, and new proofs of known results) the reader will get a comprehensive overview of this field, including further related aspects, as well. For example, angular bisectors, their applications, and angle types which preserve certain kinds of orthogonality are discussed. The latter aspect yields, of course, an interesting link to the large variety of orthogonality types in such spaces.     

Continuous operators on asymmetric normed spaces

If (X, p) and (Y, q) are two asymmetric normed spaces, the set LC(X, Y) of all continuous linear mappings from (X, p) to (Y, q) is not necessarily a linear space, it is a cone. If X and Y are two Banach lattices and p and q are, respectively, their associated asymmetric norms (p(x) = ‖⁺‖, q(y) = ‖y ⁺‖), we prove that the positive operators from X to Y are elements of the cone LC(X, Y). We also study the dual space of an asymmetric normed space and finally we give open mapping and closed graph type theorems in the framework of asymmetric normed spaces. The classical results for normed spaces follow as particular cases.

Strict topologies on measure spaces

Let X be a measurable space, let be a family of measurable subsets of it, and let be a subspace of complex measures on X that is also closed under restrictions of measures. In this paper we introduce the ‐convergence topology and the ‐strict topology on . Among other results, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for Hausdorff‐ness and coincide‐ness of these topologies. Applications to Lebesgue spaces, and also examples in Hausdorff topological spaces and locally compact groups are given.     

Grothendieck topologies on Chu spaces

We consider the Grothendieck topologies on low semi-lattices, defined by one family, and the corresponding sheaf cohomology. This is a basis to define and study the left and right cohomologies and the left and right dimensions of the Chu spaces. The construction of Chu spaces allows to characterize a large class of quantities, for example, the dimension of a Noether space or the Krull dimension of a ring, the Lebesgue-type dimensions, as well as to compare them with the cohomology dimensions of the corresponding Chu spaces. We prove existence of spectral sequences of the morphisms of the Chu spaces.     

New sequence spaces in multiple normed spaces

In this work, using lacunary sequences and the notion of ideal convergence we define and examine new sequence spaces with respect to a sequence of modulus functions in n-normed linear spaces. Further, the definition of I_θ-convergence in n-normed linear spaces and some related results are given.

Some topologies on a Šerstnev probabilistic normed space

In this paper we will introduce two other topologies, coarser than the so-called strong topology, on a class of Šerstnev probabilistic normed spaces, and obtain some important properties of these topologies. We will show that under the first topology, denoted by τ₀, our probabilistic normed space is decomposable into the topological direct sum of a normable subspace and the subspace of probably null elements. Under the second topology, which is in fact the inductive limit topology of a family of locally convex topologies, the dual space becomes a locally convex topological vector space.     

Generalized inverses on normed vector spaces

We extend the concepts, introduced by C.R. Rao for Euclidean norms, of minimum g-inverses and least square g-inverses, using arbitrary norms. We give a characterization of such generalized inverses and an application to the case in which the norm is l_∞. As a result of this application we obtain that when $\text{A?}\text{C}{}^{\mathrm{(n+1)\times n}}$ has rank n, there exists a generalized inverse of A, which serves the same purpose as the Moore-Penrose inverse, when the norm is l_∞.     

Star-shaped sets in normed spaces

We prove a generalization of the Krasnosel’ski theorem on star-shaped sets. Usingd-segments inn-dimensional Minkowski spaces instead of usual segments, the notions “d-visibility” and “d-star-shapedness” are introduced. Our main aim is to give necessary and sufficient conditions ford-star-shapedness in finite-dimensional normed spaces.     

Weakly compact operators on non-complete normed spaces

We prove that weakly compact operators on a non-reflexive normed space cannot be bijective. We also show that, in the above result, bijectivity cannot be relaxed to surjectivity. Finally, we study the behaviour of surjective weakly compact operators on a non-reflexive normed space, when they are perturbed by small scalar multiples of the identity, and derive from this study the recent result of Spurný [A note on compact operators on normed linear spaces, Expo. Math. 25 (2007) 261–263] that compact operators on an infinite-dimensional normed space cannot be surjective.     

A characterization of normed spaces

We prove that the metric characterization of real normed spaces obtained by T. Oikhberg and H. Rosenthal can be obtained without a continuity assumption provided that the space is at least two-dimensional. In order to get this improvement we first need to understand the exceptional one-dimensional case.
