Indivisibility of Class Numbers and Iwasawa λ-Invariants of Real Quadratic Fields

Let D>0 be the fundamental discriminant of a real quadratic field, and h(D) its class number. In this paper, by refining Ono's idea, we show that for any prime p>3, {0<D<X|h(D)0(mod p)}>> _p (X)/logX.     

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     

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     

Asymptotic Behaviour of λ-Convex Sets in the Hyperbolic Plane

It is known that the limit Area/Length for a sequence of convex sets expanding over the whole hyperbolic plane is less than or equal 1, and exactly 1 when the sets considered are convex with respect to horocycles. We consider geodesics and horocycles as particular cases of curves of constant geodesic curvature with 0 1 and we study the above limit Area/Length as a function of the parameter .     

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:

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.     

(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.     

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.     

Topological existence and stability for stackelberg problems

The aim of this paper is to study, in a topological framework, existence and stability for the solutions to a parametrized Stackelberg problem. To this end, approximate solutions are used, more precisely, -solutions and strict -solutions. The results given are of minimal character and the standard types of constraints are considered, that is, constant constraints, constraints defined by a finite number of inequalities, and more generally constraints defined by an arbitrary multifunction.     

λ-Automorphisms of a Riemannian foliation

We study geometric properties of -automorphisms of a Riemannian foliationF which is not harmonic. This notion was first introduced in [KTT] for the case whereF is harmonic. Transversal Killing, affine, conformal, projective fields are all examples of -automorphisms. We derive several general identities for a -automorphism. In particular, we extend the results on the transversal conformal and Killing fields obtained in [PrY], [NY1,2]. Furthermore, we analyse the geometric meaning of the condition appearing in our results.The present studies were supported (in part) by the Basic Science Research Institute Program, Ministry of Education, 1994, Project No. BSRI-94-1404     

Study of Noetherian Γ-Semirings via Operator Semirings

In this paper we study Noetherian -semirings and obtain Cohens theorem for a special class of -semirings. Weak primary decomposition theorem for a particular type of -semirings is also obtained.Presently Lecturer in Mathematics, University of Burdwan, GOLAPBAG, W.B. INDIA.     

A Characterization of Markov Property for Semigroups with Invariant Measure

The positivity of the carré du champ operator is a direct consequence of the positivity of the associated Markov semigroup. We show in this note that the reciprocal implication holds in invariant measure, under minimal hypotheses of continuity and stability.     

Some Properties of Isologism of Groups and Baer-Invariants

Let be a variety of groups defined by the set of laws V. In this paper we study the concept of -isologism of groups in terms of -extensions and their connections with the Baer-invariant of groups are also discussed.AMS Subject Classification (2000): primary 20F14, 20F19, secondary 20E10     

Topological influence of the presence of fully-λ-bases in locally convex spaces

This article reveals the topological impact of fully--bases in locally convex spaces where carries either the traditional normal topology or the fairly generalized-topology of Ruckle. It has been established that the generalized nuclearity of plays a significant role in influencing the topology of the space. Further, the equivalence of normal topology and the topology arising out of the fully--base ( being equipped with normal topology or-topology) has been investigated.We acknowledge with thanks the suggestions of the referee.     

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     

On the variational convergence of non-coercive quadratic integral functionals and semicontinuity problems

In this paper we give some results about convergence of non coercive quadratic integral functionals by examining the behaviour of coefficients. We apply our results to semicontinuity problems and we illustrate them by some examples.AMS Subject Classification: 40A10, 49J45.     

Some topological properties of ω-covering sets

We prove the following theorems:1. There exists an -covering with the property s ₀.2. Under cov there exists X such that is not an -covering orX \ B is not an -covering].3. Also we characterize the property of being an -covering.     

On Convergence of the Simplicial Branch-and-Bound Algorithm Based on ω-Subdivisions

The problem of minimizing a concave function over a polytope is considered. The simplicial branch-and-bound approach is presented and theoretical studies about the convergence of these algorithms are carried on. In particular, the convergence of the algorithm based on so-called -subdivisions is proved, which had been an open question for a long time.     

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
