On residually ideals and projective dimension one modules

We prove that certain modules are faithful. This enables us to draw consequences about the reduction number and the integral closure of some classes of ideals.

     

Intersection of essential ideals in

The infinite intersection of essential ideals in any ring may not be an essential ideal, this intersection may even be zero. By the topological characterization of the socle by Karamzadeh and Rostami (Proc. Amer. Math.Soc. 93 (1985), 179-184), and the topological characterization of essential ideals in Proposition 2.1, it is easy to see that every intersection of essential ideals of is an essential ideal if and only if the set of isolated points of is dense in . Motivated by this result in , we study the essentiallity of the intersection of essential ideals for topological spaces which may have no isolated points. In particular, some important ideals and , which are the intersection of essential ideals, are studied further and their essentiallity is characterized. Finally a question raised by Karamzadeh and Rostami, namely when the socle of and the ideal of coincide, is answered.

     

Coloring

If and , then define the graph to be the graph whose vertex set is with two vertices being adjacent iff there are distinct such that . For various and and various , typically or , the graph can be properly colored with colors. It is shown that in some cases such a coloring can also have the additional property that if is an isometric embedding, then the restriction of to is a bijection onto .

     

From

Let be a space of finite type. Set as usual, and define the mod support of by for 0.$"> Call sparse if there is no with

Then we show the relation for any finite type space with being sparse.

As a special case, we have and the main theorem of Ravenel, Wilson and Yagita is also generalized in terms of the mod support.

     

Best bounds for the approximate units for certain ideals of

We compute the best bound for the approximate units of the augmentation ideal of the group algebra of a locally compact amenable group . More generally such a calculation is performed for the kernel of the canonical map from onto , being a closed amenable subgroup of . Analogous results involving certain ideals of the Fourier algebra of an amenable group are also discussed.

In the proof, the zeros of the function are redistributed to minimize the large values of .

     

On the regularity of -Borel ideals

In this paper we prove Pardue's conjecture on the regularity of principal -Borel ideals. As a consequence we obtain an upper bound for the regularity of general -Borel ideals.

     

On contractible

We present a very short proof of a well-known result, that for each there exists a contractible -dimensional compactum, non-embeddable into .

     

Embeddings of

We show that there is only one embedding of in at the prime , up to self-maps of . We also describe the effect of the group of self-equivalences of at the prime on this embedding and then show that the Friedlander exceptional isogeny composed with a suitable Adams map is an involution of whose homotopy fixed point set coincide with

     

Estimates of

We extend a result of Ramaré and Rumely, 1996, about the Chebyshev function in arithmetic progressions. We find a map such that and 0)}$">, whereas is a constant. Now we are able to show that, for ,

The algebra

We study a class of endomomorphism algebras of certain -permutation modules over the Hecke algebra of type , whose summands involve both parabolic and quasi-parabolic subgroups, and prove that these algebras are integrally free and quasi-hereditary, and are stable under base change. Some consequences for decomposition numbers are discussed.

     

Linear maps preserving ideals of -algebras

We show that unital self-adjoint linear bijections of matrix algebras, type factors and abelian -algebras preserving maximal left ideals are isomorphisms and we show that a unital continuous linear map of a -algebra that maps the minimal left ideal into itself is the identity map.     

Connecting Lemmas

Like the closing lemma, the connecting lemma is of fundamental importance in dynamical systems. Hayashi recently proved the connecting lemma for stable and unstable manifolds of a hyperbolic invariant set. In this paper, we prove several very general connecting lemmas. We simplify Hayashi's proof and extend the results to more general cases.

     

Lipscomb's space

It is known that Lipscomb's space can be imbedded in Hilbert's space . Let be the imbedded version of endowed with the -induced topology. We show how to construct as the attractor of an iterated function system containing an infinite number of affine transformations of . In this way we answer an open question of J.C. Perry.

     

and applications

We study an analogue of the classical theory of weights in without assuming that the underlying measure is doubling. Then, we obtain weighted norm inequalities for the (centered) Hardy-Littlewood maximal function and corresponding weighted estimates for nonclassical Calderón-Zygmund operators. We also consider commutators of those Calderón- Zygmund operators with bounded mean oscillation functions (), extending the main result from R. Coifman, R. Rochberg, and G. Weiss, Factorization theorems for Hardy spaces in several variables, Ann. of Math. 103 (1976), 611-635. Finally, we study self-improving properties of Poincaré-B.M.O. type inequalities within this context; more precisely, we show that if is a locally integrable function satisfying for all cubes , then it is possible to deduce a higher integrability result for , assuming a certain simple geometric condition on the functional .     

Powers of

We prove that the Cech-Stone remainder of the integers, , maps onto its square if and only if there is a nontrivial map between two of its different powers, finite or infinite. We also prove that every compact space that maps onto its own square maps onto its own countable infinite product.
