On the Existence of Relative Injective Covers

Let be a hereditary torsion theory for the category -mod of unital left -modules over an associative ring with an identity element. The purpose of this note is to prove that if the associated Gabriel filter consists of finitely presented left ideals, then every module has a -injective cover and if contains a cofinal subset of finitely presented left ideals, then every module has a -torsionfree -injective cover. The methods used working with pure submodules contained in ``large" submodules also allow to unify the proofs of some previously known results.     

A Jackson Type Estimate for Shepard Operators in L p Spaces for p≧ 1

Adjoint Clifford Rings

Let > be a ring and define , which yields a monoid , called the {\it adjoint semigroup\/} or {\it circle semigroup\/} of . This paper continues the authors" investigations into the relationship between a ring and its adjoint semigroup, focusing here on the case where is a Clifford semigroup. Such rings are called {\it adjoint Clifford rings.\/} Structure theory for such rings is developed and examples are given to illustrate and delimit the theory.     

Distribution Modulo 1 of Some Oscillating Sequences. III

For some oscillating functions, such as , we consider the distribution properties modulo 1 (density, uniform distribution) of the sequence , . We obtain positive and negative results covering the case when the factor is replaced by an arbitrary function of at most polynomial growth belonging to any Hardy field. (The latter condition may be viewed as a regularity growth condition on .) Similar results are obtained for the subsequence , taken over the primes      

Algebras between C *(X) and C(X) that are closed under countable composition

Let be the algebra of all real-valued continuous functions on a completely regular space X, and the subalgebra of bounded functions. We show that the space of real maximal ideals of an intermediate algebra between and is a -embedded closed subspace of the product of with a product of copies of the real line. We make use of this embedding to provide a new characterization of the intermediate algebras that are closed under countable composition, and to exhibit an example of an intermediate algebra on that is closed under countable composition but not isomorphic to any .

On the Operation sup for Subcategories of mer

We study properties of the operation , defined for structures corresponding to different subcategories of MER, as merotopies, filter merotopies, contiguities, -contiguities and closures. In particular, we examine commutativity of and the operation according to which a structure induces a structure of another type (as e.g.\ a merotopy induces a closure) and the inverse operations of the former.     

Automatic Completely-Simple Semigroups

The notion of automaticity has been widely studied in groups and some progress has been made in understanding the notion in the wider context of semigroups. The purpose of this paper is to study automatic completely-simple semigroups. We show that, if is a completely-simple semigroup (with and finite), then is automatic if and only if the group is automatic. As a consequence, we deduce that automatic completely-simple semigroups are finitely presented. We also show that automatic completely-simple semigroups are characterized by the fellow traveller property and also that the existence of an automatic structure is independent of the choice of generating set.     

The First-Order Nonholonomic Connections with the Galilean Groups of Local Transformations. II

In the canonical smooth fiber bundles endowed with the metric tensor fields of relevant structure, we consider natural representations of the Galilean groups and construct -invariant generalizations of differentiable connections. In both regular and special cases of the representations of the relevant groups , we found all the affine nonholonomic -, -, and -connections of the first order (see [1]–[3]) possessing the local Lie groups of transformations and also described the respective -invariant planar connections.     

Convex Subgroups of Partially Right-Ordered Groups

We study into the question of whether a partial order can be induced from a partially right-ordered group onto a space of right cosets of w.r.t. some subgroup of . Examples are constructed showing that the condition of being convex for in is insufficient for this. A necessary and sufficient condition (in terms of a subgroup and a positive cone of ) is specified under which an order of can be induced onto . Sufficient conditions are also given. We establish properties of the class of partially right-ordered groups for which is partially ordered for every convex subgroup , and properties of the class of groups such that is partially ordered for every partial right order on and every subgroup that is convex under .     

Application of Upper Hemi-Continuous Operators on Generalized Bi-quasi-variational Inequalities in Locally Convex Topological Vector Spaces

Let and be Hausdorff topological vector spaces over the field , let be a bilinear functional, and let be a non-empty subset of . Given a set-valued map and two set-valued maps , the generalized bi-quasi-variational inequality (GBQVI) problem is to find a point and a point such that and for all and for all or to find a point a point and a point such that and for all . The generalized bi-quasi-variational inequality was introduced first by Shih and Tan [8] in 1989. In this paper we shall obtain some existence theorems of generalized bi-quasi-variational inequalities as application of upper hemi-continuous operators [4] in locally convex topological vector spaces on compact sets.     

Trajectory and Global Attractors of Three-Dimensional Navier--Stokes Systems

We construct the trajectory attractor of a three-dimensional Navier--Stokes system with exciting force . The set consists of a class of solutions to this system which are bounded in , defined on the positive semi-infinite interval of the time axis, and can be extended to the entire time axis so that they still remain bounded-in- solutions of the Navier--Stokes system. In this case any family of bounded-in- solutions of this system comes arbitrary close to the trajectory attractor . We prove that the solutions are continuous in t if they are treated in the space of functions ranging in . The restriction of the trajectory attractor to , , is called the global attractor of the Navier--Stokes system. We prove that the global attractor thus defined possesses properties typical of well-known global attractors of evolution equations. We also prove that as the trajectory attractors and the global attractors of the -order Galerkin approximations of the Navier--Stokes system converge to the trajectory and global attractors and , respectively. Similar problems are studied for the cases of an exciting force of the form depending on time and of an external force rapidly oscillating with respect to the spatial variables or with respect to time .     

Transversal Twistor Spaces of Foliations

The transversal twistor space of a foliation of an even codimension is the bundle of the complex structures of the fibers of the transversalbundle of . On there exists a foliation by covering spaces of the leaves of , and any Bottconnection of produces an ordered pair of transversal almost complex structures of . The existence of a Bott connection which yields a structure ₁ that is projectable to the space of leaves isequivalent to the fact that is a transversallyprojective foliation. A Bott connection which yields a projectablestructure ₂ exists iff isa transversally projective foliation which satisfies a supplementarycohomological condition, and, in this case, ₁is projectable as well. ₂ is never integrable.The essential integrability condition of ₁ isthe flatness of the transversal projective structure of .     

Quasi-Metrizable Spaces Satisfying Certain Completeness Conditions

It is shown that a quasi-metrizable space possesses a -base if and only if it admits a left -complete quasi-metric and that a quasi-metrizable Moore space possesses a -base if and only if it admits a Smyth complete quasi-metric. Furthermore those quasi-metrizable Moore spaces are characterized that admit a right -complete (equivalently, bicomplete) quasi-metric. Finally, it is established that a topological space admits a Smyth complete quasi-uniformity if and only if it is quasi-sober.     

Bernstein-Type Theorems and Uniqueness Theorems

Let be an entire function of finite type with respect to finite order and let be a subset of an open cone in a certain n-dimensional subspace (the smaller , the sparser ). We assume that this cone contains a ray 0} \right\}$$ " align="middle" border="0"> . It is shown that the radial indicator of at any point may be evaluated in terms of function values at points of the discrete subset . Moreover, if tends to zero fast enough as over , then this function vanishes identically. To prove these results, a special approximation technique is developed. In the last part of the paper, it is proved that, under certain conditions on and , which are close to exact conditions, the function bounded on is bounded on the ray.
