Adjacency in subposets of the lattice of T 1-topologies on a set

Summary We study subposets of the lattice L_₁(X) of all T1-topologies on a set X, namely Σ_t(X), Σ₃(X) and Σ_lc(X), being respectively the collections of all Tychonoff, all T₃ and all locally compact Hausdorff topologies on X, with a view to deciding which elements of these partially ordered sets have and which do not have covers, that is to say immediate successors, in the respective posets. In the final section we discuss the subposet Σ _G of all Hausdorff group topologies on a group G.     

Embedding c<Subscript>0</Subscript> in bvca(Σ, <Emphasis Type="Italic">X</Emphasis>)

If (Ω,Σ) is a measurable space and X a Banach space, we provide sufficient conditions on Σ and X in order to guarantee that bvca(Σ, X) the Banach space of all X-valued countably additive measures of bounded variation equipped with the variation norm, contains a copy of c₀ if and only if X does.

Extremely weakly unconditionally convergent series

It is proved that if Σ _i=1 ^∞ X _i is a non-convergent series in a Banach spaceX such that Σ _i=1 ^∞ |f(X _i )|<∞ for all extreme pointsf of the unit ball ofX*, thenX contains a subspace isomorphic toc ₀, improving a result of Bessaga and Pelczynski. The proof uses Fonf’s result that Lindenstrauss-Phelps spaces contain isomorphs ofc ₀. Supported in part by NSF-MCS-8002393.     

A topological position of the set of continuous maps in the set of upper semicontinuous maps

Let (X, ρ) be a metric space and ↓USCC(X) and ↓CC(X) be the families of the regions below all upper semi-continuous compact-supported maps and below all continuous compact-supported maps from X to I = [0, 1], respectively. With the Hausdorff-metric, they are topological spaces. In this paper, we prove that, if X is an infinite compact metric space with a dense set of isolated points, then (↓USCC(X), ↓CC(X)) ≈ (Q, c0 ∪ (Q \ Σ)), i.e., there is a homeomorphism h :↓USCC(X) → Q such that h(↓CC(X)) = c0 ∪ (Q \ Σ...     

Onp-absolutely summing constants of banach spaces

Given 1≦p<∞ and a real Banach spaceX, we define thep-absolutely summing constantμ _p(X) as inf{Σ _i ^=1/m |x*(x _i)|^p p Σ _i ^=1/m ‖x _i‖^p p]¹ p}, where the supremum ranges over {x*∈X*; ‖x*‖≤1} and the infimum is taken over all sets {x ₁,x ₂, …,x _m} ⊂X such that Σ _i ^=1/m ‖x _i‖>0. It follows immediately from [2] thatμ _p(X)>0 if and only ifX is finite dimensional. In this paper we find the exact values ofμ _p(X) for various spaces, and obtain some asymptotic estimates ofμ _p(X) for general finite dimensional Banach spaces. This is a part of the author’s Ph.D. Thesis prepared at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, under the supervision of Prof. A. Dvoretzky and Prof. J. Lindenstrauss.

Let (X1,X2,…,Xn) and (Y1,Y2,…Yn) be real random vectors with the same marginal distributions,if (X1,X2,…,Xn)≤c(Y1,Y2,…Yn), it is showed in this paper that ∑i=1^n Xi≤cx∑i=1^n Yi and max1≤k≤n∑i=1^k Xi≤icx max1≤k≤n∑i=1^k Yi hold. Based on this fact,a more general comparison theorem is obtained.     

On threefolds covered by lines

A classification theorem is given of projective threefolds that are covered by the lines of a two-dimensional family, but not by a higher dimensional family. Precisely, ifX is such a threefold, let Σ denote the Fano scheme of lines onX and μ the number of lines contained inX and passing through a general point ofX. Assume that Σ is generically reduced. Then μ ≤ 6. Moreover,X is birationally a scroll over a surface (μ = 1), orX is a quadric bundle, orX belongs to a finite list of threefolds of degree at most 6. The smooth varieties of the third type are precisely the Fano threefolds with −K _X = 2H _X . This work has been done in the framework of the activities of EAGER.

Classification of Ideals of Homeomorphism C*-Algebras and Quasidiagonality of Their Quotient Algebras

For the homeomorphism C*-algebra A(Σ) arising from a topological dynamical system Σ=(X,σ) where σ is a homeomorphism on an arbitrary compact Hausdorff space X, we first give detailed classification of its closed ideals into four classes. In case when X is a compact metric space, we then determine the conditions when the quotient algebras of A(Σ) become quasidiagonal. The case of A(Σ) itself was treated by M. Pimsner.     

On the derived category of a regular toric scheme

Let X be a quasi-compact scheme, equipped with an open covering by affine schemes U _σ = Spec A ^σ . A quasi-coherent sheaf on X gives rise, by taking sections over the U _σ , to a diagram of modules over the coordinate rings A ^σ , indexed by the intersection poset Σ of the covering. If X is a regular toric scheme over an arbitrary commutative ring, we prove that the unbounded derived category of quasi-coherent sheaves on X can be obtained from a category of Σ^op-diagrams of chain complexes of modules by inverting maps which induce homology isomorphisms on hyper-derived inverse limits. Moreover, we show that there is a finite set of weak generators, one for each cone in the fan Σ. The approach taken uses the machinery of Bousfield–Hirschhorn colocalisation of model categories. The first step is to characterise colocal objects; these turn out to be homotopy sheaves in the sense that chain complexes over different open sets U _σ agree on intersections up to quasi-isomorphism. In a second step it is shown that the homotopy category of homotopy sheaves is equivalent to the derived category of X.     

On complemented subspaces of (Σl_2 )_{l_p }

It is shown that ifX is a complemented subspace of (Σ (1<p<∞), thenX is isomorphic to eitherl ₂,l _p,l ₂⊗l _p or (Σ . IfX is a complemented subspace ofC _p(1<p<∞) which does not contain an isomorph of (Σ which does not contain an isomorph of thenX is isomorphic to a complemented subspace of (Σ ⊗l ₂.

On Pettis Integrability

Assuming that (Ω, Σ, μ) is a complete probability space and X a Banach space, in this paper we investigate the problem of the X-inheritance of certain copies of c ₀ or l_￥\ell _\infty in the linear space of all [classes of] X-valued μ-weakly measurable Pettis integrable functions equipped with the usual semivariation norm.     

Weakly compact subsets ofL 1(μ,X) andbvca(Σ,X)

On the applicability conditions of the strong law of large numbers for sequences of independent random variables

We investigate relationship between Kolmogorov–s condition and Petrov–s condition in theorems on the strong law of large numbers for a sequence of independent random variables X ₁, X ₂, … with finite variances. The convergence (S _n − ES _n )/n → 0 holds a.s. (here, S _n = Σ _k=1 ⁿ X _k ), provided that Σ _n=1^∞ DX _n /n ² < ∞ (Kolmogorov’s condition) or DS _n = O(n ²/ψ(n)) for some positive non-decreasing function ψ(n) such that Σ1/(nψ(n)) < ∞ (Petrov’s condition). Kolmogorov’s condition is shown to follow from Petrov’s condition. Besides, under some additional restrictions, Petrov’s condition, in turn, follows from Kolmogorov’s condition.     

A new conservation result of WKL0 over RCA0

In this paper we give a partial answer to a conjecture of Tanaka. We prove that: if WKL₀ proves a sentence of the form (∀X)(∃!Y)ψ(X, Y) for a Σ⁰ ₃-formula ψ, then so does RCA₀. Received: 12 April 1999 / Published online: 3 October 2001     

On equalities for BLUEs under misspecified Gauss-Markov models

This paper studies relationships between the best linear unbiased estimators （BLUEs） of an estimable parametric functions Kβunder the Gauss-Markov model {y, Xβ, σ^2]E} and its misspecified model {y, X0β,σ^2∑0}. In addition, relationships between BLUEs under a restricted Gauss Markov model and its misspecified model are also investigated.     

Precise rates in the law of the logarithm for the moment convergence in Hilbert spaces

Let （X, Xn; n ≥1） be a sequence of i.i.d, random variables taking values in a real separable Hilbert space （H, ｜｜·｜｜） with covariance operator ∑. Set Sn = X1 ＋ X2 ＋ ... ＋ Xn, n≥ 1. We prove that, for b 〉 -1,
lim ε→0 ε^2（b＋1） ∞ ∑n=1 （logn）^b/n^3/2 E{｜｜Sn｜｜-σε√nlogn}=σ^-2（b＋1）/（2b＋3）（b＋1） B｜｜Y｜^2b＋3
holds if EX=0,and E｜｜X｜｜^2（log｜｜x｜｜）^3bv（b＋4）〈∞ where Y is a Gaussian random variable taking value in a real separable Hilbert space with mean zero and covariance operator ∑, and σ^2 denotes the largest eigenvalue of ∑.     

An extension of a result of ribe

It is proved that for every 1≦p<∞, 1≦q<∞ and for every sequence {p _n}, 1≦p _n<∞,p _n→p, the spaceX=(Σ⊕l _{p n}) _q (resp.U=(Σ⊕L _{p n}(0, 1)) _q ) is uniformly homeomorphic toX⊕l _p (resp.U⊕L _p(0, 1)). This extends Ribe’s result from the casep=1 to generalp<∞ and thus provides examples of uniformly convex, uniformly homeomorphic Banach spaces which are not Lipschitz equivalent.     

Large deviations for heavy-tailed random sums of independent random variables with dominatedly varying tails

We prove large deviation results on the partial and random sums Sn = ∑i=1n Xi,n≥1; S(t) = ∑i=1N(t) Xi, t≥0, where {N(t);t≥0} are non-negative integer-valued random variables and {Xn;n≥1} are independent non-negative random variables with distribution, Fn, of Xn, independent of {N(t); t≥0}. Special attention is paid to the distribution of dominated variation.     

Entropy and<Emphasis Type="Italic">σ</Emphasis>-algebra equivalence of certain random walks on random sceneries

LetX=X ₀,X ₁,…be a stationary sequence of random variables defining a sequence space Σ with shift mapσ and let (T _t, Ω) be an ergodic flow. Then the endomorphismT _X(x, ω)=(σ(x),T _{x 0}(ω)) is known as a random walk on a random scenery. In [4], Heicklen, Hoffman and Rudolph proved that within the class of random walks on random sceneries whereX is an i.i.d. sequence of Bernoulli-(1/2, 1/2) random variables, the entropy ofT _t is an isomorphism invariant. This paper extends this result to a more general class of random walks, which proves the existence of an uncountable family of smooth maps on a single manifold, no two of which are measurably isomorphic.
