Lightface -indescribable cardinals

-absoluteness for forcing means that for any forcing , . `` inaccessible to reals' means that for any real , . To measure the exact consistency strength of `` -absoluteness for forcing and is inaccessible to reals', we introduce a weak version of a weakly compact cardinal, namely, a (lightface) -indescribable cardinal; has this property exactly if it is inaccessible and .

Let be a -group with generator , and let be a local -semigroup commuting with . Then the operators , , form a local -semigroup.

Generalizations of Cayley's -process

In this paper we axiomatize some constructions and results due to Cayley and Hilbert. We define the concept of -process for an arbitrary affine algebraic monoid with zero and unit group . In our situation we show how to produce from the process and for a linear rational representation of a number of elements of the ring of -invariants that is large enough to guarantee its finite generation. Moreover, using complete reducibility, we give an explicit construction of all -processes for reductive monoids.

The degree of the bicanonical map of a surface with

In this note it is shown that, given a smooth minimal complex surface of general type with , , for which the bicanonical map is a morphism, the degree of is not 3. This completes our earlier results, showing that if is a minimal surface of general type with , such that is free, then the bicanonical map of can have degree 1, 2 or 4.

     

Stability of -algebras associated to graphs

We characterize stability of graph -algebras by giving five conditions equivalent to their stability. We also show that if is a graph with no sources, then is stable if and only if each vertex in can be reached by an infinite number of vertices. We use this characterization to realize the stabilization of a graph -algebra. Specifically, if is a graph and is the graph formed by adding a head to each vertex of , then is the stabilization of ; that is, .

     

Tensor products of -weakly closed nest algebra submodules

In this paper we prove that for any unital -weakly closed algebra which is -weakly generated by finite-rank operators in , every -weakly closed -submodule has . In the case of nest algebras, if are nests, we obtain the following -fold tensor product formula:

where each is the -weakly closed Alg -submodule determined by an order homomorphism from into itself.

     

Automatic continuity of -derivations on -algebras

Let be a -algebra acting on a Hilbert space , let be a linear mapping and let be a -derivation. Generalizing the celebrated theorem of Sakai, we prove that if is a continuous -mapping, then is automatically continuous. In addition, we show the converse is true in the sense that if is a continuous --derivation, then there exists a continuous linear mapping such that is a --derivation. The continuity of the so-called - -derivations is also discussed.

We consider the three-point loop algebra,

To obtain our presentation of , we use the realization of as the tetrahedron Lie algebra.

     

An obstruction for the mean curvature of a conformal immersion

We prove a Pohozaev type identity for non-linear eigenvalue equations of the Dirac operator on Riemannian spin manifolds with boundary. As an application, we obtain that the mean curvature of a conformal immersion satisfies where is a conformal vector field on and where the integration is carried out with respect to the Euclidean volume measure of the image. This identity is analogous to the Kazdan-Warner obstruction that appears in the problem of prescribing the scalar curvature on inside the standard conformal class.

     

Weak properties of weighted convolution algebras

Suppose that is a weighted convolution algebra on with the weight normalized so that the corresponding space of measures is the dual space of the space of continuous functions. Suppose that is a continuous nonzero homomorphism, where is also a convolution algebra. If is norm dense in , we show that is (relatively) weak dense in , and we identify the norm closure of with the convergence set for a particular semigroup. When is weak continuous it is enough for to be weak dense in . We also give sufficient conditions and characterizations of weak continuity of . In addition, we show that, for all nonzero in , the sequence converges weak to 0. When is regulated, converges to 0 in norm.
