Soft almost disjoint families

An almost disjoint family is said to be soft if there is an infinite set that meets each in a nonempty but finite set. We consider the associated cardinal invariant defined to be the minimal cardinality of an almost disjoint family that is not soft. We show that this cardinal coincides with J. Brendle's cardinal .

     

On the dimension of almost -dimensional spaces

Oversteegen and Tymchatyn proved that homeomorphism groups of positive dimensional Menger compacta are -dimensional by proving that almost -dimensional spaces are at most -dimensional. These homeomorphism groups are almost -dimensional and at least -dimensional by classical results of Brechner and Bestvina. In this note we prove that almost -dimensional spaces for are -dimensional. As a corollary we answer in the affirmative an old question of R. Duda by proving that every hereditarily locally connected, non-degenerate, separable, metric space is -dimensional.

     

Viscosity solutions, almost everywhere solutions and explicit formulas

Consider the differential inclusion in . We exhibit an explicit solution that we call fundamental. It also turns out to be a viscosity solution when properly defining this notion. Finally, we consider a Dirichlet problem associated to the differential inclusion and we give an iterative procedure for finding a solution.

     

Almost Sure Central Limit Theorems for Heavily Trimmed Sums

We obtain an almost sure central limit theorem (ASCLT) for heavily trimmed sums. We also prove a function-typed ASCLT under the same conditions that assure measurable functions to satisfy the ASCLT for the partial sums of i.i.d, random variables with E X1 = 0, EX1^2 = 1.     

On the Theory of X-Ray Diffractional Laue Focusing on Two Bent Crystals

The Laue focusing of a spherical x-ray wave onto dynamical diffraction by a double-bent crystal system is studied. The geometrical equations of two-dimensional Laue focusing and the intensity distribution formula are derived. A high sensitivity of the two-dimensional Laue focusing to the crystal thickness and bending radii difference is revealed. It is shown that this sensitivity can be used to control the crystal thickness with accuracy up to 100 and bending radii up to 10^-2 m. The focusing process of the spherical wave inside crystals as well as in vacuum is investigated. The possibility of using the two-crystal Laue system as a lens for x-ray microscopy is studied. The spectral characteristics of a twice-diffracted wave are discussed. The spectral resolution is demonstrated to be 10⁶.

3-Sasakian manifolds, 3-cosymplectic manifolds and Darboux theorem

We present a compared analysis of some properties of 3-Sasakian and 3-cosymplectic manifolds. We construct a canonical connection on an almost 3-contact metric manifold which generalises the Tanaka–Webster connection of a contact metric manifold and we use this connection to show that a 3-Sasakian manifold does not admit any Darboux-like coordinate system. Moreover, we prove that any 3-cosymplectic manifold is Ricci-flat and admits a Darboux coordinate system if and only if it is flat.
