The Moduli Space of Real Abelian Varieties with Level Structure

The moduli space of principally polarized Abelian varieties with real structure and with level N = 4m structure (with m1) is shown to coincide with the set of real points of a quasi-projective algebraic variety defined over , and to consist of finitely many copies of the quotient of the space GL(n, )/O(N) (of positive definite symmetric matrices) by the principal congruence subgroup of level N in GL(n, ).

Mach's principle and the reciprocal symmetry of nature

This article develops the postulate that spacetime-charge inversion invariance reflects a fundamental reciprocal symmetry in nature between the two long range forces, from which the derivation of Mach's principle (i.e., the principle that the fundamental parameters of the electromagnetically elementary charged particle are related to those describing the electromagnetically observable universe) follows quite easily. Interpreting this result, it is argued that relativity and quantum mechanics can be made conceptually compatible and mathematically consistent by this reciprocal symmetry if one realizes that relativity isboth a macroscopic, semiclassical theory (i.e., the global half of relativity, described by Eq. (1.1), including special and general relativity) and a microscopic theory (i.e., the local half of relativity, described by Eq. (2.1), including relativistic quantum mechanics and field theory). The reciprocal symmetry of nature, then, promises unique (differential and/or integral) relationships between the coordinate variables of the observers of these tworeciprocally related theories, which implies unique, consistent numerical values for the scalar curvatureR, the massM, and the critical density for closure, _c, of the observable universe [derived from the elementary particle parameters (i.e., the electron mass and Coulomb radius)]. With this symmetry we also postulate a plausible mechanism for spontaneous generation of matter from the ubiquitous (zero-mass ether) nothingness of the Dirac sea of filled negative energy states, and can consistently interpret both the positive and negative-energy state solutions of Dirac's equation for massive, spin-1/2 (i.e., fermion) particles and both the advanced and retarded potential solutions of electromagnetic field equations. It is pointed out that, with this interpretation of the advanced potential solutions from electromagnetic field theory, one can actuallyderive causality from electromagnetic theory.     

The smallest ideal of βS is not closed

Let S be an infinite discrete semigroup which can be embedded algebraically into a compact topological group and let βS be the Stone–Čech compactification of S. We show that the smallest ideal of βS is not closed.     

On the Cone of Bounded Lower Semicontinuous Functions

We prove that the cone of bounded lower semicontinuous functions defined on a Tychonoff space X is algebraically and structurally isomorphic and isometric to a convex cone contained in the cone of all bounded lower semicontinuous functions defined on the Stone-Cech compactification βX if and only if the space X is normal. We apply this theorem to the study of relationship between a class of multivalued maps and sublinear operators. Using these results, we obtain new proofs of theorems about continuous selections.__________Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, vol. 77, no. 6, 2005, pp. 886–902.Original Russian Text Copyright ©2005 by Yu.

Products of Compactifications

A product operation of compactifications is defined and its different properties are studied. Some applications are considered.     

Compactifications determined by subsets of C1(X)

It is well known that every compactification of a completely regular space X can be generated, via a Tychonoff-type embedding, by some suitably chosen subset of C¹(X). Different subsets may give rise to equivalent compactifications, and we are concerned with the problem of finding all subsets of C¹(X) which yield a given compactification αX. The problem is easier if generalized: we say that a subset F of C¹(X) “determines” the compactification αX if αX is the smallest compactification to which every element of F extends, and give a simple necessary and sufficient condition for F to determine a given compactification αX. A number of sufficient conditions for two sets to determine the same compactification are given, and the relation between sets which determine αX and those which generate αX (via an embedding) is considered. Generally, a much smaller set of functions is required to determine αX than to generate it; the number needed to determine αX is never more than the weight of αX?X, while the number required to generate it is, if infinite, equal to the weight of αX.     

Spaces N ∪ R and their dimensions

About spaces N∪$\text{R}$ (see [2, Exercise 5I]), the following are proved: (1) dim $\text{N∪}\text{R}\text{= dim β(N∪}\text{R}\text{)?N∪}\text{R}\text{,(2)if|β(N∪}\text{R}\text{)?N∪}\text{R}\text{|<2}{}^{\mathrm{?}}{}^{\mathrm{o}}$, then no real-valued continuous fu ction on N∪$\text{R}$ is onto (and hence, dim $\text{N∪}\text{R}\text{=0}$), (3) any compact metric space without isolated points is homeomorphic to some $\text{β(N∪}\text{R}\text{)?N∪}\text{R}$ and (4)there are spaces X,X₁ and X₂ of the form N∪$\text{R}$ such that X=X₁∪X₂,X₂andX₂ are zero sets of X, and dim X=n, dimX₁=dimX₂=0, where n=1,2,… or ∞.     

Topological group criterion for in compact-open-like topologies, II

We continue from “part I” our address of the following situation. For a Tychonoff space Y, the “second epi-topology” σ is a certain topology on C(Y), which has arisen from the theory of categorical epimorphisms in a category of lattice-ordered groups. The topology σ is always Hausdorff, and σ interacts with the point-wise addition + on C(Y) as: inversion is a homeomorphism and + is separately continuous. When is + jointly continuous, i.e. σ is a group topology? This is so if Y is Lindelöf and Čech-complete, and the converse generally fails. We show in the present paper: under the Continuum Hypothesis, for Y separable metrizable, if σ is a group topology, then Y is (Lindelöf and) Čech-complete, i.e. Polish. The proof consists in showing that if Y is not Čech-complete, then there is a family of compact sets in βY which is maximal in a certain sense.
