Parametric decomposition of powers of ideals versus regularity of sequences

Let be an ideal in a Noetherian local ring . Then the sequence is -regular if every is a non-zerodivisor in and if for all integers , where runs over the elements of the set .

     

A brief remark on van der Waerden spaces

We demonstrate that Martin's axiom for -centered notions of forcing implies the existence of a van der Waerden space that is not a Hindman space. Our proof is an adaptation of the one given by M. Kojman and S. Shelah that such a space exists if one assumes the continuum hypothesis to be true.

     

Domains of Holomorphy of Generating Functions of Pólya Frequency Sequences of Finite Order*

A domain is the domain of holomorphy of the generating function of a Pólya frequency sequence of order r if and only if it satisfies the following conditions: (A) G contains the point z = 0, (B) G is symmetric with respect to the real axis, (C) T = dist(0,G)G.     

Weak Uniform Normal Structure and Fixed Points of Asymptotically Regular Semigroups

Let X be a Banach space with a weak uniform normal structure and C a non–empty convexweakly compact subset of X. Under some suitable restriction, we prove that every asymptoticallyregular semigroup T = {T(t) : t ∈¸ S} of selfmappings on C satisfying

${\mathop {\lim \inf }\limits_{S \mathrel\backepsilon t \to \infty } }{\left| {{\left\| {T(t)} \right\|}} \right|} < {\text{WCS}}(X)$

has a common fixed point, where WCS(X) is the weakly convergent sequence coefficient of X, and\({\left| {{\left\| {T(t)} \right\|}} \right|}\) is the exact Lipschitz constant of T(t).     

On the Growth of Entire Functions of Exponential Type near a Straight Line

Let be a sequence of complex numbers such that as . For close to the imaginary axis, upper bounds of the indicator of a nonzero entire function of exponential type with minimal growth vanishing on is obtained. These bounds give sufficient conditions for the system of exponents to be incomplete in an unbounded domain in .     

The Coordinatewise Uniformly Kadec–Klee Property in Some Banach Spaces

We introduce a new property UKK _c for a Banach space and show for an Orlicz sequence space the following: UKK _c H _{c 2}.     

Transfinite sequences of continuous and Baire class 1 functions

The set of continuous or Baire class 1 functions defined on a metric space is endowed with the natural pointwise partial order. We investigate how the possible lengths of well-ordered monotone sequences (with respect to this order) depend on the space .

     

Matrix Transformations of the Maddox Vector-Valued Sequence Spaces

In this paper, we give the matrix characterizations from any normal vector-valued FK-space containing ø(X) into scalar-valued sequence space c(q) and by applying this result, we also obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for infinite matrices mapping the sequence spaces , and F_r(X,p) into the space c(q), where p = (p_k) and q = (q_k) are bounded sequences of positive real numbers and r ≥ 0.AMS Subject Classification (2000): 46A45.     

Computation of Almost Split Sequences with Applications to Relatively Projective and Prinjective Modules

Let be an Artin algebra, let mod be the category of finitely generated -modules, and let Amod be a contravariantly finite and extension closed subcategory. For an indecomposable and not Ext-projective module CA, we compute the almost split sequence 0ABC0 in A from the almost split sequence 0DTrCEC0 in mod. Since the computation is particularly simple if the minimal right A-approximation of DTrC is indecomposable for all indecomposable and not Ext-projective CA, we manufacture subcategories A with the desired property using orthogonal subcategories. The method of orthogonal subcategories is applied to compute almost split sequences for relatively projective and prinjective modules.
