Variants on the Berz Sublinearity Theorem
Aequat. Math. 93 (2019), 351–369 c The Author(s) 2018 0001-9054/19/020351-19 published online November 16, 2018 Aequationes Mathematicae https://doi.org/10.1007/s00010-018-0618-8 Variants on the Berz sublinearity theorem N. H. Bingham and A. J. Ostaszewski To Roy O. Davies on his 90th birthday. Abstract. We consider variants on the classical Berz sublinearity theorem, using only DC, the Axiom of Dependent Choices, rather than AC, the Axiom of Choice, which Berz used. We consider thinned versions, in which conditions are imposed on only part of the domain of the function—results of quantifier-weakening type. There are connections with classical results on subadditivity. We close with a discussion of the extensive related literature. Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary 26A03, 39B62. Keywords. Dependent Choices, Homomorphism extension, Subadditivity, Sublinearity, Steinhaus–Weil property, Thinning, Quantifier weakening. 1. Introduction: sublinearity We are concerned here with two questions. The first is to prove, as directly as possible, a linearity result via an appropriate group-homomorphism analogue of the classical Hahn–Banach Extension Theorem HBE [5]—see [18]forasur- vey. Much of the HBE literature most naturally elects as its context real Riesz spaces (ordered linear spaces equipped with semigroup action, see Sect. 4.8), where some naive analogues can fail—see [19]. These do not cover our test- case of the additive reals R, with focus on the fact (e.g. [14]) that for A ⊆ R a dense subgroup, if f : A → R is additive (i.e. a partial homomorphism) and locally bounded (see Theorem R in Sect. -

ON RATIONAL HOMOTOPY OF FOUR-MANIFOLDS S. TERZIC´ Abstract. We give explicit formulas for the ranks of the third and fourth homotopy groups of all oriented closed simply con- nected four-manifolds in terms of their second Betti numbers. We also show that the rational homotopy type of these manifolds is classified by their rank and signature. 1. Introduction In this paper we consider the problem of computation of the rational homotopy groups and the problem of rational homotopy classification of simply connected closed four-manifolds. Our main results could be collected as follows. Theorem 1. Let M be a closed oriented simply connected four-manifold and b2 its second Betti number. Then: (1) If b2 =0 then rk π4(M)=rk π7(M)=1 and πp(M) is finite for p =46 , 7 , (2) If b2 =1 then rk π2(M)=rk π5(M)=1 and πp(M) is finite for p =26 , 5 , (3) If b2 =2 then rk π2(M)=rk π3(M)=2 and πp(M) is finite for p =26 , 3 , (4) If b2 > 2 then dim π∗(M) ⊗ Q = ∞ and b (b + 1) b (b2 − 4) rk π (M)= b , rk π (M)= 2 2 − 1, rk π (M)= 2 2 . 2 2 3 2 4 3 arXiv:math/0309076v1 [math.AT] 4 Sep 2003 When the second Betti number is 3, we can prove a little more. Proposition 2. If b2 =3 then rk π5(M)=10. Regarding rational homotopy type classification of simply connected closed four-manifolds, we obtain the following.

A NOTE ON THE SCHWARZ LEMMA FOR HARMONIC FUNCTIONS MAREK SVETLIK Abstract. In this note we consider some generalizations of the Schwarz lemma for harmonic functions on the unit disk, whereby values of such functions and the norms of their differentials at the point z = 0 are given. 1. Introduction 1.1. A summary of some results. In this paper we consider some generalizations of the Schwarz lemma for harmonic functions from the unit disk U = {z ∈ C : |z| < 1} to the interval (−1, 1) (or to itself). First, we cite a theorem which is known as the Schwarz lemma for harmonic functions and is considered as a classical result. Theorem 1 ([10],[9, p.77]). Let f : U → U be a harmonic function such that f(0) = 0. Then 4 |f(z)| 6 arctan |z|, for all z ∈ U, π and this inequality is sharp for each point z ∈ U. In 1977, H. W. Hethcote [11] improved this result by removing the assumption f(0) = 0 and proved the following theorem. Theorem 2 ([11, Theorem 1] and [26, Theorem 3.6.1]). Let f : U → U be a harmonic function. Then 1 − |z|2 4 f(z) − f(0) 6 arctan |z|, for all z ∈ U. 1+ |z|2 π As it was written in [23], it seems that researchers have had some difficulties to arXiv:1911.03589v1 [math.CV] 9 Nov 2019 handle the case f(0) 6= 0, where f is harmonic mapping from U to itself. Before explaining the essence of these difficulties, it is necessary to recall one mapping and some of its properties. -
Pincherle's Theorem in Reverse Mathematics and Computability Theory
PINCHERLE’S THEOREM IN REVERSE MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTABILITY THEORY DAG NORMANN AND SAM SANDERS Abstract. We study the logical and computational properties of basic theo- rems of uncountable mathematics, in particular Pincherle’s theorem, published in 1882. This theorem states that a locally bounded function is bounded on certain domains, i.e. one of the first ‘local-to-global’ principles. It is well-known that such principles in analysis are intimately connected to (open-cover) com- pactness, but we nonetheless exhibit fundamental differences between com- pactness and Pincherle’s theorem. For instance, the main question of Re- verse Mathematics, namely which set existence axioms are necessary to prove Pincherle’s theorem, does not have an unique or unambiguous answer, in con- trast to compactness. We establish similar differences for the computational properties of compactness and Pincherle’s theorem. We establish the same differences for other local-to-global principles, even going back to Weierstrass. We also greatly sharpen the known computational power of compactness, for the most shared with Pincherle’s theorem however. Finally, countable choice plays an important role in the previous, we therefore study this axiom together with the intimately related Lindel¨of lemma. 1. Introduction 1.1. Compactness by any other name. The importance of compactness cannot be overstated, as it allows one to treat uncountable sets like the unit interval as ‘almost finite’ while also connecting local properties to global ones. A famous example is Heine’s theorem, i.e. the local property of continuity implies the global property of uniform continuity on the unit interval. -
Infinite Product of a Number
International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematical Sciences. ISSN 0972-9828 Volume 10, Number 2 (2017), pp. 107-110 © Research India Publications http://www.ripublication.com Infinite Product of a Number Rushal Sohal Student The Lexicon International School, Wagholi, Pune, India. Abstract It seems that multiplying a positive number infinite times would give something extremely huge (infinity), but is it so? In this paper, we will show that any positive integer (>1) raised to the power infinity (i.e. infinite product of n ∞ ∞ =∏푖=1 푛=푛×푛×푛...= 푛 , 푛 > 1) is not infinity; we will use simple mathematical equations and also use some known sums to prove that the infinite product of a positive integer (>1) is not equal to infinity, ∞i.e. 푛∞ ≠ . Keywords: positive integer(퐼+); infinity*(∞); Riemann zeta function 휁(푠). 1. INTRODUCTION So, what is the infinite product of a positive integer (>1), i.e. what is 푛∞? Is it ∞ or something else? Till now, not much research has been done on this topic, and by convention we assume 푛∞ to be equal to ∞. In this paper, we will make simple equations and also use some known sums and prove that 푛∞ = 0 and that, it is not equal to ∞. We are going to approach the problem by observing patterns, assigning and re- assigning variables, and finally solving the equations. But first, we need to prove that 푛∞ ≠ ∞. 2. METHODS The methods for solving the problem are simple but a bit counter-intuitive. In this paper, we will make simple mathematical equations and firstly prove that 푛∞ ≠ ∞. -

The equivalence with the usual complex representation is 3 demonstrated. A regularized complex representation along the usual Hankel path is derived. 4 Keywords: gamma function; reciprocal gamma function; integral equation 5 MSC: 33B15; 65D20, 30D10 6 1. Introduction 7 Applications of the Gamma function are ubiquitous in fractional calculus and the special function 8 theory. It has numerous interesting properties summarized in [1]. It is indispensable in the theory of 9 Laplace transforms. The history of the Gamma function is surveyed in [2]. In a previous note I have 10 investigated an approach to regularize derivatives at points, where the ordinary limit diverges [5]. 11 This paper exploits the same approach for the purposes of numerical computation of singular integrals, 12 such as the Euler G integrals for negative arguments. The paper also builds on an observations in [4]. 13 The present paper proves a real singular integral representation of the reciprocal G function. The 14 algorithm is implemented in the Computer Algebra System Maxima for reference and demonstration 15 purposes. -

Verbitsky Riemannian manifolds (reminder) DEFINITION: Let h 2 Sym2 T ∗M be a symmetric 2-form on a manifold which satisfies h(x; x) > 0 for any non-zero tangent vector x. Then h is called Riemannian metric, of Riemannian structure, and (M; h) Riemannian manifold. DEFINITION: For any x:y 2 M, and any path γ :[a; b] −!

Rational Homotopy Theory: a Brief Introduction
Contemporary Mathematics Rational Homotopy Theory: A Brief Introduction Kathryn Hess Abstract. These notes contain a brief introduction to rational homotopy theory: its model category foundations, the Sullivan model and interactions with the theory of local commutative rings. Introduction This overview of rational homotopy theory consists of an extended version of lecture notes from a minicourse based primarily on the encyclopedic text [18] of F´elix, Halperin and Thomas. With only three hours to devote to such a broad and rich subject, it was difficult to choose among the numerous possible topics to present. Based on the subjects covered in the first week of this summer school, I decided that the goal of this course should be to establish carefully the founda- tions of rational homotopy theory, then to treat more superficially one of its most important tools, the Sullivan model. Finally, I provided a brief summary of the ex- tremely fruitful interactions between rational homotopy theory and local algebra, in the spirit of the summer school theme “Interactions between Homotopy Theory and Algebra.” I hoped to motivate the students to delve more deeply into the subject themselves, while providing them with a solid enough background to do so with relative ease. As these lecture notes do not constitute a history of rational homotopy theory, I have chosen to refer the reader to [18], instead of to the original papers, for the proofs of almost all of the results cited, at least in Sections 1 and 2. The reader interested in proper attributions will find them in [18] or [24]. The author would like to thank Luchezar Avramov and Srikanth Iyengar, as well as the anonymous referee, for their helpful comments on an earlier version of this article. -

DissertationAdvisor:ProfessorMarkKisin YunqingTang Algebraicity criteria and their applications Abstract We use generalizations of the Borel–Dwork criterion to prove variants of the Grothedieck–Katz p-curvature conjecture and the conjecture of Ogus for some classes of abelian varieties over number fields. The Grothendieck–Katz p-curvature conjecture predicts that an arithmetic differential equation whose reduction modulo p has vanishing p-curvatures for all but finitely many primes p,hasfinite monodromy. It is known that it suffices to prove the conjecture for differential equations on P1 − 0, 1, . We prove a variant of this conjecture for P1 0, 1, , which asserts that if the equation { ∞} −{ ∞} satisfies a certain convergence condition for all p, then its monodromy is trivial. -
MTH 507 Midterm Solutions
MTH 507 Midterm Solutions 1. Let X be a path connected, locally path connected, and semilocally simply connected space. Let H0 and H1 be subgroups of π1(X; x0) (for some x0 2 X) such that H0 ≤ H1. Let pi : XHi ! X (for i = 0; 1) be covering spaces corresponding to the subgroups Hi. Prove that there is a covering space f : XH0 ! XH1 such that p1 ◦ f = p0. Solution. Choose x ; x 2 p−1(x ) so that p :(X ; x ) ! (X; x ) and e0 e1 0 i Hi ei 0 p (X ; x ) = H for i = 0; 1. Since H ≤ H , by the Lifting Criterion, i∗ Hi ei i 0 1 there exists a lift f : XH0 ! XH1 of p0 such that p1 ◦f = p0. It remains to show that f : XH0 ! XH1 is a covering space. Let y 2 XH1 , and let U be a path-connected neighbourhood of x = p1(y) that is evenly covered by both p0 and p1. Let V ⊂ XH1 be −1 −1 the slice of p1 (U) that contains y. Denote the slices of p0 (U) by 0 −1 0 −1 fVz : z 2 p0 (x)g. Let C denote the subcollection fVz : z 2 f (y)g −1 −1 of p0 (U). Every slice Vz is mapped by f into a single slice of p1 (U), −1 0 as these are path-connected. Also, since f(z) 2 p1 (y), f(Vz ) ⊂ V iff f(z) = y. Hence f −1(V ) is the union of the slices in C. 0 −1 0 0 0 Finally, we have that for Vz 2 C,(p1jV ) ◦ (p0jVz ) = fjVz .
