- PublicationSome properties of o-bounded and strictly o-bounded groups(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Hernández, C.; Robbie, D.; Tkachenko, Mikhail; Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología, México[EN] We continue the study of (strictly) o-bounded topological groups initiated by the first listed author and solve two problems posed earlier. It is shown here that the product of a Comfort-like topological group by a (strictly) o-bounded group is (strictly) o-bounded. Some non-trivial examples of strictly o-bounded free topological groups are given. We also show that o-boundedness is not productive, and strict o-boundedness cannot be characterized by means of second countable continuous homomorphic images.
- PublicationJungck theorem for triangular maps and related results(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Grinc, M.; Snoha, L.; State Committee for Scientific Research, Polonia; Slovak Research and Development Agency[EN] We prove that a continuous triangular map G of the n-dimensional cube In has only fixed points and no other periodic points if and only if G has a common fixed point with every continuous triangular map F that is nontrivially compatible with G. This is an analog of Jungck theorem for maps of a real compact interval. We also discuss possible extensions of Jungck theorem, Jachymski theorem and some related results to more general spaces. In particular, the spaces with the fixed point property and the complete invariance property are considered.
- PublicationPreservation of completeness under mappings in asymmetric topology(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Künzi, Hans-Peter A.; Swiss National Science Foundation[EN] The preservation of various completeness properties in the quasi-metric (and quasi-uniform) setting under open, closed and uniformly open mappings is investigated. In particular, it is noted that between quasi-uniform spaces the property that each costable filter has a cluster point is preserved under uniformly open continuous surjections. Furthermore in the realm of quasi-uniform spaces conditions under which almost uniformly open mappings are uniformly open are given which generalize corresponding classical results for uniform spaces. As a by-product it is shown that a quasi-metrizable Moore space admits a left K-complete quasi-metric if and only if it is a complete Aronszajn space.
- PublicationOn domains witnessing increase in information(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Spreen, Dieter[EN] The paper considers algebraic directed-complete partial orders with a semi-regular Scott topology, called regular domains. As is well know, the category of Scott domains and continuous maps is Cartesian closed. This is no longer true, if the domains are required to be regular. Two Cartesian closed subcategories of the regular Scott domains are exhibited: regular dI-domains with stable maps and strongly regular Scott domains with continuous maps. Here a Scott domains is strongly regular if all of its compact open subsets are regular open. In one considers only embeddings of dependent products and sums. Moreover, they are w-cocomplete and their object classes are closed under several constructions used in programming language semantics. It follows that recursive domains equations can be solved and models of typed and untyped lambda calculi can be constructed. Both kinds of domains can be udes in giving meaning to programming language constructs.
- PublicationExtension properties and the Niemytzki plane(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Ohta, Haruto[EN] The first part of the paper is a brief survey on recent topics concerning the relationship between C*-embedding and C-embedding for closed subsets. The second part studies extension properties of the Niemytzki plane NO. A zero-set, z-; C*-, and P-embedded subsets of NP are determined. Finally, we prove that every C*-embedded subset of NP is a P-embedded zero-set, which answers a problem raised in the first part.
- PublicationMerotopies associated with quasi-uniformities(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Császár, Ákos; Hungarian Scientific Research Fund[EN] To an arbitrary quasi-uniformity on the set X, a merotopy on X is assigned. There are results concerning the question whether this merotopy is compatible with the topology induced by the quasi-uniformity end whether the closure operation induced by the merotopy, admits a compatible uniformity. More precise results are obtained in the case of transitive quasi-uniformities.
- PublicationFuzzy functions: a fuzzy extension of the category SET and some related categories(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Höhle, Ulrich; Porst, Hans-E.; Sostak, Alexander P.[EN] In research Works where fuzzy sets are used, mostly certain usual functions are taken as morphisms. On the other hand, the aim of this paper is to fuzzify the concept of a function itself. Namely, a certain class of L-relations F : X x Y -> L is distinguished which could be considered as fuzzy functions from an L-valued set (X,Ex) to an L-valued set (Y,Ey). We study basic properties of these functions, consider some properties of the corresponding category of L-valued sets and fuzzy functions as well as briefly describe some categories related to algebra and topology with fuzzy functions in the role of morphisms.
- PublicationSeparation axioms in topological preordered spaces and the existence of continuous order-preserving functions(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Bosi, Gianni; Isler, R.[EN] We characterize the existence of a real continuous order-preserving function on a topological preordered space, under the hypotheses that the topological space is normal and the preorder satisfies a strong continuity assumption, called IC-continuity. Under the same continuity assumption concerning the preorder, we present a sufficient condition for the existence of a continuous order-preserving function in case that the topological space is completely regular.
- PublicationUseful topologies and separable systems(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Herden, G.; Pallack, A.[EN] Let X be an arbitrary set. A topology t on X is said to be useful if every continuous linear preorder on X is representable by a continuous real valued order preserving function. Continuous linear preorders on X are induced by certain families of open subsets of X that are called (linear) separable systems on X. Therefore, in a first step useful topologies on X will be characterized by means of (linear) separable systems on X. Then, in a second step particular topologies on X are studied that do not allow the construction of (linear) separable systems on X that correspond to non representable continuous linear preorders. In this way generalizations of the Eilenberg Debreu theorems which state that second countable or separable and connected topologies on X are useful and of the theorem of Estévez and Hervés which states that a metrizable topology on X is useful, if and only if it is second countable can be proved.
- PublicationAn operation on topological spaces(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2000-10-01) Arhangelskii, A.V.[EN] A (binary) product operation on a topological space X is considered. The only restrictions are that some element e of X is a left and a right identity with respect to this multiplication, and that certain natural continuity requirements are satisfied. The operation is called diagonalization (of X). Two problems are considered: 1. When a topological space X admits such an operation, that is, when X is diagonalizable? 2. What are necessary conditions for diagonalizablity of a space (at a given point)? A progress is made in the article on both questions. In particular, it is shown that certain deep results about the topological structure of compact topological groups can be extended to diagonalizable compact spaces. The notion of a Moscow space is instrumental in our study.
- PublicationCommon fixed point theorems for a countable family of fuzzy mappings(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Vidal, Anna; Universitat Politècnica de València; Generalitat Valenciana[EN] In this paper we prove fixed point theorems for countable families of fuzzy mappings satisfying contractive-type conditions and a rational inequality in left K-sequentially complete quasi-pseudo-metric spaces. These results generalize the corresponding ones obtained by others authors.
- PublicationFlows equivalences(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Soler López, Gabriel; Ministerio de Educación y Cultura[EN] Given a differential equation on an open set O of an n-manifold we can associate to it a pseudo-flow, that is, a flow whose trajectories may not be defined in the entire real line. In this paper we prove that this pseudo-flow is always equivalent to a flow with its trajectories defined in all R. This result extends a similar result of Vinograd stated in the n-dimensional Euclidean space.
- PublicationF-points in countably compact spaces(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Bella, Angelo; Malykhin, V.I.; Ministero dell'università e della ricerca scientifica e tecnologica, Italia[EN] Answering a question of A.V. Arhangel'skii, we show that any extremally disconnected subspace of a compact space with countable tightness is discrete.
- PublicationA contribution to the study of fuzzy metric spaces(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Sapena Piera, Almanzor; Dpto. de Matemática Aplicada; Escuela Politécnica Superior de Gandia; Instituto de Investigación para la Gestión Integrada de Zonas Costeras[EN] We give some examples nad properties of fuzzy metric spaces, in the sense of George and Veramani, and characterize the To topological spaces which admit a compatible uniformity that has a countable transitive base, in terms of the fuzzy theory.
- PublicationAttractor of reaction-diffusion equations in Banach spaces(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Valero, José[EN] In this paper we prove first some abstract theorems on existence of global attractors for differential inclusions generated by w-dissipative operators. Then these results are applied to reaction-diffusion equations in which the Babach space Lp is used as phase space. Finally, new results concerning the fractal dimension of the global attractor in the space L2 are obtained.
- PublicationOn topological sequence entropy of circle maps(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Cánovas, José S.; Ministerio de Educación y Cultura[EN] We classify completely continuous circle maps from the point of view of topological sequence entropy. This improves a result of Roman Hric.
- PublicationContinuous representability of complete preorders on the space of upper-continuous capacities(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Bosi, Gianni; Isler, Romano[EN] Given a compact metric space (X, d), and its Borel σ-algebra Σ, we discuss the existence of a (semi)continuous utility function U for a complete preorder ≤ on a subset M’(X) of the space M(X) of all upper-continuous capacities on Σ, endowed with the weak topology.
- PublicationNew results on topological dynamics of antitriangular maps(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Balibrea, Francisco; Cánovas, J.S.; Linero, A.; Ministerio de Educación y Cultura[EN] We present some results concerning the topological dynamics of antitriangular maps, F:X2→ X2 with the formvF(x,y)=(g(y),f(x)), where (X,d) is a compact metric space and f,g : X→ X are continuous maps. We make an special analysis in the case of X = [0,1].
- PublicationWeak completeness of the Bourbaki quasi-uniformity(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Sánchez Granero, M.A.; Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología[EN] The concept of semicompleteness (weaker than half-completeness) is defined for the Bourbaki quasi-uniformity of the hyperspace of a quasi-uniform space. It is proved that the Bourbaki quasi-uniformity is semicomplete in the space of nonempty sets of a quasi-uniform space (X,U) if and only if each stable filter on (X,U*) has a cluster point in (X,U). As a consequence the space of nonempty sets of a quasi-pseudometric space is semicomplete if and only if the space itself is half-complete. It is also given a characterization of semicompleteness of the space of nonempty U*-compact sets of a quasi-uniform space (X,U) which extends the well known Zenor-Morita theorem.
- PublicationFell type topologies of quasi-pseudo-metric spaces and the Kuratowski-Painlevé convergence(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2001-04-01) Rodríguez-López, Jesús[EN] We study the double Fell topology when this hypertopology is constructed over a quasi-pseudo-metric space. In particular, its relationship with the Wijsman hypertopology is studied. We also propose an extension of the Kuratowski-Painlevé convergence in the bitopological setting.
