ON A PROBLEM OF TALAGRAND CONCERNING SEPARATELY CONTINUOUS FUNCTIONS

On a Problem Concerning the Weight Functions

Let X be a finite set with n elements. A function f : X −→ R such that ∑ x∈X f (x) ≥ 0 is called a n-weight function. In 1988 Manickam and Singhi conjectured that, if d is a positive integer and f is a n-weight function with n ≥ 4d there exist at least (n−1 d−1 ) subsets Y of X with |Y | = d for which ∑ y∈Y f (y) ≥ 0. In this paper we study this conjecture and we show that it is true if f is a ...

Concerning Rings of Continuous Functions

Lebesgue Measurability of Separately Continuous Functions and Separability

A connection between the separability and the countable chain condition of spaces with L-property (a topological space X has L-property if for every topological space Y , separately continuous function f : X ×Y →R and open set I ⊆R, the set f −1(I) is an Fσ-set) is studied. We show that every completely regular Baire space with the L-property and the countable chain condition is separable and c...

The ring of real-continuous functions on a topoframe

 A topoframe, denoted by $L_{ tau}$,  is a pair $(L, tau)$ consisting of a frame $L$ and a subframe $ tau $ all of whose elements are complementary elements in $L$. In this paper, we define and study the notions of a $tau $-real-continuous function on a frame $L$ and the set of real continuous functions $mathcal{R}L_tau $ as an $f$-ring. We show that $mathcal{R}L_{ tau}$ is actually a generali...

Two examples concerning almost continuous functions

In this note we will construct, under the assumption that union of less than continuum many meager subsets of R is meager in R, an additive connectivity function f : R → R with Cantor intermediate value property which is not almost continuous. This gives a partial answer to a question of D. Banaszewski [2]. (See also [12, Question 5.5].) We will also show that every extendable function g : R → ...
