Compactness of the space of causal curves

چکیده
We prove that the space of causal curves between compact subsets of a separable globally hyperbolic poset is itself compact in the Vietoris topology. Although this result implies the usual result in general relativity, its proof does not require the use of geometry or differentiable structure.

ON COMPACTNESS AND G-COMPLETENESS IN FUZZY METRIC SPACES
In [Fuzzy Sets and Systems 27 (1988) 385-389], M. Grabiec in- troduced a notion of completeness for fuzzy metric spaces (in the sense of Kramosil and Michalek) that successfully used to obtain a fuzzy version of Ba- nachs contraction principle. According to the classical case, one can expect that a compact fuzzy metric space be complete in Grabiecs sense. We show here that this is not the case,...
متن کاملBilateral composition operators on vector-valued Hardy spaces
Let $T$ be a bounded operator on the Banach space $X$ and $ph$ be an analytic self-map of the unit disk $Bbb{D}$. We investigate some operator theoretic properties of bilateral composition operator $C_{ph, T}: f ri T circ f circ ph$ on the vector-valued Hardy space $H^p(X)$ for $1 leq p leq +infty$. Compactness and weak compactness of $C_{ph, T}$ on $H^p(X)$ are characterized an...
متن کاملNew operators through measure of non-compactness
In this article, we use two concepts, measure of non-compactness and Meir-Keeler condensing operators. The measure of non-compactness has been applied for existence of solution nonlinear integral equations, ordinary differential equations and system of differential equations in the case of finite and infinite dimensions by some authors. Also Meir-Keeler condensing operators are shown in some pa...
متن کاملThe Wijsman structure of a quantale-valued metric space
We define and study a quantale-valued Wijsman structure on the hyperspace of all non-empty closed sets of a quantale-valued metric space. We show its admissibility and that the metrical coreflection coincides with the quantale-valued Hausdorff metric and that, for a metric space, the topological coreflection coincides with the classical Wijsman topology. We further define an index of compactnes...
