چکیده

Nagata conjectured that everyM -space is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of the product of a countably compact space and a metric space. This conjecture was refuted by Burke and van Douwen, and A. Kato, independently. However, we can show that there is a c.c.c. poset P of size 2 such that in V P Nagata’s conjecture holds for each first countable regular space from the ground model (i.e. if a first countable regular space X ∈ V is an M -space in V P then it is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of the product of a countably compact space and a metric space in V P ). In fact, we show that every first countable regular space from the ground model has a first countable countably compact extension in V P , and then apply some results of Morita. As a corollary, we obtain that every first countable regular space from the ground model has a maximal first countable extension in model V P .

Variations on Nagata’s Conjecture

Here we discuss some variations of Nagata’s conjecture on linear systems of plane curves. The most relevant concerns non-effectivity (hence nefness) of certain rays, which we call good rays, in the Mori cone of the blowup Xn of the plane at n ≥ 10 general points. Nagata’s original result was the existence of a good ray for Xn with n ≥ 16 a square number. Using degenerations, we give examples of...

Shestakov-Umirbaev reductions and Nagata’s conjecture on a polynomial automorphism

In 2003, Shestakov-Umirbaev solved Nagata’s conjecture on an automorphism of a polynomial ring. In the present paper, we reconstruct their theory by using the “generalized Shestakov-Umirbaev inequality”, which was recently given by the author. As a consequence, we obtain a more precise tameness criterion for polynomial automorphisms. In particular, we deduce that no tame automorphism of a polyn...

Brandt extensions and primitive topologically periodic inverse topological semigroups

In this paper we find sufficient conditions on primitive inverse topological semigroup S under which: the inversion inv : (H(S)) (H(S)) is continuous; we show that every topologically periodic countable compact primitive inverse topological semigroups with closed H-classes is topologically isomorphic to an orthogonal sum P i2= Bi (Gi) of topological Brandt extensions Bi (Gi) of countably compac...

On Nagata’s conjecture

T. Szemberg proposed in 2001 a generalization to arbitrary varieties of M. Nagata’s 1959 open conjecture, which claims that the Seshadri constant of r ≥ 9 very general points of the projective plane is maximal. Here we prove that Nagata’s original cojecture implies Szemberg’s for all smooth surfaces X with an ample divisor L generating NS(X) and such that L is a square. More generally, we prove...

On O-minimality of Extensions of R by Restricted Generic Smooth Functions

It is shown that the extension of R by a generic smooth function restricted to the unit cube is o-minimal. The generalization to countably many generic smooth functions is indicated. Possible applications are sketched.
