A Note on the Proof of Cobham’s Theorem

چکیده

The famous theorem of Cobham says that, for multiplicatively independent integers k and l, any subset of N, which is both kand l-recognizable, is recognizable. Many of its proofs are based on so called Hansel’s lemma stating that such a kand l-recognizable set is syndetic. We consider these proofs and point out that some of them are inadequate.

A note on syndeticity, recognizable sets and Cobham's theorem

In this note, we give an alternative proof of the following result. Let p, q ≥ 2 be two multiplicatively independent integers. If an infinite set of integers is both pand q-recognizable, then it is syndetic. Notice that this result is needed in the classical proof of the celebrated Cobham’s theorem. Therefore the aim of this paper is to complete [13] and [1] to obtain an accessible proof of Cob...

A Note on the Descent Property Theorem for the Hybrid Conjugate Gradient Algorithm CCOMB Proposed by Andrei

In [1] (Hybrid Conjugate Gradient Algorithm for Unconstrained Optimization J. Optimization. Theory Appl. 141 (2009) 249 - 264), an efficient hybrid conjugate gradient algorithm, the CCOMB algorithm is proposed for solving unconstrained optimization problems. However, the proof of Theorem 2.1 in [1] is incorrect due to an erroneous inequality which used to indicate the descent property for the s...

A new proof for the Banach-Zarecki theorem: A light on integrability and continuity

To demonstrate more visibly the close relation between thecontinuity and integrability, a new proof for the Banach-Zareckitheorem is presented on the basis of the Radon-Nikodym theoremwhich emphasizes on measure-type properties of the Lebesgueintegral. The Banach-Zarecki theorem says that a real-valuedfunction $F$ is absolutely continuous on a finite closed intervalif and only if it is continuo...
