Semiuniform convergence spaces form a common generalization of lter spaces (including symmetric convergence spaces and thus symmetric topological spaces] as well as Cauchy spaces) and uniform limit spaces (including uniform spaces) with many convenient properties such as cartesian closedness, hereditariness and the fact that products of quotients are quotients. Here, for each semiuniform conver...

Let X be a Banach space with closed unit ball B. Given k ∈ N, X is said to be k-β, repectively, (k + 1)-nearly uniformly convex ((k + 1)-NUC), if for every ε > 0, there exists δ, 0 < δ < 1, so that for every x ∈ B, and every ε-separated sequence (xn) ⊆ B, there are indices (ni) k i=1, respectively, (ni) k+1 i=1 , such that 1 k+1 ‖x + ∑k i=1 xni‖ ≤ 1 − δ, respectively, 1 k+1 ‖ ∑k+1 i=1 xni‖ ≤ 1−...

The first general decomposition theorem for the k-server problem is presented. Whereas all previous theorems are for the case of a finite metric with k + 1 points, the theorem given here allows an arbitrary number of points in the underlying metric space. This theorem implies O(polylog(k))-competitive algorithms for certain metric spaces consisting of a polylogarithmic number of widely separate...

the concept of ${mathscr{f}}_{st}$-fundamentality is introduced in uniform spaces, generated by some filter ${mathscr{f}}$. its equivalence to the concept of ${mathscr{f}}$-convergence in uniform spaces is proved. this convergence generalizes many kinds of convergence, including the well-known statistical convergence.
