We work in set-theory without choice ZF. Denoting by AC(N) the countable axiom of choice, we show in ZF+AC(N) that the closed unit ball of a uniformly convex Banach space is compact in the convex topology (an alternative to the weak topology in ZF). We prove that this ball is (closely) convex-compact in the convex topology. Given a set I, a real number p ≥ 1 (resp. p = 0), and some closed subse...

‎It is well known that every (real or complex) normed linear space $L$ is isometrically embeddable into $C(X)$ for some compact Hausdorff space $X$‎. ‎Here $X$ is the closed unit ball of $L^*$ (the set of all continuous scalar-valued linear mappings on $L$) endowed with the weak$^*$ topology‎, ‎which is compact by the Banach--Alaoglu theorem‎. ‎We prove that the compact Hausdorff space $X$ can ...

‎This paper aims at establishing the existence and uniqueness of solutions for a nonstandard variational-hemivariational inequality. The solutions of this inequality are discussed in a subset $K$ of a reflexive Banach space $X$. Firstly, we prove the existence of solutions in the case of bounded closed and convex subsets. Secondly, we also prove the case when $K$ is compact convex subsets. Fina...

If {Xn} is a discrete-time ^-irreducible Markov chain on a measure space (#*, 3?) [4; p. 4], with «-step transition probabilities P"(x, A), it has been shown in [5] that there exists a subset ^R of 3F with the property that, for every Ae^R and 0-almost all x € W, the power series J^P(x, A)z" have the same radius of convergence R. Moreover, there is a countable partition of 2£ all of whose eleme...

Let G be a locally compact group. Then G is known to be amenable if and only if it has Reiter’s property (P1), i.e., there is a net (mα)α of non-negative norm one functions in L(G) such that limα supx∈K ‖Lx−1mα−mα‖ = 0 for each compact subset K ⊂ G (Lx−1mα stands for the left translate of mα by x). We give a formulation of property (P1) that extends naturally to locally compact quantum groups i...

A topological space X is said to be semi-re-connected at a point xGA" provided there exists an open set U containing x such that every Cech re-cycle on a compact subset of U bounds on X. (If X is regular, "a compact subset of" may be omitted.) If X is semi-re-connected at every point, then X is said to be semi-w-connected [l].2 As shown in [l], if a space has a finite 1-dimensional Betti number...

Let $(X,d)$ be a compactmetric space and let $K$ be a nonempty compact subset of $X$. Let $alpha in (0, 1]$ and let ${rm Lip}(X,K,d^ alpha)$ denote the Banach algebra of all  continuous complex-valued functions $f$ on$X$ for which$$p_{(K,d^alpha)}(f)=sup{frac{|f(x)-f(y)|}{d^alpha(x,y)} : x,yin K , xneq y}
