Abstract

In this article we continue the investigation of generalized version of Arbault sets, that was initiated in [Das et al., Bul. Sci. Math. 179 (2022), 103157] but look at the picture from the most general point of view where ideals come into play. While Arbault sets can be naturally associated with the Frechet ideal $Fin$, in [Das et al., Bul. Sci. Math. 179 (2022), 103157] it was observed that when $Fin$ is replaced by the natural density ideal $\iI_d$ one can obtain a strictly larger class of trigonometric thin sets containing Arbault sets. From the set theoretic point of view a natural question arises as to whether one can broaden the picture and specify a class of ideals (instead of a single ideal) each of which would have the similar effect on the classical notion. As a natural candidate, we focus on a special class of ideals, namely, non-$snt$ ideals with a specific property ($snt$ stands for ``strongly non translation invariant"). This class happens to be quite large and rich as it properly contains the class of all dense translation invariant ideals ($\varsupsetneq Fin$), ideals generated by simple density functions as also certain non-negative regular summability matrices (but not all) which can be seen from [Das et al., Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 174 (2023), 103289]. We consider the resulting class of $\iI$-Arbault sets and it is observed that for each such ideal, the class of $\iI$-Arbault sets not only properly contains the class of classical Arbault sets but also a large subfamily of $\NN$-sets (also called ``sets of absolute convergence") while being contained in the class of weak Dirichlet sets.

The circle as a topological fractal

We prove that no family of two continuous self-maps witnesses that the circle is a topological fractal, answering a question of Karasová and the present author. Since three maps are known to suffice, this bound is optimal. In contrast, for every $\varepsilon>0$ there are two continuous self-maps of the circle, depending on $\varepsilon$, whose images cover the circle and an integer $N$ such that every composition of $N$ of them has image of diameter less than $\varepsilon$. Thus two maps suffice at any prescribed scale, but no fixed pair works at all scales.

Finite-Point Metrizable Coarsenings: Compatible Gauges, Simplicial Metrics, and Hausdorff Lower Bounds

Let $(X,τ)$ be metrizable and let $F=\{a_1,\ldots,a_k\}\subseteq X$, where $2\le k<\infty$. We represent all metrizable topologies $σ\subseteqτ$ agreeing with $τ$ on $X\setminus F$ by compatible systems of continuous gauges $s_i:X\to[0,1]$ with $s_i^{-1}(0)=\{a_i\}$. The condition $\inf_X\max\{s_i,s_j\}>0$ for $i\ne j$ is equivalent to both Hausdorffness and metrizability of the prescribed gauge topology. A normalized product map into the standard simplex gives an explicit metric; its triangle inequality follows from a simplex slack inequality. This metric is complete whenever the auxiliary bounded compatible metric is complete. For two compatible systems, their coordinatewise minimum describes the intersection topology. It is compatible exactly when the two coarsenings have a common Hausdorff lower bound; in that case the intersection is metrizable and is their meet. Otherwise every common lower topology is non-Hausdorff. A closed-discrete construction produces such an obstructed pair for every noncompact metrizable space and every finite exceptional set with at least two points. Consequently, for these exceptional sets, the family is downward directed, or is a lattice, if and only if $(X,τ)$ is compact, in which case it consists only of $τ$.

Journey into special $T_1$-spaces

In this survey, we review certain types of special $T_{1}$ spaces and their associated fixed-point theorems. Kupka introduced the notion of a feeble topological contraction, which naturally generalizes Lipschitz contractions defined on metric spaces. Specifically, Kupka established a fixed-point theorem for feeble topological contractions possessing a closed graph within the product of arbitrary $T_{0}$ spaces. Furthermore, the $T_{1}$ separation axiom is shown to guaranty the uniqueness of such fixed points. Finally, we discuss peripheral Hausdorff and locally Hausdorff spaces within the context of these fixed-point results.
