AbstractA well known fact is that every Lebesgue measurable set is regular, i.e., it includes an Fσ set of the same measure. We analyze this fact from a metamathematical or foundational standpoint. We study a family of Muchnik degrees corresponding to measuretheoretic regularity at all levels of the effective Borel hierarchy. We prove some new results concerning Nies's notion of LR-reducibility. We build some ω-models of RCA0 which are relevant for the reverse mathematics of measure-theoretic regularity.

Abstract In the paper some properties of sets of points of approximate continuity and ϱ-upper continuity are presented. We will show that for every Lebesgue measurable set E ⊂ ℝ there exists a function f : ℝ → ℝ which is approximately (ϱ-upper) continuous exactly at points from E. We also study properties of sets of points at which real function has Denjoy property. Some other related topics are discussed.

AbstractA mass problem is a set of Turing oracles. If P and Q are mass problems, we say that P is weakly reducible to Q if every member of Q Turing computes a member of P. We say that P is strongly reducible to Q if every member of Q Turing computes a member of P via a fixed Turing functional. The weak degrees and strong degrees are the equivalence classes of mass problems under weak and strong reducibility, respectively. We focus on the countable distributive lattices ω and s of weak and strong degrees of mass problems given by nonempty subsets of 2ω. Using an abstract Gödel/Rosser incompleteness property, we characterize the subsets of 2ω whose associated mass problems are of top degree in ω and s, respectively Let R be the set of Turing oracles which are random in the sense of Martin-Löf, and let r be the weak degree of R. We show that r is a natural intermediate degree within ω. Namely, we characterize r as the unique largest weak degree of a subset of 2ω of positive measure. Within ω we show that r is meet irreducible, does not join to 1, and is incomparable with all weak degrees of nonempty thin perfect subsets of 2ω. In addition, we present other natural examples of intermediate degrees in ω. We relate these examples to reverse mathematics, computational complexity, and Gentzen-style proof theory.

AbstractThe paper presents a new type of density topology on the real line generated by the pointwise convergence, similarly to the classical density topology which is generated by the convergence in measure. Among other things, this paper demonstrates that the set of pointwise density points of a Lebesgue measurable set does not need to be measurable and the set of pointwise density points of a set having the Baire property does not need to have the Baire property. However, the set of pointwise density points of any Borel set is Lebesgue measurable.

AbstractFor every complex polynomial p(z), closed point sets are defined, called loci of p(z). A closed set Ω ⊆ ${\mathbb C}$* is a locus of p(z) if it contains a zero of any of its apolar polynomials and is the smallest such set with respect to inclusion. Using the notion locus, some classical theorems in the geometry of polynomials can be refined. We show that each locus is a Lebesgue measurable set and investigate its intriguing connections with the higher-order polar derivatives of p.

The p-norm of the Hilbert transform is the same as the p-norm of its truncation to any Lebesgue measurable set with strictly positive measure. This fact follows from two symmetry properties, the joint presence of which is essentially unique to the Hilbert transform. Our result applies, in particular, to the finite Hilbert transform taken over (−1, 1), and to the one-sided Hilbert transform taken over (0, ∞). A related weaker property holds for integral operators with Hardy kernels.

SummaryThis paper investigates the existence and equality of the double and repeated integrals of a real function on a plane set. The main result (Theorem 2) is that if a function on a plane Lebesgue measurable set is continuous in one variable and measurable in the other then it is measurable in the plane.

Consider an open bounded connected set Ω in Rn and a Lebesgue measurable set E ⊂⊂ Ω of positive measure. Let u be a solution of the strictly elliptic equation Di (aij Dj u) = 0 in Ω, where aij ∈ C0, 1 (Ω̄) and {aij} is a symmetric matrix. Assume that |u| ≤ ε in E. We quantify the propagation of smallness of u in Ω.

In a recent paper Mountford [4] showed, using an ingenious probabilistic argument, that if X is a real-valued stable process with index α < 1 and f: [0, ∞) → ℝ is a non-constant continuous function, thenwhere we use the notation |A| for the Lebesgue measure of a Lebesgue measurable set A ⊂ ℝ. The argument in [4] appears to make strong use of the strict scaling properties of X and the ‘intermediate value’ property of f.
