For a compact Hausdorff space X, let J be the ordered set associated with the set of all finite open covers of X such that there exists nJ, where nJ is the dimension of X associated with ∂. Therefore, we have Hˇp(X;Z), where 0≤p≤n=nJ. For a continuous self-map f on X, let α∈J be an open cover of X and Lf(α)={Lf(U)|U∈α}. Then, there exists an open fiber cover L˙f(α) of Xf induced by Lf(α). In this paper, we define a topological fiber entropy entL(f) as the supremum of ent(f,L˙f(α)) through all finite open covers of Xf={Lf(U);U⊂X}, where Lf(U) is the f-fiber of U, that is the set of images fn(U) and preimages f−n(U) for n∈N. Then, we prove the conjecture logρ≤entL(f) for f being a continuous self-map on a given compact Hausdorff space X, where ρ is the maximum absolute eigenvalue of f*, which is the linear transformation associated with f on the Čech homology group Hˇ*(X;Z)=⨁i=0nHˇi(X;Z).

In this note we answer the following question: Given C(X) the latticeordered ring of real continuous functions on the compact Hausdorff space X and T an averaging operator on C(X), under what circumstances can X be decomposed into a topological product such that supports a measure m and Tf = h where By an averaging operator we mean a linear transformation T on C(X) such that: 1. T is positive, that is, if f>0 (f(x) ≧ 0 for all x ∈ and f(x) > 0 for some a ∈ X), then Tf>0. 2. T(fTg) = (Tf)(Tg). 3. T l = 1 where l(x) = 1 for all x ∈ X.

AbstractGiven a commutative semiring with a compatible preorder satisfying a version of the Archimedean property, the asymptotic spectrum, as introduced by Strassen (J. reine angew. Math. 1988), is an essentially unique compact Hausdorff space together with a map from the semiring to the ring of continuous functions. Strassen’s theorem characterizes an asymptotic relaxation of the preorder that asymptotically compares large powers of the elements up to a subexponential factor as the pointwise partial order of the corresponding functions, realizing the asymptotic spectrum as the space of monotone semiring homomorphisms to the nonnegative real numbers. Such preordered semirings have found applications in complexity theory and information theory. We prove a generalization of this theorem to preordered semirings that satisfy a weaker polynomial growth condition. This weaker hypothesis does not ensure in itself that nonnegative real-valued monotone homomorphisms characterize the (appropriate modification of the) asymptotic preorder. We find a sufficient condition as well as an equivalent condition for this to hold. Under these conditions the asymptotic spectrum is a locally compact Hausdorff space satisfying a similar universal property as in Strassen’s work.

Abstract We investigate topological conditions on a compact Hausdorff space Y, such that any lattice isomorphism φ : C(X, I) → C(Y, I), where X is a compact Hausdorff space and I is the unit interval [0, 1], is continuous. It is shown that in either of cases that the set of G δ points of Y has a dense pseudocompact subset or Y does not contain the Stone-Čech compactification of ℕ, such a lattice isomorphism is a homeomorphism.

Many commutative semisimple Banach algebras B including B = C (X), X compact, and B = L1 (G), G locally compact, have the property that every homomorphism from B into C1[0, 1] is compact. In this paper we consider this property for uniform algebras. Several examples of homomorphisms from somewhat complicated algebras of analytic functions to C1[0, 1] are shown to be compact. This, together with the fact that every homomorphism from the disc algebra and from the algebra H∞ (∆), ∆ = unit disc, to C1[0, 1] is compact, led to the conjecture that perhaps every homomorphism from a uniform algebra into C1[0, 1] is compact. The main result to which we devote the second half of this paper, is to construct a compact Hausdorff space X, a uniformly closed subalgebra [Formula: see text] of C (X), and an arc ϕ: [0, 1] → X such that the transformation T defined by Tf = f ◦ ϕ is a (bounded) homomorphism of [Formula: see text] into C1[0, 1] which is not compact.

Although traditional and idempotent mathematics are "parallel'', by an application of the category theory we show that objects obtained the similar rules over traditional and idempotent mathematics must not be "parallel''. At first we establish for a compact metric space X the spaces P(X) of probability measures and I(X) idempotent probability measures are homeomorphic ("parallelism''). Then we construct an example which shows that the constructions P and I form distinguished functors from each other ("parallelism'' negation). Further for a compact Hausdorff space X we establish that the hereditary normality of I<sub>3</sub>(X)\ X implies the metrizability of X.

Representation theorems for additive functional have been obtained in [2, 4; 6-8; 10-13]. Our aim in this paper is to study the representation of additive operators.Let S be a compact Hausdorff space and let C(S) be the space of real-valued continuous functions defined on S. Let X be an arbitrary Banach space and let T be an additive operator (see § 2) mapping C(S) into X. We will show (see Lemma 3.4) that additive operators may be represented in terms of a family of “measures” {μh} which take their values in X**. If X is weakly sequentially complete, then {μh} can be shown to take their values in X and are vector-valued measures (i.e., countably additive in the norm) (see Lemma 3.7). And, if X* is separable in the weak-* topology, T may be represented in terms of a kernel representation satisfying the Carathéordory conditions (see [9; 11; §4]):

Let A be a Banach algebra and let B be a linear subspace of A. Recall that A has the Dunford Pettis property if whenever ƒn→ 0 weakly in A* and φn → 0 weakly in A* then φn(ƒn) → 0. Bourgain showed that H∞ has the Dunford Pettis property using the theory of ultraproducts. The Dunford Pettis property is related to the notion of Bourgain algebra, denoted Bb, introduced by [6] Cima and Timoney. The algebra Bb is the set of ƒ in A such that if ƒn → 0 weakly in B then dist(ƒƒn, B) —> 0. Bourgain showed [2] that a closed subspace X of C(L)y where L is a compact Hausdorff space, has the Dunford Pettis property if Xb — C(L). Cima and Timoney proved that Bb is a closed subalgebra of A and that if B is an algebra then B⊂Bb. In this paper we study the Bourgain algebra associated with various algebras of functions on the unit circle T.

In the potential theory with respect to a non-symmetric function-kernel, the following theorem is obtained by M. Kishi ([3]).Let X be a locally compact Hausdorff space and G be a lower semi-continuous function-kernel on X. Assume that G(x, x)>0 for any x in X and that G and the adjoint kernel Ğ of G satisfy “the continuity principle”.

Let X be a locally compact Hausdorff topological space. A compactification of X is a compact Hausdorff space which contains X as a dense subspace. Two compactifications αX and γX of X are equivalent if there is a homeomorphism from αX onto γX that fixes X pointwise. We shall identify equivalent compactifications of a given space. If is a family of compactifications of X, we can partially order by saying that αX ≦ γX if there is a continuous map from γX onto αX that fixes X pointwise.
