AbstractWe show that certain C*-algebras which have been studied by, among others, Arzumanian, Vershik, Deaconu, and Renault, in connection with a measure-preserving transformation of a measure space or a covering map of a compact space, are special cases of the endomorphism crossed product construction recently introduced by the first named author. As a consequence these algebras are given presentations in terms of generators and relations. These results come as a consequence of a general theorem on faithfulness of representations which are covariant with respect to certain circle actions. For the case of topologically free covering maps we prove a stronger result on faithfulness of representations which needs no covariance. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition for simplicity.

AbstactA necessary and sufficient condition is given for a separable C*-algebra to be *-isomorphic to a maximal full algebra of cross-sections over a base space such that the fibre algebras are primitive throughout a dense subset. The condition is that the relation of inseparability for pairs of points in the primitive ideal space should be an open equivalence relation.

The centre of mass G of a triangle has the property that the rays to the vertices from G sweep out triangles having equal areas. We show that such points, termed equipartitioning points in this paper, need not exist in other polygons. A necessary and sufficient condition for a quadrilateral to have an equipartitioning point is that one of its diagonals bisects the other. The general theorem, namely, necessary and sufficient conditions for equipartitioning points for arbitrary polygons to exist, is also stated and proved. When this happens, they are in general, distinct from the centre of mass. In parallelograms, and only in them, do the two points coincide.

AbstractTwo measures are strongly equivalent if they have the same sets of zero measure and the same sets of infinite measure. Given a group G of strongly non-singular measurable transformations of a non-atomic positive measure space (X, β, p), if G is amenable, then a necessary and sufficient condition for there to be a G-invariant positive measure on (X, β) which is strongly equivalent to p is that p(E) > 0 implies inf p(gE) > 0 and also p(E) < ∞ implies

A transversal for a set-system is a one-to-one choice function. A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a transversal in the case of finite sets was given by P. Hall (see [4, 3]). The corresponding condition for the case when countably many countable sets are given was conjectured by Nash-Williams and later proved by Damerell and Milner [2]. B. Bollobás and N. Varopoulos stated and proved the following measure theoretic counterpart of Hall's theorem: if (X, μ) is an atomless measure space, ℋ = {Hi: i∈I} is a family of measurable sets with finite measure, λi (i∈I) are non-negative real numbers, then we can choose a subset Ti ⊆ Hi with μ(Ti) = λi and μ(Ti ∩ Ti′) = 0 (i ≠ i′) if and only if μ({U Hi: iεJ}) ≥ Σ{λi: iεJ}: for every finite subset J of I. In this note we generalize this result giving a necessary and sufficient condition for the case when I is countable and X is the union of countably many sets of finite measure.

In this paper, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the unconditional fourth moment of the GARCH(p,q) process is given and also an expression for the moment itself. Furthermore, the autocorrelation function of the centered and squared observations of this process is derived. The statistical theory is further illustrated by a few special cases such as the GARCH(2,2) process and the ARCH(q) process.

A sufficient condition is derived for the existence of a strictly stationary solution of the general bilinear time series equations. The condition is shown to reduce to the conditions of Pham and Tran (1981) and Bhaskara Rao et al. (1983) in the special cases which they consider. Under the condition specified, a solution is constructed which is shown to be causal, stationary and ergodic. It is moreover the unique causal solution and the unique stationary solution of the defining equations. In the special case when the defining equations contain no non-linear terms, our condition reduces to the well-known necessary and sufficient condition for existence of a causal stationary solution.

AbstractA necessary and sufficient condition is given for a unital C*-algebra A to admit a discontinuous homomorphism into a Banach algebra which is continuous on its centre. The condition is that A must have a Glimm ideal G such that the C*-algebra A/G admits a discontinuous homomorphism into a Banach algebra.

A simple but useful result in the measure theory for product spaces can be stated as follows:Theorem A. A necessary and sufficient condition that a measurable subset E of X×Y has measure zero is that almost every X-section (or almost every Y-section) has measure zero (see [1, §36]).We will show, in this short note, that a similar result also holds for the exponential of measure spaces. Before proceeding any further, we describe briefly here the exponential construction of a measure space.

We study some reduced free products of C*-algebras with amalgamations. We give sufficient conditions for the positive cone of the K0 group to be the largest possible. We also give sufficient conditions for simplicity and uniqueness of trace. We use the latter result to give a necessary and sufficient condition for simplicity and uniqueness of trace of the reduced C*-algebras of the Baumslag–Solitar groups BS(m, n).
