AbstractGiven a Bratteli diagram B, we study the set 𝒪B of all possible orderings on B and its subset PB consisting of perfect orderings that produce Bratteli–Vershik topological dynamical systems (Vershik maps). We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the ordering ω to be perfect. On the other hand, a wide class of non-simple Bratteli diagrams that do not admit Vershik maps is explicitly described. In the case of finite rank Bratteli diagrams, we show that the existence of perfect orderings with a prescribed number of extreme paths constrains significantly the values of the entries of the incidence matrices and the structure of the diagram B. Our proofs are based on the new notions of skeletons and associated graphs, defined and studied in the paper. For a Bratteli diagram B of rank k, we endow the set 𝒪B with product measure μ and prove that there is some 1 ≤ j ≤ k such that μ-almost all orderings on B have j maximal and j minimal paths. If j is strictly greater than the number of minimal components that B has, then μ-almost all orderings are imperfect.

AbstractWe study aperiodic substitution dynamical systems arising from non-primitive substitutions. We prove that the Vershik homeomorphism φ of a stationary ordered Bratteli diagram is topologically conjugate to an aperiodic substitution system if and only if no restriction of φ to a minimal component is conjugate to an odometer. We also show that every aperiodic substitution system generated by a substitution with nesting property is conjugate to the Vershik map of a stationary ordered Bratteli diagram. It is proved that every aperiodic substitution system is recognizable. The classes of m-primitive substitutions and derivative substitutions associated with them are studied. We discuss also the notion of expansiveness for Cantor dynamical systems of finite rank.

We study ergodic finite and infinite measures defined on the path space $X_{B}$ of a Bratteli diagram $B$ which are invariant with respect to the tail equivalence relation on $X_{B}$. Our interest is focused on measures supported by vertex and edge subdiagrams of $B$. We give several criteria when a finite invariant measure defined on the path space of a subdiagram of $B$ extends to a finite invariant measure on $B$. Given a finite ergodic measure on a Bratteli diagram $B$ and a subdiagram $B^{\prime }$ of $B$, we find the necessary and sufficient conditions under which the measure of the path space $X_{B^{\prime }}$ of $B^{\prime }$ is positive. For a class of Bratteli diagrams of finite rank, we determine when they have maximal possible number of ergodic invariant measures. The case of diagrams of rank two is completely studied. We also include an example which explicitly illustrates the proven results.

We first study situations where the stable AF algebras defined by two square primitive non-singular incidence matrices with non-negative integer matrix elements are isomorphic, even though no powers of the associated automorphisms of thecorresponding dimension groups are isomorphic. More generally we consider necessary and sufficient conditions for two such matrices to determine isomorphic dimension groups.We give several examples.

SynopsisWe study the existence of left approximate units, left approximate identities and bounded left approximate identities in the algebras (X)of all compact operators on a Banach space X and ℱ(X)− of all operators uniformly approximable by finite rank operators. In the case of bounded left approximate identities, necessary and sufficient conditions on X are obtained. In the other cases, sufficient conditions are obtained, together with an example of non-existence using a space constructed by Szankowski. The possibility of the sufficient conditions being also necessary depends on the question of whether every compact set is contained in the closure of the image of the unit ball under an operator in (X)(or ℱ(X)−). Sufficient conditions on X are obtained for this to be true, but it is conjectured that the answer for general X is negative.

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.

Let F be a local field with ring of integers 0 and prime ideal π0. If V is a vector space over F, a lattice L in F is defined as an 0-module in the vector space V with the property that the elements of L have bounded denominators in the basis for V. If V is, in addition, a quadratic space, the lattice L then has a quadratic structure superimposed on it. Two lattices on V are then said to be isometric if there is an isometry of V that maps one onto the other.In this paper, we consider the following problem: given two elements, v and w, of the lattice L over the regular quadratic space V, find necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an isometry on L that maps v onto w.

AbstractIn this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a homogeneous cone Ω to be symmetric in two ways. One is by using the multiplier matrix of Ω, and the other is in terms of the basic relative invariants of Ω. In the latter approach, we need to show that the real parts of certain meromorphic rational functions obtained by the basic relative invariants are always positive on the tube domains over Ω. This is a generalization of a result of Ishi and Nomura [Math. Z. 259 (2008), 604–674].

It has long been known, after Wiener (e.g. see (11), vol. 1, p. 108, (5), (8), §5·6)) that a measure μ whose Fourier transform vanishes at infinity is continuous, and generally, that μ is continuous if and only if is small ‘on the average’. Baker (1) has pursued this theme and obtained concise necessary and sufficient conditions for the continuity of μ, again expressed in terms of the rate of decrease of . On the other hand, for continuous μ, Rudin (9) points out the difficulty in obtaining criteria based solely on the asymptotic behaviour of by which one may determine whether μ has a singular component. The object of this paper is to show further that any such criteria must be complicated indeed. We shall show that the absolutely continuous measures on T = [0, 2π) whose Fourier transforms are the most well-behaved (namely, those of the form (1/2π)f(x)dx, where f has an absolutely convergent Fourier series) are such that one may modify their transforms on ‘large’ subsets of Z so that they become the transforms of singular continuous measures. Moreover, the singular continuous measures in question may be chosen so that their Fourier transforms do not vanish at infinity.

An AF algebra [Formula: see text] is said to be an AF[Formula: see text] algebra if the Murray–von Neumann order of its projections is a lattice. Many, if not most, of the interesting classes of AF algebras existing in the literature are AF[Formula: see text] algebras. We construct an algorithm which, on input a finite presentation (by generators and relations) of the Elliott semigroup of an AF[Formula: see text] algebra [Formula: see text], generates a Bratteli diagram of [Formula: see text] We generalize this result to the case when [Formula: see text] has an infinite presentation with a decidable word problem, in the sense of the classical theory of recursive group presentations. Applications are given to a large class of AF algebras, including almost all AF algebras whose Bratteli diagram is explicitly described in the literature. The core of our main algorithms is a combinatorial-polyhedral version of the De Concini–Procesi theorem on the elimination of points of indeterminacy in toric varieties.
