L'Hospital's Rule (open access)

L'Hospital's Rule

The purpose of this paper is to present proofs for six cases of L'Hospital's Rule for the evaluation of indeterminate forms. It is also a purpose to reduce to one of these six cases some other indeterminate forms to which L'Hospital's Rule is applicable. In the course of presenting these proofs several theorems and definitions will be used without proof.

Convergence Tests for Infinite Series (open access)

Convergence Tests for Infinite Series

The field of infinite series is so large that any investigation into that field must necessarily be limited to a particular phase. An attempt has been made to develop a number of tests having a wide range of applications. Particular emphasis has been placed on tests for series of positive terms.

Uniformly σ-Finite Disintegrations of Measures (open access)

Uniformly σ-Finite Disintegrations of Measures

A disintegration of measure is a common tool used in ergodic theory, probability, and descriptive set theory. The primary interest in this paper is in disintegrating σ-finite measures on standard Borel spaces into families of σ-finite measures. In 1984, Dorothy Maharam asked whether every such disintegration is uniformly σ-finite meaning that there exists a countable collection of Borel sets which simultaneously witnesses that every measure in the disintegration is σ-finite. Assuming Gödel’s axiom of constructability I provide answer Maharam's question by constructing a specific disintegration which is not uniformly σ-finite.

Mycielski-Regular Measures (open access)

Mycielski-Regular Measures

Let μ be a Radon probability measure on M, the d-dimensional Real Euclidean space (where d is a positive integer), and f a measurable function. Let P be the space of sequences whose coordinates are elements in M. Then, for any point x in M, define a function ƒn on M and P that looks at the first n terms of an element of P and evaluates f at the first of those n terms that minimizes the distance to x in M. The measures for which such sequences converge in measure to f for almost every sequence are called Mycielski-regular. We show that the self-similar measure generated by a finite family of contracting similitudes and which up to a constant is the Hausdorff measure in its dimension on an invariant set C is Mycielski-regular.

Strong Choquet Topologies on the Closed Linear Subspaces of Banach Spaces (open access)

Strong Choquet Topologies on the Closed Linear Subspaces of Banach Spaces

In the study of Banach spaces, the development of some key properties require studying topologies on the collection of closed convex subsets of the space. The subcollection of closed linear subspaces is studied under the relative slice topology, as well as a class of topologies similar thereto. It is shown that the collection of closed linear subspaces under the slice topology is homeomorphic to the collection of their respective intersections with the closed unit ball, under the natural mapping. It is further shown that this collection under any topology in the aforementioned class of similar topologies is a strong Choquet space. Finally, a collection of category results are developed since strong Choquet spaces are also Baire spaces.

Some Properties of a Lebesgue-Stieltjes Integral (open access)

Some Properties of a Lebesgue-Stieltjes Integral

It is the purpose of this paper to define a Lebesgue integral over a measurable set, the integration being performed with respect to a monotone non-decreasing function as in the Stieltjes integral, and to develop a few of the fundamental properties of such an integral.

Some Properties of Derivatives (open access)

Some Properties of Derivatives

This paper is concerned with certain properties of derivatives and some characterizations of linear point sets with derivatives. In 1946, Zygmunt Zahorski published a letter on this topic listing a number of theorems without proof, and no proof of these assertions has been published. Some of the theorems presented here are paraphrases of Zahorski's statements, developed in a slightly different order.

On Uniform Convergence (open access)

On Uniform Convergence

In this paper, we will be concerned primarily with series of functions and a particular type of convergence which will be described.

A Development of the Peano Postulates (open access)

A Development of the Peano Postulates

The purpose of this paper is to develop the Peano postulates from a weaker axiom system than the system used by John L. Kelley in General Topology. The axiom of regularity which states "If X is a non-empty set, then there is a member Y of X such that the intersection of X and Y is empty." is not assumed in this thesis. The axiom of amalgamation which states "If X is a set, then the union of the elements of X is a set." is also not assumed. All other axioms used by Kelley relevant to the Peano postulates are assumed. The word class is never used in the thesis, though the variables can be interpreted as classes.
