We introduce the properties of a space to be strictly $WFU\left(M\right)$ or strictly $SFU\left(M\right)$, where $\varnothing \ne M\subset {\omega }^{*}$, and we analyze them and other generalizations of $p$-sequentiality ($p\in {\omega }^{*}$) in Function Spaces, such as Kombarov’s weakly and strongly $M$-sequentiality, and Kocinac’s $WFU\left(M\right)$ and $SFU\left(M\right)$-properties. We characterize these in $C_{\pi }\left(X\right)$ in terms of cover-properties in $X$; and we prove that weak $M$-sequentiality is equivalent to $WFU\left(L\right(M\left)\right)$-property, where $L\left(M\right)=\{{}^{\lambda }p:\lambda <{\omega }_1$ and $p\in M\}$, in the class of spaces which are $p$-compact for every $p\in M\subset {\omega }^{*}$; and that $C_{\pi }\left(X\right)$ is a $WFU\left(L\right(M\left)\right)$-space iff $X$ satisfies...

Bi-capacities have been recently introduced as a natural generalization of capacities (or fuzzy measures) when the underlying scale is bipolar. They allow to build more flexible models in decision making, although their complexity is of order $3^n$, instead of $2^n$ for fuzzy measures. In order to reduce the complexity, the paper proposes the notion of $p$-symmetric bi- capacities, in the same spirit as for $p$-symmetric fuzzy measures. The main idea is to partition the set of criteria (or states of nature,...

In a previous paper we explored the notion of coherent fuzzy consequence operator. Since we did not know of any example in the literature of non-coherent fuzzy consequence operator, we also showed several families of such operators. It is well-known that the operator induced by a fuzzy preorder through Zadeh's compositional rule is always a coherent fuzzy consequence operator. It is also known that the relation induced by a fuzzy consequence operator is a fuzzy preorder if such operator is coherent....

We parametrize Cichoń’s diagram and show how cardinals from Cichoń’s diagram yield classes of small sets of reals. For instance, we show that there exist subsets N and M of $w^w\times 2^w$ and continuous functions $e,f:w^w\to w^w$ such that  • N is $G_{\delta }$ and $N_x:x\in w^w$, the collection of all vertical sections of N, is a basis for the ideal of measure zero subsets of $2^w$;  • M is $F_{\sigma }$ and $M_x:x\in w^w$ is a basis for the ideal of meager subsets of $2^w$;  •$\forall x,y{N}_{e\left(x\right)}\subseteq N_y\Rightarrow M_x\subseteq M_{f\left(y\right)}$. From this we derive that for a separable metric space X,  •if for all Borel (resp. $G_{\delta }$) sets $B\subseteq X\times 2^w$ with all...

Prime implicant-implicate generating algorithms for multiple-valued logics (MVL's) are introduced. Techniques from classical logic not requiring large normal forms or truth tables are adapted to certain regular'' multiple-valued logics. This is accomplished by means of signed formulas, a meta-logic for multiple valued logics; the formulas are normalized in a way analogous to negation normal form. The logic of signed formulas is classical in nature. The presented method is based on path dissolution,...

Let m ≥ 2 be an integer. We show that ZF + “Every countable set of m-element sets has an infinite partial choice function” is not strong enough to prove that every countable set of m-element sets has a choice function, answering an open question from . (Actually a slightly stronger result is obtained.) The independence result in the case where m = p is prime is obtained by way of a permutation (Fraenkel-Mostowski) model of ZFA, in which the set of atoms (urelements) has the structure of a vector...

We prove the results stated in the title.

We fix a Boolean subalgebra B of an orthomodular poset P and study the mappings s:P → [0,1] which respect the ordering and the orthocomplementation in P and which are additive on B. We call such functions B-states on P. We first show that every P possesses "enough" two-valued B-states. This improves the main result in [13], where B is the centre of P. Moreover, it allows us to construct a closure-space representation of orthomodular lattices. We do this in the third section. This result may also...

Motivated by an application to the unconditional basic sequence problem appearing in our previous paper, we introduce analogues of the Laver ideal on ℵ₂ living on index sets of the form ${\left[{\aleph }_k\right]}^{\omega }$ and use this to refine the well-known high-dimensional polarized partition relation for ${\aleph }_{\omega }$ of Shelah.
