This paper is closely related to an earlier paper of the author and W. Narkiewicz (cf. [7]) and to some papers concerning ratio sets of positive integers (cf. [4], [5], [12], [13], [14]). The paper contains some new results completing results of the mentioned papers. Among other things a characterization of the Steinhaus property of sets of positive integers is given here by using the concept of ratio sets of positive integers.
This paper is about some geometric properties of the gluing of order k in the category of Sikorski differential spaces, where k is assumed to be an arbitrary natural number. Differential spaces are one of possible generalizations of the concept of an infinitely differentiable manifold. It is known that in many (very important) mathematical models, the manifold structure breaks down. Therefore it is important to introduce a more general concept. In this paper, in particular, the behaviour of kth order tangent spaces, their dimensions, and other geometric properties, are described in the context of the process of gluing differential spaces. At the end some examples are given. The paper is self-consistent, i.e., a short review of the differential spaces theory is presented at the beginning., Krzysztof Drachal., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
We investigate two constructions that, starting with two bivariate copulas, give rise to a new bivariate and trivariate copula, respectively. In particular, these constructions are generalizations of the ∗-product and the ⋆-product for copulas introduced by Darsow, Nguyen and Olsen in 1992. Some properties of these constructions are studied, especially their relationships with ordinal sums and shuffles of Min.
