Additivity, subadditivity and linearity: Automatic continuity and quantifier weakening

Weakening Additivity in Adjoining Closures

In this paper, we weaken the conditions for the existence of adjoint closure operators, going beyond the standard requirement of additivity/co-additivity. We consider the notion of join-uniform (lower) closure operators, introduced in computer science, in order to model perfect lossless compression in transformations acting on complete lattices. Starting from Janowitz’s characterization of resi...

Banach module valued separating maps and automatic continuity

For two algebras $A$ and $B$, a linear map $T:A longrightarrow B$ is called separating, if $xcdot y=0$ implies $Txcdot Ty=0$ for all $x,yin A$. The general form and the automatic continuity of separating maps between various Banach algebras have been studied extensively. In this paper, we first extend the notion of separating map for module case and then we give a description of a linear se...

Automatic Continuity of Homomorphisms Between Banach algebras and Frechet algebras

Double Derivations, Higher Double Derivations and Automatic Continuity

Let  be a Banach algebra. Let  be linear mappings on . First we demonstrate a theorem concerning the continuity of double derivations; especially that all of -double derivations are continuous on semi-simple Banach algebras, in certain case. Afterwards we define a new vocabulary called “-higher double derivation” and present a relation between this subject and derivations and finally give some ...

Additivity, subadditivity, and the use of visual information: a reply to Massaro (1988).

Previously we (Bruno & Cutting, 1988) explored the perception of spatial relations among objects laid out in a computer-generated environment. In his commentary on our article, Massaro (1988) raised several issues. The most important is from his reanalysis, which indicated that--because of a subadditive trend in the results--additive and multiplicative strategies fit our data in Experiment 1 ab...
