A Constructive Proof of the Topological Kruskal Theorem
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a constructive proof of Kruskal’s Tree Theorem— precisely, of a topological extension of it. The proof is in the style of a constructive proof of Higman’s Lemma due to Murthy and Russell (1990), and illuminates the role of regular expressions there. In the process, we discover an extension of Dershowitz’ recursive path ordering to a form of cyclic terms which we call μ-terms. This all came from recent research on Noetherian spaces, and serves as a teaser for their theory.

The Basic Theorem and its Consequences
Let T be a compact Hausdorff topological space and let M denote an n–dimensional subspace of the space C(T ), the space of real–valued continuous functions on T and let the space be equipped with the uniform norm. Zukhovitskii [7] attributes the Basic Theorem to E.Ya.Remez and gives a proof by duality. He also gives a proof due to Shnirel’man, which uses Helly’s Theorem, now the paper obtains a...
متن کاملOn Tychonoff's type theorem via grills
Let ${X_{alpha}:alphainLambda}$ be a collection of topological spaces, and $mathcal {G}_{alpha}$ be a grill on $X_{alpha}$ for each $alphainLambda$. We consider Tychonoffrq{}s type Theorem for $X=prod_{alphainLambda}X_{alpha}$ via the above grills and a natural grill on $X$ related to these grills, and present a simple proof to this theorem. This immediately yields the classical theorem...
متن کاملعدد تناوبی گرافها
In 2015, Alishahi and Hajiabolhassan introduced the altermatic number of graphs as a lower bound for the chromatic number of them. Their proof is based on the Tucker lemma, a combinatorial counterpart of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem, which is a well-known result in topological combinatorics. In this paper, we present a combinatorial proof for the Alishahi-Hajiabolhassan theorem.
متن کاملFREE SEMIGROUPS AND IDEMPOTENTS IN T
The known theory for an oid T shows how to find a subset T of ?T, which is a compact right topological semigroup [I]. The success of the methods in [2] for obtaining properties of-T has prompted us to see how successful they would be in another context. Thus we find (Theorem 4.8) that T cont ains copies of free semigroups on 2? generators, is an immediate consequence of the stronger resu...
