We give a new proof of sequential weak* lower semicontinuity in BV(Ω;Rm) for integral functionals of the form F(u) := ∫

In this paper, we introduce the notion of fuzzy (r, s)-S1-pre-semicontinuous mappings on intuitionistic fuzzy topological spaces in Šostak’s sense, which is a generalization of S1-pre-semicontinuous mappings by Shi-Zhong Bai. The relationship between fuzzy (r, s)-pre-semicontinuous mapping and fuzzy (r, s)-S1-pre-semicontinuous mapping is discussed. The characterizations for the fuzzy (r, s)-S1...

We introduce the notion of mIT -structures determined by operators mInt and mCl on an m-space (X,mX). By using mIT -structures, we introduce and investigate a function f : (X,mIT ) → (Y,mY ) called MIT -continuous. As special cases of MIT -continuity, we obtain M -semicontinuity [21] and M -precontinuity [23].

We use Green-Riefel machinary to induce representations from a closed subgroupoid crossed product to the groupoid crossed product with a lower semicontinuous bundle of C∗-algebras .

In this note we present a new treatment of the pointfree version of the semicontinuous quasi-uniformity based on the new tool of the ring of arbitrary (not necessarily continuous) real-valued functions made available recently by J. Gutiérrez Garćıa, T. Kubiak and J. Picado [Localic real functions: a general setting, Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra 213 (2009) 1064-1074]. The purpose is to sh...

In this paper we prove existence and multiplicity results of unbounded critical points for a general class of weakly lower semicontinuous functionals. We will apply a nonsmooth critical point theory developed in [10, 12, 13] and applied in [8, 9, 20] to treat the case of continuous functionals.

Based on some ideas of Greene and Krantz, we study the semicontinuity of automorphism groups of domains in one and several complex variables. We show that semicontinuity fails for domains in C, n > 1, with Lipschitz boundary, but it holds for domains in C1 with Lipschitz boundary. Using the same ideas, we develop some other concepts related to mappings of Lipschitz domains. These include Bergma...

We extend some topologies on the space of upper semicontinuous functions with compact support to those on that of general upper semicontinuous functions and see that graphical topology and modified L topology are the same. We then define random upper semicontinuous functions using their topological Borel field and finally give a Choquet theorem for random upper semicontinuous functions.
