The relation between the two notions quasifactors and joinings is investigated and the notion of a joining quasifactor is introduced. We clarify the close connection between quasifactors and symmetric infinite selfjoinings which arises from de Finetti-Hewitt-Savage theorem. Unlike the zero entropy case where quasifactors seems to preserve some properties of their parent system, it is shown that...

Suppose $textbf{M}_{n}$ is the vector space of all $n$-by-$n$ real matrices, and let $mathbb{R}^{n}$ be the set of all $n$-by-$1$ real vectors. A matrix $Rin textbf{M}_{n}$ is said to be $textit{row substochastic}$ if it has nonnegative entries and each row sum is at most $1$. For $x$, $y in mathbb{R}^{n}$, it is said that $x$ is $textit{sut-majorized}$ by $y$ (denoted by $ xprec_{sut} y$) if t...

The classical output theorem for the M/M/1 queue, due to Burke (1956), states that the departure process from a stationary M/M/1 queue, in equilibrium, has the same law as the arrivals process, that is, it is a Poisson process. In this paper we show that the associated measure-preserving transformation is metrically isomorphic to a two-sided Bernoulli shift. We also discuss some extensions of B...

in this paper,  we introduce  the notion of $m$-fuzzifying interval spaces, and discuss the relationship between $m$-fuzzifying interval spaces and $m$-fuzzifying convex structures.it is proved that  the category  {bf mycsa2}  can be embedded in  the category  {bf  myis}  as a reflective subcategory, where  {bf mycsa2} and   {bf  myis} denote  the category of $m$-fuzzifying convex structures of...

A theorem of Dekking in the combinatorics of words implies that there exists an injective order-preserving transformation f : {0, 1, . . . , n} → {0, 1, . . . , 2n} with the restriction f(i + 1) ≤ f(i) + 2 such that for every 5-term arithmetic progression P its image f(P ) is not an arithmetic progression. In this paper we consider symmetric sets in place of arithmetic progressions and prove lo...

The Lorentz n–group is the group of “isometries” (transformations preserving the inner product) of Minkowski space, fixing 0, and preserving the time direction. This implies that a Lorentz transformation is an linear isomorphism of Rn as a vector space. If, in addition to preserving the time direction, we also preserve space orientation then the group can be denoted SO(1, n − 1). Notice that a ...
