Title: Generalized convexity and separation theorems

Date : September 19th, 2006 (Tuesday)
Time : 4:30p.m. - 5:00p.m.
Venue : Room 513

Abstract:
In 1937 E. F. Beckenbach generalized the notion of convex
functions. In a similar way F-convex sets are defined. Many
properties of F-convex functions and F-convex sets are similar
to those known for the classical convexity. In the talk some new
results of this type will be presented. First, the Kakutani theorem
(stating that two disjoint convex sets can be separated by
complementary convex sets) will be extended to F-convex sets.
Then some characterizations of pairs of functions that can be
separated by an F-convex function or by a function belonging to F
will be given.

Title: On embedding of diffeomorphisms on Banach space
in regular iteration semigroup
Speaker: Marek Cezary Zdun, Professor

Date : September 19th, 2006 (Tuesday)
Time : 5:00p.m. - 5:30p.m.
Venue : Room 513

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Abstract:
Let X be a real Banach space, U (subset of X) is an open set and
F is a diffeomorphism. A family of C1 mappings
is said to be a regular iteration semigroup or semiflow of f.
An application for C1 iterative roots of f is given in this paper, that
is the functions g such that g^n=f.
