We prove the following theorems:(1) IfXhas strong measure zero and ifYhas strong first category, then their algebraic sum has property S0.(2) IfXhas Hurewicz's covering property, then it has strong measure zero if, and only if, its algebraic sum with any first category set is a first category set.(3) IfXhas strong measure zero and Hurewicz's covering property then its algebraic sum with any set inis a set in. (is included in the class of sets always of first category, and includes the class of strong first category sets.)These results extend: Fremlin and Miller's theorem that strong measure zero sets having Hurewicz's property have Rothberger's property, Galvin and Miller's theorem that the algebraic sum of a set with the γ-property and of a first category set is a first category set, and Bartoszyfński and Judah's characterization of-sets. They also characterize the property (*) introduced by Gerlits and Nagy in terms of older concepts.
We prove the following theorems:1. IfX⊆ 2ωis aγ-set andY⊆2ωis a strongly meager set, thenX+Yis Ramsey null.2. IfX⊆2ωis aγ-set andYbelongs to the class ofsets, then the algebraic sumX+Yis anset as well.3. Under CH there exists a setX∈MGR* which is not Ramsey null.
Abstract. We study relationships between classes of special subsets of the reals (e.g. meager-additive sets, γ-sets, C -sets, λ-sets) and the ideals related to the forcing notions of Laver, Mathias, Miller and Silver.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
