In this article we introduce a new class of Rolewicz-type operators in l_p, $1 le p < infty$. We exhibit a collection F of cardinality continuum of operators of this type which are chaotic and remain so under almost all finite linear combinations, pr
ovided that the linear combination has sufficiently large norm. As a corollary to our main result we also obtain that there exists a countable collection of such operators whose all finite linear combinations are chaotic provided that they have sufficiently large norm.
In recent years much attention has been enjoyed by topological spaces which are dominated by second countable spaces. The origin of the concept dates back to the 1979 paper of Talagrand in which it was shown that for a compact space X, Cp(X) is domin
ated by P, the set of irrationals, if and only if Cp(X) is K-analytic. Cascales extended this result to spaces X which are angelic and finally in 2005 Tkachuk proved that the Talagrand result is true for all Tychnoff spaces X. In recent years, the notion of P-domination has enjoyed attention independent of Cp(X). In particular, Cascales, Orihuela and Tkachuk proved that a Dieudonne complete space is K-analytic if and only if it is dominated by P. A notion related to P-domination is that of strong P- domination. Christensen had earlier shown that a second countable space is strongly P-dominated if and only if it is completely metrizable. We show that a very small modification of the definition of P-domination characterizes Borel subsets of Polish spaces.
The notion of Haar null set was introduced by J. P. R. Christensen in 1973 and reintroduced in 1992 in the context of dynamical systems by Hunt, Sauer and Yorke. During the last twenty years this notion has been useful in studying exceptional sets in
diverse areas. These include analysis, dynamical systems, group theory, and descriptive set theory. Inspired by these various results, we introduce the topological analogue of the notion of Haar null set. We call it Haar meager set. We prove some basic properties of this notion, state some open problems and suggest a possible line of investigation which may lead to the unification of these two notions in certain context.
