Compactness of operators on function spaces
Pernecká, Eva ; Gurka, Petr (referee) ; Pick, Luboš (advisor)
Hardy-type operators involving suprema have turned out to be a useful tool in the theory of interpolation, for deriving Sobolev-type inequalities, for estimates of the non-increasing rearrangements of fractional maximal functions or for the description of norms appearing in optimal Sobolev embeddings. This thesis deals with the compactness of these operators on weighted Banach function spaces. We de ne a category of pairs of weighted Banach function spaces and formulate and prove a criterion for the compactness of a Hardy-type operator involving supremum which acts between a couple of spaces belonging to this category. Further, we show that the category contains speci c pairs of weighted Lebesgue spaces determined by a relation between the exponents. Besides, we bring an extension of the criterion to all weighted Lebesgue spaces, in proof of which we use characterization of the compactness of operators having the range in the cone of non-negative non-increasing functions, introduced as a separate result.

History and current state of recreational mathematics and its relation to serious mathematics
Bártlová, Tereza ; Pick, Luboš (advisor)
Dissertation abstract The present thesis is devoted to the study of recreational mathematics, with a particular emphasis on its history, its relation to serious mathematics and its educational benefits. The thesis consists of five papers. In the first one we investigate the history of recreational mathematics. We focus on the development of mathematical problems throughout history, and we try to point out the people who had an important influence on the progress of recreational mathematics. The second article is dedicated to Edwin Abbott Abbott and his book called Flatland. It is one of the first popularizing books on geometry. In the third article we review one of the prominent personalities of recreational mathematics, Martin Gardner. The fourth article is in some sense a sequel to the third one. It deals with treachery of mathematical intuition and mathematical April Fool's hoaxes. The last article is devoted to the implementation recreational mathematics to education of students. 1
