Let $\beta\N$ denote the set of ultrafilters on $\N$.
\begin{fact}
\begin{itemize}
\item This is a topological space,
where a basis consist of sets
$V_A \coloneqq \{p \in \beta\N : A \in p\}, A \subseteq \N$.

Note that the basis is clopen. In particular
any closed set can be written as an intersection of sets
of the form $V_A$:
If $F$ is closed, then $U = \beta\N \setminus F = \bigcup_{i\in I} V_{A_i}$,
so $F = \bigcap_{i \in I} V_{\N \setminus A_i}$.

\begin{fact}
\label{fact:bNhd}
$\beta\N$ is Hausdorff.
\end{fact}
\begin{proof}
Let $\cU \neq \cV \in \beta\N$.
Then there is some $A \in \cU \setminus \cV$,
so $A^c \in \cV$,
so $\cU \in V_A$ and $\cV \in V_A^c$.
\end{proof}
%\begin{remark}+
% This even shows that $\beta\N$ is totally separated.
% In fact, $\beta\N$ is a profinite space,
% as the next fact shows.
%\end{remark}
\begin{fact}
\label{fact:bNcompact}
$\beta\N$ is compact.
\end{fact}
\begin{proof}
Let $\{F_i\}_{i \in I}$ be non-empty
and closed
such that
for any $i_1,\ldots., i_k \in I$,
$k \in \N$,
$\bigcap_{j=1}^k F_{i_j} \neq \emptyset$.
We need to show that $\bigcap_{i \in I} F_i \neq \emptyset$.

Replacing each $F_i$ by $V_{A_j^i}$ such
that $F_i = \bigcap_{j \in J_i} V_{A_j^i}$
(cf.~\yaref{ob:bNclopenbasis})
we may assume that $F_i$ is of the form $V_{A_i}$.
We get $\{F_i = V_{A_i} : i \in I\}$
with the finite intersection property.
2024-02-07 02:05:20 +01:00
}{Wlog.~$F_i = V_{A_i}$.}
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
Hence
$\{A_i : i \in I\} \mathbin{\text{\reflectbox{$\coloneqq$}}} \cF_0$
has the finite intersection property.
Then $\cF = \{A \subseteq \N : A \supseteq A_{i_1} \cap \ldots \cap A_{i_k}, k \in \N, i_1, \ldots, i_k \in I\}$
is a filter.
Let $\cU$ be an ultrafilter extending $\cF$.
Then $\cU \in \bigcap_{i \in I} V_{A_i} = \bigcap_{i \in I} F_i$.
\end{proof}
\begin{fact}
Consider $\N$ as a subspace of $\beta\N$
via $\N \hookrightarrow \beta\N, n \mapsto \hat{n} \coloneqq \{A \subseteq \N : n \in A\}$.
Then
\begin{itemize}
\item $ \{\hat{n}\} $ is open in $\beta\N$ for all $n \in \N$.
\item $\N \subseteq \beta\N$ is dense.
\end{itemize}
\end{fact}
\begin{theorem}
2024-02-07 02:05:20 +01:00
\label{thm:uflimit}
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
For every compact Hausdorff space $X$,
a sequence $(x_n)$ in $X$,
and $\cU \in \beta\N$,
2024-02-03 02:02:09 +01:00
we have that $\ulim{\cU}_n x_n = x$
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
exists and is unique,
i.e.~for all $x \in G \overset{\text{open}}{\subseteq} X$
we have $\{n \in \N : x_n \in G\} \in \cU$.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
Towards a contradiction
assume that there is no such $x$.
For every $x$ take $x \in G_x \overset{\text{open}}{\subseteq} X$
such that
$\{ n \in \N : x_n \in G_x\} \not\in \cU$.
So $\{G_x\}_{x \in X}$ is an open cover of $X$.
Since $X$ is compact,
there exists a finite subcover
$G_{x_1}, \ldots, G_{x_m}$.
2024-01-30 11:55:30 +01:00
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
But then
\begin{IEEEeqnarray*}{rCl}
\N &=& \{ n \in \N : x_n \in \bigcup_{i=1}^m G_{x_i}\}\\
&=& \underbrace{\bigcup_{i=1}^m \overbrace{\{n \in \N : x_n \in G_{x_i}\}}^{\not\in \cU}}_{\not\in \cU},
\end{IEEEeqnarray*}
since $B_1 \cup \ldots \cup B_m \in \cU \iff \exists i < m.~B_i \in \cU$.
2024-02-03 02:02:09 +01:00
It is clear that $\ulim{\cU}_n x_n$
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
is unique, since $X$ is Hausdorff.
\end{proof}
\begin{theorem}
Let $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space.
For any $f\colon \N \to X$
there is a unique continuous extension $\tilde{f}\colon \beta\N \to X$.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
Let
\begin{IEEEeqnarray*}{rCl}
\tilde{f}\colon \beta\N &\longrightarrow & X \\
2024-02-03 02:02:09 +01:00
\cU &\longmapsto & \ulim{\cU}_n f(n).
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
\end{IEEEeqnarray*}
\todo{Exercise: Check that $\tilde{f}$ is continuous.}
$\tilde{f}$ is uniquely determined,
since $\N \subseteq \beta\N$ is dense.
% TODO general fact: continuous functions agreeing on a dense set
% agree everywhere (fact section)
\end{proof}
2024-02-06 23:59:07 +01:00
\begin{trivial}+
$\beta$ is a functor from the category of topological
spaces to the category of compact Hausdorff spaces.
It is left adjoint to the inclusion functor.

% RECAP
\gist{%
$\beta\N$ is equipped with $+$ which extends $+\colon \N \times \N \to \N$,
\[
\cU + \cV = \{A \subseteq \N : (\cU m)\left( (\cU n) \{m+n \in A\} \right)\}.
\]
This is associative, but not commutative.
}{}
% END RECAP
\begin{fact}
$+\colon \beta\N\times \beta\N \to \beta\N$
is left continuous,
i.e.~for $\cV$ fixed,
$\cU \mapsto \cU + \cV$ is continuous.
\end{fact}
\begin{proof}
Fix $A$ and consider $V_A$.
We need to show that the inverse image of $V_A$ is open.
We have
\begin{IEEEeqnarray*}{rCl}
\cU + \cV \in V_A &\iff& A \in \cU + \cV\\
&\iff& (\cU_m)(\cV_n) \{m+n \in A\}\\
&\iff& \{m \in \N : (\cV n) m+n \in A\} \in \cU\\
&\iff& \cU \in V_{\{m \in \N: (\cV n) m+n \in A\}}.
\end{IEEEeqnarray*}
\end{proof}
\begin{corollary}
2024-01-30 11:55:30 +01:00
$(\beta\N,+)$
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
is a %(left)
\vocab{compact semigroup},
2024-01-30 11:55:30 +01:00
i.e.~it is compact, Hausdorff, associative and left-continuous.%
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
%\footnote{There is no convention on left and right.}
\end{corollary}
So we can apply the \yaref{lem:ellisnumakura}
to obtain
\begin{corollary}
There is $\cU \in \beta\N$
such that $\cU + \cU = \cU$.
\end{corollary}
\begin{observe}
Principal ultrafilters $\neq \hat{0}$ are not idempotent.
We can restrict to $\beta\N \setminus \N$
to get an idempotent element that is not principal.

\begin{theorem}[Hindman]
2024-01-30 11:55:30 +01:00
\label{thm:hindman}
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
If $\N$ is partitioned into finitely many
sets,
then there is is an infinite subset $H \subseteq \N$
such that all finite sums of distinct
elements of $H$
belong to the same set of the partition.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}[Galvin,Glazer]
Let $\cU \in \beta\N \setminus \N$
be such that $\cU + \cU = \cU$.
Let $P$ be the piece of the partition
that is in $\cU$.
So $(\cU n ) n \in P$.
Let us define a sequence $x_1,x_2,\ldots$
\begin{itemize}
\item $\cU$ is idempotent,
so $(\cU n)(\cU k) n+k \in P$.
We get
\[(\cU n) \left( n \in P \land (\cU_k) n+k \in P \right)\].
Pick $x_1$ that satisfies this,
i.e.~$x_1 \in P$ and $(\cU_k) x_1+k \in P$.
\item $\cU$ is idempotent,
so
\[
(\cU n)[
n \in P
\land (\cU_k) n + k \in P
\land x_1 + n \in P
\land (\cU_k) x_1 + n + k \in P
]
\]
Take $x_2 > x_1$ that satisfies this.
\item Suppose we have chosen $\langle x_i : i < n \rangle$.
Since $\cU$ is idempotent, we have
2024-02-07 02:05:20 +01:00
\begin{IEEEeqnarray*}{rCl}
(\cU n)&& n \in P\\
&\land& (\cU_k) n + k \in P\\
&\land& \forall {I \subseteq n}.~ (\sum_{i \in I} x_i + n \in P)\\
&\land& (\cU_k)\left( \forall {I \subseteq n}.~ (\sum_{i \in I} x_i + n + k) \in P\right).
\end{IEEEeqnarray*}
2024-01-26 11:58:57 +01:00
Chose $x_n > x_{n-1}$ that satisfies this.
\end{itemize}
Set $H \coloneqq \{x_i : i < \omega\}$.
\end{proof}
Next time we'll see another proof of this theorem.
