The property of weak sequential completeness plays a special role in the theory of Boolean algebras of projections and spectral measures on Banach spaces. For instance, if X is a weakly sequentially complete Banach space, then(i) every strongly closed bounded Boolean algebra of projections on X is complete (3, XVII.3.8, p. 2201); from which it follows easily that(ii) every spectral measure on X of arbitary class (Σ, Γ), where Σ is a σ-algebra of sets and Γ is a total subset of the dual space of X, is strongly countably additive; and hence that(iii) every prespectral operator on X is spectral.(See also (1, Theorem 6.11, p. 165) for (iii).)

Abstract The classical Aronszajn–Donoghue theorem states that for a rank-one perturbation of a self-adjoint operator (by a cyclic vector) the singular parts of the spectral measures of the original and perturbed operators are mutually singular. As simple direct sum type examples show, this result does not hold for finite rank perturbations. However, the set of exceptional perturbations is pretty small. Namely, for a family of rank $d$ perturbations $A_{\boldsymbol{\alpha }}:= A + {\textbf{B}} {\boldsymbol{\alpha }} {\textbf{B}}^*$, ${\textbf{B}}:{\mathbb C}^d\to{{\mathcal{H}}}$, with ${\operatorname{Ran}}{\textbf{B}}$ being cyclic for $A$, parametrized by $d\times d$ Hermitian matrices ${\boldsymbol{\alpha }}$, the singular parts of the spectral measures of $A$ and $A_{\boldsymbol{\alpha }}$ are mutually singular for all ${\boldsymbol{\alpha }}$ except for a small exceptional set $E$. It was shown earlier by the 1st two authors, see [4], that $E$ is a subset of measure zero of the space $\textbf{H}(d)$ of $d\times d$ Hermitian matrices. In this paper, we show that the set $E$ has small Hausdorff dimension, $\dim E \le \dim \textbf{H}(d)-1 = d^2-1$.

In the paper is developed a theory of information storage and retrieval systems which arise in situations when a whole possessed information amounts to a fact that a given document has some feature from properly chosen set. Such systems are described as suitable maps from descriptor algebras into sets of subsets of sets of documents. Since descriptor algebras turn out to be pseudo-Boolean algebras, hence an “inner logic” of our systems is intuitionistic. In the paper is given a construction of systems and are considered theirs properties. We will show also (in Part II) a formalized theory of such systems.
