Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Extract
1. In a note in these Proceedings, Mr S. Verblunsky proves the following result:
Theorem A. Let C be a continuous arc joining the points (x1, y0) and (x2, y0), where x2 > x1. Suppose that C does not cross the line y = y0. Then, given any positive h < x2 − x1, there is α yh such that some two points (ξ1, yh), (ξ2, yh), in which y = yh cuts C, satisfy the relation ξ2 − ξ1 = h.
