This paper examines the problem of ranking a collection of objects using pairwise comparisons (rankings of two objects). In general, the ranking of $n$ objects can be identified by standard sorting methods using $n log_2 n$ pairwise…
Each family $\mathcal{M}$ of means has a natural, partial order (point-wise order), that is $M \le N$ iff $M(x) \le N(x)$ for all admissible $x$. In this setting we can introduce the notion of interval-type set (a subset $\mathcal{I}…
In this article, we introduce the study of a class of finite groups $G$ which admits a subgroup which intersects all non-trivial subgroups of $G$. We also explore a subclass of it consisting of all groups $G$ in which the prime order…
We investigate the notion of a semi-retraction between two first order structures (in typically different signatures) that was introduced by the second author as a link between the Ramsey property and generalized indiscernible sequences. We…
For a number of properties of C*-algebras, including real rank zero, stable rank one, pure infiniteness, residual hereditary infiniteness, the combination of pure infiniteness and the ideal property, the property of being an AT algebra with…
Given a hereditary class $\mathcal{F}$ of finite relational structures, the rank function $\mathsf{rk}:\sigma\mathcal{F}\to\omega_1\cup\{\infty\}$, introduced by Kubi\'{s} and Shelah, measures how far a countable structure is from being…
In this paper we introduce the notion of right waist and right comparizer ideals for semigroups. In particular, we study the ideal theory of semigroups containing right waists and right comparizer ideals. We also study those properties of…
Counterfactual inference aims to estimate the counterfactual outcome at the individual level given knowledge of an observed treatment and the factual outcome, with broad applications in fields such as epidemiology, econometrics, and…
The present survey aims at being a list of Conjectures and Problems in an area of model-theoretic algebra wide open for research, not a list of known results. To keep the text compact, it focuses on structures of finite Morley rank,…
We characterize the values of the stable rank for Leavitt path algebras, by giving concrete criteria in terms of properties of the underlying graph.
Random intersection graphs model networks with communities, assuming an underlying bipartite structure of groups and individuals, where these groups may overlap. Group memberships are generated through the bipartite configuration model.…
We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of fixed rank matrices with integer coefficients over a number field K/Q and bounded norm. As an application, we derive an approximate Rogers integral formula for discrete sets of module…
DRC-semigroups model associative systems with domain and range operations, and contain many important classes, such as inverse, restriction, Ehresmann, regular $*$-, and $*$-regular semigroups. In this paper we show that the category of…
We give a survey on recent results on inequalities between the ranks of homotopy and cohomology groups (resp., graded components of mixed Hodge structures on these groups) of rationally elliptic spaces (resp., quasi-projective varieties…
We characterize Leavitt path algebras which are exchange rings in terms of intrinsic properties of the graph and show that the values of the stable rank for these algebras are 1, 2 or $\infty$. Concrete criteria in terms of properties of…
We study the tensor rank of the tensor corresponding to the algebra of n-variate complex polynomials modulo the dth power of each variable. As a result we find a sequence of tensors with a large gap between rank and border rank, and thus a…
We determine sets of elements which, under certain conditions, generate an intersection of ideals up to radical.
We find lower bounds on the rank of a "real" vector bundle over an involutive space, such that "real" vector bundles of higher rank have a trivial summand and such that a stable isomorphism for such bundles implies ordinary isomorphism. We…
We prove equality between the Topological Stable Rank and the Bass Stable Rank for finitely generated projective left modules over a unital C*-algebra. In order to do so, the concept of Stable Rank of a Hilbert module is introduced.
The relation between representations and positive definite functions is a key concept in harmonic analysis on topological groups. Recently this relation has been studied on topological groupoids. This is the first in a series of papers in…
