Mittag-Leffler modules occur naturally in algebra, algebraic geometry, and model theory, [18], [12], [17]. If $R$ is a non-right perfect ring, then it is known that in contrast with the classes of all projective and flat modules, the class…
Let I be a dense linear order with a left endpoint but no right endpoint. We consider the lattice L(I) of finite unions of closed intervals of I. This lattice arises naturally in the setting of o-minimality, as these are precisely the…
Motivated by a recent paper of G. Gr\"atzer, a finite distributive lattice $D$ is said to be fully principal congruence representable if for every subset $Q$ of $D$ containing $0$, $1$, and the set $J(D)$ of nonzero join-irreducible…
For a lattice L, let Princ L denote the ordered set of principal congruences of L. In a pioneering paper, G. Gratzer characterized the ordered sets Princ L of finite lattices L; here we do the same for countable lattices. He also showed…
In an earlier paper (math.NT/9906019) we showed that any integral unimodular lattice L of rank n which is not isometric with Z^n has a characteristic vector of norm at most n-8. [A "characteristic vector" of L is a vector w in L such that…
In 1960, G. Gr\"atzer and E.\,T. Schmidt proved that every finite distributive lattice can be represented as the congruence lattice of a sectionally complemented finite lattice $L$. For $u \leq v$ in $L$, they constructed a sectional…
A new result of G. Cz\'edli states that for an ordered set $P$ with at least two elements and a group $G$, there exists a bounded lattice $L$ such that the ordered set of principal congruences of $L$ is isomorphic to $P$ and the…
Maximally supersymmetric Yang--Mills theory (N=4 SYM) is conformal for any value of the coupling. Lattice regularization breaks conformality through the introduction of a non-zero lattice spacing and a finite lattice volume. This…
Let $\mathbf{F}=\left\langle F,R\right\rangle $ be a finite Kripke frame. A congruence of $\mathbf{F}$ is a bisimulation of $\mathbf{F}$ that is also an equivalence relation on F. The set of all congruences of $\mathbf{F}$ is a lattice…
Using the geometry of the projective plane over the finite field F_q, we construct a Hermitian Lorentzian lattice L_q of dimension (q^2 + q + 2) defined over a certain number ring $\cO$ that depends on q. We show that infinitely many of…
We denote by Conc(L) the semilattice of all finitely generated congruences of a lattice L. For varieties (i.e., equational classes) V and W of lattices such that V is contained neither in W nor its dual, and such that every simple member of…
The main result of this paper is the conformal flatness of real-analytic compact Lorentz manifolds of dimension at least $3$ admitting a conformal essential (i.e. conformal, but not isometric) action of a Lie group locally isomorphic to…
If L is an order polynomially complete lattice, (that is: every monotone function from L^n to L is induced by a lattice-theoretic polynomial) then the cardinality of L is a strongly inaccessible cardinal. In particular, the existence of…
This is a systematic study of isometries between noncommutative symmetric spaces. Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra (or an atomic von Neumann algebra with all atoms having the same trace) acting on a separable Hilbert…
We solve the following three questions concerning surjective linear isometries between spaces of Lipschitz functions $\mathrm{Lip}(X,E)$ and $\mathrm{Lip}(Y,F)$, for strictly convex normed spaces $E$ and $F$ and metric spaces $X$ and $Y$:…
In this paper we primarily study monomial ideals and their minimal free resolutions by studying their associated LCM lattices. In particular, we formally define the notion of coordinatizing a finite atomic lattice P to produce a monomial…
The matching problem for a given Jordan curve in the complex plane asks to find two nonconstant functions, one analytic in the bounded complementary component of the curve and the other analytic in the unbounded complementary component of…
Let L be a Banach lattice with order continuous norm, and let S be a multiplicative semigroup of ideal-triangularizable positive compact operators on L such that, for every pair A, B in S, the atomic diagonal of the commutator AB-BA is…
