All constructive methods employed in modern mathematics produce only countable sets, even when designed to transcend countability. We show that any constructive argument for uncountability -- excluding diagonalization techniques --…

Inspired by the classical theory of modules over a monoid, we give a first account of the natural notion of module over a monad. The associated notion of morphism of left modules ("Linear" natural transformations) captures an important…

Let D be a masa in B(H) where H is a separable Hilbert space. We find real numbers \eta_0 < \eta_1 < \eta_2 < ... < \eta_6 so that for every bounded, normal D-bimodule map {\Phi} on B(H) either ||\Phi|| > \eta_6, or ||\Phi|| = \eta_k for…

Given a quiver, we consider its cohomological Hall algebra (CoHA) as well as CoHA modules built of cohomology groups of non-commutative Hilbert schemes. We investigate cell decompositions of non-commutative Hilbert schemes and the…

Motivated by work of Barot, Geiss and Zelevinsky, we study a collection of Z-bases (which we call companion bases) of the integral root lattice of a root system of simply-laced Dynkin type. Each companion basis is associated with the quiver…

The Kuchar observables notion is shown to apply only to a limited range of theories. Relational mechanics, slightly inhomogeneous cosmology and supergravity are used as examples that require further notions of observables. A suitably…

We review and analyse techniques from the literature for extending a normed algebra, A to a normed algebra, B, so that B has interesting or desirable properties which A may lack. For example, B might include roots of monic polynomials over…

We show that, in a highest weight category with duality, the endomorphism algebra of a tilting object is naturally a cellular algebra. Our proof generalizes a recent construction of Andersen, Stroppel, and Tubbenhauer. This result raises…

In this paper we study the comparison between the logarithmic and the meromorphic de Rham complexes along a divisor in a complex manifold. We focus on the case of free divisors, starting with the case of locally quasihomogeneous divisors,…

Let Q be a quiver. M. Reineke and A. Hubery investigated the connection between the composition monoid, as introduced by M. Reineke, and the generic composition algebra, as introduced by C. M. Ringel, specialised at q=0. In this thesis we…

Our first motivation was the question: can a countable structure have an automorphism group, which a free uncountable group? This is answered negatively in [Sh:744]. Lecturing in a conference in Rutgers, February 2001, I was asked whether I…

A topological space $X$ is defined to have an $\omega^\omega$-base if at each point $x\in X$ the space $X$ has a neighborhood base $(U_\alpha[x])_{\alpha\in\omega^\omega}$ such that $U_\beta[x]\subset U_\alpha[x]$ for all $\alpha\le\beta$…

A countable structure is said to be extendible if it has the same Scott sentence as some uncountable structure. Rigid structures are not extendible. We give an example of an extendible model with a rigid elementary extension.

We establish the existence and uniqueness of finite free resolutions - and their attendant Betti numbers - for graded commuting d-tuples of Hilbert space operators. Our approach is based on the notion of free cover of a (perhaps…

We introduce a finite-dimensional algebra that controls the possible boundary conditions of a conformal field theory. For theories that are obtained by modding out a Z_2 symmetry (corresponding to a so-called D_odd-type, or half-integer…

We define closed model category structures on different categories connected to the world of operad algebras over the category C(k) of (unbounded) complexes of k-modules: on the category of operads, on the category of algebras over a fixed…

The concept of integro-differential algebra has been introduced recently in the study of boundary problems of differential equations. We generalize this concept to that of integro-differential algebra with a weight, in analogy to the…

A numeral system is defined by three closed $\lambda$-terms : a normal $\lambda$-term $d_0$ for Zero, a $\lambda$-term $S_d$ for Successor, and a $\lambda$-term for Zero Test, such that the $\lambda$-terms $({S_d}^{i} ~ d_0)$ are…

Given an algebra A, presented by generators and relations, i.e. as a quotient of a tensor algebra by an ideal, we construct a free algebra resolution of A, i.e. a differential graded algebra which is quasi-isomorphic to A and which is…

Consider a complex analytic manifold $X$ and a coherent Lie subalgebra $\shi$ of the Lie algebra of complex vector fields on $X$. By using a natural $\shd_X$-module $\shm_\shi$ naturally associated to $\shi$ and the ring (in the derived…
