We characterise piecewise Boolean domains, that is, those domains that arise as Boolean subalgebras of a piecewise Boolean algebra. This leads to equivalent descriptions of the category of piecewise Boolean algebras: either as piecewise…

Quasi-Boolean algebras were introduced as the generalization of Boolean algebras in the setting of quantum computation logic. In this paper, we investigate the completeness and congruences of quasi-Boolean algebras. First, we discuss the…

We define Boolean algebras in the linear context and study its symmetric powers. We give explicit formulae for products in symmetric Boolean algebras of various dimensions. We formulate symmetric forms of the inclusion-exclusion principle.

We study various forms of amalgamation for Boolean algebras with operations. We will also have the occasion to weaken the Boolean structure dealing with MV and BL algebras with operators.

We explicitly compute certain Douglas algebras that are invariant under both the Bourgain map and the minimal envelope map. We also compute the Bourgain algebra and the minimal envelope of the maximal subalgebras of a certain singly…

We show that it is consistent with ZFC (relative to large cardinals) that every infinite Boolean algebra B has an irredundant subset A such that 2^{|A|} = 2^{|B|}. This implies in particular that B has 2^{|B|} subalgebras. We also discuss…

In this paper, we present a new axiomatic system that is a minimal axiomatization of Boolean algebras. Furthermore, the symmetric difference is shown to be algebraically analogous to the modular difference of two numbers. Finally, a new…

Methods of solving big Boolean equations can be broadly classified as algebraic, tabular, numerical and map methods. The most prominent among these classes are the algebraic and map methods. This paper surveys and compares these two types…

The notion of overlap algebra introduced by G. Sambin provides a constructive version of complete Boolean algebra. Here we first show some properties concerning overlap algebras: we prove that the notion of overlap morphism corresponds…

We study equations over boolean algebras with distinguished elements. We prove the criteria, when a boolean algebra is equationally Noetherian, weakly equationally Noetherian, $\mathbf{q}_\omega$-compact or $\mathbf{u}_\omega$-compact. Also…

We prove that complete Boolean algebras can be reconstructed from any locally moving subgroup of their full automorphism group. We use this theorem in order to prove that linear orders and circles can be reconstructed from small subgroups…

For given Boolean algebras $\mathbb{A}$ and $\mathbb{B}$ we endow the space $\mathcal{H}(\mathbb{A},\mathbb{B})$ of all Boolean homomorphisms from $\mathbb{A}$ to $\mathbb{B}$ with various topologies and study convergence properties of…

We investigate reflection-type problems on the class SPM, of Boolean algebras carrying strictly positive finitely additive measures. We show, in particular, that in the constructible universe there is a Boolean algebra $\mathfrak A$ which…

We prove that assuming suitable cardinal arithmetic, if B is a Boolean algebra every homomorphic image of which is isomorphic to a factor, then B has locally small density. We also prove that for an (infinite) Boolean algebra B, the number…

We prove a new lower bound for the Mahler measure of a polynomial in one and in several variables that depends on the complex coefficients, and the number of monomials. In one variable our result generalizes a classical inequality of…

The Mahler measure of the polynomials $t(x^m-1) y - (x^n-1) \in \dC[x,y]$ is essentially the sum of volumes of a certain collection of ideal hyperbolic polyhedra in $\HH^3$, which can be determined a priori as a function on the parameter…
