Using the well-known equivalence between meet-completions of posets and standard closure operators we show a general method for constructing meet-completions for isotone poset expansions. With this method we find a meet-completion for…
In a number of papers, Y. Sternfeld investigated the problems of representation of continuous and bounded functions by linear superpositions. In particular, he proved that if such representation holds for continuous functions, then it holds…
We provide an internal characterization of those finite algebras (i.e., algebraic structures) $\mathbf A$ such that the number of homomorphisms from any finite algebra $\mathbf X$ to $\mathbf A$ is bounded from above by a polynomial in the…
In this paper, we show that the class of representable residuated semigroups has the finite representation property. That is, every finite representable residuated semigroup is representable over a finite base. This result gives a positive…
A partial algebra construction of Gr\"atzer and Schmidt from "Characterizations of congruence lattices of abstract algebras" (Acta Sci. Math. (Szeged) 24 (1963), 34-59) is adapted to provide an alternative proof to a well-known fact that…
Let A be a set of integers. For every integer n, let r_{A,h}(n) denote the number of representations of n in the form n = a_1 + a_2 + ... + a_h, where a_1, a_2,...,a_h are in A and a_1 \leq a_2 \leq ... \leq a_h. The function r_{A,h}: Z \to…
In this note, we give two different proofs that relation algebra $52_{65}$ is representable over a finite set. The first is probabilistic, and uses Johnson schemes. The second is an explicit group representation over $…
We prove that the problems of representing a finite ordered complemented semigroup or finite lattice-ordered semigroup as an algebra of binary relations over a finite set are undecidable. In the case that complementation is taken with…
We present axiomatisations for a number of partial function signatures that include domain restriction, modelled as a right normal band operation. Other operations considered are override and update, difference, minus, intersection,…
We consider the problem of representation of a bivariate function by sums of ridge functions. We show that if a function of a certain smoothness class is represented by a sum of finitely many, arbitrarily behaved ridge functions, then it…
The first and second representation theorems for sign-indefinite, not necessarily semi-bounded quadratic forms are revisited. New straightforward proofs of these theorems are given. A number of necessary and sufficient conditions ensuring…
A general diffusion semimartingale is a one-dimensional path-continuous semimartingale that is also a regular strong Markov process. We say that a continuous semimartingale has the representation property if all local martingales w.r.t. its…
In this paper we determine the representation type of some algebras of infinite matrices continuously controlled at infinity by a compact metrizable space. We explicitly classify their finitely presented modules in the finite and tame…
We prove that among the finite dimensional algebras of finite representation type those that are string algebras are precisely the ones that have the property that the middle term of an arbitrary extension of indecomposable modules has at…
The results presented in this paper are refinements of some results presented in a previous paper. Three such refined results are presented. The first one relaxes one of the basic hypotheses assumed in the previous paper, and thus extends…
We consider a version of a famous open problem formulated by Kadison, asking whether bounded representations of operator algebras are automatically completely bounded. We investigate this question in the context of amenable operator…
We prove some finiteness theorems for the Picard functor of an algebraic stack, in the spirit of SGA 6, exp. XII and XIII. In particular, we give a stacky version of Raynaud's relative representability theorem, we give sufficient conditions…
In this note, we survey two instances in the representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras where the quantity of a type of structures is intimately related to the size of those same structures. More explicitly, we review the fact…
The residual finite-dimensionality of a $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra is known to be encoded in a topological property of its space of representations, stating that finite-dimensional representations should be dense therein. We extend this…
Given a representation-finite algebra B and a subalgebra A of B such that the Jacobson radicals of A and B coincide, we prove that the representation dimension of A is at most three. By a result of Igusa and Todorov, this implies that the…
