This paper establishes a uniform procedure to split the operations in any algebraic operad, generalizing previous known notions of splitting algebraic structures from the dendriform algebra of Loday that splits the associative operation to…
Delta-matroid theory is often thought of as a generalization of topological graph theory. It is well-known that an orientable embedded graph is bipartite if and only if its Petrie dual is orientable. In this paper, we first introduce the…
The Splitter Theorem states that, if $N$ is a 3-connected proper minor of a 3-connected matroid $M$ such that, if $N$ is a wheel or whirl then $M$ has no larger wheel or whirl, respectively, then there is a sequence $M_0,..., M_n$ of…
We introduce a binary matroid M(IAS(G)) associated with a looped simple graph G. M(IAS(G)) classifies G up to local equivalence, and determines the delta-matroid and isotropic system associated with G. Moreover, a parametrized form of its…
An expansive, monotone operator is dominating; if it is also idempotent it is a closure operator. Although they have distinct properties, these two kinds of discrete operators are also intertwined. Every closure operator is dominating;…
We provide a combinatorial study of split matroids, a class that was motivated by the study of matroid polytopes from a tropical geometry point of view. A nice feature of split matroids is that they generalize paving matroids, while being…
We call a class $\mathcal{M}$ of matroids hereditary if it is closed under flats. We denote by $\mathcal{M}^{ext}$ the class of matroids $M$ that is in $\mathcal{M}$, or has an element $e$ such that $M \backslash e$ is in $\mathcal{M}$. We…
In 2004, Ehrenfeucht, Harju, and Rozenberg showed that any graph on a vertex set $V$ can be obtained from a complete graph on $V$ via a sequence of the operations of complementation, switching edges and non-edges at a vertex, and local…
In this work we provide a decomposition theorem for the class of quaternary and non-binary signed-graphic matroids. This generalizes previous results for binary signed-graphic matroids and graphic matroids, and it provides the theoretical…
The classical notion of splitting a binary quadratic operad $\mathcal{P}$ gives the notion of pre-$\mathcal{P}$-algebras characterized by $\mathcal{O}$-operators, with pre-Lie algebras as a well-known example. Pre-$\mathcal{P}$-algebras…
In this paper we introduce novel views of monoids and groups. More specifically, for a given set $S$, let $S^{S\times S}$ be the set of binary operations on $S$. We equip $S^{S\times S}$ with canonical binary operations induced by the…
We introduce and study a natural variant of matroid amalgams. For matroids M(A) and N(B) such that M/(A-B)=N(B-A), we define a splice of M and N to be a matroid L on the union of A and B with L(B-A)=M and L/(A-B)=N. We show that splices…
M. Lin defined a binary operation for two positive semi-definite matrices in studying certain determinantal inequalities that arise from diffusion tensor imaging. This operation enjoys some interesting properties similar to the operator…
A clutter consists of a finite set and a collection of pairwise incomparable subsets. Clutters are natural generalisations of matroids, and they have similar operations of deletion and contraction. We introduce a notion of connectivity for…
In this paper, we combine results on extensions of operators with recent results on the relation between the M-function and the spectrum, to examine the spectral behaviour of boundary value problems. M-functions are defined for general…
Let $A\subseteq B$ be a ring extension and $\mathcal{G}$ be a set of $A$-submodules of $B$. We introduce a class of closure operations on $\mathcal{G}$ (which we call \emph{multiplicative operations on $(A,B,\mathcal{G})$}) that generalizes…
Double forms are sections of the vector bundles $\Lambda^{k}T^*\mathcal{M}\otimes \Lambda^{m}T^*\mathcal{M}$, where in this work $(\mathcal{M},\mathfrak{g})$ is a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We study graded second-order…
A closure endomorphism of a Hilbert algebra A is a mapping that is simultaneously an endomorphism of and a closure operator on A. It is known that the set CE of all closure endomorphisms of A is a distributive lattice where the meet of two…
We study a closure operator derived from the matrix endofunctor on the category of rings with unity. We investigate the invariance of various ring-theoretic properties under this operator. A key finding is the decisive nature of this…
On an infinite set some closure operators are finitary (algebraic) while others are not. We can generalize this idea for a complete algebraic lattice letting the compact elements act as the finite sets. With this in mind, we will consider…
