Term algebras are important objects in computer science and are correspondingly well-studied. A natural generalization is to quotient these algebras by finitely many ground term equations, obtaining what we call almost free algebras. One of…
We prove that all definable pre-orders are atomic, in a finitely generated free algebra of a discriminator variety of finite similarity type which is generated by its finite members.
We show that the big Ramsey degree of the Boolean algebra with 3 atoms within the countable atomless Boolean algebra is infinite.
We investigate states on von Neumann algebras which are not normal but enjoy various forms of infinite additivity, and show that these exist on $B(H)$ if and only if the cardinality of an orthonormal basis of $H$ satisfies various large…
Small and Zelmanov posed the question whether every element of a graded algebra over an uncountable field must be nilpotent, provided that the homogeneous elements are nilpotent. This question has recently been answered in the negative by…
We prove that in a countable theory T fully stable over a predicate P, any complete set A has the existence property. This means that A can be extended to a model of T without changing the P-part. In particular, T has the Gaifman property:…
We study the algebraic theory of computable functions, which can be viewed as arising from possibly non-halting computer programs or algorithms, acting on some state space, equipped with operations of composition, {\em if-then-else} and…
Under the assumption that the continuum c is a regular cardinal, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a Boolean algebra B of size c defined by sharing the main structural properties that P(N)/fin has under CH and in the aleph2-Cohen…
Given a state on an algebra of bounded quantum-mechanical observables (the self-adjoint part of a C*-algebra), we investigate those subalgebras that are maximal with respect to the property that the given state's restriction to the…
We prove two completeness results for Kleene algebra with tests and a top element, with respect to guarded string languages and binary relations. While the equational theories of those two classes of models coincide over the signature of…
It is shown how to construct *-homomorphic quantum stochastic Feller cocycles for certain unbounded generators, and so obtain dilations of strongly continuous quantum dynamical semigroups on C* algebras; this generalises the construction of…
We describe and classify countable Boolean rings (which may or may not have a multiplicative identity) with finitely many distinguished ideals whose elementary theory is countably categorical. This extends the description by Macintyre and…
We use deformation sequences of (Hopf) algebras, extending the results of Negron and Pevtsova, to show that bosonizations of some suitable braided Hopf algebras by some suitable finite-dimensional Hopf algebras have finitely generated…
We give a unified treatment of the model theory of various enrichments of infinite atomic Boolean algebras, with special attention to quantifier-eliminations, complete axiomatizations and decidability. A classical example is the enrichment…
We prove the following completeness result about classical realizability: given any Boolean algebra with at least two elements, there exists a Krivine-style classical realizability model whose characteristic Boolean algebra is elementarily…
The Kochen-Specker no-go theorem established that hidden-variable theories in quantum mechanics necessarily admit contextuality. This theorem is formally stated in terms of the partial Boolean algebra structure of projectors on a Hilbert…
We study a well-known technique of using absoluteness for giving choice-free proofs to some statements which are known to be provable with the axiom of choice. The idea is to reduce the problem to an inner model where the axiom of choice…
For every regular cardinal kappa there exists a simple complete Boolean algebra with kappa generators.
We show that atoms of the $n$-generated free left-handed skew Boolean intersection algebra are in a bijective correspondence with pointed partitions of non-empty subsets of $\{1,2,\dots, n\}$. Furthermore, under the canonical inclusion into…
We show that finitely generated cohomology is invariant under separable equivalences for all algebras. As a result, we obtain a proof of the finite generation of cohomology for finite symmetric tensor categories in characteristic zero, as…
