We present a Galois theory connecting finitary operations with pairs of finitary relations one of which is contained in the other. The Galois closed sets on both sides are characterised as locally closed subuniverses of the full iterative…
In this paper we focus on functions of the form $A^n\rightarrow \mathcal{P}(B)$, for possibly different arbitrary non-empty sets $A$ and $B$, and where $\mathcal{P}(B)$ denotes the set of all subsets of $B$. These mappings are called…
Classes of functions of several variables on arbitrary non-empty domains that are closed under permutation of variables and addition of dummy variables are characterized in terms of generalized constraints, and hereby Hellerstein's Galois…
A Galois connection between clones and relational clones on a fixed finite domain is one of the cornerstones of the so-called algebraic approach to the computational complexity of non-uniform Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). Cohen…
Equivalence relations or, more general, quasiorders (i.e., reflexive and transitive binary relations) $\rho$ have the property that an $n$-ary operation $f$ preserves $\rho$, i.e., $f$ is a polymorphism of $\rho$, if and only if each…
We consider sets of operations on a set A that are closed under permutation of variables, addition of dummy variables and composition. We describe these closed sets in terms of a Galois connection between operations and systems of pointed…
The general Galois theory for functions and relational constraints over arbitrary sets described in the authors' previous paper is refined by imposing algebraic conditions on relations.
We study the basic Galois connection induced by the "satisfaction" relation between external operations $A^n\rightarrow B$ defined on a set $A$ and valued in a possibly different set $B$ on the one hand, and ordered pairs $(R,S)$ of…
In this article, we prove infinitary version of one to one correspondence theorem between clones and relational clones on a fixed possibly infinite set. We also characterize the relational clone corresponding to the clone of all finitary…
We introduce a new approach to the description of multi-sorted clones (sets of $k$-tuples of operations of the same arity, closed under coordinatewise composition and containing all projection tuples) on a two-element domain. Leveraging the…
We propose a classification of symmetric conservative clones with a finite carrier. For the study, we use the functional Galois connection $(Inv_Q, Pol_Q)$, which is a natural modification of the connection $(Inv, Pol)$ based on the…
Pippenger's Galois theory of finite functions and relational constraints is extended to the infinite case. The functions involved are functions of several variables on a set $A$ and taking values in a possibly different set $B$, where any…
Analogical proportions are 4-ary relations that read "A is to B as C is to D". Recent works have highlighted the fact that such relations can support a specific form of inference, called analogical inference. This inference mechanism was…
We discuss the existence of Galois relations obeyed by certain link invariants. Some of these relations have recently been identified and exploited within the context of CFT and Lie/Kac-Moody representation theory. These relations should…
Given a family of continuous real functions $\mathcal{G}$, let $R_\mathcal{G}$ be a binary relation defined as follows: a continuous function $f\colon\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ is in the relation with a closed set $E\subseteq\mathbb{R}$ if…
Preclones are described as the closed classes of the Galois connection induced by a preservation relation between operations and matrix collections. The Galois closed classes of matrix collections are also described by explicit closure…
We point out the relevance of the Differential Galois Theory of linear differential equations for the exact semiclassical computations in path integrals in quantum mechanics. The main tool will be a necessary condition for complete…
The Lambek-Grishin calculus is a symmetric extension of the Lambek calculus: in addition to the residuated family of product, left and right division operations of Lambek's original calculus, one also considers a family of coproduct, right…
We study the form of possible algebraic relations between functions satisfying linear differential equations. In particular , if f and g satisfy linear differential equations and are algebraically dependent, we give conditions on the…
We consider equations of the form Bf=g, where B is a Galois connection between lattices of functions. This includes the case where B is the Legendre-Fenchel transform, or more generally a Moreau conjugacy. We characterise the existence and…
