We investigate the definability (reducts) lattice of the order of integers and describe a sublattice generated by relations 'between', 'cycle', 'separation', 'neighbor', '1-codirection', 'order' and equality'. Some open questions are…
The notion of computable reducibility between equivalence relations on the natural numbers provides a natural computable analogue of Borel reducibility. We investigate the computable reducibility hierarchy, comparing and contrasting it with…
We introduce the notion of finitary computable reducibility on equivalence relations on the natural numbers. This is a weakening of the usual notion of computable reducibility, and we show it to be distinct in several ways. In particular,…
We study computably enumerable equivalence relations (ceers) on N and unravel a rich structural theory for a strong notion of reducibility among ceers.
One of the longstanding problems in universal algebra is the question of which finite lattices are isomorphic to the congruence lattices of finite algebras. This question can be phrased as which finite lattices can be represented as…
The complexity of equivalence relations has received much attention in the recent literature. The main tool for such endeavour is the following reducibility: given equivalence relations $R$ and $S$ on natural numbers, $R$ is computably…
We investigate the complexity of isomorphism relations for classes of finitely generated and n-generated computably enumerable (c.e.) algebras, presented via c.e. presentations -- that is, as quotients of term algebras over decidable sets…
We define notions of generically and coarsely computable relations and structures and functions between structures. We investigate the existence and uniqueness of equivalence structures in the context of these definitions
Computable reducibility is a well-established notion that allows to compare the complexity of various equivalence relations over the natural numbers. We generalize computable reducibility by introducing degree spectra of reducibility and…
Equations over linearly ordered semilattices are studied. For any equation $t(X)=s(X)$ we find irreducible components of its solution set and compute the average number of irreducible components of all equations in $n$ variables.
Continuous reducibilities are a proven tool in computable analysis, and have applications in other fields such as constructive mathematics or reverse mathematics. We study the order-theoretic properties of several variants of the two most…
We investigate the complexity of the lattice of local clones over a countably infinite base set. In particular, we prove that this lattice contains all algebraic lattices with at most countably many compact elements as complete sublattices,…
We consider equivalence relations and preorders complete for various levels of the arithmetical hierarchy under computable, component-wise reducibility. We show that implication in first order logic is a complete preorder for $\SI 1$, the…
We prove that there is a lattice embedded from every countable distributive lattice into the Boolean algebra of computable subsets of $\mathbb{N}$. Along the way, we discuss all relevant results about lattices, Boolean algebras and…
We conjecture recurrence relations satisfied by the degrees of some linearizable lattice equations. This helps to prove linear growth of these equations. We then use these recurrences to search for lattice equations that have linear growth…
We study effectively inseparable (e.i.) pre-lattices (i.e. structures of the form $L=\langle \omega, \wedge, \lor, 0, 1, \leq_L\rangle$ where $\omega$ denotes the set of natural numbers and the following hold: $\wedge, \lor$ are binary…
We discuss combinatorial conditions for the existence of various types of reductions between equivalence relations, and in particular identify necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of injective reductions.
Svenonius theorem reduces the problem of first-order definability to the problem of relationship between groups of permutations. In the present paper we use this approach to describe the lattice of definable relations for the structure of…
A standard tool for classifying the complexity of equivalence relations on $\omega$ is provided by computable reducibility. This reducibility gives rise to a rich degree structure. The paper studies equivalence relations, which induce…
Looking at some monoids and (semi)rings (natural numbers, integers and p-adic integers), and more generally, residually finite algebras (in a strong sense), we prove the equivalence of two ways for a function on such an algebra to behave…
