We study the interplay between properties of measures on a Boolean algebra A and forcing names for ultrafilters on A. We show that several well known measure theoretic properties of Boolean algebras (such as supporting a strictly positive…

Using Koszmider's strongly unbounded functions, we show the following consistency result: Suppose that $\kappa,\lambda$ are infinite cardinals such that $\kappa^{+++} \leq \lambda$, $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$ and $2^{\kappa}= \kappa^+$, and…

A Boolean algebra $\A$ equipped with a (finitely-additive) positive probability measure $m$ can be turned into a metric space $(\A , d_{m})$, where $d_{m}(a,b)= m ((a\wedge\neg b)\vee(\neg a\wedge b))$, for any $a,b\in A$, sometimes…

We prove the following. Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring, $B$ a finitely generated $R$-algebra, and $A$ a pure $R$-subalgebra of $B$. Then $A$ is finitely generated over $R$.

We give characterizations of unital uniform topological algebras and saturated locally multiplicatively convex algebras by means of multiplicative linear functionals. Some automatic continuity theorems in advertibly complete uniform…

With a new proof approach we prove in a more general setting the classical convergence theorem that almost everywhere convergence of measurable functions on a finite measure space implies convergence in measure. Specifically, we generalize…

We prove general results about separation and weak$^\#$-convergence of boundedly finite measures on separable metric spaces and Souslin spaces. More precisely, we consider an algebra of bounded real-valued, or more generally a $*$-algebra…

A net $(x_\alpha)$ in an $f$-algebra $E$ is said to be multiplicative order convergent to $x\in E$ if $\x_\alpha-x\u\oc 0$ for all $u\in E_+$. In this paper, we introduce the notions $mo$-convergence, $mo$-Cauchy, $mo$-complete,…

Let $X$ be a locally compact topological space, $(Y,d)$ be a boundedly compact metric space and $LB(X,Y)$ be the space of all locally bounded functions from $X$ to $Y$. We characterize compact sets in $LB(X,Y)$ equipped with the topology of…

It is shown that there exists a complete, atomless, sigma-centered Boolean algebra, which does not contain any regular countable subalgebra if and only if there exist a nowhere dense ultrafilter. Therefore the existence of such algebras is…

It is unprovable that every complete subalgebra of a countably closed complete Boolean algebra is countably closed.

It is shown that the fixed point subalgebra of an EALA under a finite order automorphism (satisfying certain properties) is a sum of EALA's, an abelian subalgebra, and a subspace which is contained in the centralizer of the core.

A topological space $X$ is Baire if the intersection of any sequence of open dense subsets of $X$ is dense in $X$. One of the interesting problems for the space of Baire functions is the Banakh-Gabriyelyan problem: Let $\alpha$ be a…

Let A and B be two commutative semisimple Frechet algebras. We first give a characterization of the multiplier algebra of the direct sum of A and B. We then prove that A \oplus B is a BSE-algebra if and only if A and B are BSE-algebras.…

Boolean-type algebra (BTA) is investigated. A BTA is decomposed into Boolean-type lattice (BTL) and a complementation algebra (CA). When the object set is finite, the matrix expressions of BTL and CA (and then BTA) are presented. The…

In a metric space, such as the real numbers with their standard metric, a set A is open if and only if no sequence with terms outside of A has a limit inside A. Moreover, a metric space is compact if and only if every sequence has a…

It is known that if a subset of $\mathbb{R}$ has positive Lebesgue measure, then it contains arbitrarily long finite arithmetic progressions. We prove that this result does not extend to infinite arithmetic progressions in the following…

We introduce a very natural topology on the set of total orderings of monomials of any algebra having a countable basis over a field. This topological space and some notable subspaces are compact. This topological framework allows us to…

This note presents a general theorem about the cohomology of finite dimensional Lie algebras of arbitrary characteristic. As an application we compute the cohomology of the Borel subalgebra of sl(N).

A number of categories is presented that are algebraically complete and cocomplete, i.e., every endofunctor has an initial algebra and a terminal coalgebra. For all finitary (and, more generally, all precontinuous) set functors the initial…
