A finite-dimensional unital and associative algebra over $\mathbb{R}$, or what we shall call simply "an algebra" in this paper for short, generalities the construction by which we derive the complex numbers by "adjoining an element $i$" to…

We first prove that for every metrizable space $X$, for every closed subset $F$ whose complement is zero-dimensional, the space $X$ can be embedded into a product space of the closed subset $F$ and a metrizable zero-dimensional space as a…

For every partial combinatory algebra (pca) $A$ and every partial endofunction on $A$, a pca $A[f]$ is constructed such that in $A[f]$, the function $f$ is representable by an element; a universal property of the construction is formulated…

In these lectures we study some possible higher order (of degree greater than two) extensions of the Poincar\'e algebra. We first give some general properties of Lie superalgebras with some emphasis on the supersymmetric extension of the…

We extend the theory of tensor products of C*-algebras to the larger category of Fell bundles over locally compact groups. We prove that, like in the case of C*-algebras, there exist maximal and minimal tensor products. Given two Fell…

We introduce the notion of a bicocycle double cross product (resp. sum) Lie group (resp. Lie algebra), and a bicocycle double cross product bialgebra, generalizing the unified products. On the level of Lie groups the construction yields a…

We propose reductions to quantified Boolean formulas (QBF) as a new approach to showing fixed-parameter linear algorithms for problems parameterized by treewidth. We demonstrate the feasibility of this approach by giving new algorithms for…

We construct a countable simple theory which, in Keisler's order, is strictly above the random graph (but "barely so") and also in some sense orthogonal to the building blocks of the recently discovered infinite descending chain. As a…

Let $\mathcal A$ be an $\mathbb F$-algebra and let $\mathcal S$ be its generating set. The length of $\mathcal S$ is the smallest number $k$ such that $\mathcal A$ equals the $\mathbb F$-linear span of all products of length at most $k$ of…

The parastatistics Fock spaces of order $p$ corresponding to an infinite number of parafermions and parabosons with relative paraboson relations are constructed. The Fock spaces are lowest weight representations of the $Z_2 \times…

The pcf theorem (of the possible cofinality theory) was proved for reduced products prod_{i< kappa} lambda_i/I, where kappa < min_{i< kappa} lambda_i. Here we prove this theorem under weaker assumptions such as wsat(I)< min_{i< kappa}…

In this paper we study the lengths of certain chains of subalgebras of a Lie algebra L: namely, a chief series, a maximal chain of minimal length, a chain of maximal length in which each subalgebra is modular in L, and a chain of maximal…

We describe how noncommutative function algebras built from noncommutative functions in the sense of \cite{K-VV2014} may be studied as subalgebras of homogeneous $C^{*}$-algebras.

We study several families of semisimple Hopf algebras, arising as bismash products, which are constructed from finite groups with a certain specified factorization. First we associate a bismash product $H_q$ of dimension $q(q-1)(q+1)$ to…

In this note, we developed several results concerning abelian von Neumann algebras, their spectrums, and their tensor products with other von Neumann algebras. In particular, we developed a theory connecting elements of the spectrum of…

We interpret several constructions with C*-algebras as colimits in the bicategory of correspondences. This includes crossed products for actions of groups and crossed modules, Cuntz-Pimsner algebras of proper product systems, direct sums…

We prove that assuming suitable cardinal arithmetic, if B is a Boolean algebra every homomorphic image of which is isomorphic to a factor, then B has locally small density. We also prove that for an (infinite) Boolean algebra B, the number…

We study properties of C*-algebras obtained from the nonstandard hull construction (a generalization of the ultraproduct of C*-algebras). Among others, we prove that the properties of being an infinite and a properly infinite C*-algebra are…

We compute the lengths of two particular cases of (possibly non-unital) composition algebras, namely, standard composition algebras and Okubo algebras over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. These results finish the complete description of…

We characterize the situation of small cardinality for a product of cardinals divided by an ultrafilter. We develop the notion of weak normality. We include an application to Boolean Algebras.
