We classify $n$-representation infinite algebras $\Lambda$ of type \~A. This type is defined by requiring that $\Lambda$ has higher preprojective algebra $\Pi_{n+1}(\Lambda) \simeq k[x_1, \ldots, x_{n+1}] \ast G$, where $G \leq…
We investigate the possible origin of hierarchical structures in complex systems describable in terms of a finite and small number of parameters which control the behavioral pattern at each level of organization. We argue that the…
We establish the hierarchy among twelve equivalence relations (similarities) on the class of relational structures: the equality, the isomorphism, the equimorphism, the full relation, four similarities of structures induced by similarities…
We study structured optimization problems with polynomial objective function and polynomial equality constraints. The structure comes from a multi-grading on the polynomial ring in several variables. For fixed multi-degrees we determine the…
The poset of copies of a relational structure ${\mathbb X}$ is the partial order $\langle {\mathbb P} ({\mathbb X}) ,\subset \rangle$, where ${\mathbb P} ({\mathbb X})=\{ Y\subset X: {\mathbb Y} \cong {\mathbb X}\}$. Investigating the…
A first-order theory $T$ is a model-complete core theory if every first-order formula is equivalent modulo $T$ to an existential positive formula; the core companion of a theory $T$ is a model-complete core theory $S$ such that every model…
Let Omega be a quasisimple classical group in its natural representation over a finite vector space V, and let Delta be its normaliser in the general linear group. We construct the projection from Delta to Delta/Omega and provide fast,…
In the paper, we first classify all polynomial maps of the form $H=(u(x,y,z),v(x,y,z), h(x,y))$ in the case that $JH$ is nilpotent and $\deg_zv\leq 1$. After that, we generalize the structure of $H$ to…
An equivalence structure is a set with a single binary relation, satisfying sentences stating that the relation is an equivalence relation. A computable structure A is said to be $\Delta^0_\alpha$ categorical if for any computable structure…
For an algebraic number $\alpha$ of degree $n$, let $\mathcal{M}_{\alpha}$ be the $\mathbb{Z}$-module generated by $1,\alpha ,\ldots ,\alpha^{n-1}$; then $\mathbb{Z}_{\alpha}:=\{\xi\in\mathbb{Q} (\alpha ):\,…
We obtain a computable structure of Scott rank omega_1^{CK} (call this ock), and give a general coding procedure that transforms any hyperarithmetical structure A into a computable structure A' such that the rank of A is ock, ock+1, or <…
In earlier work we gave a characterisation of pregeometries which are `basic' (that is, admit no `non-degenerate' quotients) relative to two different kinds of quotient operations, namely imprimitive quotients and normal quotients. Each…
We study an abstract notion of tree structure which lies at the common core of various tree-like discrete structures commonly used in combinatorics: trees in graphs, order trees, nested subsets of a set, tree-decompositions of graphs and…
For a countable, complete, first-order theory $T$, we study $At$, the class of atomic models of $T$. We develop an analogue of $U$-rank and prove two results. On one hand, if some tp(d/a) is not ranked, then there are $2^{\aleph_1}$…
We describe four natural operad structures on the vector space generated by isomorphism classes of finite posets. The three last ones are set-theoretical and can be seen as a simplified version of the first, the same way the NAP operad…
We show that for any $k$ at least $6$ and $g$ sufficiently large, the mapping class group of a surface of genus $g$ can be generated by three elements of order $k$. We also show that this can be done with four elements of order $5$. We…
This work gives a classification of imprimitive irreducible finite subgroups of the orthogonal group O(7) plus the number of conjugate classes for each group.
For each countable ordinal $\alpha$, we introduce an ideal $conv_\alpha$ and use it to characterize the class of all compact countable spaces which are homeomorphic to the space $\omega^{\alpha}\cdot n+1$ with the order topology. The…
We investigate characterizations of the Galois connection sInv-Aut between sets of finitary relations on a base set A and their automorphisms. In particular, for A=omega_1, we construct a countable set R of relations that is closed under…
We give an example of an omega-categorical group without AZ-enumerations. We build AZ-enumerations of some omega-categorical central products of countably many copies of a finite 2-step nilpotent group.
