The main aim of this paper is to study aggregation functions on lattices via clone theory approach. Observing that the aggregation functions on lattices just correspond to $0,1$-monotone clones, as the main result we show that for any…
We investigate the lattice of clones that are generated by a set of functions that are induced on a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ by monomials. We study the atoms and coatoms of this lattice and investigate whether this lattice contains…
Given a bounded lattice $L$ with bounds $0$ and $1$, it is well known that the set $\mathsf{Pol}_{0,1}(L)$ of all $0,1$-preserving polynomials of $L$ forms a natural subclass of the set $\mathsf{C}(L)$ of aggregation functions on $L$. The…
We show that the class of all aggregation functions on $[0,1]$ can be generated as a composition of infinitary sup-operation $\bigvee$ acting on sets with cardinality not exceeding $\mathfrak{c}$, $b$-medians $\mathsf{Med}_b$, $b\in[0,1[$,…
A clone on a set X is a set of finitary operations on X which contains all projections and which is moreover closed under functional composition. Ordering all clones on X by inclusion, one obtains a complete algebraic lattice, called the…
In this paper we study structural properties of residuated lattices that are idempotent as monoids. We provide descriptions of the totally ordered members of this class and obtain counting theorems for the number of finite algebras in…
We investigate finitary functions from $\mathbb{Z}_{pq}$ to $\mathbb{Z}_{pq}$ for two distinct prime numbers $p$ and $q$. We show that the lattice of all clones on the set $\mathbb{Z}_{pq}$ which contain the addition of $\mathbb{Z}_{pq}$ is…
We investigate when the clone of congruence preserving functions is finitely generated. We obtain a full description for all finite $p$-groups, and for all finite algebras with Mal'cev term and simple congruence lattice. The…
The question of classifying the nature of the generating functions of restricted lattice walks has enjoyed much attention in past years. We prove that a certain class of octant walks have a D-finite generating function using the theory of…
We determine all composition-closed equational classes of Boolean functions. These classes provide a natural generalization of clones and iterative algebras: they are closed under composition, permutation and identification…
We study centralizer clones of finite lattices and semilattices. For semilattices, we give two characterizations of the centralizer and also derive formulas for the number of operations of a given essential arity in the centralizer. We also…
We investigate finitary functions from $\mathbb{Z}_{n}$ to $\mathbb{Z}_{n}$ for a squarefree number $n$. We show that the lattice of all clones on the squarefree set $\mathbb{Z}_{p_1\cdots p_m}$ which contain the addition of…
Let X be an infinite set of regular cardinality. We determine all clones on X which contain all almost unary functions. It turns out that independently of the size of X, these clones form a countably infinite descending chain. Moreover, all…
We outline the theory of sets with distributive operations: multishelves and multispindles, with examples provided by semi-lattices, lattices and skew lattices. For every such a structure we define multi-term distributive homology and show…
We characterize commutative idempotent involutive residuated lattices as disjoint unions of Boolean algebras arranged over a distributive lattice. We use this description to introduce a new construction, called gluing, that allows us to…
Let G be a connected, semisimple Lie group with finite center and let K be a maximal compact subgroup. We investigate a method to compute multiplicities of K-types in the discrete series using a rational expression for a generating function…
We study functional clones, which are sets of non-negative pseudo-Boolean functions (functions $\{0,1\}^k\to\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}$) closed under (essentially) multiplication, summation and limits. Functional clones naturally form a lattice…
We show that a recent identity of Beck-Gessel-Lee-Savage on the generating function of symmetrically contrained compositions of integers generalizes naturally to a family of convex polyhedral cones that are invariant under the action of a…
We give a direct construction of a specific idempotent in the endomorphism algebra of a finite lattice $T$. This idempotent is associated with all possible sublattices of $T$ which are total orders.
A solution is proposed for the problem of composition of ordinary generating functions. A new class of functions that provides a composition of ordinary generating functions is introduced; main theorems are presented; compositae are written…
