For a certain family of complete modular lattices, we prove a Jordan--H\"older--Scheier-like" theorem with no assumptions on cardinality or well-orderedness. This family includes both lattices which are both join- and meet-continuous, as…

We prove that symmetry in the presence of gravity implies a version of the completeness hypothesis. For a broad class of theories, we demonstrate that the existence of finitely many charged particles logically necessitates the existence of…

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…

We consider a sequence $\{f(p)\}_{p\ {\rm prime}}$ of independent random variables taking values $\pm 1$ with probability $1/2$, and extend $f$ to a multiplicative arithmetic function defined on the squarefree integers. We investigate upper…

We exhibit an explicit formula for the cardinality of solutions to a class of quadratic matrix equations over finite fields. We prove that the orbits of these solutions under the natural conjugation action of the general linear groups can…

Let $\J$ and $\K$ be convex sets in $\R^{n}$ whose affine spans intersect at a single rational point in $\J \cap \K$, and let $\J \oplus \K = \conv(\J \cup \K)$. We give formulas for the generating function {equation*} \sigma_{\cone(\J…

The free singularity locus of a noncommutative polynomial f is defined to be the sequence $Z_n(f)=\{X\in M_n^g : \det f(X)=0\}$ of hypersurfaces. The main theorem of this article shows that f is irreducible if and only if $Z_n(f)$ is…

A generating function of the number of homomorphisms from the fundamental group of a compact oriented or non-orientable surface without boundary into a finite group is obtained in terms of an integral over a real group algebra. We calculate…

J{\'o}nsson and Tarski's notion of the perfect extension of a Boolean algebra with operators has evolved into an extensive theory of canonical extensions of lattice-based algebras. After reviewing this evolution we make two contributions.…

A clone on a set X is a set of finitary operations on X which contains all the projections and is closed under composition. The set of all clones forms a complete lattice Cl(X) with greatest element O, the set of all finitary operations.…

Building on previous work by Lambert, Plagne and the third author, we study various aspects of the behavior of additive bases in infinite abelian groups and semigroups. We show that, for every infinite abelian group $T$, the number of…

We introduce a quantitative notion of lawlessness for finitely generated groups, encoded by the "lawlessness growth function" $\mathcal{A}_{\Gamma} : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$. We show that $\mathcal{A}_{\Gamma}$ is bounded iff…

We prove that an irreducible lattice acting on a product of two or more locally finite, biregular trees is finitely generated.

In this paper we shall consider the growth at infinity of a sequence $(P_n)$ of entire functions of bounded orders. Our results extend the results in \cite{trong-tuyen2} for the growth of entire functions of genus zero. Given a sequence of…

It is observed that the conjugacy growth series of the infinite finitary symmetric group with respect to the generating set of transpositions is the generating series of the partition function. Other conjugacy growth series are computed,…

We prove that the set of quadratic growths attainable by integer-valued superharmonic functions on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$ has the structure of an Apollonian circle packing. This completely characterizes the PDE which determines the…

The clone of term operations of an algebraic structure consists of all operations that can be expressed by a term in the language of the structure. We consider bounds for the length and the height of the terms expressing these functions,…

We show that for finite n at least 3, every first-order axiomatisation of the varieties of representable n-dimensional cylindric algebras, diagonal-free cylindric algebras, polyadic algebras, and polyadic equality algebras contains an…

We study the lattice of finite-index extensions of a given finitely generated subgroup $H$ of a free group $F$. This lattice is finite and we give a combinatorial characterization of its greatest element, which is the commensurator of $H$.…

For a finite group $G$, let $m_I(G)$ denote the largest possible cardinality of a minimal invariable generating set of $G$. We prove an upper and a lower bound for $m_I(S_n)$, which show in particular that $m_I(S_n)$ is asymptotic to $n/2$…
