A completeness conjecture is advanced concerning the free small-colimit completion P(A) of a (possibly large) category A. The conjecture is based on the existence of a small generating-cogenerating set of objects in A. We sketch how the…

A specialization semilattice is a join semilattice together with a coarser preorder $ \sqsubseteq $ satisfying an appropriate compatibility condition. If $X$ is a topological space, then $(\mathcal P(X), \cup, \sqsubseteq )$ is a…

Complemented lattices and uniquely complemented lattices are very important, not only in mathematics, but also in physics, biology, and even in social sciences. They have been investigated for a long time, especially by Huntington,…

An irredundant cover of a finite group $G$ is a collection of proper subgroups whose union is $G$ and which contains no smaller subcover. We classify finite groups which possess exactly two irredundant covers, thereby initiating an answer…

As the class of pseudocomplemented semilattices is a universal Horn class generated by a single finite structure it has a $\aleph_0$-categorical model companion. We will construct the countable existentially closed pseudocomplemented…

A finite non-degenerate set-theoretic solution $(X,r)$ of the Yang-Baxter equation gives rise to a structure skew brace $B(X,r)$ that is a $\lambda_f$-skew brace, i.e. every element has finitely many $\lambda$-images, and whose additive…

We consider irreducible representations of finite quandles over $\mathbb{C}$. For $Q$ a finite quandle whose inner automorphism group $Inn(Q)$ have trivial Schur multipliers, we prove that the irreducible representations of $Q$ can be…

In this paper we are interested in functionals defined on completely distributive lattices and which are invariant under mappings preserving {arbitrary} joins and meets. We prove that the class of nondecreasing invariant functionals…

The pair $(Q, \mathscr{K})$ is a {\it knowledge space} if $\bigcup\mathscr{K}=Q$ and $\mathscr{K}$ is closed under union, where $Q$ is a nonempty set and $\mathscr{K}$ is a family of subsets of $Q$. A knowledge space $(Q, \mathscr{K})$ is…

We initiate in this article the study of weakly exact structures, a generalization of Quillen exact structures. We introduce weak counterparts of one-sided exact structures and show that a left and a right weakly exact structure generate a…

A $\vee$-complement of a subgroup $H \leqslant \mathbb{F}_n$ is a subgroup $K \leqslant \mathbb{F}_n$ such that $H \vee K = \mathbb{F}_n$. If we also ask $K$ to have trivial intersection with $H$, then we say that $K$ is a…

If a class of finitely generated groups Curly(G) is closed under isometric amalgamations along free subgroups, then every G in Curly(G) can be quasi-isometrically embedded in a group Hat(G) in Curly(G) that has no proper subgroups of finite…

Let $\mathbf{F}=\left\langle F,R\right\rangle $ be a finite Kripke frame. A congruence of $\mathbf{F}$ is a bisimulation of $\mathbf{F}$ that is also an equivalence relation on F. The set of all congruences of $\mathbf{F}$ is a lattice…

A quandle is an algebraic system originated in knot theory, and can be regarded as a generalization of symmetric spaces. The inner automorphism group of a quandle is defined as the group generated by the point symmetries (right…

This paper studies two topics concerning on the orthogonal complement of one dimensional subspace with respect to a given quadratic form on a vector space over a number field. One is to determine the invariants for the isomorphism class of…

We capture in the context of lex colimits, introduced by Garner and Lack, the universal property of the free regular and Barr-exact completions of a weakly lex category. This is done by introducing a notion of flatness for functors…

We prove a conjecture of Przytycki which asserts that the $n$-quandle of a link $L$ in the 3-sphere is finite if and only if the fundamental group of the $n$-fold cyclic branched cover of the 3-sphere, branched over $L$, is finite.

We prove, via transfinite recursion, the existence, inside any linearly ordered set of appropriate regular cardinality $\lambda$, of a particular kind of well-ordered subsets characterized by the property of $\lambda$-fullness. Let $H$ be a…

Let I be a dense linear order with a left endpoint but no right endpoint. We consider the lattice L(I) of finite unions of closed intervals of I. This lattice arises naturally in the setting of o-minimality, as these are precisely the…

In their celebrated paper [Ramsey-Type Theorems, Discrete Appl. Math. 25 (1989) 37-52], Erd\H{o}s and Hajnal asked the following: is it true, that for any finite graph H there exists a constant c(H) such that for any finite graph G, if G…
