We solve a long standing open problem concerning the structure of finite cycles in the category mod A of finitely generated modules over an arbitrary artin algebra A, that is, the chains of homomorphisms $M_0 \stackrel{f_1}{\rightarrow} M_1…
Infinite types and formulas are known to have really curious and unsound behaviors. For instance, they allow to type {\Omega}, the auto- autoapplication and they thus do not ensure any form of normalization/productivity. Moreover, in most…
This paper explores the interplay between category theory, topology, and the algebraic theory of finite groups. Our analysis unfolds in three stages. First, we establish the foundational universe of our objects: the complete and cocomplete…
We say that a topological space X is selectively sequentially pseudocompact (SSP for short) if for every sequence (U_n) of non-empty open subsets of X, one can choose a point x_n in U_n for every n in such a way that the sequence (x_n) has…
The conventional definition of extremality of a finite collection of sets is extended by replacing a fixed point (extremal point) in the intersection of the sets by a collection of sequences of points in the individual sets with the…
We show that descriptive complexity's result extends in High Order Logic to capture the expressivity of Turing Machine which have a finite number of alternation and whose time or space is bounded by a finite tower of exponential. Hence we…
We study abstract elementary classes (AECs) that, in $\aleph_0$, have amalgamation, joint embedding, no maximal models and are stable (in terms of the number of orbital types). Assuming a locality property for types, we prove that such…
In this paper, we investigate the structures of an extremal tree which has the minimal number of subtrees in the set of all trees with the given degree sequence of a tree. In particular, the extremal trees must be caterpillar and but in…
The joint spectral radius of a bounded set of $d \times d$ real matrices is defined to be the maximum possible exponential growth rate of products of matrices drawn from that set. For a fixed set of matrices, a sequence of matrices drawn…
We show that bounded type implies finite type for a constructible subcategory of the module category of a finitely generated algebra over a field, which is a variant of the first Brauer-Thrall conjecture. A full subcategory is constructible…
Finite topological spaces are in bijective correspondence with preorders on finite sets. We undertake their study using combinatorial tools that have been developed to investigate general discrete structures. A particular emphasis will be…
Let $\Lambda$ be a basic finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field, presented as a path algebra modulo relations; further, assume that $\Lambda$ is graded by lengths of paths. The paper addresses the classifiability, via…
We give a presentation theorem for continuous first-order logic and Metric Abstract Elementary classes in terms of $L_{\omega_1, \omega}$ and Abstract Elementary Classes, respectively. This presentation is accomplished by analyzing dense…
We consider epimorphisms and several variant notions -- split, effective, regular, strong, and extremal -- and determine which of these coincide in the metric coarse and coarsely Lipschitz categories. In particular, we characterise extremal…
There exist two known canonical types of ultrafilter extensions of first-order models; one comes from modal logic and universal algebra, another one from model theory and algebra of ultrafilters, with ultrafilter extensions of semigroups as…
We initiate the study of model structures on (categories induced by) lattice posets, a subject we dub homotopical combinatorics. In the case of a finite total order $[n]$, we enumerate all model structures, exhibiting a rich combinatorial…
Given a commutative ring R (respectively a positively graded commutative ring $A=\ps_{j\geq 0}A_j$ which is finitely generated as an A_0-algebra), a bijection between the torsion classes of finite type in Mod R (respectively tensor torsion…
We give a definition of finitary type theories that subsumes many examples of dependent type theories, such as variants of Martin-L\"of type theory, simple type theories, first-order and higher-order logics, and homotopy type theory. We…
The paper proposes another extension of the extremal principle. A new extremality model involving collections of arbitrary families of sets is studied. It generalizes the conventional model based on linear translations of given sets as well…
Given a first-order theory $T$ formulated in the usual language of first-order arithmetic, we say that $T$ is of *restricted complexity* if there is some natural number $n$ and some set $\mathcal A$ of $\Sigma_n$-sentences such that $T$ can…
