We establish two duality theorems which refine the classical Stone duality between generalized Boolean algebras and locally compact Boolean spaces. In the first theorem we prove that the category of left-handed skew Boolean algebras whose…

We construct symplectic structures on roughly half of all equal rank biquotients of the form $G//T$, where $G$ is a compact simple Lie group and $T$ a torus, and investigate Hamiltonian Lie group actions on them. For the Eschenburg flag,…

In this paper, a question due to Heckenberger, Shareshian and Welker on racks in [7] is positively answered. A rack is a set together with a selfdistributive bijective binary operation. We show that the lattice of subracks of every finite…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a conjugacy class of involutions in a group $G$. We study the graph $\Gamma(\mathcal{C})$ whose vertices are elements of $\mathcal{C}$ with $g,h\in\mathcal{C}$ connected by an edge if and only if $gh\in\mathcal{C}$. For…

In this article, motivated by the study of symplectic structures on manifolds with boundary and the systematic study of $b$-symplectic manifolds started in [12], we prove a slice theorem for Lie group actions on $b$-symplectic manifolds.

Let $G$ be a symplectic or special orthogonal group, let $H$ be a connected reductive subgroup of $G$, and let $X$ be a flag variety of $G$. We classify all triples $(G,H,X)$ such that the natural action of $H$ on $X$ is spherical. For each…

Using Ohkawa's theorem that the collection of Bousfield classes is a set, we perform a number of constructions with Bousfield classes. In particular, we describe a greatest lower bound operator; we also note that a certain subset DL of the…

Although algebraic structures are frequently analyzed using unary and binary operations, they can also be effectively defined and unified through ternary operations. In this context, we introduce structures that contain two constants and a…

Let S be a set of states of a physical system. The probabilities p(s) of the occurrence of an event when the system is in different states s of S define a function from S to [0,1] called a numerical event or, more accurately, an…

We first extend the notion of connection in the context of Courant algebroids to obtain a new characterization of generalized Kaehler geometry. We then establish a new notion of isomorphism between holomorphic Poisson manifolds, which is…

For a large class of tilings, including the Penrose tiling in two dimension as well as the icosahedral ones in 3 dimension, the continuous hull of such a tiling inherits a minimal lamination structure with flat leaves and a transversal…

For a smooth (locally trivial) principal bundle in Ehresmann's sense, the relation between the commuting vertical and horizontal actions of the structural Lie group and the structural Lie groupoid (isomorphisms between vertical fibers) is…

We construct a completely normal bounded distributive lattice D in which for every pair (a, b) of elements, the set {x $\in$ D | a $\le$ b $\lor$ x} has a countable coinitial subset, such that D does not carry any binary operation -…

Every partial algebra is the colimit of its total subalgebras. We prove this result for partial Boolean algebras (including orthomodular lattices) and the new notion of partial C*-algebras (including noncommutative C*-algebras), and…

Building on recent work of Robertson and Steger, we associate a C*-algebra to a combinatorial object which may be thought of as a higher rank graph. This C*-algebra is shown to be isomorphic to that of the associated path groupoid.…

Motivated by Kalman residuated lattices, Nelson residuated lattices and Nelson paraconsistent residuated lattices, we provide a natural common generalization of them. Nelson conucleus algebras unify these examples and further extend them to…

The study of automorphisms of computable and other structures connects computability theory with classical group theory. Among the noncomputable countable structures, computably enumerable structures are one of the most important objects of…

The tree share structure proposed by Dockins et al. is an elegant model for tracking disjoint ownership in concurrent separation logic, but decision procedures for tree shares are hard to implement due to a lack of a systematic theoretical…

We present a simple approach to questions of topological orbit equivalence for actions of countable groups on topological and smooth manifolds. For example, for any action of a countable group $\Gamma$ on a topological manifold where the…

Let $T$ be a locally finite tree all of whose vertices have valency at least $6$. We classify, up to isomorphism, the closed subgroups of $\mathrm{Aut}(T)$ acting $2$-transitively on the set of ends of $T$ and whose local action at each…
