Transformation coefficients between standard bases for irreducible representations of the Brauer centralizer algebra $\mathfrak{B}_f(x)$ and split bases adapted to the $\mathfrak{B}_{f_1} (x) \times \mathfrak{B}_{f_2} (x) \subset…
Classical algebraic structures require exact satisfaction of their defining axioms. We propose similarity algebra, a framework extending algebraic and Lie structures to settings where operations satisfy quantitative bounds up to a tolerance…
It is known that by using the commutator operation, for each congruence modular algebra $A$ one can define a notion of prime congruence. The set $Spec(A)$ of prime congruences of $A$ is endowed with a Zariski style topology. The…
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…
In this article, we investigate the status of the homomorphism preservation property amongst restricted classes of finite relational structures and algebraic structures. We show that there are many homomorphism-closed classes of finite…
Necessary and sufficient conditions are presented for the (first-order) theory of a universal class of algebraic structures (algebras) to admit a model completion, extending a characterization provided by Wheeler. For varieties of algebras…
The Congruence Lattice Problem asks whether every algebraic distributive lattice is isomorphic to the congruence lattice of a lattice. It was hoped that a positive solution would follow from E. T. Schmidt's construction or from the approach…
Detecting and exploiting similarities between seemingly distant objects is without doubt an important human ability. This paper develops \textit{from the ground up} an abstract algebraic and qualitative notion of similarity based on the…
Characterizing derived equivalences between algebras via combinatorial structures has recently become a popular topic. In this paper, we study admissible fractional Brauer graph algebras, a new subclass of self-injective special biserial…
We extend the clique-coclique inequality, previously known to hold for graphs in association schemes and vertex-transitive graphs, to graphs in homogeneous coherent configurations and 1-walk regular graphs. We further generalize it to a…
We investigate the representation of lattices as sublattices of the lattice of all convex subsets (intervals) of a linearly ordered set $(X,\le)$. We introduce the purely lattice-theoretic notion of a \textit{loc-lattice} and prove that…
P\l onka sums consist of a general construction that provides structural description for algebras in regularized varieties, whose examples range from Clifford semigroups to many algebras of logic including involutive bisemilattices, Bochvar…
We establish a direct correspondence between two congruence poroperties for finite algebras. The first property is that minimal sets of type i omit tails. The second property is that congruence lattices omit pentagons of type i.
In this paper we study prime, maximal and two--class congruences from the point of view of the relationships between them in various kinds of universal algebras, as well as their direct and inverse images through morphisms. This research…
We study the category of algebras of substitudes (also known to be equivalent to the regular patterns of Getzler) equipped with a (semi)model structure lifted from the model structure on the underlying presheaves. We are especially…
In this paper, we generalise part of the theory of hereditary algebras to the context of prospecies of algebras. Here, a prospecies is a generalisation of Gabriel's concept of species gluing algebras via projective bimodules along a quiver…
This paper studies absolute retracts in congruence modular varieties of universal algebras. It is shown that every absolute retract with finite dimensional congruence lattice is a product of subdirectly irreducible algebras. Further, every…
We identify the simple algebraic groups over number fields that are, in a suitable sense, determined by their finite adele points. Assuming CSP and Grothendieck rigidity, our results essentially characterize higher rank arithmetic groups…
We study the congeniality property of algebras, as defined by Bao, He, and Zhang, in order to establish a version of Auslander's theorem for various families of filtered algebras. It is shown that the property is preserved under homomorphic…
The symmetric difference in Boolean lattices can be defined in two different but equivalent forms. However, it can be introduced also in every bounded lattice with complementation where these two forms need not coincide. We study lattices…
