UNIFORM algebras have been extensively investigated because of their importance in the theory of uniform approximation and as examples of complex Banach algebras. An interesting question is whether analogous algebras exist when a complete…

We call a finitely complete category algebraically coherent when the change-of-base functors of its fibration of points are coherent, which means that they preserve finite limits and jointly strongly epimorphic pairs of arrows. We give…

We complete the foundational architecture of Algebraic Phase Theory by developing a categorical and $2$-categorical framework for algebraic phases. Building on the structural notions introduced in Papers~I-III, we define phase morphisms,…

In 2005, Abramsky introduced various linear/affine combinatory algebras of partial involutions over a suitable formal language, to discuss reversible computation in a game-theoretic setting. These algebras arise as instances of the general…

This paper provides an overview of Lawvere's Fixed-Point Theorem in category theory and aims to detail the universal framework underlying self-reference and recursive structures. First, we rigorously define fundamental concepts - such as…

Approximation Fixpoint Theory (AFT) is an algebraic framework designed to study the semantics of non-monotonic logics. Despite its success, AFT is not readily applicable to higher-order definitions. To solve such an issue, we devise a…

We introduce the subject of modal model theory, where one studies a mathematical structure within a class of similar structures under an extension concept that gives rise to mathematically natural notions of possibility and necessity. A…

Linear algebra computations are foundational for neural networks and machine learning, often handled through arrays. While many functional programming languages feature lists and recursion, arrays in linear algebra demand constant-time…

We propound the thesis that there is a limitation to the number of possible structures which are axiomatically endowed with identities involving operations. In the case of algebras with a binary operation satisfying a formally reducible (to…

Assume that a basic algebra $A$ over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ with a basic set $A_0$ of primitive idempotents has the property that $eAe=\Bbbk$ for all $e \in A_0$. Let $n$ be a nonzero integer, and $\phi$ and $\psi$ two…

If $\phi$ is an analytic selfmap of the disk (not an elliptic automorphism) the Denjoy-Wolff Theorem predicts the existence of a point $p$ with $|p|\leq 1$ such that the iterates $\phi_{n}$ converge to $p$ uniformly on compact subsets of…
