We characterize the idempotent stable range one $2\times 2$ matrices over commutative rings and in particular, the integral matrices with this property. Several special cases and examples complete the subject.
Relative smoothness and strong convexity have recently gained considerable attention in optimization. These notions are generalizations of the classical Euclidean notions of smoothness and strong convexity that are known to be dual to each…
The theory of Topological Modular Forms suggests the existence of deformation invariants for two-dimensional supersymmetric field theories that are more refined than the standard elliptic genus. In this note we give a physical definition of…
Just as binary relations between sets may be understood as jointly monic spans, so too may equivalence relations on the disjoint union of sets be understood as jointly epic cospans. With the ensuing notion of composition inherited from the…
It is elementary and well-known that if an element x of a bounded modular lattice L has a complement in L then x has a relative complement in every interval [a,b] containing x. We show that the relatively strong assumption of modularity of…
We construct a recursive formula for a complete system of primitive orthogonal idempotents for any $R$-trivial monoid. This uses the newly proved equivalence between the notions of $R$-trivial monoid and weakly ordered monoid.
The purpose of this paper is to study the notion of relative extreme amenability for pairs of topological groups. We give a characterization by a fixed point property on universal spaces. In addition we introduce the concepts of an…
We give a short proof, using profinite techniques, that idempotent pointlikes, stable pairs and triples are decidable for the pseudovariety of aperiodic monoids. Stable pairs are also described for the pseudovariety of all finite monoids.
This paper suggests an algebraic version of the theorem on the existence of eigenvectors for linear operators in abstract idempotent spaces. Earlier, the theorem on the existence of eigenvectors was only known for the cases of a free…
In this paper we extend the notion of a Lorentz cone. We call a closed convex set isotone projection set with respect to a pointed closed convex cone if the projection onto the set is isotone (i.e., monotone) with respect to the order…
In this paper we analyze the geometric structure and properties of a certain class of subsets of $\Bbb R^d$, known in the literature as 1-multicones, and here simply called multicones, which are quite natural generalizations of the…
Consider a monad on an idempotent complete triangulated category with the property that its Eilenberg-Moore category of modules inherits a triangulation. We show that any other triangulated adjunction realizing this monad is 'essentially…
Valuation based systems verifying an idempotent property are studied. A partial order is defined between the valuations giving them a lattice structure. Then, two different strategies are introduced to represent valuations: as infimum of…
We categorify the adjunction between locales and topological spaces, this amounts to an adjunction between (generalized) bounded ionads and topoi. We show that the adjunction is idempotent. We relate this adjunction to the Scott adjunction,…
One way of interpreting a left Kan extension is as taking a kind of "partial colimit", whereby one replaces parts of a diagram by their colimits. We make this intuition precise by means of the "partial evaluations" sitting in the so-called…
We study a notion of potential isomorphism, where two structures are said to be potentially isomorphic if they are isomorphic in some generic extension that preserves stationary sets and does not add new sets of cardinality less than the…
We construct a category equivalent to the category $\mathbf{Mon}$ of monoids and monoid homomorphisms, based on categories with strict factorization systems. This equivalence is then extended to the category $\mathbf{Mon_s}$ of unital…
We define relative support varieties with respect to some fixed module over a finite dimensional algebra. These varieties share many of the standard properties of classical support varieties. Moreover, when introducing finite generation…
This is the first part of a series of three strongly related papers in which three equivalent structures are studied: - internal categories in categories of monoids; defined in terms of pullbacks relative to a chosen class of spans -…
In these notes we develop some basic theory of idempotents in monoidal categories. We introduce and study the notion of a pair of complementary idempotents in a triangulated monoidal category, as well as more general idempotent…
