Code clones are pairs of code snippets that implement similar functionality. Clone detection is a fundamental branch of automatic source code comprehension, having many applications in refactoring recommendation, plagiarism detection, and…
The celebrated quantum no-cloning theorem states that an arbitrary quantum state cannot be cloned perfectly. This raises questions about cloning of classical states, which have also attracted attention. Here, we present a physical approach…
The karyotype ontology describes the human chromosome complement as determined cytogenetically, and is designed as an initial step toward the goal of replacing the current system which is based on semantically meaningful strings. This…
We show that every finite semilattice can be represented as an atomized semilattice, an algebraic structure with additional elements (atoms) that extend the semilattice's partial order. Each atom maps to one subdirectly irreducible…
A scheme for the optimal Gaussian cloning of coherent light states at the light-atoms interface is proposed. The distinct feature of this proposal is that the clones are stored in an atomic quantum memory, which is important for…
We introduce an approach to quantum cloning based on spin networks and we demonstrate that phase covariant cloning can be realized using no external control but only with a proper design of the Hamiltonian of the system. In the 1 -> 2…
Let $\mathcal O$ be a holomorphy ring in a global field $K$, and $R$ a classical maximal $\mathcal O$-order in a central simple algebra over $K$. We study sets of lengths of factorizations of cancellative elements of $R$ into atoms…
We investigate when the clone of congruence preserving functions is finitely generated. We obtain a full description for all finite $p$-groups, and for all finite algebras with Mal'cev term and simple congruence lattice. The…
Finding structural similarities in graph data, like social networks, is a far-ranging task in data mining and knowledge discovery. A (conceptually) simple reduction would be to compute the automorphism group of a graph. However, this…
It is shown that the set of all finitary consequence operators defined on any nonempty language is a join-complete lattice. This result is applied to various collections of physical theories to obtain an unrestricted supremum unification.
The set of all subracks $\mathcal{R}(X)$ of a finite rack $X$ form a lattice under inclusion. We prove that if a rack $X$ satisfies a certain condition then the homotopy type of the order complex of $\mathcal{R}(X)$ is a $(m-2)$-sphere,…
We study pivotal decomposition schemes and investigate classes of pivotally decomposable operations. We provide sufficient conditions on pivotal operations that guarantee that the corresponding classes of pivotally decomposable operations…
We give an example of a finitely based locally finite variety which has uncountably many term clones. (Such varieties were known before.)
Unitally nondistributive quantales are unital quantales such that the unit is approximable by the totally below relation and does not meet-distribute over arbitrary joins. It is shown that the underlying nondistributive complete lattice…
A closure operator on a set $X$ is a function $\operatorname{cl}: \wp(X) \to \wp(X)$ satisfying, for all $A, B \subseteq X$, the following properties: extensivity, $A \subseteq \operatorname{cl}(A)$; monotonicity, which states that if $A…
Let I be a dense linear order with a left endpoint but no right endpoint. We consider the lattice L(I) of finite unions of closed intervals of I. This lattice arises naturally in the setting of o-minimality, as these are precisely the…
In this paper we show that if X is an infinite compactum cleavable over an ordinal, then X must be homeomorphic to an ordinal. X must also therefore be a LOTS. This answers two fundamental questions in the area of cleavability. We also…
Quantum cloning is a fundamental protocol of quantum information theory. Perfect universal quantum cloning is prohibited by the laws of quantum mechanics, only imperfect copies being reachable. Symmetric quantum cloning is concerned with…
We investigate the lattice I(n) of clones on the ring Z_n between the clone of polynomial functions and the clone of congruence preserving functions. The crucial case is when n is a prime power. For a prime p, the lattice I(p) is trivial…
In optical lattices where each site is occupied in its lowest energy state by a superposition of zero, one and two atoms, one can in a controllable manner convert the atomic pair into a molecule while retaining the vacuum and one-atom…
