It is known that a lattice is representable as a ring of sets iff the lattice is distributive. CRL is the class of bounded distributive lattices (DLs) which have representations preserving arbitrary joins and meets. jCRL is the class of DLs…
We propose an assembly algorithm {\sc Barnacle} for sequences generated by the clone-based approach. We illustrate our approach by assembling the human genome. Our novel method abandons the original physical-mapping-first framework. As we…
$\omega$-clones are multi-sorted structures that naturally emerge as algebras for infinite trees, just as $\omega$-semigroups are convenient algebras for infinite words. In the algebraic theory of languages, one hopes that a language is…
We study notions of generic and coarse computability in the context of computable structure theory. Our notions are stratified by the $\Sigma_\beta$ hierarchy. We focus on linear orderings. We show that at the $\Sigma_1$ level all linear…
In this note, we discuss planar lattices generated by their atoms. We prove that if $L$ is a planar lattice generated by $n$ atoms, then both the left and the right boundaries of $L$ have at most $n+1$ elements. On the other hand, $L$ can…
We present two minimal clones containing 26 and 78 majority operations respectively, more than any other previously known example.
In comparing well-known CRDTs representing sets that can grow and shrink, we find caveats. In one, the removal of an element cannot be reliably undone. In another, undesirable states are attainable, such as when an element is present -1…
We develop a novel formal theory of finite structures, based on a view of finite structures as a fundamental artifact of computing and programming, forming a common platform for computing both within particular finite structures, and in the…
The countable condensation on a linear order $L$ is the equivalence relation $\sim_\omega$ defined by declaring $x \sim_\omega y$ when the set of points between $x$ and $y$ is countable. We characterize the linear orders $L$ that condense…
The notion of commutation of operations in universal algebra leads to the concept of centralizer clone and gives rise to a well-known class of problems that we call centralizer problems, in which one seeks to determine whether a given set…
This paper explores the interplay between category theory, topology, and the algebraic theory of finite groups. Our analysis unfolds in three stages. First, we establish the foundational universe of our objects: the complete and cocomplete…
Clustering is one of the most complex phenomena known to the structure of atomic nuclei. A comprehensive description of this ubiquitous phenomenon goes beyond standard shell model and cluster model frameworks. We argue that clustering is a…
We classify binary minimal clones into seven categories: affine algebras, rectangular bands, $p$-cyclic groupoids, spirals, non-Taylor partial semilattices, melds, and dispersive algebras. Each category has nice enough properties to…
In this article we give a simple, almost uniform proof that the lattice of noncrossing partitions associated with a well-generated complex reflection group is lexicographically shellable. So far a uniform proof is available only for Coxeter…
The No-Cloning property in Quantum Computation is known not to depend on the unitarity of the operators involved, but only on their linearity. Based on that fact, here it is shown that the No-Cloning property remains valid when Quantum…
The idea of this paper is to explore the existence of canonical countably saturated models for different classes of structures. It is well-known that, under CH, there exists a unique countably saturated linear order of cardinality…
A rack is a set with a binary operation such that left multiplications are automorphisms of the set and a quandle is a rack satisfying a certain condition. For a finite connected rack the cycle type of the permutation defined by left…
A family of quantum cluster algebras is introduced and studied. In general, these algebras are new, but subclasses have been studied previously by other authors. The algebras are indexed by double partitions or double flag varieties.…
In this paper, we study the posets of classes of subgroups of finite group having same set of orders of elements. We show that this poset is a chain only in the case of p-groups and moreover, we characterize all finite groups for which this…
Given the congruence lattice L of a finite algebra A with a Mal'cev term, we look for those sequences of operations on L that are sequences of higher commutator operations of expansions of A. The properties of higher commutators proved so…
