A random vector $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ with the $X_i$ taking values in an arbitrary measurable space $(S, \mathscr{S})$ is exchangeable if its law is the same as that of $(X_{\sigma(1)}, \ldots, X_{\sigma(n)})$ for any permutation $\sigma$.…
Birkhoff's representation theorem for finite distributive lattices states that any finite distributive lattice is isomorphic to the lattice of order ideals (lower sets) of the partial order of the join-irreducible elements of the lattice.…
We introduce a new method for showing that the roots of the characteristic polynomial of certain finite lattices are all nonnegative integers. This method is based on the notion of a quotient of a poset which will be developed to explain…
A lifting of a semilattice S is an algebra A such that the semilattice of compact (=finitely generated) congruences of A is isomorphic to S. The aim of this work is to give a categorical theory of partial algebras endowed with a partial…
In this article, we prove that finite semidistributive lattices are dismantlable if and only if they are planar. This extends a well-known result by Kelly and Rival that states the same property for finite distributive lattices. Moreover,…
In 2022, Defant and Kravitz introduced extended promotion (denoted $\partial$), a map that acts on the set of labelings of a poset. Extended promotion is a generalization of Sch\"{u}tzenberger's promotion operator, a well-studied map that…
We show that the set of all measures on any measurable space is a complete lattice, i.e. every collection of measures has both a greatest lower bound and a least upper bound.
This note is a follow-up to \cite{bt}. We focus on conditions under which a normed lattice $X$ is majorizing in its norm completion. We show that \cite[Question 8.17]{bt} -- namely, whether this holds whenever every norm-null sequence in…
We construct a diagram D, indexed by a finite partially ordered set, of finite Boolean semilattices and (v,0,1)-embeddings, with top semilattice $2^4$, such that for any variety V of algebras, if D has a lifting, with respect to the…
For every integer $n$ with $n \geq 6$, we prove that the Boolean dimension of a poset consisting of all the subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ equipped with the inclusion relation is strictly less than $n$.
In the study of algebras related to non-classical logics, (distributive) semilattices are always present in the background. For example, the algebraic semantic of the $\{\rightarrow,\wedge,\top\}$-fragment of intuitionistic logic is the…
Discrete partially ordered sets can be turned into distance spaces in several ways. The distance functions may or may not satisfy the triangle inequality, and restriction of the distance to finite chains may or may not coincide with the…
We consider two sequences of orthogonal polynomials $(P_n)_{n\geq 0}$ and $(Q_n)_{n\geq 0}$ with respect regular functionals ${\bf u}$ and ${\bf v}$, respectively. We assume that $$\sum_{j=1} ^{M} a_{j,n}\mathrm{D}_x ^k P_{k+n-j}…
We give the asymptotic behavior of the zeros of orthogonal polynomials, after appropriate scaling, for which the orthogonality measure is supported on the $q$-lattice $\{q^k, k=0,1,2,3,\ldots\}$, where $0 < q < 1$. The asymptotic…
Measure and integral are two closely related, but distinct objects of study. Nonetheless, they are both real-valued lattice valuations: order preserving real-valued functions $\phi$ on a lattice $L$ which are modular, i.e.,…
Motivated by quite recent research involving the relationship between the dimension of a poset and graph-theoretic properties of its cover graph, we show that for every $d\geq 1$, if $P$ is a poset and the dimension of a subposet $B$ of $P$…
We define and study "semimatroids", a class of objects which abstracts the dependence properties of an affine hyperplane arrangement. We show that geometric semilattices are precisely the posets of flats of semimatroids. We define and…
This paper deals with the asymptotic statistical properties of a class of redescending M-estimators in linear models with increasing dimension. This class is wide enough to include popular high breakdown point estimators such as…
We prove a transfer theorem which, when combined with the Jaffard-Kaplansky-Ohm Theorem, allows results in model theory of modules over B\'ezout domains to be translated into results over Pr\"ufer domains via their value groups. Extending…
A simple condition is given that is sufficient to determine whether a measure that is absolutely continuous with respect to a Gau{\ss}ian measure on the space of distributions is reflection positive. It readily generalises conventional…
