Let G be a group and let A be the algebra of complex functions on G with finite support. The product in G gives rise to a coproduct on A making it a multiplier Hopf algebra. In fact, because there exist integrals, we get an algebraic…
All ultrafilters under consideration here are non-principal ultrafilters on the set omega of natural numbers. We are concerned with the possible cofinalities of ultrapowers of omega with respect to such ultrafilters. We show that no…
We study several bialgebraic structures on boolean functions, that is to say maps defined on the set of subsets of a finite set $X$, taking the value $0$ on $\emptyset$. Examples of boolean functions are given by the indicator function of…
We prove upper and lower bounds for all the coefficients in the Hilbert Polynomial of a graded Gorenstein algebra $S=R/I$ with a quasi-pure resolution over $R$. The bounds are in terms of the minimal and the maximal shifts in the resolution…
We characterize supramenable groups in terms of existence of invariant probability measures for partial actions on compact Hausdorff spaces and existence of tracial states on partial crossed products. These characterizations show that, in…
Over finite fields, if the image of a polynomial map is not the entire field, then its cardinality can be bounded above by a significantly smaller value. Earlier results bound the cardinality of the value set using the degree of the…
We study (non-abelian) extensions of a given super Lie algebra, identify a cohomological obstruction to the existence, parallel to the known one for Lie algebras. An analogy to the setting of covariant exterior derivatives, curvature, and…
We study a relationship between the ultraproduct of a crossed product von Neumann algebra and the crossed product of an ultraproduct von Neumann algebra. As an application, the continuous core of an ultraproduct von Neumann algebra is…
Monk asks (problems 13, 15 in his list; pi is the algebraic density):''For a Boolean algebra B, aleph_0 <= theta <= pi (B), does B have a subalgebra B' with pi (B')= theta ?'' If theta is regular the answer is easily positive, we show that…
Usually when we have polyadic-like algebras, meaning that we have infinitary substitutions (that is substitutions moving infinitely many points) in the similarity type, then we get the superamalgamation property especially if this class of…
If A is a graded connected algebra then we define a new invariant, polydepth A, which is finite if $Ext_A^*(M,A) \neq 0$ for some A-module M of at most polynomial growth. Theorem 1: If f : X \to Y is a continuous map of finite category, and…
A finite Blaschke product, restricted to the unit circle, is a smooth covering map. The maximum and minimum values of the derivative of this map reflect the geometry of the Blaschke product. We identify two classes of extremal Blaschke…
The notion of overlap algebra introduced by G. Sambin provides a constructive version of complete Boolean algebra. Here we first show some properties concerning overlap algebras: we prove that the notion of overlap morphism corresponds…
The C*-algebra of bounded operators on the separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space cannot be mapped to a W*-algebra in such a way that each unital commutative C*-subalgebra C(X) factors normally through $\ell^\infty(X)$. Consequently,…
We investigate the possibility of the existence of nonsparse strongly summable ultrafilters on certain abelian groups. In particular, we show that every strongly summable ultrafilter on the countably infinite Boolean group is sparse. This…
In this paper we improve the level and sublevel of algebras obtained by the Cayley-Dickson process when their level and sublevel are greater than dimension of the algebras.
A pseudo-Galois extension is shown to be a depth two extension. Studying its left bialgebroid, we construct an enveloping Hopf algebroid for the semi-direct product of groups, or more generally involutive Hopf algebras, and their module…
The deformation bicomplex of a module-algebra over a bialgebra is constructed. It is then applied to study algebraic deformations in which both the module structure and the algebra structure are deformed. The cases of module-coalgebras,…
A first-order expansion of the $\mathbb{R}$-vector space structure on $\mathbb{R}$ does not define every compact subset of every $\mathbb{R}^n$ if and only if topological and Hausdorff dimension coincide on all closed definable sets.…
J{\'o}nsson and Tarski's notion of the perfect extension of a Boolean algebra with operators has evolved into an extensive theory of canonical extensions of lattice-based algebras. After reviewing this evolution we make two contributions.…
