On posets with isomorphic interval posets

Let be a partially ordered set, Int the system of all (nonempty) intervals of partially ordered by the set-theoretical inclusion . We are interested in partially ordered sets with Int isomorphic to Int . We are going to show that they correspond to couples of binary relations on A satisfying some conditions. If is a directed partially ordered set, the only with Int isomorphic to Int are corresponding to direct decompositions of ( denotes the dual of . The present results include those presented in the paper [11] by V. Slavík. Systems of intervals, particularly of lattices, have been investigated by many authors, cf. [1]–[11].     

A Comparison on the Commutative Neutrix Convolution of Distributions and the Exchange Formula

Let , be ultradistributions in and let and where is a sequence in which converges to the Dirac-delta function . Then the neutrix product is defined on the space of ultradistributions as the neutrix limit of the sequence provided the limit exist in the sense that

Annihilators in Normal Autometrized Algebras

The concepts of an annihilator and a relative annihilator in an autometrized l-algebra are introduced. It is shown that every relative annihilator in a normal autometrized l-algebra is an ideal of and every principal ideal of is an annihilator of . The set of all annihilators of forms a complete lattice. The concept of an I-polar is introduced for every ideal I of . The set of all I-polars is a complete lattice which becomes a two-element chain provided I is prime. The I-polars are characterized as pseudocomplements in the lattice of all ideals of containing I.     

A Completion of \mathbb{Z} is a Field

We define various ring sequential convergences on and . We describe their properties and properties of their convergence completions. In particular, we define a convergence on by means of a nonprincipal ultrafilter on the positive prime numbers such that the underlying set of the completion is the ultraproduct of the prime finite fields Further, we show that is sequentially precompact but fails to be strongly sequentially precompact; this solves a problem posed by D. Dikranjan.

On the Karoubi Filtration of a Category

Let be an -filtered category in the sense of Karoubi. This is the categorical analogue of an ideal in a ring . Pedersen and Weibel constructed a fibration of K-theory spectra associated with the sequence . We present a new easier proof based on Waldhausen' generic fibration.     

Estimates for the Energy Integral of Quasiregular Mappings on Riemannian Manifolds and Isoperimetry

The rate of growth of the energy integral of a quasiregular mapping is estimated in terms of a special isoperimetric condition on . The estimate leads to new Phragmen-Lindelof type theorems.     

Coreflections Versus Regular Epimorphisms in Categories of Topological Spaces

Let be an epireflective subcategory of the category Top of topological spaces which is not contained in the category of indiscrete spaces (e.g. Top, the category of Hausdorff spaces, the category of Tychonoff spaces) and be a coreflective subcategory of . In this paper we prove that the coreflector preserves regular epimorphisms if and only if or is contained in the category of discrete spaces.     

Determinants of Matrices Associated with Incidence Functions on Posets

Let S = x ₁,...,x _n} be a finite subset of a partially ordered set P. Let f be an incidence function of P. Let denote the n × n matrix having f evaluated at the meet of x _i and x _j as its i, j-entry and denote the n × n matrix having f evaluated at the join of x _i and x _j as its i, j-entry. The set S is said to be meet-closed if for all 1 i, j n. In this paper we get explicit combinatorial formulas for the determinants of matrices and on any meet-closed set S. We also obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the matrices and on any meet-closed set S to be nonsingular. Finally, we give some number-theoretic applications.     

A Canonical Directly Infinite Ring

Let be the set of nonnegative integers and the ring of integers. Let be the ring of N × N matrices over generated by the following two matrices: one obtained from the identity matrix by shifting the ones one position to the right and the other one position down. This ring plays an important role in the study of directly finite rings. Calculation of invertible and idempotent elements of yields that the subrings generated by them coincide. This subring is the sum of the ideal consisting of all matrices in with only a finite number of nonzero entries and the subring of generated by the identity matrix. Regular elements are also described. We characterize all ideals of , show that all ideals are finitely generated and that not all ideals of are principal. Some general ring theoretic properties of are also established.     

On the Growth of Entire Functions of Exponential Type near a Straight Line

Let be a sequence of complex numbers such that as . For close to the imaginary axis, upper bounds of the indicator of a nonzero entire function of exponential type with minimal growth vanishing on is obtained. These bounds give sufficient conditions for the system of exponents to be incomplete in an unbounded domain in .

Varieties Defined by Permutations

We continue to study interrelations between permutative varieties and the cyclic varieties defined by cycles of the form . A criterion is given determining whether a cyclic variety is interpretable in . For a permutation without fixed elements, it is stated that a set of primes for which is interpretable in in the lattice is finite. It is also proved that for distinct primes , the Helly number of a type in coincides with dimension of the dual type and equals .

It is shown that quasivarieties and are closed under free products, and that each contains at most one maximal proper subquasivariety. It is also proved that is closed under free products if so is .     

Equivariant K-Homology and Restriction to Finite Cyclic Subgroups

For a discrete group G, we prove that a G-map between proper G–CW-complexes induces an isomorphism in G-equivariant K-homology if it induces an isomorphism in C-equivariant K-homology for every finite cyclic subgroup C of G. As an application, we show that the source of the Baum–Connes assembly map, namely K _* ^G (E(G, in)), is isomorphic to K _* ^G (E(G, )), where E(G, ) denotes the classifying space for the family of finite cyclic subgroups of G. Letting be the family of virtually cyclic subgroups of G, we also establish that and related results.

We also define and study continuous K-theory of orders in p-adic semi-simple algebras and show some connection between the profinite and continuous K-theory of .     

Characterization of Normal Traces on Von Neumann Algebras by Inequalities for the Modulus

It is proved that if a normal semifinite weight on a von Neumann algebra satisfies the inequality for any selfadjoint operators in , then this weight is a trace. Several similar characterizations of traces among the normal semifinite weights are proved. In particular, Gardner's result on the characterization of traces by the inequality is refined and reinforced.
