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 .     

Convex Subgroups of Partially Right-Ordered Groups

We study into the question of whether a partial order can be induced from a partially right-ordered group onto a space of right cosets of w.r.t. some subgroup of . Examples are constructed showing that the condition of being convex for in is insufficient for this. A necessary and sufficient condition (in terms of a subgroup and a positive cone of ) is specified under which an order of can be induced onto . Sufficient conditions are also given. We establish properties of the class of partially right-ordered groups for which is partially ordered for every convex subgroup , and properties of the class of groups such that is partially ordered for every partial right order on and every subgroup that is convex under .     

Test Rank for Some Free Polynilpotent Groups

We prove a theorem on possible test rank values for groups of the form . It is shown that test rank of a free polynilpotent group is equal to or , for any and every collection of classes. Moreover, for and .     

Equational Theories for Classes of Finite Semigroups

It is proved that there exists an infinite sequence of finitely based semigroup varieties such that, for all i, an equational theory for and for the class of all finite semigroups in is undecidable while an equational theory for and for the class of all finite semigroups in is decidable. An infinite sequence of finitely based semigroup varieties is constructed so that, for all i, an equational theory for and for the class of all finite semigroups in is decidable whicle an equational theory for and for the class of all finite semigroups in is not.     

On the Irreducibility of Commuting Varieties Associated with Involutions of Simple Lie Algebras

Let be a reductive Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and an arbitrary -grading. We consider the variety , which is called the commuting variety associated with the -grading. Earlier it was proved by the author that is irreducible, if the -grading is of maximal rank. Now we show that is irreducible for and (E₆,F₄). In the case of symmetric pairs of rank one, we show that the number of irreducible components of is equal to that of nonzero non--regular nilpotent G ₀-orbits in . We also discuss a general problem of the irreducibility of commuting varieties.     

Frobenius Groups Generated by Quadratic Elements

An automorphism of a group X is said to be quadratic if there exist integers and such that for any . If is a Frobenius group then an element is said to be quadratic if induces, by conjugation in the core of , a quadratic automorphism. By definition, a group H acts on a group F freely if for and only with or . It is proved that a Frobenius group generated by two quadratic elements is finite and its core is commutative. In particular, any Frobenius group generated by two elements of order at most 4 is finite. Also we argue that a Frobenius group with finitely generated soluble core is finite. The results mentioned are used to show that a group acting freely on an Abelian group is finite if it is generated by elements of order 3, and the order of a product of every two elements of order 3 in is finite.     

A Question in the Theory of Totally Local Formations of Finite Groups

It is proved that all proper totally local subformations of a non one-generated totally local formation of finite groups are one-generated iff coincides with a formation of all soluble -groups, where ||=2.     

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].     

Levi Classes Generated by Nilpotent Groups

Let be a class of all groups G for which the normal closure (x) ^G of every element x belongs to a class . is a Levi class generated by . Let and ₀ be classes of finitely generated nilpotent groups and of torsion-free, finitely generated, nilpotent groups, respectively. We prove that and , and so and . 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 .

Sharp Conditions for the CLT of Linear Processes in a Hilbert Space

In this paper we study the behavior of sums of a linear process associated to a strictly stationary sequence with values in a real separable Hilbert space and are linear operators from H to H. One of the results is that satisfies the CLT provided are i.i.d. centered having finite second moments and . We shall provide an example which shows that the condition on the operators is essentially sharp. Extensions of this result are given for sequences of weak dependent random variables under minimal conditions.     

A Modal Logic Based on Linearly Ordered f-Spaces

A modal logic associated with the -spaces introduced by Ershov is examined. We construct a modal calculus that is complete w.r.t. the class of all strictly linearly ordered -frames, and the class of all strictly linearly ordered -frames.     

Bernstein-Type Theorems and Uniqueness Theorems

Let be an entire function of finite type with respect to finite order and let be a subset of an open cone in a certain n-dimensional subspace (the smaller , the sparser ). We assume that this cone contains a ray 0} \right\}$$ " align="middle" border="0"> . It is shown that the radial indicator of at any point may be evaluated in terms of function values at points of the discrete subset . Moreover, if tends to zero fast enough as over , then this function vanishes identically. To prove these results, a special approximation technique is developed. In the last part of the paper, it is proved that, under certain conditions on and , which are close to exact conditions, the function bounded on is bounded on the ray.

Localizations of Transfors

Let be n-dimensional teisi, i.e., higher-dimensional Gray-categorical structures. The following questions can be asked. Does a left q-transfor , i.e., a functor 2 _q , induce a right q-transfor , i.e., a functor More generally, does a functor induce a functor For k-arrows c and whose (k – 1)-sources and targets agree, does a q-transfor induce a q-transfor , for appropriate k-arrows For k-arrows c and whose (k – 1)-sources and targets agree, does a q-transfor induce a (q + k + 1)-transfor , for appropriate k-arrows I give answers to these questions in the cases where n-dimensional teisi and their tensor product have been defined, i.e., for n 3, and for n up to 5 in some cases that do not need all data and axioms of n-dimensional teisi.I apply the above to compositions in teisi, in particular to braidings and syllepses. One of the results is that a braiding on a monoidal 2-category induces a pseudo-natural transformation , where is the reverse of ? –, which is almost, but not quite, equal to – ?. However, in higher dimensions need not be reversible, so a braiding on a higher-dimensional tas can not be seen as a transfor A B B A.     

Symmetry of Sections in Fields of Formal Power Series and a Non-Standard Real Line

Let be a field of formal power series with real coefficients, whose supports are well ordered subsets of an Abelian group of cardinality strictly less than . For , we give criteria of a section being symmetric and of a symmetric section being Dedekind. It is proved that an -saturated non-standard real line is isomorphic to some field of the form . For , some consequences are inferred regarding symmetric sections, and the cofinality of banks of the sections.
