<Emphasis Type="Italic">K</Emphasis>-Radical classes and product radical classes of <Emphasis Type="Italic">MV</Emphasis>-algebras

For an MV-algebra let J ₀( ) be the system of all closed ideals of ; this system is partially ordered by the set-theoretical inclusion. A radical class X of MV-algebras will be called a K-radical class iff, whenever ∈ X and is an MV-algebra with J ₀( ) ≅ J ₀( ), then ∈ X. An analogous notation for lattice ordered groups was introduced and studied by Conrad. In the present paper we show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between K-radical classes of MV-algebras and K-radical classes of abelian lattice ordered groups. We also prove an analogous result for product radical classes of MV-algebras; product radical classes of lattice ordered groups were studied by Ton.

Sequential convergences on <Emphasis Type="Italic">MV</Emphasis>-algebras without Urysohn’s axiom

In a previous author’s paper, sequential convergences on an MV-algebra have been studied; the Urysohn’s axiom was assumed to be valid. The system of all such convergences was denoted by Conv . In the present paper we investigate analogous questions without supposing the validity of the Urysohn’s axiom; the corresponding system of convergences is denoted by conv . Both Conv and conv are partially ordered by the set-theoretical inclusion. We deal with the properties of conv 289-6 and the relations between conv and Conv . We prove that each interval of conv is a distributive lattice. The system conv has the least element, but it does not possess any atom. Hence it is either a singleton set or it is infinite. We consider also the relations between conv and conv G, where (G, u) is a unital lattice-ordered group with = Γ (G, u).

Iterative separation in distributive congruence lattices

In [PLOŠČICA, M.: Separation in distributive congruence lattices, Algebra Universalis 49 (2003), 1–12] we defined separable sets in algebraic lattices and showed a close connection between the types of non-separable sets in congruence lattices of algebras in a finitely generated congruence distributive variety and the structure of subdirectly irreducible algebras in . Now we generalize these results using the concept of separable mappings (defined on some trees) and apply them to some lattice varieties.

On modules with <Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>-Koszul-type submodules

The so-called weakly d-Koszul-type module is introduced and it turns out that each weakly d-Koszul-type module contains a d-Koszul-type submodule. It is proved that, M ∈ W H J^d（A） if and only if M admits a filtration of submodules： 0 belong to U0 belong to U1 belong to ... belong to Up = M such that all Ui/Ui-1 are d-Koszul-type modules, from which we obtain that the finitistic dimension conjecture holds in W H J^d（A） in a special case. Let M ∈ W H J^d（A）. It is proved that the Koszul dual E（M） is Noetherian, Hopfian, of finite dimension in special cases, and E（M） ∈ gr0（E（A））. In particular, we show that M ∈ W H J^d（A） if and only if E（G（M）） ∈ gr0（E（A））, where G is the associated graded functor.

Relative MV-algebras and relative homomorphisms

In this paper we define the notion of relative subalgebra of an MV-algebra A. A particular case of this notion is the notion of interval subalgebra of A; this has been already studied in the literature. Applying these notions, two new categories denoted as r      

Cliques in Steiner systems

A partial Steiner (k,l)-system is a k-uniform hypergraph with the property that every l-element subset of V is contained in at most one edge of . In this paper we show that for given k,l and t there exists a partial Steiner (k,l)-system such that whenever an l-element subset from every edge is chosen, the resulting l-uniform hypergraph contains a clique of size t. As the main result of this note, we establish asymptotic lower and upper bounds on the size of such cliques with respect to the order of Steiner systems.

Highest weight representations of a family of Lie algebras of Block type

For an additive subgroup G of a field F of characteristic zero, a Lie algebra B（G） of Block type is defined with basis {Lα,i｜ α∈G, i∈Z＋} and relations [Lα,i, Lβ,j] = （β-α）Lα＋β,i＋j＋（αj-βi）Lα＋β,Lα＋β,i＋j-1.It is proved that an irreducible highest weight B（Z）-module is quasifinite if and only if it is a proper quotient of a Verma module. Furthermore, for a total order λ on G and any ∧∈B（G）0^＊（the dual space of B（G）0 = span{L0,i｜i∈Z＋}）, a Verma B（G）-module M（∧,λ） is defined, and the irreducibility of M（A,λ） is completely determined.     

Direct product decompositions of bounded commutative residuated ℓ-monoids

The notion of bounded commutative residuated ℓ-monoid (BCR ℓ-monoid, in short) generalizes both the notions of MV-algebra and of BL-algebra. Let be a BCR ℓ-monoid; we denote by ℓ( ) the underlying lattice of . In the present paper we show that each direct product decomposition of ℓ( ) determines a direct product decomposition of . This yields that any two direct product decompositions of have isomorphic refinements. We consider also the relations between direct product decompositions of and states on .

A note on the degree conjecture for the Selberg class

The degree conjecture for the Selberg class of L-functions states that the degree d _F of every F ∈ is an integer. Moreover, it is expected that every F ∈ has polynomial Euler product, and that the degree ∂ _F of such an Euler product coincides with d _F . In this note we prove that a suitable continuity assumption on the degree d _F implies that ∂ _F = d _F for all F ∈ with polynomial Euler product.

The commutant of analytic Toeplitz operators on Bergman space

In this paper, using the matrix skills and operator theory techniques we characterize the commutant of analytic Toeplitz operators on Bergman space. For f（z） = z^ng（z） （n ≥1）, g（z） = b0 ＋ b1z^p1 ＋b2z^p2 ＋.. , bk ≠ 0 （k = 0, 1, 2,...）, our main result is =A′（Mf） = A′（Mzn）∩A′（Mg） = A′（Mz^s）, where s = g.c.d.（n,p1,p2,...）. In the last section, we study the relation between strongly irreducible curve and the winding number W（f,f（α））, α ∈ D.     

Compact images of spaces with a weaker metric topology

If X is a space that can be mapped onto a metric space by a one-to-one mapping, then X is said to have a weaker metric topology. In this paper, we give characterizations of sequence-covering compact images and sequentially-quotient compact images of spaces with a weaker metric topology. The main results are that (1) Y is a sequence-covering compact image of a space with a weaker metric topology if and only if Y has a sequence of point-finite cs-covers such that for each y ∈ Y. (2) Y is a sequentially-quotient compact image of a space with a weaker metric topology if and only if Y has a sequence of point-finite cs*-covers such that for each y ∈ Y.

A distribution space for Hilbert transform and its applications

In this paper, a new distribution space is constructed and the definition of the classical Hilbert transform is extended to it. It is shown that is the biggest subspace of on which the extended Hilbert transform is a homeomorphism and both the classical Hilbert transform for L ^p functions and the circular Hilbert transform for periodic functions are special cases of the extension. Some characterizations of the space are given and a class of useful nonlinear phase signals is shown to be in . Finally, the applications of the extended Hilbert transform are discussed.

Formations of lattice ordered groups and of <Emphasis Type="Italic">GMV</Emphasis>-algebras

A class of lattice ordered groups is called a formation if it is closed with respect to homomorphic images and finite subdirect products. Analogously we define the formation of GMV-algebras. Let us denote by ℱ₁ and ℱ₂ the collection of all formations of lattice ordered groups or of GMV-algebras, respectively. Both ℱ₁ and ℱ₂ are partially ordered by the class-theoretical inclusion. We prove that ℱ₁ satisfies the infinite distributivity law and that ℱ₂ is isomorphic to a principal ideal of ℱ₁. This work was supported by VEGA grant 2/7141/27.     

On conditionally positive definite dot product kernels

Let m and n be fixed, positive integers and P a space composed of real polynomials in m variables. The authors study functions f ： R →R which map Gram matrices, based upon n points of R^m, into matrices, which are nonnegative definite with respect to P Among other things, the authors discuss continuity, differentiability, convexity, and convexity in the sense of Jensen, of such functions     

Measure theory of statistical convergence

The question of establishing measure theory for statistical convergence has been moving closer to center stage, since a kind of reasonable theory is not only fundamental for unifying various kinds of statistical convergence, but also a bridge linking the studies of statistical convergence across measure theory, integration theory, probability and statistics. For this reason, this paper, in terms of subdifferential, first shows a representation theorem for all finitely additive probability measures defined on the σ-algebra of all subsets of N, and proves that every such measure can be uniquely decomposed into a convex combination of a countably additive probability measure and a statistical measure (i.e. a finitely additive probability measure μ with μ(k) = 0 for all singletons {k}). This paper also shows that classical statistical measures have many nice properties, such as: The set of all such measures endowed with the topology of point-wise convergence on forms a compact convex Hausdorff space; every classical statistical measure is of continuity type (hence, atomless), and every specific class of statistical measures fits a complementation minimax rule for every subset in N. Finally, this paper shows that every kind of statistical convergence can be unified in convergence of statistical measures.

Construct weak Hopf algebras by using Borcherds matrix

We define a new kind quantized enveloping algebra of a generalized Kac-Moody algebra by adding a new generator J satisfying jm = j for some integer m. We denote this algebra by wUqT（A）. This algebra is a weak Hopf algebra if and only if m = 2,3. In general, it is a bialgebra, and contains a Hopf subalgebra. This Hopf subalgebra is isomorphic to the usual quantum envelope algebra Uq （A） of a generalized Kac-Moody algebra A.
