Representation of Cubic Lattices by Symmetric Implication Algebras

In this paper a cubic lattice L(S) is endowed with a symmetric implication structure and it is proved that L(S) \ {0} is a power of the three-element simple symmetric implication algebra. The Metropolis–Rota’s symmetries are obtained as partial terms in the language of symmetric implication algebras.     

Adjugates in Banach algebras

A simple formula for the adjugate of a block triangle offers an alternative route to the determinant theory for Banach algebras.

     

Photoluminescence study in step-graded composition InxAl1−xAs/GaAs

We report on the lattice-mismatched growth of step-graded In_xAl_1−xAs buffer layers on GaAs (0 0 1) substrates by molecular beam epitay (MBE). The approach to growing highly lattice-mismatched epilayers is to interpose a buffer layer between the substrate and the active layer. Two samples G30 and G40 with active layer compositions, respectively, x = 0.46 and x = 0.41, are studied by photoluminescence (PL). At low temperature, the PL spectra show a large broadened band whose energy and intensity depend on the active layer composition. The step-graded layer compositions improved the crystalline quality of these structures and increase the active layer PL band intensity.     

Artinian level modules and cancellable sequences

In order to use dualization to study Hilbert functions of artinian level algebras we extend the notion of level sequences and cancellable sequences, introduced by Geramita and Lorenzini, to include Hilbert functions of certain artinian modules. As in the case of algebras a level sequence is cancellable, but now by dualization its reverse is also cancellable which gives a new condition on level sequences. We also give a characterization of the cancellable sequences involving Macaulay representations.     

States and Structure of von Neumann Algebras

We summarize and deepen recent results on the interplay between properties of states and the structure of von Neumann algebras. We treat Jauch–Piron states and the concept of independence in noncommutative probability theory.     

R-Matrices for Leibniz Algebras

Leibniz agebras are a generalization of Lie algebras, where no symmetry properties of the bracket are required. In this Letter we introduce a notion of R-matrices for this structure and the related Yang–Baxter equations, and discuss some of their basic properties.     

Bohr's inequality for uniform algebras

We prove a uniform algebra analogue of a classical inequality of Bohr's concerning Fourier coefficients of bounded holomorphic functions. The classical inequality follows trivially.

     

Finite-Dimensional Simple Leibniz Pairs and Simple Poisson Modules

Simple modules over the Leibniz pairs are studied. Simple Poisson modules over Poisson algebras of the semisimple associative algebra structure are determined and they are nothing but simple bimodules over simple associative algebras with standard noncommutative Poisson algebra structure.     

Hopf Modules and Noncommutative Differential Geometry

We define a new algebra of noncommutative differential forms for any Hopf algebra with an invertible antipode. We prove that there is a one-to-one correspondence between anti-Yetter–Drinfeld modules, which serve as coefficients for the Hopf cyclic (co)homology, and modules which admit a flat connection with respect to our differential calculus. Thus, we show that these coefficient modules can be regarded as “flat bundles” in the sense of Connes’ noncommutative differential geometry.     

The core of zero-dimensional monomial ideals

The core of an ideal is the intersection of all its reductions. We describe the core of a zero-dimensional monomial ideal I as the largest monomial ideal contained in a general reduction of I. This provides a new interpretation of the core in the monomial case as well as an efficient algorithm for computing it. We relate the core to adjoints and first coefficient ideals, and in dimension two and three we give explicit formulas.
