Embeddings into 𝓟(ℕ)/fin and extension of automorphisms

A. Bella, A. Dow, K. P. Hart, M. Hrusak, J. van Mill, P. Ursino (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Given a Boolean algebra 𝔹 and an embedding e:𝔹 → 𝓟(ℕ)/fin we consider the possibility of extending each or some automorphism of 𝔹 to the whole 𝓟(ℕ)/fin. Among other things, we show, assuming CH, that for a wide class of Boolean algebras there are embeddings for which no non-trivial automorphism can be extended.

Endomorphisms of symbolic algebraic varieties

Misha Gromov (1999)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

The theorem of Ax says that any regular selfmapping of a complex algebraic variety is either surjective or non-injective; this property is called surjunctivity and investigated in the present paper in the category of proregular mappings of proalgebraic spaces. We show that such maps are surjunctive if they commute with sufficiently large automorphism groups. Of particular interest is the case of proalgebraic varieties over infinite graphs. The paper intends to bring out relations between model theory,...

Engel BCI-algebras: an application of left and right commutators

Ardavan Najafi, Arsham Borumand Saeid (2021)

Mathematica Bohemica

We introduce Engel elements in a BCI-algebra by using left and right normed commutators, and some properties of these elements are studied. The notion of n -Engel BCI-algebra as a natural generalization of commutative BCI-algebras is introduced, and we discuss Engel BCI-algebra, which is defined by left and right normed commutators. In particular, we prove that any nilpotent BCI-algebra of type 2 is an Engel BCI-algebra, but solvable BCI-algebras are not Engel, generally. Also, it is proved that...

Entropies of vague information sources

Milan Mareš (2011)

Kybernetika

The information-theoretical entropy is an effective measure of uncertainty connected with an information source. Its transfer from the classical probabilistic information theory models to the fuzzy set theoretical environment is desirable and significant attempts were realized in the existing literature. Nevertheless, there are some open topics for analysis in the suggested models of fuzzy entropy - the main of them regard the formal aspects of the fundamental concepts. Namely their rather additive...

Entropy of T -sums and T -products of L - R fuzzy numbers

Anna Kolesárová, Doretta Vivona (2001)

Kybernetika

In the paper the entropy of L R fuzzy numbers is studied. It is shown that for a given norm function, the computation of the entropy of L R fuzzy numbers reduces to using a simple formula which depends only on the spreads and shape functions of incoming numbers. In detail the entropy of T M –sums and T M –products of L R fuzzy numbers is investigated. It is shown that the resulting entropy can be computed only by means of the entropy of incoming fuzzy numbers or by means of their parameters without the...
