Let H be a fixed finite graph and let → H be a hom-property, i.e. the set of all graphs admitting a homomorphism into H. We extend the definition of → H to include certain infinite graphs H and then describe the minimal reducible bounds for → H in the lattice of additive hereditary properties and in the lattice of hereditary properties.
We will characterize-under appropriate axiomatic assumptions-when a linear order is minimal with respect to not being a countable union of scattered suborders. We show that, assuming PFA⁺, the only linear orders which are minimal with respect to not being σ-scattered are either Countryman types or real types. We also outline a plausible approach to demonstrating the relative consistency of: There are no minimal non-σ-scattered linear orders. In the process of establishing these results, we will...
Bounded residuated lattice ordered monoids (-monoids) form a class of algebras which contains the class of Heyting algebras, i.e. algebras of the propositional intuitionistic logic, as well as the classes of algebras of important propositional fuzzy logics such as pseudo -algebras (or, equivalently, -algebras) and pseudo -algebras (and so, particularly, -algebras and -algebras). Modal operators on Heyting algebras were studied by Macnab (1981), on -algebras were studied by Harlenderová and...
Modal operators on Heyting algebras were introduced by Macnab. In this paper we introduce analogously modal operators on MV-algebras and study their properties. Moreover, modal operators on certain derived structures are investigated.
Modal pseudocomplemented De Morgan algebras (or -algebras for short) are investigated in this paper. This new equational class of algebras was introduced by A. V. Figallo and P. Landini ([Figallo, A. V., Landini, P.: Notes on -valued modal algebras Preprints del Instituto de Ciencias Básicas, Univ. Nac. de San Juan 1 (1990), 28–37.]) and they constitute a proper subvariety of the variety of all pseudocomplemented De Morgan algebras satisfying . Firstly, a topological duality for these algebras...
This paper presents a modeling methodology in (max,+) algebra which has been developed in order to implement a modulary software for the simulation and the analysis of electronic cards production lines. More generally, this approach may be applied to hybrid flowshop type manufacturing systems.
