A groupoid characterization of Boolean algebras

Ivan Chajda (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

We present a groupoid which can be converted into a Boolean algebra with respect to term operations. Also conversely, every Boolean algebra can be reached in this way.

A multiplication of e -varieties of orthodox semigroups

Martin Kuřil (1995)

Archivum Mathematicum

We define semantically a partial multiplication on the lattice of all e–varieties of regular semigroups. In the case that the first factor is an e–variety of orthodox semigroups we describe our multiplication syntactically in terms of biinvariant congruences.

A note on coclones of topological spaces

Artur Barkhudaryan (2011)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The clone of a topological space is known to have a strictly more expressive first-order language than that of the monoid of continuous self-maps. The current paper studies coclones of topological spaces (i.e. clones in the category dual to that of topological spaces and continuous maps) and proves that, in contrast to clones, the first-order properties of coclones cannot express anything more than those of the monoid, except for the case of discrete and indiscrete spaces.

A note on cylindric lattices

Ivo Düntsch (1993)

Banach Center Publications

0. Introduction. Besides being of intrinsic interest, cylindric (semi-) lattices arise naturally from the study of dependencies in relational databases; the polynomials on a cylindric semilattice are closely related to the queries obtainable from project-join mappings on a relational database (cf. [D] for references). This note is intended to initiate the study of these structures, and only a few, rather basic results will be given. Some problems at the end will hopefully stimulate further research....
