Computing Reidemeister classes

Davide Ferrario (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In order to compute the Nielsen number N(f) of a self-map f: X → X, some Reidemeister classes in the fundamental group π 1 ( X ) need to be distinguished. In this paper some algebraic results are given which allow distinguishing Reidemeister classes and hence computing the Reidemeister number of some maps. Examples of computations are presented.

Cardinal invariants of ultraproducts of Boolean algebras

Andrzej Rosłanowski, Saharon Shelah (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We deal with some problems posed by Monk [Mo 1], [Mo 3] and related to cardinal invariants of ultraproducts of Boolean algebras. We also introduce and investigate several new cardinal invariants.

The universal functorial Lefschetz invariant

Wolfgang Lück (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We introduce the universal functorial Lefschetz invariant for endomorphisms of finite CW-complexes in terms of Grothendieck groups of endomorphisms of finitely generated free modules. It encompasses invariants like Lefschetz number, its generalization to the Lefschetz invariant, Nielsen number and L 2 -torsion of mapping tori. We examine its behaviour under fibrations.

Categoricity of theories in Lκω , when κ is a measurable cardinal. Part 1

Saharon Shelah, Oren Kolman (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We assume a theory T in the logic L κ ω is categorical in a cardinal λ κ, and κ is a measurable cardinal. We prove that the class of models of T of cardinality < λ (but ≥ |T|+κ) has the amalgamation property; this is a step toward understanding the character of such classes of models.
