Embeddings of quasicells of iterative algebras.
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 -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 is an Engel BCI-algebra, but solvable BCI-algebras are not Engel, generally. Also, it is proved that...
We study the entropy mainly on special effect algebras with (RDP), namely on tribes of fuzzy sets and sigma-complete MV-algebras. We generalize results from [RiMu] and [RiNe] which were known only for special tribes.
We define the entropy, lower and upper entropy, and the conditional entropy of a dynamical system consisting of an effect algebra with the Riesz decomposition property, a state, and a transformation. Such effect algebras allow many refinements of two partitions. We present the basic properties of these entropies and these notions are illustrated by many examples. Entropy on MV-algebras is postponed to Part II.
We prove that an equational class of Hilbert algebras cannot be defined by a single equation. In particular Hilbert algebras and implication algebras are not one-based. Also, we use a seminal theorem of Alfred Tarski in equational logic to characterize the set of cardinalities of all finite irredundant bases of the varieties of Hilbert algebras, implication algebras and commutative BCK algebras: all these varieties can be defined by independent bases of n elements, for each n > 1.
Following the study of sharp domination in effect algebras, in particular, in atomic Archimedean MV-effect algebras it is proved that if an atomic MV-effect algebra is uniformly Archimedean then it is sharply dominating.
In [4] it is proved that a measure on a finite coarse-grained space extends, as a signed measure, over the entire power algebra. In [7] this result is reproved and further improved. Both the articles [4] and [7] use the proof techniques of linear spaces (i.e. they use multiplication by real scalars). In this note we show that all the results cited above can be relatively easily obtained by the Horn-Tarski extension technique in a purely combinatorial manner. We also characterize the pure measures...
