We characterize free poset algebras F(P) over partially ordered sets and show that they can be represented by upper semi-lattice algebras. Hence, the uniqueness, in decomposition into normal form, using symmetric difference, of non-zero elements of F(P) is established. Moreover, a characterization of upper semi-lattice algebras that are isomorphic to free poset algebras is given in terms of a selected set of generators of B(T).
Some properties of Boolean algebras are characterized through the topological properties of a certain space of countable sequences of ordinals. For this, it is necessary to prove the Ramsey theorems for an arbitrary infinite cardinal. Also, we define continuous mappings on these spaces from vector measures on the algebra.
Modes are idempotent and entropic algebras. While the mode structure of sets of submodes has received considerable attention in the past, this paper is devoted to the study of mode structure on sets of mode homomorphisms. Connections between the two constructions are established. A detailed analysis is given for the algebra of homomorphisms from submodes of one mode to submodes of another. In particular, it is shown that such algebras can be decomposed as Płonka sums of more elementary homomorphism...
