Countable chains of distributive lattices as maximal semilattice quotients of positive cones of dimension groups

Pavel Růžička (2006)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We construct a countable chain of Boolean semilattices, with all inclusion maps preserving the join and the bounds, whose union cannot be represented as the maximal semilattice quotient of the positive cone of any dimension group. We also construct a similar example with a countable chain of strongly distributive bounded semilattices. This solves a problem of F. Wehrung.

Deductive systems of BCK-algebras

Sergio A. Celani (2004)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

In this paper we shall give some results on irreducible deductive systems in BCK-algebras and we shall prove that the set of all deductive systems of a BCK-algebra is a Heyting algebra. As a consequence of this result we shall show that the annihilator F * of a deductive system F is the the pseudocomplement of F . These results are more general than that the similar results given by M. Kondo in [7].

Degeneration of Schubert varieties of S L n / B to toric varieties

Raika Dehy, Rupert W.T. Yu (2001)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Using the polytopes defined in an earlier paper, we show in this paper the existence of degeneration of a large class of Schubert varieties of S L n to toric varieties by extending the method used by Gonciulea and Lakshmibai for a miniscule G / P to Schubert varieties in S L n .

Dimension in algebraic frames

Jorge Martinez (2006)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In an algebraic frame L the dimension, dim ( L ) , is defined, as in classical ideal theory, to be the maximum of the lengths n of chains of primes p 0 < p 1 < < p n , if such a maximum exists, and otherwise. A notion of “dominance” is then defined among the compact elements of L , which affords one a primefree way to compute dimension. Various subordinate dimensions are considered on a number of frame quotients of L , including the frames d L and z L of d -elements and z -elements, respectively. The more concrete illustrations...

Dimension in algebraic frames, II: Applications to frames of ideals in C ( X )

Jorge Martinez, Eric R. Zenk (2005)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

This paper continues the investigation into Krull-style dimensions in algebraic frames. Let L be an algebraic frame. dim ( L ) is the supremum of the lengths k of sequences p 0 < p 1 < < p k of (proper) prime elements of L . Recently, Th. Coquand, H. Lombardi and M.-F. Roy have formulated a characterization which describes the dimension of L in terms of the dimensions of certain boundary quotients of L . This paper gives a purely frame-theoretic proof of this result, at once generalizing it to frames which are not necessarily...
