Convex mappings of archimedean MV-algebras
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.
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 of a deductive system is the the pseudocomplement of . These results are more general than that the similar results given by M. Kondo in [7].
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 to toric varieties by extending the method used by Gonciulea and Lakshmibai for a miniscule to Schubert varieties in .
In an algebraic frame the dimension, , is defined, as in classical ideal theory, to be the maximum of the lengths of chains of primes , if such a maximum exists, and otherwise. A notion of “dominance” is then defined among the compact elements of , which affords one a primefree way to compute dimension. Various subordinate dimensions are considered on a number of frame quotients of , including the frames and of -elements and -elements, respectively. The more concrete illustrations...
This paper continues the investigation into Krull-style dimensions in algebraic frames. Let be an algebraic frame. is the supremum of the lengths of sequences of (proper) prime elements of . Recently, Th. Coquand, H. Lombardi and M.-F. Roy have formulated a characterization which describes the dimension of in terms of the dimensions of certain boundary quotients of . This paper gives a purely frame-theoretic proof of this result, at once generalizing it to frames which are not necessarily...
