On minimal spectrum of multiplication lattice modules

Sachin Ballal, Vilas Kharat (2019)

Mathematica Bohemica

We study the minimal prime elements of multiplication lattice module M over a C -lattice L . Moreover, we topologize the spectrum π ( M ) of minimal prime elements of M and study several properties of it. The compactness of π ( M ) is characterized in several ways. Also, we investigate the interplay between the topological properties of π ( M ) and algebraic properties of M .

On Monk’s questions

Saharon Shelah (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We deal with Boolean algebras and their cardinal functions: π-weight π and π-character πχ. We investigate the spectrum of π-weights of subalgebras of a Boolean algebra B. Next we show that the π-character of an ultraproduct of Boolean algebras may be different from the ultraproduct of the π-characters of the factors.

On preimages of ultrafilters in ZF

Horst Herrlich, Paul Howard, Kyriakos Keremedis (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We show that given infinite sets X , Y and a function f : X Y which is onto and n -to-one for some n , the preimage of any ultrafilter of Y under f extends to an ultrafilter. We prove that the latter result is, in some sense, the best possible by constructing a permutation model with a set of atoms A and a finite-to-one onto function f : A ω such that for each free ultrafilter of ω its preimage under f does not extend to an ultrafilter. In addition, we show that in there exists an ultrafilter compact pseudometric...

On Semi-Boolean-Like Algebras

Antonio Ledda, Francesco Paoli, Antonino Salibra (2013)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

In a previous paper, we introduced the notion of Boolean-like algebra as a generalisation of Boolean algebras to an arbitrary similarity type. In a nutshell, a double-pointed algebra 𝐀 with constants 0 , 1 is Boolean-like in case for all a A the congruences θ a , 0 and θ a , 1 are complementary factor congruences of 𝐀 . We also introduced the weaker notion of semi-Boolean-like algebra, showing that it retained some of the strong algebraic properties characterising Boolean algebras. In this paper, we continue the investigation...

On some types of radical classes

Ján Jakubík (2008)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let 𝔪 be an infinite cardinal. We denote by C 𝔪 the collection of all 𝔪 -representable Boolean algebras. Further, let C 𝔪 0 be the collection of all generalized Boolean algebras B such that for each b B , the interval [ 0 , b ] of B belongs to C 𝔪 . In this paper we prove that C 𝔪 0 is a radical class of generalized Boolean algebras. Further, we investigate some related questions concerning lattice ordered groups and generalized M V -algebras.

On the cardinality and weight spectra of compact spaces, II

Istvan Juhász, Saharon Shelah (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let B(κ,λ) be the subalgebra of P(κ) generated by [ κ ] λ . It is shown that if B is any homomorphic image of B(κ,λ) then either | B | < 2 λ or | B | = | B | λ ; moreover, if X is the Stone space of B then either | X | 2 2 λ or | X | = | B | = | B | λ . This implies the existence of 0-dimensional compact T 2 spaces whose cardinality and weight spectra omit lots of singular cardinals of “small” cofinality.

On the existence of prime ideals in Boolean algebras

Jörg Flum (1999)

Banach Center Publications

Rasiowa and Sikorski [5] showed that in any Boolean algebra there is an ultrafilter preserving countably many given infima. In [3] we proved an extension of this fact and gave some applications. Here, besides further remarks, we present some of these results in a more general setting.
