Some closure properties in monoids.
This paper systematizes some theory concerning the generation of -groups and reduced -rings from substructures. We are particularly concerned with archimedean and hyperarchimedean groups and rings. We discuss the process of adjoining a weak order unit to an -group, or an identity to an -ring and find significant contrasts between these cases. In -groups, hyperarchimedeanness and similar properties fail to pass from generating structures to the structures that they generate, as illustrated by...
All ℓ-groups shall be abelian. An a-extension of an ℓ-group is an extension preserving the lattice of ideals; an ℓ-group with no proper a-extension is called a-closed. A hyperarchimedean ℓ-group is one for which each quotient is archimedean. This paper examines hyperarchimedean ℓ-groups with unit and their a-extensions by means of the Yosida representation, focussing on several previously open problems. Paul Conrad asked in 1965: If G is a-closed and M is an ideal, is G/M a-closed? And in 1972:...
In this paper we are exploiting some similarities between Markov and Bellman processes and we introduce the main concepts of the paper: comparison of performance measures, and monotonicity of Bellman chains. These concepts are used to establish the main result of this paper dealing with comparison of Bellman chains.
Let be a partially ordered abelian group (-group). The construction of the Lorenzen ideal -system in is investigated and the functorial properties of this construction with respect to the semigroup of all -ideal systems defined on are derived, where for and a lower bounded subset , . It is proved that Lorenzen construction is the natural transformation between two functors from the category of -groups with special morphisms into the category of abelian ordered semigroups.
We investigate some (universal algebraic) properties of residuated lattices—algebras which play the role of structures of truth values of various systems of fuzzy logic.
In this paper, we introduce the concept of bipolar-valued fuzzification of ordered 𝓐𝓖-groupoids and discuss some structural properties of bipolar-valued fuzzy two-sided ideals of an intra-regular ordered 𝓐𝓖-groupoid.
Aggregation operators have the important application in any fields where the fusion of information is processed. The dominance relation between two aggregation operators is linked to the fusion of fuzzy relations, indistinguishability operators and so on. In this paper, we deal with the weak dominance relation between two aggregation operators which is closely related with the dominance relation. Weak domination of isomorphic aggregation operators and ordinal sum of conjunctors is presented. More...
Quasi -spaces are defined to be those Tychonoff spaces such that each prime -ideal of is either minimal or maximal. This article is devoted to a systematic study of these spaces, which are an obvious generalization of -spaces. The compact quasi -spaces are characterized as the compact spaces which are scattered and of Cantor-Bendixson index no greater than 2. A thorough account of locally compact quasi -spaces is given. If is a cozero-complemented space and every nowhere dense zeroset...
