Simplicial crossed modules and mapping cones.
El contenido de este trabajo tiene un objetivo fundamental: el estudio, clasificación y caracterización de las isometrías de un grupo reticulado. Se introducen los conceptos de grupo de isometrías M(G) de un grupo reticulado G, grupo de simetrías homogéneas H(G) y traslaciones T(G). Se estudia primero el caso elemental de los grupos totalmente ordenados y utilizando luego las representaciones de los grupos (y f-anillos) en un producto de totalmente ordenados, se introduce el concepto de conjunto...
We propose an efficient method for finding a Chebyshev-best soluble approximation to an insoluble system of linear equations over max-plus algebra.
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.
