On monadic quantale algebras: basic properties and representation theorems

2010

Motivated by the concept of quantifier (in the sense of P. Halmos) on different algebraic structures (Boolean algebras, Heyting algebras, MV-algebras, orthomodular lattices, bounded distributive lattices) and the resulting notion of monadic algebra, the paper introduces the concept of a monadic quantale algebra, considers its properties and provides several representation theorems for the new structures.

Free sequences and the tightness of pseudoradial spaces

2019

Let F(X) be the supremum of cardinalities of free sequences in X. We prove that the radial character of every Lindelof Hausdorff almost radial space X and the set-tightness of every Lindelof Hausdorff space are always bounded above by F(X). We then improve a result of Dow, Juhasz, Soukup, Szentmiklossy and Weiss by proving that if X is a Lindelof Hausdorff space, and $$X_\delta $$ denotes the $$G_\delta $$ topology on X then $$t(X_\delta ) \le 2^{t(X)}$$ . Finally, we exploit this to prove that if X is a Lindelof Hausdorff pseudoradial space then $$F(X_\delta ) \le 2^{F(X)}$$ .

Symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic key exchange protocols in the octonion algebra

2019

AbstractWe propose three cryptographic key exchange protocols in the octonion algebra. Using the totient function, defined for integral octonions, we generalize the RSA public-key cryptosystem to the octonion arithmetics. The two proposed symmetric cryptographic key exchange protocols are based on the automorphism and the derivation of the octonion algebra.

Characters, bilinear forms and solvable groups

2016

Abstract We prove a number of results about the ordinary and Brauer characters of finite solvable groups in characteristic 2, by defining and using the concept of the extended nucleus of a real irreducible character. In particular we show that the Isaacs canonical lift of a real irreducible Brauer character has Frobenius–Schur indicator +1. We also show that the principal indecomposable module corresponding to a real irreducible Brauer character affords a quadratic geometry if and only if each extended nucleus is a split extension of a nucleus.

On the critical behavior for time-fractional pseudo-parabolic type equations with combined nonlinearities

2022

AbstractWe are concerned with the existence and nonexistence of global weak solutions for a certain class of time-fractional inhomogeneous pseudo-parabolic-type equations involving a nonlinearity of the form $|u|^{p}+\iota |\nabla u|^{q}$ | u | p + ι | ∇ u | q , where $p,q>1$ p , q > 1 , and $\iota \geq 0$ ι ≥ 0 is a constant. The cases $\iota =0$ ι = 0 and $\iota >0$ ι > 0 are discussed separately. For each case, the critical exponent in the Fujita sense is obtained. We point out two interesting phenomena. First, the obtained critical exponents are independent of the fractional orders of the time derivative. Secondly, in the case $\iota >0$ ι > 0 , we show that the gradie…

Cardinal estimates involving the weak Lindelöf game

2021

AbstractWe show that if X is a first-countable Urysohn space where player II has a winning strategy in the game $$G^{\omega _1}_1({\mathcal {O}}, {\mathcal {O}}_D)$$ G 1 ω 1 ( O , O D ) (the weak Lindelöf game of length $$\omega _1$$ ω 1 ) then X has cardinality at most continuum. This may be considered a partial answer to an old question of Bell, Ginsburg and Woods. It is also the best result of this kind since there are Hausdorff first-countable spaces of arbitrarily large cardinality where player II has a winning strategy even in the weak Lindelöf game of countable length. We also tackle the problem of finding a bound on the cardinality of a first-countable space where player II has a wi…
