Affine Completeness in ExpandedGroups

E. Aichinger, J. Ecker

We call a universal algebra A k-affine complete if every k-ary congru-ence preserving function on A is polynomial; we call it affine completeif it is k-affine complete for all k in N. For each k in N, the alge-bra Rk :=< Z4 × Z2; +, fk > with fk(x1, x2, ..., xk) := 2x1x2...xk isk-affine complete, but not affine complete. It is not known if thereis an algorithm that decides whether a given finite algebra (of finitetype, with given operation tables for all operations) is affine complete.However, we will show that it is decidable whether a finite nilpotentgroup (given by its multiplication table) is affine complete: havingcomputed its nilpotent class k, it is sufficient to check whether thegroup is (k + 1)-affine complete.

Actions of Finite Quantum Groupson Quantum Polynomials

V. A. Artamonov

A noncommutative analog of a polynomial algebra over a field k is aquantum polynomial algebra Λ generated by elements

X1, X−11 , . . . , Xr, X

−1r , Xr+1, . . . , Xn

subject to defining relations XiX−1i = X−1

i Xi = 1 if 1 ≤ i ≤ r andXiXj = qijXjXi if 1 ≤ i, j ≤ n. Elements qij ∈ k∗ satisfy the relationsqii = qijqji = 1 for all 1 ≤ i, j ≤ n, and r is an integer such that0 ≤ r ≤ n. The algebra Λ can be considered as a coordinate algebraof a direct product of quantum torus Tr and a quantum affine spaceAn−r [1].The aim of this study is a classification of actions of finite quantumgroups on Tr × An−r in terms of H-module structure on the algebraΛ where H is a finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebra [2].There are some examples of actions of some special pointed finitedimensional Hopf algebras on Λ. Namely let U be a subgroup of a finiteindex in Zn and [k(Zn/U)]∗ the dual Hopf algebra of the group algebrak(Zn/U) of the finite factorgroup Zn/U . For any f ∈ [k(Zn/U)]∗ weput f ◦ Xv = f(v + U)Xv for any monomial Xv, where v ∈ Zn is amulti-index. Hopf algebra [k(Zn/U)]∗ is provided with an involutiveautomorphism f 7→ f where f(v) = f(−v). So we can form a smashproduct [k(Zn/U)]∗]k〈ξ〉 with the cyclic group 〈ξ〉 of order 2. If r = nthen the action of [k(Zn/U)]∗ on Λ can be extended to an action ofthe smash product where ξ ◦Xv = X−v for all v ∈ Zn.

Theorem 0.1: Suppose that qij, 1 ≤ i < j ≤ n, are independent inthe multiplicative group k∗ of the field k and H is a pointed finitedimensional Hopf algebra H such that if r = n = 2 then dim H is notdivisible neither by 4 nor by 3. Let Λ be a left H-module algebra. Then

Actions of Finite Quantum Groups on Quantum Polynomials 8

there exists a subgroup U in Zn of a finite index and a Hopf algebrahomomorphism Ψ : H → [k(Zn/U)]∗]k〈ξ〉 such that the action of Hin Λ is a product of Ψ and the mentioned action of [k(Zn/U)]∗]k〈ξ〉on Λ. If Ψ is not surjective then its image is equal to [k(Zn/U)]∗. Itis always the case if r < n.

Dimension of Topological Spaces andLocal Homologies

D. Artamonov

The dimension of a topological space is characterized by local homolo-gies. In the trivial case of a polyhedra the local homologies are freeabelian groups. In the talk I will give a topological characterizationof a space with free local homologies: it will be shown that in somenatural class of spaces this property is eqvivalent to the property tobe a dimensionally full valued space. It is discussed whether localhomologies can have torsion. Also it will be considered a relationshipbetween “generalized polyhedras” - spaces with free local homologies- and generalized (homological) manyfolds.

On Decomposable Finite Groups

A. R. Ashrafi

Let G be a finite group and A be a normal subgroup of G. We denoteby ncc(A) the number of G−conjugacy classes of A and A is calledn−decomposable, if ncc(A) = n. Set

KG = {ncc(A) | A is a normal sub group of G}.

Let X be a non-empty subset of positive integers. A group G is calledX−decomposable, if KG = X.In this talk, we report on the problem of classifying X−decomposablefinite groups, for some finite subset X of positive integers.

Galois closed sets of stronglyinvariant relations

F. Borner

An n–ary relation % ⊆ An on a base set A is called strongly invari-ant for a permutation g ∈ Sym(A) if g[%] = {g(a) | a ∈ %} = %.This relationship defines a Galois connection sInv–Aut between setsof permutations and sets of relations on A. The relation sets R withR = sInv Aut R are called Galois closed. We ask for a characterizationof these relation sets. The answer depends on the cardinality of thebase set A. If A is finite, then the Galois closed sets are exactly theKrasneralgebras, and also for countable A there exists a good charac-terization.In the general case, it was conjectured that a relation set is Galoisclosed if it is closed under arbitrary intersections and under all invari-ant operations, i.e. operations which commute with all permutations.Surprisingly, this conjecture is not true, as a counterexample by M.Goldstern and S. Shelah shows.

Simulation and Universal Machines

J. Buls

We investigate a specific three sorted algebra 〈Q,A, B, ◦, ∗〉, a so-called

Mealy machine: Q,A, B are finite, nonempty sets; Q × A◦−→ Q is a

function and Q×A∗−→ B is a surjective function. Let V = 〈Q,A, B〉,

′V = 〈′Q, ′A, ′B〉 be Mealy machines. A map µ = (µ1, µ2, µ3) :(Q,A, B) −→ (′Q, ′A, ′B) is called a homomorphism µ : V −→ ′Vif µ1(q ◦ a) = µ1(q) ◦ µ2(a) and µ3(q ∗ a) = µ1(q) ∗ µ2(a) for all(q, a) ∈ Q × A. A homomorphism µ is called a homomorphism ininput signals if Q = ′Q, B = ′B and µ1, µ3 are identity maps of setsQ and B respectively. Let T (Q) denotes the semigroup of all trans-formations on the set Q and let Fun(Q,B) denotes the set of all mapsfrom Q to B. On the set S(Q,B) = T (Q) × Fun(Q,B) define themultiplication by

(α1, β1)(α2, β2) = (α1α2, α1β2); α1, α2 ∈ T (Q), β1, β2 ∈ Fun(Q,B).

Under this operation S(Q,B) is easily seen to be a semigroup.

Proposition[1]. Let S(Q,B) = 〈Q,S(Q,B), B〉 be a Mealy ma-chine, where q ◦ (α, β) = α(q) and q ∗ (α, β) = β(q) for all q ∈ Q,(α, β) ∈ S(Q,B). For every Mealy machine V = 〈Q,A, B〉 there ex-ists a unique homomorphism in input signals µ : V −→ S(Q,B).

Let A∗ be a free monoid generated by A. We say that ′V simulates Vif there exist maps

Qh1−→ ′Q, A

h2−→ ′A, ′Bh3−→ B

such that the diagram

Q × A∗ ∗−→ B∗

h1 ↓ ↓ h2 ↑ h3′Q × ′A∗ ∗−→ ′B∗

commutes. That is, if

q ∗ u = h3(h1(q) ∗ h2(u)) for all (q, u) ∈ Q× A∗.

Corollary. S(Q,B) simulates every Mealy machine 〈Q, A, B〉.

Strong Regular n-full Varieties ofPartial Algebras

S. Busaman

A strongly n-full identity in the partial algebra A is pair of n-fullterms of type τ such that the induced term operations are equal aspartial operations. This concept will be generalized to strongly n-fullhyperidentities and to strongly n-full regular hyperidentities in partialalgebras. Moreover, we will characterize strong varieties of partial al-gebras where every regular n-full identity is a strongly n-full regularhyperidentity.

Characterization of Clones byHyperidentities

R. Butkote

Let C ⊆ O(n)(A) be a set of n-ary operations defined on the non-empty set A. We define an operation fA ∈ C to satisfy an equations ≈ t, where s, t are terms of type (n), if s ≈ t is satisfied as an iden-tity in the algebra (A; fA). This relation defines a Galois connectionbetween sets of n-ary operations and equations of type (n). We denotethe Galois-closed sets on the side of operations by FMod(n)Σ for a setΣ of equations of type (n) and prove some properties of these classeswith the aim to get an algebraic characterization. Especially we provethat FMod(n)Σ is a union of clones iff every equation from Σ is hyper-satisfied by all operations from FMod(n)Σ. Finally, we present severalexamples.

Forests in Connected Cubic Graphs

A. Chantasartrassmee, N. Punnim

For a graph G and F ⊆ V (G), if G[F ] is acyclic, then F is called aninduced forest of G. We denote by t(G) the cardinality of a maximuminduced forest of a graph G. It is easy to see that if G is a cubic graphof order n and F is a maximum induced forest of G, then G − F isalso an induced forest. Thus for any cubic graph G of order n, wehave t(G) ≥ n

cubic K ′4-free graph G of order n 6= 8, where K ′

When is a quasi-p-injective modulecontinuous ?

S. Chotchaisthit

It is well-known that every quasi-p-injective module has C2-condition.In this note, it is shown that for a quasi-p-injective module M whichis a self-generator, if M is projective, duo and semiperfect, then Mis continuous. As a special case we re-obtain a result of Puninski-Wisbauer-Yousif saying that, a semiperfect ring R is right continuousif it is right duo, right p-injective.Key words: quasi-p-injective, duo, semiperfect module and ring, con-tinuous module,AMS (1991) Mathematics Subject Classifications: 16D50, 16D70, 16D80Supported by The Royal Golden Jubilee Program

A Triple Construction of SkewNearlattices

J. Cırulis

A right normal skew nearlattice (rnsn-lattice, for short) is an algebra(L,∨,�), where (L,�) is a right normal band possessing the upperbound property w.r.t. its natural ordering, and ∨ is the correspondingpartial join operation. An rnsn-lattice with � commutative is knownas a nearlattice. Such partial algebras arise, e.g., in computer science– see [1,2].A triple is a system (T, V, θ), where T is a nearlattice, V is a set, andθ is a homomorphism of T into the dual of the lattice of equivalenceson V .We shall present two constructions, one of which transforms an rnsn-lattice into a triple, while the other transforms a triple into an rnsn-lattice, and discuss conditions on rnsn-lattices and triples under whichthese transformations are mutually inverse.

I. Dimitrova, I. Gyudzhenov

In this paper we consider the finite set X(<) = {1 < 2 < · · · < n}– ordered in the standard way. The full transformation α of X(<) isisotone if i ≤ j =⇒ iα ≤ jα.We denoted by On the semigroup of all isotone transformations α ofthe finite set X = {1, . . . , n} under the operation of compositionof transformations, by Jk = {α ∈ On : |Xα| = k}, (1 ≤ k ≤ n− 1)

Weighted Automata andQuantitative Logics

M. Droste

In automata theory, a classical result of Buchi states that the rec-ognizable languages are precisely the ones definable by sentences ofmonadic second order logic. We will present a generalization of thisresult to the context of weighted automata. A weighted automaton isa classical nondeterministic automaton in which each transition car-ries a weight describing e.g. the ressources used for its execution, thelength of time needed, or its reliability. The behaviour (language) ofsuch a weighted automaton is a function associating to each word theweight of its execution. We develop syntax and semantics of a quan-titative logics; the semantics counts ’how often’ a formula is true fora given word. Our main result shows that if the weights are takenin an arbitrary commutative semiring, then the functions associatedto weighted automata are precisely the ones definable by sentences ofour quantitative logic. (Joint work with P. Gastin (Paris).)

Bounded Lattices with AntitoneInvolutions and Properties ofMV-algebras

P. Emanovsky, I. Chajda

We introduce a bounded lattice L, where for each p from L there ex-ists an antitone involution on the interval [p,1]. We show that thereexists a binary operation ”.” on L such that L is term equivalent toan algebra A(L)= (L,.,0) (the assigned algebra to L) and we charac-terize A(L) by simple axioms similar to that of Abbott’s implicationalgebra. We define two new operations on A(L) which satisfy some ofthe axioms of MV-algebra. Finally we show what properties must besatisfied by L or A(L) to obtain all axioms of MV-algebra.

Matrix Theory of SymmetricFunctions

A. S. Gasparyan

For a given permutation group G ⊆ Sn we define the module MGn,k of

G-symmetric matrices. A k-dimensional cubical matrix A = ‖ai1...ik‖n1

we call G-symmetric if its elements satisfy the condition ai1...ik =aσ(i1),...σ(ik) for any σ ∈ G..The module MG

n =⊕

k MGn,k is closed under all the operations gen-

erated by (0, 0)- ,(0, 1)- and (1, 0)-multiplications that we call tensormultiplication, index-convolution and index-contraction correspond-ingly. Resulting algebraic system — G-symmetric matrix algebra oforder n — is the background of a new theory of symmetric functions.The algebraic system of newely defined G-symmetric functions is morerich than usual algebra of symmetric functions that corresponds toG = Sn, and generated, in fact, only by (0, 0)-multiplication and ad-dition.Then we introduce more general algebra, the algebra of Γ-symmetricfunctions of several blocks of variables, where Γ is a subgroup ofSn1×· · ·×Snd

. Corresponding base matrix algebra — Γ-symmetric ma-trix algebra — consists of (nonnecessarily cubical) multidimensionalmatrices that may have different symmetries in different directions,being e.g. G(α)-symmetric in (α)-block direction.

Q-independent Subsets in StoneAlgebras and Double Stone Algebras

A. Chwastyk, K. G lazek

A notion of independece with repect to a family Q of mappings (de-fined on subsets of A) into A, Q-independence for short, is a com-mon way of defining almost all known notions of independence. Anon-empty subset X of the carrier A of an algebra A is called Q-independent if the equality of two term operations f and g of thealgebra A on any finite system of elements a1, . . . , an of X impliesf(p(a1), . . . , p(an)) = g(p(a1), . . . , p(an)) for any mapping p ∈ Q. Weinvestigate independent subsets in Stone algebras and double Stonealgebras for some specified families Q of mappings (e.g. M , S, S0,and A1).

Power Hypersubstitutions

P. Glubudom

Unitary Menger algebras of rank n are algebras of type (n+1, 0, . . . , 0)and were introduce by K. Menger ([Men; ]). The (n+1)-ary operationSn and the nullary operations λ1, . . . , λn satisfy the following axioms:

(C1) §n(T, §n(F1, T1, . . . , Tn), . . . , §n(Fn, T1, . . . , Tn))≈ §n(§n(T, F1, . . . , Fn), T1, . . . , Tn), n ∈ N+.

(C2) §n(T, λ1, . . . , λn) = T, n ∈ N+.

(C3) §n(λi, T1, . . . , Tn) = Ti for 1 ≤ i ≤ n, n ∈ N+.

Let Wτ (X) be the set of all terms of type τ and let P(Wτ (X)) be itspower set. Then we define an n + 1)-ary operation Sn on P(Wτ (X))and show that the algebra (P(Wτ (Xn)); Sn, {x1}, . . . , {xn}) satisfies(C1), (C2), (C3). Power hypersubstitutions are mappings which assignto each n-ary operation symbol of the type set of n-ary terms of thistype. Using the operations Sn we extend power hyper substitutiuonsto mappings defined on P(Wτ (X)) and show that these extensions areprecisely the endomorphisms of (P(Wτ (Xn)); Sn, {x1}, . . . , {xn}).

M-hyperquasivarieties

E. Graczynska, D. Schweigert

The aim of the talk is to generalize teh notions of quasiidentity andquasivariety of [6] and [9] to the notion of M-hyperquasiidentity andM-hyperquasivariety. A quasi-identity e is satisfied in a class V ofalgebras of a given type, if and only if it is satisfied in all algebras Abelonging to V .

DEFINITION 1. In the sequel, a hyperquasi-identity e is formally thesame as a quasi-identity, for a given monoid M of hypersubstitutionsof a given type. We define an M-hypersatisfaction. and say then, thate is an M-hyper-quasi-identity of A. A hyper-quasi-identity e is M-hyper-satisfied (holds) in a class V if and only if it is M-hypersatisfiedin any algebra of V . We recall the notion of a M-derived algebra andthe M-derived class of algebras of a given type. For a class K of alge-bras of type τ we denote by DM(K) the class of all M-derived algebras(of type τ) of K.A class K is called M-derivably closed if and only if DM(K) is includedin K, for a given monoid M of hypersubstitutions of type τ . For agiven algebra A we denote by QId(A) and MHQId(A) the set of allquasi-identities and hyper-quasi-identities satisfied (M-hypersatisfied)in A, respectively. Similarly for a class K, QId(K) and MHQId(K)denote the set of all quasi-identities and hyper-quasi-identities satis-fied (M-hypersatisfied) in K, respectively. By Q(K) and MHQ(K)we denote the class of all algebras of a given type satisfying (M-hypersatisfying) all the quasi-identities and M-hyper-quasi-identitiesof K, respectively.

PROPOSITION 1. Given a class K of algebras of type τ . Then thefollowing equality holds: MHQId(K) = QId(DM)(K). We reformu-late the notion of quasivariety invented by A. I. Mal’cev [13] [p. 210]and hyperquasivariety of [9] for the case of M-hyper-quasivariety of a

given type in a natural way.

THEOREM 1. A quasivariety K of algebras given type is a M-hyperquasivariety if and only if it is M-deriverably closed.

THEOREM2. A class K of algebras of a given type is an M-hyperquasivarietyif and only if Ki) is ultraclosed;ii) is heraditery;iii) is multiplicatively closed;iv) contains a trivial system;v) is M-deriverably closed.

THEOREM 3. For every class K of algebras of a given type we have

MHQ(K) = SPrDM(K0)

Quasi equational logic was considered by many authors. We use thenotions of [6]. We reformulate his Theorem 2.3.5 of [6] in the followingway:

THEOREM 4. A set Σ is a set of M-hyperquasi-identities of a class Kof algebras of type τ if and only if it is closed under the substitutionrule, M-hypersubstitution rule, the cut rule and the extension rule.By MHQ we denote the M-hyperquasi-identty logic based on therules above. For a set Σ of hyperquasi-identities of a given type τ ,MHQMod(Σ) denotes the class of all algebras A which M-hypersatisfyall the elements of Σ. Then the completeness theorem may be ex-pressed in the following way:

THEOREM 5. A hyperquasi-identity is M-hypersatisfied in MHMod(Σ)if and only if it is deriverable from σ in MHQ.

Symmetry Properties ofTetraammine Platinum(II) with C2v

and C4v Point Groups

M. Hamadanian, A, R. Ashrafi

Let G be a weighted graph with the adjacency matrix A = [aij]. AnEuclidean graph associated to a molecule is defined by a weightedgraph with the adjacency matrix D = [dij], where for i, j, dij is theEuclidean distance between the nuclei i and j. In this matrix dii canbe taken as zero if all the nuclei are equivalent. Otherwise, one mayintroduce different weights for different nuclei. Balasubramanian com-puted the Euclidean graphs and its automorphism groups for benzene,eclipsed and staggered forms of ethane and eclipsed and staggeredforms of ferrocene (see Chem. Phys. Letters 232(1995), 415-423). Inthis work a simple method is described, by means of which it is possibleto calculate the automorphism group of weighted graphs. We applythis method to compute the symmetry of tetraammine platinum(II)with C2v and C4v point groups.

Keywords and Phrases: Weighted graph, Euclidean graph, tetraam-mine platinum(II).

Large Varieties of Lattice-OrderedGroups and MV-Algebras

W. C. Holland

We will discuss the close connection between lattice-ordered groupsand generalized MV-algebras. Every variety (equationally definedclass) of lattice-ordered groups gives rise to a corresponding variety ofgeneralized MV-algebras. But because the language of MV-algebrasis stronger than that of lattice-ordered groups, there are many morevarieties of generalized MV-algebras. In particular, there is a uniquemaximal proper variety of lattice-ordered groups, the normal valuedvariety. But there are infinitely many varieties of generalized MV-algebras which contain the normal valued variety.

Interval subalgebras of BL-algebras

M. Hycko

We define a BL-algebraic structure on subintervals [a, b] of BL-algebras.First, we restrict the operations to subintervals of the [a, 1] type andthen to [0, a] type. The desired result, for [a, b], is obtained as the com-bination of the previous two types. Although, the case [0, a] imposes aspecial condition, it turns out, after the analysis of the structure theo-rems of BL-algebras, that each BL-algebra satisfies it. Similar resultswith additional assumptions can be proved for pseudo BL-algebras,(commutative) bounded residuated `-monoids. Obtained operations,when restricted to (pseudo) MV-algebras, coincide with the results ofJ. Jakubık [1] and Chajda, Kuhr [2, 3].

A Characterization of PSU(29, q)

A.Iranmanesh

For an integer n let π(n) be the set of prime divisors of n. If G isa finite group, then π(G) is defined to be π(|G|). The prime graphΓ(G) of a group G is a graph whose vertex set is π(G), and two dis-tinct promes p and q are lined by an edge iff G contains an elementof order pq. Let πi, i = 1, 2, . . . , t(G) be the connected components ofΓ(G). For |G| even, π1 will be the connected component containing2. Then |G| can be expressed as a product of some positive integersmi, i = 1, 2, . . . , t(G) with π(mi) = πi. The integers mi are called theorder components of G. The set of all order components of G will bedenoted by OC(G). If the order of G is even, we will assume that m1

is the even order component and m2, . . . ,mt(G) will be the odd ordercomponents of G.In this paper we prove that PSU(29, q) are also uniquely determinedby their order components, that is, we have;

Main Theorem. Let G be a finite group and M = PSU(29, q). ThenOC(G) = OC(M) if and only if G ∼= M .As a corollary of this result, the validity of a conjecture of J. G.Thompson on PSU(29, q) is obtained:

Thompson’s conjecture:If G is a finite group with Z(G) = 1 andM is a non-abelian simple group satisfying N(G) = N(M) whereN(G) = {n | G has a conjugacy class of size n}, then G ∼= M .

Automata and Groups

M. Ito

An automaton A = (S, X, δ) consists of the following data: (1) S isa finite nonempty set, called a state set. (2) X is a finite nonemptyset, called an alphabet. (3) δ is a function, called a state transitionfunction of S ×X into S.

Let A = (S, X, δ) be an automaton and let ρ be a mapping of S intoitself. If ρ(δ(s, a)) = δ(ρ(s), a) holds for any s ∈ S and any a ∈ X,then ρ is called an endomomorphism of A. If ρ is a bijection, then ρ iscalled an automorphism of A. The set E(A) of all endomorphisms ofA forms a monoid and the set G(A) of all automorphisms of A formsa group.

An automaton A = (S, X, δ) is said to be strongly connected if forany pair of states s, t ∈ S there exists an element x ∈ X∗ such thatδ(s, x) = t.

It can be easily seen that an endomorphism of a strongly connectedautomaton is surjective and hence bijective. Thus E(A) = G(A) fora strongly connected automaton A.

In the lecture, we provide several properties of automorphism groupsof automata, especially strongly connected automata. We also con-sider an inverse problem, i.e. we will determine all strongly connectedautomata whose automorphism groups are isomorphic to a given finitegroup.

Globals of Unary Algebras

D. Jakubıkova-Studenovska ,J. Herchl

For an algebraic structure A we denote by P (A) the global of A. Thisnotion was studied for several types of algebraic structures; for a com-prehensive list of papers cf. Bosnjak, Madarasz (Algebra and DiscreteMath., 2003). The question on the reconstructability of a finite unaryalgebra from its global is dealt with. Drapal (Czechoslovak Math. J.,1985) proved that the class of all finite monounary algebras is globallydetermined. We prove that the class of all finite unary algebras isnot globally determined. Particularly, 7-element cyclic algebras A1,A2 with two unary operations are described such that A1, A2 are notisomorphic and P (A1),P (A2) are isomorphic.

Local Polynomial Functions on theRing of Integers

M. Kapl

For an algebra A and a natural number k, we take Pk(A) to be theset of all k-ary polynomial functions on A. For a natural number m,we let LmPk(A) be the set of all functions from Ak to A that canbe interpolated by a k-ary polynomial function at each collection ofno more than m points of Ak. These functions are called k-ary localpolynomial functions with respect to m points. We will study the casethat A is the ring of integers, I =< Z; +, · >. We give an explicitdescription of all functions in LPk(I) =

⋂m∈N LmPk(I). Moreover we

will show that the absolute values of every function f ∈ LmP1(I),which is not a polynomial, will increase faster than the exponentialfunction b(n) = (1

On Flatness Properties of S-posets

M. Kilp

Let S be a partially ordered monoid, or briefly, pomonoid. A rightS-poset (often denoted AS) is a poset A together with a right S-action(a, s) 7→ as that is monotone in both arguments and that satisfies theconditions a(st) = (as)t and a1 = 1 for all a ∈ A, s, t ∈ S. Left S-posets SB are defined analogously, and the left or right S-posets formcategories, S-POS and POS-S, whose morphisms are the monotonemaps that preserve the S-action. A tensor product AS ⊗ SB exists(a poset) that has the customary universal property with respect tobalanced, bi-monotone maps from A×B into posets. Various flatnessproperties of AS can be defined in terms of the functor AS ⊗− fromS-POS into POS. More specifically, an S-poset AS is called flat ifthe induced morphism AS ⊗ SB → AS ⊗ SC is injective whenever

SB → SC is an embedding in S-POS : this means that, for all SBand all a, a′ ∈ A and b, b′ ∈ B, if a ⊗ b = a′ ⊗ b′ in A ⊗ B then thesame equality holds in A⊗(Sb∪Sb′). AS is called (principally) weaklyflat if the induced morphism above is injective for all embeddings of(principal) left ideals into SS. Similarly, AS is called po-flat if thefunctor AS ⊗ − preserves embeddings: for this definition, replace =by ≤ in the description above. Weak and principally weak versions ofpo-flatness are defined in an obvious way. We present examples thatdistinguish between various types of flatness and the corresponding,generally stronger, notions of po-flatness.A study of absolute flatness for pomonoids is initiated: a monoid (resp.pomonoid) S is called right absolutely flat if all right S-acts (resp.S-posets) are flat. The findings for absolute flatness of pomonoidsare markedly different from the corresponding unordered results. Forexample, every inverse monoid is absolutely flat. In contrast, however,a semilattice with identity, considered as a pomonoid, is absolutely flatif, and only if, it has at most two elements.

Complete Multilattices

J. Klimes

Our aim in this talk is to introduce a kind of completeness notion forpartially ordered sets, so called complete multilattices. Various inter-esting examples show that complete multilattices arise quite natural inthe theory of partially ordered sets and are generalizations of completelattices. We have studied some special classes of complete multilatticeswith respect to the fixed point property. We prove that a completemultilattice has the fixed point property for almost comparable order-preserving mappings. On the other hand, we discuss characterizationsof multilattice completeness which are connected with the existenceof fixed points for mappings. Especially, we show that a multilat-tice is complete if it has the fixed point property for almost compa-rable order-preserving mappings. Thus the fixed point property forthese mappings characterize multilattice completeness whereas order-preserving mappings do not. If time permits, we would like to presenta description of all retracts of these mappings on a complete multilat-tice.

Near-Semirings in Generalized LinearSequential Machines

K. V. Krishna, N. Chatterjee

Holcombe used the theory of near-rings to study linear sequential ma-chines. There a radical of near-rings has been introduced to test theminimality of linear sequential machines. The construction of the rad-ical is motivated by his result:Let M = (Q,A, B, F, G) be a linear sequential machine. If M isminimal then there is no proper nonzero N-submodule K of Q suchthat G0(K) = {0}, where N is the syntactic near-ring of M andG0(q) = G(q, 0) ∀q ∈ Q.However, with the hypothesis of the above result, one can observe thatthere is no proper nonzero N -submodule of Q. This observation en-ables us to introduce a new radical in a more general setup. We carryout this work for generalized linear sequential machines, that are ob-tained by replacing modules with semimodules in linear sequentialmachines. Even in this generalization, without losing much informa-tion, we could get all the results that have been obtained by Holcombefor linear sequential machines. Moreover the radical obtained is muchsimpler.In this work, first we study the properties of near-semirings to in-troduce the radical. Then we observe the role of near-semirings ingeneralized linear sequential machines, and we test the minimalitythrough the above radical.

Order Affine Completeness ofLattices with Boolean CongruenceLattices

V. Kuchmei, K. Kaarli

A lattice L is called (locally) order affine complete, if all order andcongruence preserving functions on L are (local) polynomial functionsof that lattice. The following result was proved by R. Wille for thefinite case and generalized by K. Kaarli and A. F. Pixley to lattices offinite height.Theorem A lattice L of finite height is locally order affine completeiff every finitely generated tolerance of L is congruence generated. Itwas also proved by K. Kaarli that the characterization of locally orderaffine complete lattices of finite height can be reduced to subdirectproducts of two SI lattices. In view of these results we prove the fol-lowing

Theorem Let L1 and L2 be simple lattices of finite height and L be anontrivial subdirect product in L1×L2. Then L is locally order affinecomplete if and only if L1 and L2 are tolerance trivial and L is of theone of the following two types:

1. L is maximal in L1 × L2;

2. L = K1 ∩K2, where lattices K1 and K2 are maximal in L1×L2

and (0, 1) /∈ L, (1, 0) /∈ L.

Further we study maximal subdirect products in L1 × L2, where L1

and L2 are simple modular lattices of finite height.

Commutative pseudo BCK-algebras

J. Kuhr

A pseudo BCK-algebra is an algebra A of type (2,2,0) satisfying certainquasi-identities; if the binary operations coincide then A is a classicalBCK-algebra. Thus pseudo BCK-algebras generalize BCK-algebrasin the same way in which e.g. pseudo MV-algebras generalize MV-algebras. Commutative pseudo BCK-algebras are a natural extensionof commutative BCK-algebras. We show that they form a varietyand characterize representable commutative pseudo BCK-algebras andthose with the relative cancellation property. We prove that the latticeof all deductive systems of such a pseudo BCK-algebra is isomorphicto the lattice of all convex l-subgroups of some lattice-ordered group.

Categories of Fuzzy BCK-algebras

C. Lele

The notion of fuzzy subsets of a set was introduced by Zadeh in 1965. Since then, the study of fuzzy subsets and its applications to variousmathematical settings has given rise to what is nowadays known asfuzzy mathematics.In the first paper on fuzzy BCK-algebra in 1991 X.Ougen only speaks,based on Zadeh’s definition, of fuzzy algebraic sub-structures but notof fuzzy objects in their own right. In this note, we define a fuzzyBCK-algebras as a pair X = (X, fX) where X is a BCK-algebras andfX : X → [0, 1] is a function from X to the interval [0, 1]. Moreover, wedefine a fuzzy BCK-homomorphism f : X → Y (X = (X, fX), Y =(Y, fY ) fuzzy BCK-algebras) to be a BCK- homomorphism f : X → Ysuch that fX(x) ≤ fY (f(x)) holds for all x ∈ X. Fuzzy BCK-algebraare defined, and maps (“homomorphisms”) between them. So we haveobjects and maps, this make a category. The purpose of this paper istto initiate the study of some properties of this Category.

On the Category of Hypermodules

A. Madanshekaf

The theory of hyperstructures has been introduced by Marty in 1934during the 8th congress of the Scandinavian Mathematicians [2]. Martyintroduced the notion of a hypergroup and then many researchers havebeen worked on this new topic of modern algebra and developed it.The notion of a hyperfield and a hyperring was studied first by Kras-ner [1] and then some authors followed him, for example see [6]. Thecanonical hypergroups are a special type of hypergroups. Initiallythey derived from the additive part of the hyerfield and hyperring.The name canonical has been given to these hypergroups by J. Mit-tas, who is the first one that studied them extensively [5]. Againin the context of canonical hypergroup some mathematicians(e.g. [3])studied hypermodules whose additive structure is just a canonical hy-pergroup.Considering the class of hypermodules over a fixed hyperring R andthe class of all homomorphisms among hypermodules together withthe composition of the mappings, knowing that the composite of twohomomorphisms is again a homomorphism and for any hypermodulesA over the hyperring R, idA : A → A, id(a) = a is a homomorphismamong hypermodules, we can construct a category which is denotedby Hmod.In this talk some aspects of hypermodules are studied, We will showthat the category Hmod is exact in the sense that it is normal andconormal with kernels and cokernels in which every arrow f has afactorization f = νq, with ν a monomorphism and q an epimor-phism.(See [4]) Two of the most used results of the paper are thosewhich state that the monomorphisms of Hmod(in the categoricalsense) are the one to one homomorphisms and the epimorphisms ofHmod are the onto homomorphisms.AMS subject classification: 20N20Key words: Hypermodules, Normal and Conormal Category, Exact

Rational and Recognizable PictureSeries

I. Maeurer

Given an alphabet A, one can consider the set of all two-dimensionalrectangular arrays of letters in A. In the literature there are severalautomata models to define a robust set of “recognizable” picture lan-guages; it coincides with the set of languages corresponding to pro-jections of regular expressions of a certain type (Kleene-like theorem).As an extension, we define picture series mapping pictures to elementsof a semiring. It could be interpreted e.g. as the intensity of light ofa picture. Now, it can be shown that series defined by “weightedautomata” over pictures and several other devices with weights (e.g.weighted tiling systems) coincide with projections of rational pictureseries (Kleene-Schuetzenberger theorem).

Given a category C and T : C → C an endofunctor. It is known that ifC has pullbacks and if T (weakly) preserves these pullbacks, then thecategory CT has pullbacks. We establish the existence of (generalized)pullbacks under the hypotheses which are different of that mentionnedabove. Under these new hypotheses, we show that if C has ihe exact-ness property then so has CT .

Nilpotent Elements and Idempotentsin Commutative Group Rings

N. A. Nachev

Let R and L be commutative rings with identity and R ⊆ L. Thenwe say that L is an extension of R. Let α ∈ L. Denote by R[α] thesmallest subring of L containing R and α. In this paper we consideran extension R[α] when α is an algebraic element over R and theminimal polynomial f(x) of α is monic. In this direction the followingtwo problems arise in a natural way:(i) If R does not contain nilpotent elements, does it follow that thisproperty holds for R[α]?(ii) If R does not have nontrivial idempotents, does it follow, that itis fulfilled for R[α].We give a positive answer to this two problems under some conditionsof the polynomial f(x).

Analytical Derivatives of MolecularIntegrals for Calculation of EnergyComponents

M. Oftadeh

Chemical calculations are based on using an estimated basis set andthen omptimizing parameters including the basis set in order to ob-tain the best possible results such as energy, force constant, structureelectric and magnetic properties. Using the method, which could cal-culate such properties with more accuracy and less time consuming bycomputers, is very interesting for most of the quantum chemists. Fromoptimizing the parameter point of view, applying the subroutines inwhich analytical derivatives instead of numerical derivatives in addi-tion to decreasing the number of iteration steps, it leads to betterorientation through which one can obtain direct optimizing process.In the most of quantum chemical problems, the total energy functionfor a given system by a desired method is selected for optimization.The explicit expression of the energy for the most of existing meth-ods in quantum chemistry including FSGO method can be derivedaccording to the number of parameters. With the help of explicit ex-pression of total energy in FSGO method which is based on one- andtwo-electronic integrals, the total first and second derivatives of eachof the existing elements in this expression with respect to all exist-ing parameters can be obtains which are comparable with numericalmethods such as finite difference (FD) method. From speed of calcu-lation first and second derivatives and independence of the results onany kind of parameters similar to selected increments in FD methodpoint of view, this comparison is of outmost importance. All first andsecond derivatives of each components of total energy expression withrespect to all parameters for FSGO method have been derived analyt-ically and programmed in FORTRAN for PC computers.

M-solid Pseudovarieties and GaloisConnections

B. Pibaljommee

The concept of a solid pseudovariety, indroduced by Graczynska, Poescheland Volkov, can be easily generalized to M-solid pseudovarieties. Us-ing identity filters we will give a characterization of M-solid pseudova-rieties by Galois connections. Finally we prove that the lattice of allM-solid pseudovarieties forms a complete sublattice of the lattice ofall pseudovarieties.

Test Elements and the RetractTheorem for Monounary Algebras

J. Pocs, D. Jakubıkova-Studenovska

An element t of a structure A is said to be a test element if for anyendomorphism φ of A, φ(t) = t implies that φ is an automorphism.The term “the Retract Theorem” has been applied in the literature inconnection with group theory. We prove that the Retract Theorem isvalid (i) for each finite structure, and (ii) for each monounary algebra.On the other hand, we show that this theorem fails to be valid, ingeneral, for algebras of the form A = (A, F ), where each f ∈ F isunary and card F > 1.

Unary Operations with longPre-periods

Ch. Ratanaprasert

It is well-known that the congruence lattice ConA of an algebra A isuniquely determined by the unary polynomial operations of A. Let Abe a finite algebra with |A| = n. If Imf = A or |Imf | = 1 for everyunary polynomial operation f of A, then A is called a permutationalgebra. Permutation algebras play an important role in tame congru-ence theory. If f : A → A is not a permutation then A ⊃ Imf andthere is a least natural number λ(f) with Imfλ(f) = Imfλ(f)+1. Weconsider unary operations with λ(f) = n−1 for n ≥ 2 and λ(f) = n−2for n ≥ 3 and ask for equivalence relations on A which are invariantunder such unary operations. As application we show that every fi-nite group which has a unary polynomial operation with one of theseproperties is simple or has only normal subgroups of index 2.

n-distributivity in Formal ConceptAnalysis

H. Reppe

The n-distributivity was introduced by A. Huhn and is a general-ization of the distributivity law for lattices. We restrict our atten-tion to the finite case and establish via Formal Concept Analysis an-other characterization. This can be seen in the maximal size of thepremise in implications with proper premise. Analogeously, the dualn-distributivity strongly relates to minimal non-trivial join-covers inlattices. In my talk I will describe the n-distributivity from the equa-tional theory point of view as well as lattice theory and FCA.

Ordered Groups - Recent Results

A. Rhemtulla

An ordered group is a group G together with a total order relation≤ on the set G such that the order relation is preserved under groupoperation. In other words, for all a, b, x, y in G, a ≤ b implies xay ≤xby. Examples of ordered groups include: The additive group of realnumbers.; The group of unitriangular matrices over ordered numbersystems such as the integers or rational numbers or real numbers;Torsion free nilpotent groups; free soluble groups and free groups.We will present the basic structure of ordered groups followed by recentresults and open questions.Some of these are:(1) orderable groups that can not be embedded in divisible orderablegroups.(2) Structure of orderable groups in which every order is central.There are groups which admit only finitely many different total orders.For instance, there are precisely two ways to totally order the infinitecyclic group. We pose the question“which groups admit only a finitenumber of orders?” For some classes of groups the answer is knownbut not in general. There is a related question,“Can the order on agroup G be uniquely determined by a given order on a finite subset ofG?” The answer to this question is yes for those groups which admitonly a finite number of orders. Are these the only groups where theanswer to the second question is in the affirmative?Find structural results for orderable groups having additional proper-ties such as finiteness of rank or Engel condition.

Coloured Terms andMulti-hypersubstitutions

S. Shtrakov

We consider the concepts of coloured terms and multi-hypersubstituti-ons. Let Q ⊂ N be an non-empty set of natural numbers, calledset of colours. Let t ∈ Wτ (X) be a term of type τ . Any functionαt : Sub(t) → Q is called coloring function or coloration of the term t.The set W c

τ (X) of coloured terms consists of all possible pairs 〈t, αt〉.The set of fundamental coloured terms is F c = {〈f, q〉|f ∈ F, q ∈Q}. Hypersubstitutions of type τ are mappings which assign to eachoperation symbol f ∈ F terms σ(f) of type τ , which have the samearity as the operation symbol f . The set of all hypersubstitutions oftype τ is denoted by Hyp(τ). Let ρ be a mapping of Q into Hyp(τ) i.e.ρ : Q → Hyp(τ). Any such mapping is called multi-hypersubstitutionof type τ. The set of all multi-hypersubstitutions of type τ is denotedby HypQ(τ). A multi-hypersubstitution ρ is a mapping of the set offundamental coloured terms into the set W c

τ (X). The extension ρ :W c

τ (X) → W cτ (X) of a multi-hypersubstitution ρ on the set of all

coloured terms, is defined and some internal properties of the monoidHypQ(τ) are studied.

Two-generated Graded Algebras

E. Shirikov

Let A0 = K be a field and A =∞⊕

n=0An the associative graded algebra

generated over K by elements X,Y ∈ A1. Suppose that dim A2 = 3.We prove that if K has no quadratic extensions, A is a domain andeither dim An+1 = n + 1 or A is a central algebra then A is either thealgebra of quantum polynomials in two variables

Λ1 (K, λ) = K 〈X, Y 〉/(Y X − λXY ), λ ∈ K∗,

or Jordanian plane

Λ2 (K) = K 〈X, Y 〉/(Y X −XY − Y 2).

In the case when dim An+1 = n + 1 we also find a criterion for Ato be a domain. We also study some properties of Jordanian plane.We describe its center, derivations and the Lie algebra of outer deriva-tions for an arbitrary field K. In the case charK = 0 we describe primespectrum, the group of automorphisms, the endomorphisms with non-trivial kernels. Note that similar problems for quantum polynomialshave been considered by V. A. Artamonov [1], [2], [3] and some prop-erties of quantum polynomials are also studied in details in [4].

Tensor Product in the CategoryJCPos

S. Solovjovs, H. Herrlich

The binary tensor product in the category of modules over a com-mutative ring is widely known in algebra. However, the notion canbe considered in any category as a left adjoint to the internal Hom-functor. We are interested in the construct (JCPos, |− |) of completelattices and join-preserving maps. It is possible to get an explicitdescription of the tensor product functor for this category.”s”s

Tame Order-primal Algebras

C. Rattanaprasert and R. Srithus

Let h: A → B be a non-constant homomorphism. It is well-knownthat h(A) is a subalgebra of B whose cardinality is greater than 2. IfA is a tame algebra, we give a necessary and sufficient condition thatall images of A under homomorphisms are tame. An order-primalalgebra A corresponding to an ordered set (A;≤) is an algebra suchthat T (A) = Pol(A). It was shown in [3] that if (A;≤) is either anantichain or connected, then A is simple. We can prove that an an-tichain or a connected property is a necessary and sufficient conditionfor A to be tame. Moreover, we can prove that every simple algebrais tame. By these results, we can characterize all order-primal alge-bras which are tame; that is, an order-primal algebra A is tame if andonly if (A;≤) is either an antichain or connected. Furthermore, wecan prove that every order-primal algebra is non-abelian and it hasa minimal set whose cardinality is 2. In Tame Congruence Theorey,they charactrize all minimal algebras by assigning type 1-5 and everytame algebra A has at least one type which is the same type of itsminimal algebra. In [5], they characterize all algebras to be abelianby using properties of types of an algebra; that is, an algebra A isabelian if and only if type A ∈ {1, 2}. By this result, every type ofan order-primal algebra is not type 1 or 2 which implies that type{A} ⊆ {3, 4, 5}. We can characterize all types of a tame order-primalalgebra A by the property of the ordered set (A;≤) corresponding toA; that is, (A;≤) is an antichain if and only if type {A} = {3} and(A;≤) is connected if and only if type {A} = {4}. Moreover, we canfind all possible types of a variety generated by an order-primal alge-bra A and give some sufficient conditions that V (A) is residually small.

Homomorphic Images of SubdirectlyIrreducible Algebras

D. Stanovsky

Homomorphic Images of Subdirectly Irreducible Algebras Abstract:A couple of papers about homomorphic images of subdirectly irre-ducible algebras appeared recently. Let me mention, for instance,that an algebra with at least one at least binary operation is a factorof a subdirectly irreducible algebra (over its monolith), if and only ifit has non-empty intersection of ideals. A similar result was obtainedalso for finite unary algebras. I’ll provide an overview of results anda particular attention will be given to a recent proof (obtained withRalph McKenzie) that every quasigroup is isomorphic to a factor of asubdirectly irreducible quasigroup over its monolith.

Varieties of Recognizable Subsets

M. Steinby

The Variety Theorem of S. Eilenberg (1976) establishes a correspon-dence between all varieties of finite monoids and certain families ofregular languages called ∗-varieties, or alternatively, between all vari-eties of finite semigroups and the so-called +-varieties of regular lan-guages. By describing precisely the families of regular languages thatcan be characterized by syntactic monoids or by syntactic semigroups,it forms a generally accepted common framework for the algebraic clas-sification theory of regular languages. The original variety theory hasbeen extended, generalized and adapted in many ways. In particular,there are a few different variety theorems for regular tree languages.On the other hand, one can define the recognizable subsets of an ar-bitrary algebra in such a way that regular languages and regular treelanguages are obtained as special cases. In this lecture we outline avariety theorem for recognizable subsets of finitely generated free al-gebras over a given variety V of a finite type. It shows how varietiesof recognizable sets, varieties of finite algebras contained in V andvarieties of finite congruences on the free algebras correspond to eachother. The two forms of Eilenberg’s theorem as well as a variety the-orem for tree languages are special instances of this general theorem.Finally, we shall note a few recent developments that mostly concernvarieties of tree languages.

Tree-Based Numbers: HigherArithmetic Operations and DivisionTrees

H. Trappmann

I introduce my research regarding tree-based number systems. Tree-based means that instead of beginning the number constructions (nat-ural to fractional to real) with the natural numbers we begin themwith (specific) binary trees. This leads to interesting constructions(like “division trees”) and opens a variety of research possibilities. Italso sheds light on how to uniquely extend the definitions of hyper-powers to the continuous case.

Symmetric Groupoids and Cores

A. Vanzurova

Left symmetric, left distributive and idempotent groupoids, SID, arisee.g. as cores of Bol loops. But the class of Bol loop cores is not closedunder subalgebras, hence is no variety, even no quasi-variety. It ap-pears that cores of groups generate the variety SID, while abeliangroup cores generate its medial (entropic) subvariety. A core of agroup is medial iff the group is nilpotent of class at most two. A nec-essary and sufficient condition is formulated for a Bol loop to have amedial core.

IA-Automorphisms of the FreeSolvable Sp-permutable Algebra of aFinite Rank

P. B. Zhdanovich

Let S = S0 ∗ Sp ∪ {1} be a free product of semigroups S0 and Sp

with adjoined unit element 1. By Sp-permutable algebra we mean analgebra A of type 〈S, p〉 such that S acts on A and ternary opera-tion p satisfies two Mal’cev identities p(x, x, y) = p(y, x, x) = y. Wealso assume that p(s(x), s(y), s(z)) = s(p(x, y, z)) for all s in Sp. ByMal’cev’s theorem the variety V of all Sp-permutable algebras is con-gruence permutable. Thus we can apply the theory of commutatorsof congruences [2]. We consider the variety Vk of k-step solvable V -algebras for each positive k. In [3] we used Sp-permutable algebrasfor a construction of free abelian extensions and free solvable alge-bras in an arbitrary congruence-permutable variety V . Let Fk be afree Vk-algebra of a finite rank n. An automorphism of Fk is an IA-automorphism if it induces an identical automorphism of Fk−1. Weexplore some properties of IA-automorphisms of FK including theirJacobian matrix over a preadditive category associated with Fk−1 [1].We also define the elementary automorphism of Fk and investigateconditions under which an IA-automorphism of Fk is tame, i.e. it is aproduct of elementary automorphisms.
