AbstractWe study the two model-theoretic concepts of weak saturation and weak amalgamation property in the context of accessible categories. We relate these two concepts providing sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of weakly saturated objects of an accessible category ${\cal K}$. We discuss the implications of this fact in classical model theory.

In the theory of denotational semantics of programming languages, several authors have constructed various kinds of universal domains. We present here a categorical generalization of a well-known result in model theory, which we use to characterize large classes of reasonable categories that contain universal homogeneous objects. The existence of such objects is characterized by the condition that the finite objects in the category satisfy the amalgamation property. We derive from this the existence and uniqueness of universal homogeneous domains for several categories of bifinite domains, with embedding-projection-pairs as morphisms. We also obtain universal homogeneous objects for various categories of stable bifinite domains. In contrast, several categories of event domains and concrete domains and the category of all coherent Scott-domains do not contain universal homogeneous objects. Finally, we show that all our constructions can be performed effectively.

AbstractThis paper studies definability within the theory of institutions, a version of abstract model theory that emerged in computing science studies of software specification and semantics. We generalise the concept of definability to arbitrary logics, formalised as institutions, and we develop three general definability results. One generalises the classical Beth theorem by relying on the interpolation properties of the institution. Another relies on a meta Birkhoff axiomatizability property of the institution and constitutes a source for many new actual definability results, including definability in (fragments of) classical model theory. The third one gives a set of sufficient conditions for ‘borrowing’ definability properties from another institution via an ‘adequate’ encoding between institutions.The power of our general definability results is illustrated with several applications to (many-sorted) classical model theory and partial algebra, leading for example to definability results for (quasi-)varieties of models or partial algebras. Many other applications are expected for the multitude of logical systems formalised as institutions from computing science and logic.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finitely accessible category with products, and assume that its symmetric category [Formula: see text] is also finitely accessible and pure semisimple. We study necessary and sufficient conditions in both categories for [Formula: see text] (and hence [Formula: see text]) to be of locally finite representation type. In particular, we obtain a generalization of Herzog's criterion for finite representation type of left pure semisimple and right artinian rings. As an application, we prove that a left pure semisimple ring R with enough idempotents which has a self-duality is of locally finite representation type if and only if it is left locally finite.

We generalize the notion of coupled fixed (or best proximity) points for cyclic ordered pairs of maps to p-cyclic ordered pairs of maps. We find sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the coupled fixed (or best proximity) points. We illustrate the results with an example that covers a wide class of maps.

AbstractWe give some sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the solution of a higher-order linear differential equation with unbounded coefficients in the Hilbert space. We obtain some estimates for the weighted norms of the solution and its derivatives. Using these estimates, we show the conditions for the compactness of some integral operators associated with the resolvent.

Abstract Let $\mathcal {W}^{n}$ W n be the set of smooth complete simply connected n-dimensional manifolds without conjugate points. The Euclidean space and the hyperbolic space are examples of these manifolds. Let $W\in \mathcal {W}^{n}$ W ∈ W n and let A and B be two convex subsets of W. This note aims to investigate separation and slab horosphere separation of A and B. For example,sufficient conditions on A and B to be separated by a slab of horospheres are obtained. Existence and uniqueness of foot points and farthest points of a convex set A in $W\in \mathcal {W}$ W ∈ W are considered.

Kirchhoff's kinematic hypothesis that leads to an approximate two-dimensional theory of bending of elastic plates consists in assuming that the displacements have the form [1]In general, the Dirichlet and Neumann problems for the equilibrium equations obtained on the basis of (1.1) cannot be solved by the boundary integral equation method both inside and outside a bounded domain because the corresponding matrix of fundamental solutions does not vanish at infinity [2]. However, as we show in this paper, the method is still applicable if the asymptotic behaviour of the solution is suitably restricted.

We establish sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of random solutions of nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm stochastic integral equations of mixed type by using admissibility theory and fixed point theorems. The results obtained in this paper generalize the results of several papers.

In spatial economics, the distribution of wages is described by a solution to the wage equation of Dixit-Stiglitz-Krugman model. The wage equation is a discrete equation that has a double nonlinear singular structure in the sense that the equation contains a discrete nonlinear operator whose kernel itself is expressed by another discrete nonlinear operator with a singularity. In this article, no restrictions are imposed on the maximum of transport costs of the model and on the number of regions where economic activities are conducted. Applying Brouwer fixed point theorem to this discrete double nonlinear singular operator, we prove sufficient conditions for the wage equation to have a solution and a unique one.
