Let [Formula: see text] denote the incidence algebra of a locally finite poset [Formula: see text] over a field [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] some equivalence relation on the set of generators of [Formula: see text]. Then [Formula: see text] is the subset of [Formula: see text] of all the elements that are constant on the equivalence classes of [Formula: see text]. If [Formula: see text] satisfies certain conditions, then [Formula: see text] is a subalgebra of [Formula: see text] called a reduced incidence algebra. We extend this notion to finitary incidence algebras [Formula: see text] for any poset [Formula: see text]. We investigate reduced finitary incidence algebras [Formula: see text] and determine their automorphisms in some special cases.

The incidence algebraI(X,ℝ)of a locally finite poset(X,≤)has been defined and studied by Spiegel and O'Donnell (1997). A poset(V,≤)has a directed graph(Gv,≤)representing it. Conversely, any directed graphGwithout any cycle, multiple edges, and loops is represented by a partially ordered setVG. So in this paper, we define an incidence algebraI(G,ℤ)for(G,≤)overℤ, the ring of integers, byI(G,ℤ)={fi,fi*:V×V→ℤ}wherefi(u,v)denotes the number of directed paths of lengthifromutovandfi*(u,v)=−fi(u,v). WhenGis finite of ordern,I(G,ℤ)is isomorphic to a subring ofMn(ℤ). Principal idealsIvof(V,≤)induce the subdigraphs〈Iv〉which are the principal idealsℐvof(Gv,≤). They generate the idealsI(ℐv,ℤ)ofI(G,ℤ). These results are extended to the incidence algebra of the digraph representing a locally finite weak poset both bounded and unbounded.

AbstractIt is determined when there exists a minimal essential ideal, or minimal essential left ideal, in the incidence algebra of a locally finite partially ordered set defined over a commutative ring. When such an ideal exists, it is described.

For a given ring $\Re$ and a locally finite pre-ordered set $(X, \leq)$, consider $I(X, \Re)$ to be the incidence algebra of $X$ over $\Re$. Motivated by a Xiao’s result which states that every Jordan derivation of $I(X, \Re)$ is a derivation in the case $\Re$ is 2-torsion free, one proves that each generalized Jordan derivation of $I(X, \Re)$ is a generalized derivation provided $\Re$ is 2-torsion free, getting as a consequence the above mentioned result.

We present a geometric approach to the study of singular switched linear systems, defining a Lie group action on the differentiable manifold consisting of the matrices defining their subsystems with orbits coinciding with equivalence classes under an equivalence relation which preserves reachability and derive miniversal (orthogonal) deformations of the system. We relate this with some new results on reachability of such systems.

The existence of apparently coincidental equalities (also called Wilf-equivalences) between the enumeration sequences or generating functions of various hereditary classes of combinatorial structures has attracted significant interest. We investigate such coincidences among non-crossing matchings and a variety of other Catalan structures including Dyck paths, 231-avoiding permutations and plane forests. In particular we consider principal subclasses defined by not containing an occurrence of a single given structure. An easily computed equivalence relation among structures is described such that if two structures are equivalent then the associated principal subclasses have the same enumeration sequence. We give an asymptotic estimate of the number of equivalence classes of this relation among structures of size $n$ and show that it is exponentially smaller than the $n^{th}$ Catalan number. In other words these "coincidental" equalities are in fact very common among principal subclasses. Our results also allow us to prove in a unified and bijective manner several known Wilf-equivalences from the literature.

A natural approach to topology which emphasizes its geometric essence independent of the notion of points is given by the concept of frame (for instance [4], [8]). We consider this a good formalization of the intuitive perception of a space as given by the “places” of non-trivial extent with appropriate geometric relations between them. Viewed from this position, points are artefacts determined by collections of places which may in some sense by considered as collapsing or contracting; the precise meaning of the latter as well as possible notions of equivalence being largely arbitrary, one may indeed have different notions of point on the same “space”. Of course, the well-known notion of a point as a homomorphism into 2 evidently fits into this pattern by the familiar correspondence between these and the completely prime filters. For frames equipped with a diameter as considered in this paper, we introduce a natural alternative, the Cauchy points. These are the obvious counterparts, for metric locales, of equivalence classes of Cauchy sequences familiar from the classical description of completion of metric spaces: indeed they are decreasing sequences for which the diameters tend to zero, identified by a natural equivalence relation.

In the papers [11] and [18] Rohlin and Thom have introduced an equivalence relation into the set of compact orientable (not necessarily connected) differentiable manifolds, which, roughly speaking, is described in the following manner: two differentiable manifolds are equivalent (cobordantes), when they together form the boundary of a bounded differentiable manifold. The equivalence classes can be added and multiplied in a natural way and form a graded algebra Ω relative to the addition, the multiplication and the dimension of manifolds. The precise structures of the groups of cobordism Ωk of dimension k are not known thoroughly. Thom [18] has determined the free part of Ω and also calculated explicitly Ωk for 0 ≦ k ≦ 7.

An ideal on a setXis a nonempty collection of subsets ofXclosed under the operations of subset and finite union. Given a topological spaceXand an idealℐof subsets ofX,Xis defined to beℐ-paracompact if every open cover of the space admits a locally finite open refinement which is a cover for all ofXexcept for a set inℐ. Basic results are investigated, particularly with regard to theℐ- paracompactness of two associated topologies generated by sets of the formU−IwhereUis open andI∈ℐand⋃{U|Uis open andU−A∈ℐ, for some open setA}. Preservation ofℐ-paracompactness by functions, subsets, and products is investigated. Important special cases ofℐ-paracompact spaces are the usual paracompact spaces and the almost paracompact spaces of Singal and Arya [“On m-paracompact spaces”, Math. Ann., 181 (1969), 119-133].

We introduce the concepts of a bipolar fuzzy reflexive, symmetric, and transitive relation. We study bipolar fuzzy analogues of many results concerning relationships between ordinary reflexive, symmetric, and transitive relations. Next, we define the concepts of a bipolar fuzzy equivalence class and a bipolar fuzzy partition, and we prove that the set of all bipolar fuzzy equivalence classes is a bipolar fuzzy partition and that the bipolar fuzzy equivalence relation is induced by a bipolar fuzzy partition. Finally, we define an ( a , b ) -level set of a bipolar fuzzy relation and investigate some relationships between bipolar fuzzy relations and their ( a , b ) -level sets.
