Let {We}e∈ω be a standard enumeration of the recursively enumerable (r. e.) subsets of ω = {0, 1, 2, …}. The lattice of recursively enumerable sets, is the structure ({We}e∈ω, ∪, ∩). is the sublattice of consisting of the recursive sets.Suppose is a lattice of subsets of ω. ≡ is said to be a congruence relation on if ≡ is an equivalence relation on and if for all U, U′ ∈ and V, V ∈ , if U ≡ U′ and V ≡ V′ then U ∪ U′ ≡ V ∪ V′ and U ∩ U′ ≡ V ∩ V′. [U] = {V ∈ | V ≡ U} is the equivalence class of U. If ≡ is a congruence relation on , the elements of the quotient lattice / ≡ are the equivalence classes of ≡. [U] ∪ [V] is defined as [U ∪ V], and [U] ∩ [V] is defined as [U ∩ V].The quotient lattices of (or of some sublattice ) correspond naturally with the congruence relations which give rise to them, and in turn the congruence relations of sublattices of can be characterized in part by their computational complexity. The aim of the present paper is to characterize congruence relations in some of the most important complexity classes.

Let {We}e∈ω be a standard enumeration of the recursively enumerable (r.e.) subsets of ω = {0,1,2,…}. The lattice of recursively enumerable sets, , is the structure ({We}e∈ω,∪,∩). ≡ is a congruence relation on if ≡ is an equivalence relation on and if for all U, U′ ∈ and V, V′ ∈ , if U ≡ U′ and V ≡ V′, then U ∪ V ≡ U′ ∪ V′ and U ∩ V ≡ U′ ∩ V′. [U] = {V ∈ | V ≡ U} is the equivalence class of U. If ≡ is a congruence relation on , the elements of the quotient lattice / ≡ are the equivalence classes of ≡. [U] ∪ [V] is defined as [U ∪ V], and [U] ∩ [V] is defined as [U ∩ V]. We say that a congruence relation ≡ on is if {(i, j)| Wi ≡ Wj} is . Define =* by putting Wi, =* Wj if and only if (Wi − Wj)∪ (Wj − Wi) is finite. Then =* is a congruence relation. If D is any set, then we can define a congruence relation by putting Wi Wj if and only if Wi ∩ D =* Wj ∩D. By Hammond [2], a congruence relation ≡ ⊇ =* is if and only if ≡ is equal to for some set D.The Friedberg splitting theorem [1] asserts that if A is any recursively enumerable set, then there exist disjoint recursively enumerable sets A0 and A1 such that A = A0∪ A1 and such that for any recursively enumerable set B

Throughout this paper, α will denote an admissible ordinal. Let (α) denote the lattice of α-r.e. sets, i.e., the lattice whose elements are the α-r.e. sets, and whose ordering is given by set inclusion. Call a set A ∈ (α)α*-finite if it is α-finite and has ordertype < α* (the Σ1-projectum of α). The α*-finite sets form an ideal of (α), and factoring (α) by this ideal, we obtain the quotient lattice *(α).We will fix a language ℒ suitable for lattice theory, and discuss decidability in terms of this language. Two approaches have succeeded in making some progress towards determining the decidability of the elementary theory of (α). Each approach was first used by Lachlan for α = ω. The first approach is to relate the decidability of the elementary theory of (α) to that of a suitable quotient lattice of (α) by a congruence relation definable in ℒ. This technique was used by Lachlan [4, §1] to obtain the equidecidability of the elementary theories of (ω) and *(ω), and was generalized by us [6, Corollary 1.2] to yield the equidecidability of the elementary theories of (α) and *(α) for all α. Lachlan [3] then adopted a different approach.

AbstractCatalytic P systems are among the first variants of membrane systems ever considered in this area. This variant of systems also features some prominent computational complexity questions, and in particular the problem of using only one catalyst in the whole system: is one catalyst enough to allow for generating all recursively enumerable sets of multisets? Several additional ingredients have been shown to be sufficient for obtaining computational completeness even with only one catalyst. In this paper, we show that one catalyst is sufficient for obtaining computational completeness if either catalytic rules have weak priority over non-catalytic rules or else instead of the standard maximally parallel derivation mode, we use the derivation mode maxobjects, i.e., we only take those multisets of rules which affect the maximal number of objects in the underlying configuration.

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.

AbstractIn this paper, we introduce the concept of dual skew Heyting almost distributive lattices (dual skew HADLs) and characterise it in terms of dual HADL. We define an equivalence relation θ on a dual skew HADL L and prove that θ is a congruence relation on the equivalence class [x]θ so that each congruence class is a maximal rectangular subalgebra and the quotient [y]θ/θ is a maximal lattice image of [x]θ for any y ∈ [x]θ. Moreover, we show that if the set PI (L) of all the principal ideals of an ADL L with 0 is a dual skew Heyting algebra then L becomes a dual skew HADL. Further we present different conditions on which an ADL with 0 becomes a dual skew HADL.

We consider an equivalence relation for a given free mapping f of the plane. Under the assumption that f is embeddable in a flow {ft : t ∈ R} we describe the structure of equivalence classes of the relation. Finally, we prove that f restricted to each equivalence class is a Sperner homeomorphism.

Let q0, q1,… be a standard enumeration of all partial recursive functions of one variable. For each i, let wi = range qi and for any recursively enumerable (r.e.) set α, let θα = {n | wn = α}. If A is a class of r.e. sets, let θA = the index set of A = {n | wn ∈ A}. It is the purpose of this paper to classify the possible recursive isomorphism types of index sets of finite classes of r.e. sets. The main theorem will also provide an answer to the question left open in [2] concerning the possible double isomorphism types of pairs (θα, θβ) where α ⊂ β.

AbstractWe prove that the logics of Magidor-Malitz and their generalization by Rubin are distinct even for PC classes.Let M ⊨ Qnx1 … xnφ(x1 … xn) mean that there is an uncountable subset A of ∣M∣ such that for every a1 …, an ∈ A, M ⊨ φ[a1, …, an].Theorem 1.1 (Shelah) (♢ℵ1). For every n ∈ ωthe classKn+1 = {‹A, R› ∣ ‹A, R› ⊨ ¬ Qn+1x1 … xn+1R(x1, …, xn+1)} is not an ℵ0-PC-class in the logic ℒn, obtained by closing first order logic underQ1, …, Qn. I.e. for no countable ℒn-theory T, isKn+1the class of reducts of the models of T.Theorem 1.2 (Rubin) (♢ℵ1). Let M ⊨ QE x yφ(x, y) mean that there is A ⊆ ∣M∣ such thatEA, φ = {‹a, b› ∣ a, b ∈ A and M ⊨ φ[a, b]) is an equivalence relation on A with uncountably many equivalence classes, and such that each equivalence class is uncountable. Let KE = {‹A, R› ∣ ‹A, R› ⊨ ¬ QExyR(x, y)}. Then KE is not an ℵ0-PC-class in the logic gotten by closing first order logic under the set of quantifiers {Qn ∣ n ∈ ω) which were defined in Theorem 1.1.

AbstractCatalytic P systems are among the first variants of membrane systems ever considered in this area. This variant of systems also features some prominent computational complexity questions, and in particular the problem of using only one catalyst: is one catalyst enough to allow for generating all recursively enumerable sets of multisets? Several additional ingredients have been shown to be sufficient for obtaining even computational completeness with only one catalyst. Last year we could show that the derivation mode $$max_{objects}$$ m a x objects , where we only take those multisets of rules which affect the maximal number of objects in the underlying configuration one catalyst is sufficient for obtaining computational completeness without any other ingredients. In this paper we follow this way of research and show that one catalyst is also sufficient for obtaining computational completeness when using specific variants of derivation modes based on non-extendable multisets of rules: we only take those non-extendable multisets whose application yields the maximal number of generated objects or else those non-extendable multisets whose application yields the maximal difference in the number of objects between the newly generated configuration and the current configuration. A similar computational completeness result can even be obtained when omitting the condition of non-extendability of the applied multisets when taking the maximal difference of objects or the maximal number of generated objects. Moreover, we reconsider simple P system with energy control—both symbol and rule energy-controlled P systems equipped with these new variants of derivation modes yield computational completeness.

AbstractLet R be a Borel equivalence relation with countable equivalence classes on a measure space M. Intuitively, a ‘treeing’ of R is a measurably-varying way of makin each equivalence class into the vertices of a tree. We make this definition rigorous. We prove that if each equivalence class becomes a tree with polynomial growth, then the equivalence relation is amenable. We prove that if the equivalence relation is finite measure-preserving and amenable, then almost every tree (i.e., equivalence class) must have one or two ends.
