Lattice Of Subalgebras

It is well known (1, p. 162) that the lattice of subalgebras of a finite Boolean algebra is dually isomorphic to a finite partition lattice. In this paper we study the lattice of subalgebras of an arbitrary Boolean algebra. One of our main results is that the lattice of subalgebras characterizes the Boolean algebra. In order to prove this result we introduce some notions which enable us to give a characterization and representation of the lattices of subalgebras of a Boolean algebra in terms of a closure operator on the lattice of partitions of the Boolean space associated with the Boolean algebra. Our theory then has some analogy to that of the lattice theory of topological vector spaces. Of some interest is the problem of classification of Boolean algebras in terms of the properties of their lattice of subalgebras, and we obtain some results in this direction.

AbstractThis article concerns the uniform classification of infinite dimensional real topological vector spaces. We examine a recently isolated linearization procedure for uniform homeomorphisms of the form φ: X →Y, where X is a Banach space with non-trivial type and Y is any topological vector space. For such a uniform homeomorphism φ, we show that Y must be normable and have the same supremal type as X. That Y is normable generalizes theorems of Bessaga and Enflo. This aspect of the theory determines new examples of uniform non-equivalence. That supremal type is a uniform invariant for Banach spaces is essentially due to Ribe. Our linearization approach gives an interesting new proof of Ribe's result.

Special Case

We study the locally convex cones which have finite dimension. We introduce the Euclidean convex quasiuniform structure on a finite dimensional cone. In special case of finite dimensional locally convex topological vector spaces, the symmetric topology induced by the Euclidean convex quasiuniform structure reduces to the known concept of Euclidean topology. We prove that the dual of a finite dimensional cone endowed with the Euclidean convex quasiuniform structure is identical with it?s algebraic dual.

Weighted grids are linearly independent sets {gw : w ∈ W} of signed tripotents in Jordan* triples indexed by figures W in real vector spaces such that {gugvgw} ∈ ℂgu-v+w (= 0 if u - v + w ∉ W). They arise naturally as systems of weight vectors of certain abelian families of Jordan* derivations. Based on Neher's grid theory, a classification of association free non-nil weighted grids is given. As a first step beyond the setting of classical grids, the complete list of complex weighted grids of pairwise associated signed tripotents indexed by ℤ2 is established.

In this note we define and discuss some properties of partition of unity on *-inductive limits of topological vector spaces. We prove that if a partition of unity exists on a *-inductive limit space of a collection of topological vector spaces, then it is isomorphic and homeomorphic to a subspace of a *-direct sum of topological vector spaces.

Principal Bundles

AbstractFor a 2-category 2C we associate a notion of a principal 2C-bundle. For the 2-category of 2-vector spaces, in the sense of M.M. Kapranov and V.A. Voevodsky, this gives the 2-vector bundles of N.A. Baas, B.I. Dundas and J. Rognes. Our main result says that the geometric nerve of a good 2-category is a classifying space for the associated principal 2-bundles. In the process of proving this we develop powerful machinery which may be useful in further studies of 2-categorical topology. As a corollary we get a new proof of the classification of principal bundles. Another 2-category of 2-vector spaces has been proposed by J.C. Baez and A.S. Crans. A calculation using our main theorem shows that in this case the theory of principal 2-bundles splits, up to concordance, as two copies of ordinary vector bundle theory. When 2C is a cobordism type 2-category we get a new notion of cobordism-bundles which turns out to be classified by the Madsen–Weiss spaces.
