    Type-Decomposition of a Pseudo-Effect Algebra

    Full text link
    The theory of direct decomposition of a centrally orthocomplete effect algebra into direct summands of various types utilizes the notion of a type-determining (TD) set. A pseudo-effect algebra (PEA) is a (possibly) noncommutative version of an effect algebra. In this article we develop the basic theory of centrally orthocomplete PEAs, generalize the notion of a TD set to PEAs, and show that TD sets induce decompositions of centrally orthocomplete PEAs into direct summands.Comment: 18 page

    Spectra of Tukey types of ultrafilters on Boolean algebras

    Full text link
    Extending recent investigations on the structure of Tukey types of ultrafilters on P(ω)\mathcal{P}(\omega) to Boolean algebras in general, we classify the spectra of Tukey types of ultrafilters for several classes of Boolean algebras, including interval algebras, tree algebras, and pseudo-tree algebras.Comment: 18 page

    ODE/IM correspondence and modified affine Toda field equations

    Get PDF
    We study the two-dimensional affine Toda field equations for affine Lie algebra g^\hat{\mathfrak{g}} modified by a conformal transformation and the associated linear equations. In the conformal limit, the associated linear problem reduces to a (pseudo-)differential equation. For classical affine Lie algebra g^\hat{\mathfrak{g}}, we obtain a (pseudo-)differential equation corresponding to the Bethe equations for the Langlands dual of the Lie algebra g\mathfrak{g}, which were found by Dorey et al. in study of the ODE/IM correspondence.Comment: 29 pages; added references and note, fixed typos, minor rewritin

    Cocommutative coalgebras: homotopy theory and Koszul duality

    Full text link
    We extend a construction of Hinich to obtain a closed model category structure on all differential graded cocommutative coalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We further show that the Koszul duality between commutative and Lie algebras extends to a Quillen equivalence between cocommutative coalgebras and formal coproducts of curved Lie algebras.Comment: 38 page
