Book Synopsis Partially Ordered Abelian Groups with Interpolation by : K. R. Goodearl
Download or read book Partially Ordered Abelian Groups with Interpolation written by K. R. Goodearl and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2010-05-30 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A branch of ordered algebraic structures has grown, motivated by $K$-theoretic applications and mainly concerned with partially ordered abelian groups satisfying the Riesz interpolation property. This monograph is the first source in which the algebraic and analytic aspects of these interpolation groups have been integrated into a coherent framework for general reference. The author provides a solid foundation in the structure theory of interpolation groups and dimension groups (directed unperforated interpolation groups), with applications to ordered $K$-theory particularly in mind. Although interpolation groups are defined as purely algebraic structures, their development has been strongly influenced by functional analysis. This cross-cultural development has left interpolation groups somewhat estranged from both the algebraists, who may feel intimidated by compact convex sets, and the functional analysts, who may feel handicapped by the lack of scalars. This book, requiring only standard first-year graduate courses in algebra and functional analysis, aims to make the subject accessible to readers from both disciplines.High points of the development include the following: characterization of dimension groups as direct limits of finite products of copies of the integers; the double-dual representation of an interpolation group with order-unit via affine continuous real-valued functions on its state space; the structure of dimension groups complete with respect to the order-unit norm, as well as monotone sigma-complete dimension groups and dimension groups with countably infinite interpolation; and an introduction to the problem of classifying extensions of one dimension group by another. The book also includes a development of portions of the theory of compact convex sets and Choquet simplices, and an expository discussion of various applications of interpolation group theory to rings and $C DEGREES*$-algebras via ordered $K_0$. A discussion of some open problems in interpolation groups and dimension groups concludes the book.Of interest, of course, to researchers in ordered algebraic structures, the book will also be a valuable source for researchers seeking a background in interpolation groups and dimension groups for applications to such subjects as rings, operator algebras, topological Markov chains, positive polynomials, compact group actions, or other areas where ordered Grothendieck groups might be useful. This is a reprint of the 1986 original. (SUR

Book Synopsis Affine Representations of Grothendieck Groups and Applications to Rickart $C^\ast $-Algebras and $\aleph _0$-Continuous Regular Rings by : K. R. Goodearl
Download or read book Affine Representations of Grothendieck Groups and Applications to Rickart $C^\ast $-Algebras and $\aleph _0$-Continuous Regular Rings written by K. R. Goodearl and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1980 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is concerned with the structure of three interrelated classes of objects: partially ordered abelian groups with countable interpolation, [Hebrew]Aleph0-continuous regular rings, and finite Rickart C*-algebras. The connection from these rings and algebras to these groups is the Grothendieck group K0, which, for all [Hebrew]Aleph0-continuous regular rings and most finite Rickart C*-algebras, is a partially ordered abelian group with countable interpolation. Such partially ordered groups are shown to possess quite specific representations in spaces of affine continuous functions on Choquet simplices. The theme of this paper is to develop the structure theory of these groups and these representations, and to translate the results, via K0, into properties of [Hebrew]Aleph0-continuous regular rings and finite Rickart C*-algebras.
Book Synopsis Refinement Monoids, Equidecomposability Types, and Boolean Inverse Semigroups by : Friedrich Wehrung
Download or read book Refinement Monoids, Equidecomposability Types, and Boolean Inverse Semigroups written by Friedrich Wehrung and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-09 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adopting a new universal algebraic approach, this book explores and consolidates the link between Tarski's classical theory of equidecomposability types monoids, abstract measure theory (in the spirit of Hans Dobbertin's work on monoid-valued measures on Boolean algebras) and the nonstable K-theory of rings. This is done via the study of a monoid invariant, defined on Boolean inverse semigroups, called the type monoid. The new techniques contrast with the currently available topological approaches. Many positive results, but also many counterexamples, are provided.

Book Synopsis Current Research in Operational Quantum Logic by : Bob Coecke
Download or read book Current Research in Operational Quantum Logic written by Bob Coecke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume has its origins in a pair of informal workshops held at the Free University of Brussels, in June of 1998 and May of 1999, named "Current Research 1 in Operational Quantum Logic". These brought together mathematicians and physicists working in operational quantum logic and related areas, as well as a number of interested philosophers of science, for a rare opportunity to discuss recent developments in this field. After some discussion, it was decided that, rather than producing a volume of conference proceedings, we would try to organize the conferees to produce a set of comprehensive survey papers, which would not only report on recent developments in quantum logic, but also provide a tutorial overview of the subject suitable for an interested non-specialist audience. The resulting volume provides an overview of the concepts and methods used in current research in quantum logic, viewed both as a branch of mathemati cal physics and as an area of pure mathematics. The first half of the book is concerned with the algebraic side of the subject, and in particular the theory of orthomodular lattices and posets, effect algebras, etc. In the second half of the book, special attention is given to categorical methods and to connections with theoretical computer science. At the 1999 workshop, we were fortunate to hear three excellent lectures by David J. Foulis, represented here by two contributions. Dave's work, spanning 40 years, has helped to define, and continues to reshape, the field of quantum logic.

Book Synopsis Classification of Ring and $C^\ast $-Algebra Direct Limits of Finite-Dimensional Semisimple Real Algebras by : K. R. Goodearl
Download or read book Classification of Ring and $C^\ast $-Algebra Direct Limits of Finite-Dimensional Semisimple Real Algebras written by K. R. Goodearl and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1987 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motivated by (i) Elliott's classification of direct limits of countable sequences of finite-dimensional semisimple complex algebras and complex AF C*-algebras, (ii) classical results classifying involutions on finite-dimensional semisimple complex algebras, and (iii) the classification by Handelman and Rossmann of automorphisms of period two on the algebras appearing in (i) we study the real algebras described above and completely classify them, up to isomorphism, Morita equivalence, or stable isomorphism. We also show how our classification easily distinguishes various types of algebras within the given classes, and we partially solve the problem of determining exactly which values are attained by the invariants used in classifying these algebras.
Book Synopsis New Trends in Quantum Structures by : Anatolij Dvurecenskij
Download or read book New Trends in Quantum Structures written by Anatolij Dvurecenskij and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: D. Hilbert, in his famous program, formulated many open mathematical problems which were stimulating for the development of mathematics and a fruitful source of very deep and fundamental ideas. During the whole 20th century, mathematicians and specialists in other fields have been solving problems which can be traced back to Hilbert's program, and today there are many basic results stimulated by this program. It is sure that even at the beginning of the third millennium, mathematicians will still have much to do. One of his most interesting ideas, lying between mathematics and physics, is his sixth problem: To find a few physical axioms which, similar to the axioms of geometry, can describe a theory for a class of physical events that is as large as possible. We try to present some ideas inspired by Hilbert's sixth problem and give some partial results which may contribute to its solution. In the Thirties the situation in both physics and mathematics was very interesting. A.N. Kolmogorov published his fundamental work Grundbegriffe der Wahrschein lichkeitsrechnung in which he, for the first time, axiomatized modern probability theory. From the mathematical point of view, in Kolmogorov's model, the set L of ex perimentally verifiable events forms a Boolean a-algebra and, by the Loomis-Sikorski theorem, roughly speaking can be represented by a a-algebra S of subsets of some non-void set n.

Download or read book Handbook of Quantum Logic and Quantum Structures written by Kurt Engesser and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-08-11 with total page 821 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception in the famous 1936 paper by Birkhoff and von Neumann entitled "The logic of quantum mechanics quantum logic, i.e. the logical investigation of quantum mechanics, has undergone an enormous development. Various schools of thought and approaches have emerged and there are a variety of technical results.Quantum logic is a heterogeneous field of research ranging from investigations which may be termed logical in the traditional sense to studies focusing on structures which are on the border between algebra and logic. For the latter structures the term quantum structures is appropriate. The chapters of this Handbook, which are authored by the most eminent scholars in the field, constitute a comprehensive presentation of the main schools, approaches and results in the field of quantum logic and quantum structures. Much of the material presented is of recent origin representing the frontier of the subject. The present volume focuses on quantum structures. Among the structures studied extensively in this volume are, just to name a few, Hilbert lattices, D-posets, effect algebras MV algebras, partially ordered Abelian groups and those structures underlying quantum probability.- Written by eminent scholars in the field of logic- A comprehensive presentation of the theory, approaches and results in the field of quantum logic- Volume focuses on quantum structures

Book Synopsis Tensor Products and Regularity Properties of Cuntz Semigroups by : Ramon Antoine
Download or read book Tensor Products and Regularity Properties of Cuntz Semigroups written by Ramon Antoine and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cuntz semigroup of a -algebra is an important invariant in the structure and classification theory of -algebras. It captures more information than -theory but is often more delicate to handle. The authors systematically study the lattice and category theoretic aspects of Cuntz semigroups. Given a -algebra , its (concrete) Cuntz semigroup is an object in the category of (abstract) Cuntz semigroups, as introduced by Coward, Elliott and Ivanescu. To clarify the distinction between concrete and abstract Cuntz semigroups, the authors call the latter -semigroups. The authors establish the existence of tensor products in the category and study the basic properties of this construction. They show that is a symmetric, monoidal category and relate with for certain classes of -algebras. As a main tool for their approach the authors introduce the category of pre-completed Cuntz semigroups. They show that is a full, reflective subcategory of . One can then easily deduce properties of from respective properties of , for example the existence of tensor products and inductive limits. The advantage is that constructions in are much easier since the objects are purely algebraic.
