Semigroups being one of the algebraic structures are sets with associative binary operation defined on them. Semigroup theory is one of such subject to determine and analyze equivalence relations in the sense that it could be easily understood. This paper contains the quotient structures of semigroups by extending equivalence relations as congruences. We define different types of relations on the semigroups and prove they are equivalence, partial order, congruence or weakly separative congruence relations.

Because of a change in the rules of the ICZN (3rd edition, 1985: 73-74), there has risen a disagreement about the concept of the "type series". In cases where a museum type-lot consists of more than one specimen, although the original author(s) did not indicate that more than one shell was used for the description, we will designate the single originally mentioned and/or figured specimen as the "lectotype". Never- theless a number of taxonomists will consider that "lectotype" as the holotype, and disregard the remaining shells in the lot as type material. -

The genus of a nonsingular projective curve The definition I’m going to give you isn’t the one people would typically start with. I prefer to introduce this one here, because it is more easily computable. Definition. The tentative genus of a nonsingular projective curve C is given by 1 − deg ΩC =2g 2. Fact (from Riemann-Roch, later). g is always a nonnegative integer, i.e. deg K = −2, 0, 2,.... Complex picture: Riemann-surface with g “holes”. Examples. Hence P1 has genus 0, smooth plane cubics have genus 1, etc. Exercise: Hyperelliptic curves. Suppose f(x0,x1) is a polynomial of homo- geneous degree n where n is even. Let C0 be the affine plane curve given by 2 y = f(1,x1), with the generically 2-to-1 cover C0 → U0.LetC1be the affine 2 plane curve given by z = f(x0, 1), with the generically 2-to-1 cover C1 → U1. Check that C0 and C1 are nonsingular. Show that you can glue together C0 and C1 (and the double covers) so as to give a double cover C → P1. (For computational convenience, you may assume that neither [0; 1] nor [1; 0] are zeros of f.) What goes wrong if n is odd? Show that the tentative genus of C is n/2 − 1.(Thisisa special case of the Riemann-Hurwitz formula.) This provides examples of curves of any genus. -

Linear induction algebra and a normal form for linear operators Laurent Poinsot Universit´eParis 13, Sorbonne Paris Cit´e, LIPN, CNRS (UMR 7030), France, [email protected], http://lipn.univ-paris13.fr/~poinsot/ Abstract. The set of natural integers is fundamental for at least two reasons: it is the free induction algebra over the empty set (and at such allows definitions of maps by primitive recursion) and it is the free monoid over a one-element set, the latter structure being a consequence of the former. In this contribution, we study the corresponding structure in the linear setting, i.e. in the category of modules over a commutative ring rather than in the category of sets, namely the free module generated by the integers. It also provides free structures of induction algebra and of monoid (in the category of modules). -

Domain Theory and the Logic of Observable Properties
Domain Theory and the Logic of Observable Properties Samson Abramsky Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen Mary College University of London October 31st 1987 Abstract The mathematical framework of Stone duality is used to synthesize a number of hitherto separate developments in Theoretical Computer Science: • Domain Theory, the mathematical theory of computation introduced by Scott as a foundation for denotational semantics. • The theory of concurrency and systems behaviour developed by Milner, Hennessy et al. based on operational semantics. • Logics of programs. Stone duality provides a junction between semantics (spaces of points = denotations of computational processes) and logics (lattices of properties of processes). Moreover, the underlying logic is geometric, which can be com- putationally interpreted as the logic of observable properties—i.e. properties which can be determined to hold of a process on the basis of a finite amount of information about its execution. These ideas lead to the following programme: 1. A metalanguage is introduced, comprising • types = universes of discourse for various computational situa- tions. • terms = programs = syntactic intensions for models or points. 2. A standard denotational interpretation of the metalanguage is given, assigning domains to types and domain elements to terms. 3. The metalanguage is also given a logical interpretation, in which types are interpreted as propositional theories and terms are interpreted via a program logic, which axiomatizes the properties they satisfy. 2 4. The two interpretations are related by showing that they are Stone duals of each other. Hence, semantics and logic are guaranteed to be in harmony with each other, and in fact each determines the other up to isomorphism. -

Chapter 3 Discrete Topological Transformations for Image Processing Michel Couprie and Gilles Bertrand Abstract Topology-based image processing operators usually aim at trans- forming an image while preserving its topological characteristics. This chap- ter reviews some approaches which lead to efficient and exact algorithms for topological transformations in 2D, 3D and grayscale images. Some transfor- mations which modify topology in a controlled manner are also described. Finally, based on the framework of critical kernels, we show how to design a topologically sound parallel thinning algorithm guided by a priority function. 3.1 Introduction Topology-preserving operators, such as homotopic thinning and skeletoniza- tion, are used in many applications of image analysis to transform an object while leaving unchanged its topological characteristics. -
Second-Order Algebraic Theories (Extended Abstract)
Second-Order Algebraic Theories (Extended Abstract) Marcelo Fiore and Ola Mahmoud University of Cambridge, Computer Laboratory Abstract. Fiore and Hur [10] recently introduced a conservative exten- sion of universal algebra and equational logic from first to second order. Second-order universal algebra and second-order equational logic respec- tively provide a model theory and a formal deductive system for lan- guages with variable binding and parameterised metavariables. This work completes the foundations of the subject from the viewpoint of categori- cal algebra. Specifically, the paper introduces the notion of second-order algebraic theory and develops its basic theory. Two categorical equiva- lences are established: at the syntactic level, that of second-order equa- tional presentations and second-order algebraic theories; at the semantic level, that of second-order algebras and second-order functorial models. Our development includes a mathematical definition of syntactic trans- lation between second-order equational presentations. This gives the first formalisation of notions such as encodings and transforms in the context of languages with variable binding. 1 Introduction Algebra started with the study of a few sample algebraic structures: groups, rings, lattices, etc. Based on these, Birkhoff [3] laid out the foundations of a general unifying theory, now known as universal algebra. Birkhoff's formalisation of the notion of algebra starts with the introduction of equational presentations. These constitute the syntactic foundations of the subject. Algebras are then the semantics or model theory, and play a crucial role in establishing the logical foundations. Indeed, Birkhoff introduced equational logic as a sound and complete formal deductive system for reasoning about algebraic structure. -
8.6 Modular Arithmetic
“mcs” — 2015/5/18 — 1:43 — page 263 — #271 8.6 Modular Arithmetic On the first page of his masterpiece on number theory, Disquisitiones Arithmeticae, Gauss introduced the notion of “congruence.” Now, Gauss is another guy who managed to cough up a half-decent idea every now and then, so let’s take a look at this one. Gauss said that a is congruent to b modulo n iff n .a b/. This is j written a b.mod n/: ⌘ For example: 29 15 .mod 7/ because 7 .29 15/: ⌘ j It’s not useful to allow a modulus n 1, and so we will assume from now on that moduli are greater than 1. There is a close connection between congruences and remainders: Lemma 8.6.1 (Remainder). a b.mod n/ iff rem.a; n/ rem.b; n/: ⌘ D Proof. By the Division Theorem 8.1.4, there exist unique pairs of integers q1;r1 and q2;r2 such that: a q1n r1 D C b q2n r2; D C “mcs” — 2015/5/18 — 1:43 — page 264 — #272 264 Chapter 8 Number Theory where r1;r2 Œ0::n/. Subtracting the second equation from the first gives: 2 a b .q1 q2/n .r1 r2/; D C where r1 r2 is in the interval . n; n/. Now a b.mod n/ if and only if n ⌘ divides the left side of this equation. This is true if and only if n divides the right side, which holds if and only if r1 r2 is a multiple of n.
