Reflections of universal algebras into semilattices, their Galois theories, and related factorization systems

Estabelecemos uma condição suficiente para a preservação dos produtos finitos, pelo reflector de uma variedade de álgebras universais numa subvariedade, que é, também, condição necessária se a subvariedade for idempotente. Esta condição é estabelecida, seguidamente, num contexto mais geral e caracteriza reflexões para as quais a propriedade de ser semi-exacta à esquerda e a propriedade, mais forte, de ter unidades estáveis, coincidem. Prova-se que reflexões simples e semi-exactas à esquerda coincidem, no contexto das variedades de álgebras universais e caracterizam-se as classes do sistema de factorização derivado da reflexão. Estabelecem-se resultados que ajudam a caracterizar morfismos de cobertura e verticais-estáveis em álgebras universais e no contexto mais geral já referido. Caracterizam-se as classes de morfismos separáveis, puramente inseparáveis e normais. O estudo dos morfismos de descida de Galois conduz a condições suficientes para que o seu par kernel seja preservado pelo reflector.

Monogenic polynomials of four variables with binomial expansion

In the recent past one of the main concern of research in the field of Hypercomplex Function Theory in Clifford Algebras was the development of a variety of new tools for a deeper understanding about its true elementary roots in the Function Theory of one Complex Variable. Therefore the study of the space of monogenic (Clifford holomorphic) functions by its stratification via homogeneous monogenic polynomials is a useful tool. In this paper we consider the structure of those polynomials of four real variables with binomial expansion. This allows a complete characterization of sequences of 4D generalized monogenic Appell polynomials by three different types of polynomials. A particularly important case is that of monogenic polynomials which are simply isomorphic to the integer powers of one complex variable and therefore also called pseudo-complex powers.

A scale variational principle of Herglotz

The Herglotz problem is a generalization of the fundamental problem of the calculus of variations. In this paper, we consider a class of non-differentiable functions, where the dynamics is described by a scale derivative. Necessary conditions are derived to determine the optimal solution for the problem. Some other problems are considered, like transversality conditions, the multi-dimensional case, higher-order derivatives and for several independent variables.
