Representing free Boolean algebras

چکیده
Partitioner algebras are defined in [2] and are natural tools for studying the properties of maximal almost disjoint families of subsets of ω. In this paper we investigate which free algebras can be represented as partitioner algebras or as subalgebras of partitioner algebras. In so doing we answer a question raised in [2] by showing that the free algebra with א1 generators is represented. It was shown in [2] that it is consistent that the free Boolean algebra of size continuum is not a subalgebra of any partitioner algebra.

Spectra of Tukey Types of Ultrafilters on Boolean Algebras
Extending recent investigations on the structure of Tukey types of ultrafilters on P(ω) to Boolean algebras in general, we classify the spectra of Tukey types of ultrafilters for several classes of Boolean algebras. These include the classes of free Boolean algebras, superatomic Boolean algebras generated by almost disjoint families, interval algebras, tree algebras, and pseudo-tree algebras. W...
متن کاملThe number of openly generated Boolean algebras
This article is devoted to two different generalizations of projective Boolean algebras: openly generated Boolean algebras and tightly σ-filtered Boolean algebras. We show that for every uncountable regular cardinal κ there are 2 pairwise non-isomorphic openly generated Boolean algebras of size κ > א1 provided there is an almost free non-free abelian group of size κ. The openly generated Boolea...
متن کاملFilter theory in MTL-algebras based on Uni-soft property
The notion of (Boolean) uni-soft filters in MTL-algebras is introduced, and several properties of them are investigated. Characterizations of (Boolean) uni-soft filters are discussed, and some (necessary and sufficient) conditions for a uni-soft filter to be Boolean are provided. The condensational property for a Boolean uni-soft filter is established.
متن کاملFREE ALGEBRAS IN VARIETIES OF BL-ALGEBRAS GENERATED BY A BLn-CHAIN
Free algebras with an arbitrary number of free generators in varieties of BL-algebras generated by one BL-chain that is an ordinal sum of a finite MV-chain Ln and a generalized BL-chain B are described in terms of weak Boolean products of BL-algebras that are ordinal sums of subalgebras of Ln and free algebras in the variety of basic hoops generated by B. The Boolean products are taken over the...
متن کاملExtensions of Free Boolean Algebras
In a series of papers [2, 3, 4, 5], B. Efimov has given sufficient conditions for a Boolean algebra to have a free subalgebra of given cardinality. For example, he has shown that if an infinite Boolean algebra A has cardinality greater than exp exp exp v, but the supremum of the cardinalities of subsets of disjoint elements in A is not greater than v, then A has a free subalgebra with (exp v) i...
