چکیده

Mathematics of Domains A dissertation presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Brandeis University, Waltham, Massachusetts by Michael A. Bukatin Two groups of naturally arising questions in the mathematical theory of domains for denotational semantics are addressed. Domains are equipped with Scott topology and represent data types. Scott continuous functions represent computable functions and form the most popular continuous model of computations. Covariant Logic of Domains: Domains are represented as sets of theories, and Scott continuous functions are represented as input-output inference engines. The questions addressed are: A. What constitutes a subdomain? Do subdomains of a given domain A form a domain? B. Which retractions are finitary? C. What is the essence of generalizations of information systems based on non-reflexive logics? Are these generalizations restricted to continuous domains? Analysis on Domains: D. How to describe Scott topologies via generalized distance functions satisfying the requirement of Scott continuity (“abstract computability”)? The answer is that the axiom ρ(x, x) = 0 is incompatible with Scott continuity of distance functions. The resulting relaxed metrics are studied. E. Is it possible to obtain Scott continuous relaxed metrics via measures of domain subsets representing positive and negative information about domain elements? The positive answer is obtained via the discovery of the novel class of co-continuous valuations on the systems of Scott open sets. Some of these natural questions were studied earlier. However, in each case a novel approach is presented, and the answers are supplied with much more compelling and clear justifications, than were known before.

A note on the problem when FS-domains coincide with RB-domains

In this paper, we introduce the notion of super finitely separating functions which gives a characterization of RB-domains. Then we prove that FS-domains and RB-domains are equivalent in some special cases by the following three claims: a dcpo is an RB-domain if and only if there exists an approximate identity for it consisting of super finitely separating functions; a consistent join-semilatti...

A duality between fuzzy domains and strongly completely distributive $L$-ordered sets

The aim of this paper is to establish a fuzzy version of the dualitybetween domains and completely distributive lattices. All values aretaken in a fixed frame $L$. A definition of (strongly) completelydistributive $L$-ordered sets is introduced. The main result inthis paper is that the category of fuzzy domains is dually equivalentto the category of strongly completely distributive $L$-ordereds...

Quasi-Primary Decomposition in Modules Over Proufer Domains

In this paper we investigate decompositions of submodules in modules over a Proufer domain into intersections of quasi-primary and classical quasi-primary submodules. In particular, existence and uniqueness of quasi-primary decompositions in modules over a Proufer domain of finite character are proved. Proufer domain; primary submodule; quasi-primary submodule; classical quasi-primary; decompo...

On radical formula and Prufer domains

In this paper we characterize the radical of an arbitrary‎ ‎submodule $N$ of a finitely generated free module $F$ over a‎ ‎commutatitve ring $R$ with identity‎. ‎Also we study submodules of‎ ‎$F$ which satisfy the radical formula‎. ‎Finally we derive‎ ‎necessary and sufficient conditions for $R$ to be a‎ ‎Pr$ddot{mbox{u}}$fer domain‎, ‎in terms of the radical of a‎ ‎cyclic submodule in $Rbigopl...

Solving high-order partial differential equations in unbounded domains by means of double exponential second kind Chebyshev approximation

In this paper, a collocation method for solving high-order linear partial differential equations (PDEs) with variable coefficients under more general form of conditions is presented. This method is based on the approximation of the truncated double exponential second kind Chebyshev (ESC) series. The definition of the partial derivative is presented and derived as new operational matrices of der...
