In [1] Bergman and Berman define the notion of categorically equivalent algebras. In [6] we introduce minimal relational sets and point out the relationship between categorical equivalence of algebras and minimal relational sets corresponding to the algebras. In this paper we shall describe the minimal relational sets assigned to finite groups, see Theorem 3.1. Moreover, by using this descripti...

The realization of a paradigm chaotic system, namely the harmonically driven oscillator, in the quantum domain using cold trapped ions driven by lasers is theoretically investigated. The simplest characteristics of regular and chaotic dynamics are calculated. The possibilities of experimental realization are discussed.

The original version of this paper appeared in Linear Algebra and its Applications, volume 430, pp.34 40, 2009. Here we correct a slight gap in the statement and proof of Lemma 3.1 in that paper. We revisit the theorem of Barker, Berman and Plemmons on the existence of a diagonal quadratic Lyapunov function for a stable linear time-invariant (LTI) dynamical system [1]. We use recently derived r...

We show that any n-dimensional Ding semistable Fano manifold X satisfies that the anti-canonical volume is less than or equal to the value (n + 1). Moreover, the equality holds if and only if X is isomorphic to the n-dimensional projective space. Together with a result of Berman, we get the optimal upper bound for the anti-canonical volumes of n-dimensional Kähler-Einstein Fano manifolds.

We prove the following result: if a $$\,\,\,\,\,{\mathbb {Q}}\,\,\,\,\,$$ -Fano variety is uniformly K-stable, then it admits Kähler–Einstein metric. This proves uniform version of Yau–Tian–Donaldson conjecture for all (singular) Fano varieties with discrete automorphism groups. achieve this by modifying Berman–Boucksom–Jonsson’s strategy in smooth case appropriate perturbative arguments. pertu...

In this paper we show that an algebra Ω(m,n) is functionally free for the Berman class Km,n of Ockham algebras, that is, for any two polynomials f and g, they are identically equal in Km,n if and only if f = g holds in Ω(m,n). This result can be applied to the well-known algebras, e.g., Boolean, de Morgan, Kleene, Stone, Bunge algebras, and so on.

The problem of estimating certain functionals defined on a group of linear operators generating a group induced cone (GIC) ordering is studied. A result of Berman and Plemmons [Math. Inequal. Appl., 2(1):149–152, 1998] is extended from the sum function to Schur-convex functions. It is shown that the problem has a closed connection with both Schur type inequality and weak group majorization. Som...
