Let M be a free finitely generated Z-module with basis B and ∆M the kernel of the homomorphism M → Z which maps B to 1. A basis of ∆M can be easily constructed from the basis B of M . Let further R be a submodule of M such that N = M/R is free. The subject of investigation is the module ∆N = (∆M + R)/R. We compute the index [N : ∆N ] and construct bases of ∆N with the help of a basis of N . Fin...

Let X be a compact metric space which is locally absolutely retract and let ϕ: C(X) → C(Y,M(n)) be a unital homomorphism, where Y is a compact metric space with dim Y ≤ 2. It is proved that there exists a sequence of n continuous maps α(i,m): Y → X (i = 1,2,…,n) and a sequence of sets of mutually orthogonal rank-one projections {p(1,m),p(2,m),…,p(n,m)} C(Y,M(n)) such that [see formula]. This is...

A homomorphism of the de Bruijn graph that maps a graph of order n onto one of order n -1 and its applications to the design of nonsingular feedback shift registers are discussed. The properties preserved under this mapping suggest a new design technique whose main advantage is due to the fact that the problem of designing a desired n-stage shift register may be reduced to a problem of order n ...

We show that for every binary matroid $N$ there is a graph $H_*$ such the graphic $M_G$ of $G$, matroid-homomorphism from to if and only graph-homomorphism $G$ $H_*$. With this we prove complexity dichotomy problem $\rm{Hom}_\mathbb{M}(N)$ deciding $M$ admits homomorphism $N$. The polynomial time solvable has loop or no circuits odd length, otherwise $\rm{NP}$-complete. also get dichotomies lis...

let $r$ be a ring and $m$ a right $r$-module with $s=end_r(m)$. a module $m$ is called semi-projective if for any epimorphism $f:mrightarrow n$, where $n$ is a submodule of $m$, and for any homomorphism $g: mrightarrow n$, there exists $h:mrightarrow m$ such that $fh=g$. in this paper, we study sgq-projective and$pi$-semi-projective modules as two generalizations of semi-projective modules. a m...

In the early 1980's, Johnson defined a homomorphism $\mathcal{I}_{g}^1\to\bigwedge^3 H_1(S_{g},\mathbb{Z})$, where $\mathcal{I}_{g}^1$ is Torelli group of closed, connected and oriented surface genus $g$ with boundary component $S_g$ corresponding without component. This known as homomorphism. We study map induced by on rational homology groups apply it to abelian cycles determined disjoint bou...

Graph homomorphisms are used to study good characterizations for coloring problems (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 384 (1996), 1281–1297; Discrete Math. 22 (1978), 287–300). Particularly, the following concept arises in this context: A pair of graphs (A, B) is called a homomorphism duality if for any graph G either there exists a homomorphism σ : A→ G or there exists a homomorphism τ : G → B but not b...

We extend the notion of ‘homomorphism-homogeneity’ to a wider class of kinds of maps than previously studied, and we investigate the relations between the resulting notions of homomorphism-homogeneity, giving several examples. We also give further details on related work reported in [Deborah Lockett and John K. Truss, Generic endomorphisms of homogeneous Structures,in ‘Groups and model theory’,...

In this note we discuss how the first author came upon the Kervaire invariant question while analyzing the image of the J-homomorphism in the EHP sequence. One of the central projects of algebraic topology is to calculate the homotopy classes of maps between two finite CW complexes. Even in the case of spheres – the smallest non-trivial CW complexes – this project has a long and rich history. L...
