We construct an universal enveloping algebra associated to the ternary extension of Lie (super)algebras called Lie algebra of order three. A Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem is proven is this context. It this then shown that this universal enveloping algebra can be endowed with a structure of Hopf algebra. The study of the dual of the universal enveloping algebra enables to define the parameters ...

Given a directed graph, there exists a universal operator algebra and universal C∗-algebra associated to the directed graph. For finite graphs this algebra decomposes as the universal free product of some building block operator algebras. For countable directed graphs, the universal operator algebras arise as direct limits of operator algebras of finite subgraphs. Finally, a method for computin...

lthough fuzzy set theory and  sheaf theory have been developed and studied independently,  Ulrich Hohle shows that a large part of fuzzy set  theory  is in fact a subfield of sheaf theory. Many authors have studied mathematical structures, in particular, algebraic structures, in both  categories of these generalized (multi)sets. Using Hohle's idea, we show that for a (universal) algebra $A$, th...

We investigate the foundations of a theory of algebraic data types with variable binding inside classical universal algebra. In the first part, a category-theoretic study of monads over the nominal sets of Gabbay and Pitts leads us to introduce new notions of finitary based monads and uniform monads. In a second part we spell out these notions in the language of universal algebra, show how to r...

This paper presents new generators for the center of the universal enveloping algebra of the symplectic Lie algebra. These generators are expressed in terms of the column-permanent, and it is easy to calculate their eigenvalues on irreducible representations. We can regard these generators as the counterpart of central elements of the universal enveloping algebra of the orthogonal Lie algebra g...
