Tarski monoids: Matui's spatial realization theorem
Description | Boolean algebras were introduced to model aspects of the way we reason. They have been applied in practical settings such as the design of computers and in theoretical settings such as the foundations of measure theory. Boolean inverse semigroups generalize Boolean algebras to a non-commutative framework: the `and' is replaced by the (non-commutative) multiplication and the `or' by a partial join operation. We have shown that these semigroups are tightly involved in the construction of interesting classes of infinite groups. |
Exploitation Route | This work is clearly important for anyone interested in the theory of C*-algebras. |
