We say that a nonselfadjoint operator algebra is partly free if it contains a free semigroup algebra. Motivation for such algebras occurs in the setting of what we call free semigroupoid algebras. These are the weak operator topology closed algebras generated by the left regular representations of semigroupoids associated with finite or countable directed graphs. We expand our analysis of partl...

In this paper we introduce a new setting, based on partial algebras, for studying constructions of finitely generated free algebras. We give sufficient conditions under which the finitely generated free algebras for a variety V may be described as the colimit of a chain of finite partial algebras obtained by repeated application of a functor. In particular, our method encompasses the constructi...

In this paper, the continuity and strong continuity in domain-free information algebras and labeled information algebras are introduced respectively. A more general concept of continuous function which is defined between two domain-free continuous information algebras is presented. It is shown that, with the operations combination and focusing, the set of all continuous functions between two do...

Free algebras with an arbitrary number of free generators in varieties of BL-algebras generated by one BL-chain that is an ordinal sum of a finite MV-chain Ln and a generalized BL-chain B are described in terms of weak Boolean products of BL-algebras that are ordinal sums of subalgebras of Ln and free algebras in the variety of basic hoops generated by B. The Boolean products are taken over the...

We prove the Freiheitssatz for right-symmetric algebras and the decidability of the word problem for right-symmetric algebras with a single defining relation. We also prove that two generated subalgebras of free right-symmetric algebras are free and automorphisms of two generated free right-symmetric algebras are tame.

In this paper, we establish the Composition-Diamond lemma for free differential algebras. As applications, we give Gröbner-Shirshov bases for free Lie-differential algebras and free commutative-differential algebras, respectively.

In this paper, we establish the Composition-Diamond lemma for λ-differential associative algebras over a field K with multiple operators. As applications, we obtain Gröbner-Shirshov bases of free λ-differential Rota-Baxter algebras. In particular, linear bases of free λ-differential Rota-Baxter algebras are obtained and consequently, the free λ-differential Rota-Baxter algebras are constructed ...
