In this paper we study Hopf algebras with a coalgebra projection A ∼= R#ξH and their deformations by an H-bilinear cocycle. If γ is a cocycle for A, then γ can be restricted to a cocycle γR for R, and A γ ∼= RR#ξγH. As examples, we consider liftings of B(V )#K[Γ] where Γ is a finite abelian group, V is a quantum plane and B(V ) is its Nichols algebra, and explicitly construct the cocycle which ...

By work of Farinati, Solberg, and Taillefer, it is known that the Hopf algebra cohomology a quasi-triangular algebra, as graded Lie under Gerstenhaber bracket, abelian. Motivated by question whether this holds for nonquasi-triangular algebras, we show brackets on can be expressed via an arbitrary projective resolution using Volkov's homotopy liftings generalized to some exact monoidal categorie...

The Stone Representation Theorem for Boolean Algebras, first proved by M. H. Stone in 1936 ([4]), states that every Boolean algebra is isomorphic to a field of sets. This paper motivates and presents a proof.

We introduce Priestley rings of upsets (of a poset) and prove that inequivalent Priestley ring representations of a bounded distributive lattice L are in 1-1 correspondence with dense subspaces of the Priestley space of L. This generalizes a 1955 result of Bauer that inequivalent reduced field representations of a Boolean algebra B are in 1-1 correspondence with dense subspaces of the Stone spa...

In this paper we study the prime ideals space of a BL-algebra, proved that the prime ideals space being a 0 T-space and also a stone space. Furthermore, we study the properties of the prime ideals space.

In this paper, we prove that every Pre A∗-algebra A with 1 is isomorphic to the Pre A∗-algebra of all global sections of a sheaf of indecomposable Pre A∗-algebra over Boolean space and that sheaf of indecomposable Pre A∗-algebra with 1 over Boolean space is isomorphic to the sheaf obtained from the Pre A∗-algebra of all sections of the sheaf.
