Partial frames provide a rich context in which to do pointfree structured and unstructured topology. A small collection of axioms of an elementary nature allows one to do much traditional pointfree topology, both on the level of frames or locales, and that of uniform or metric frames. These axioms are sufficiently general to include as examples bounded distributive...

A new class of alternative dual frames is introduced in the setting of finite frames for Rd. These dual frames, called Sobolev duals, provide a high precision linear reconstruction procedure for Sigma-Delta (Σ∆) quantization of finite frames. The main result is summarized as follows: reconstruction with Sobolev duals enables stable rth order Sigma-Delta schemes to achieve deterministic approxim...

We introduce and study the notion of a completely regular ternary semiring. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a ternary semiring to be completely regular are furnished. AMS Mathematics Subject Classification (2010): 16Y30, 16Y99
