Extending recent investigations on the structure of Tukey types of ultrafilters on P(ω) to Boolean algebras in general, we classify the spectra of Tukey types of ultrafilters for several classes of Boolean algebras. These include the classes of free Boolean algebras, superatomic Boolean algebras generated by almost disjoint families, interval algebras, tree algebras, and pseudo-tree algebras. W...

We consider absolutely free nonassociative algebras and, more generally, absolutely free algebras with (maybe infinitely) many multilinear operations. Such algebras are described in terms of labeled reduced planar rooted trees. This allows to apply combinatorial techniques to study their Hilbert series and the asymptotics of their coefficients. These algebras satisfy the Nielsen-Schreier proper...

Rota-Baxter algebras appeared in both the physics and mathematics literature. It is of great interest to have a simple construction of the free object of this algebraic structure. For example, free commutative Rota-Baxter algebras relate to double shuffle relations for multiple zeta values. The interest in the non-commutative setting arose in connection with the work of Connes and Kreimer on th...
