Automorphic equivalence of one-sorted algebras

Abstract

One of the central questions of universal algebraic geometry is: when two algebras have the same algebraic geometry? There are various interpretations of the sentence "Two algebras have the same algebraic geometry". One of these is automorphic equivalence of algebras, which is discussed in this paper, and the other interpretation is geometric equivalence of algebras. In this paper we consider very wide and natural class of algebras: one sorted algebras from IBN variety. The variety is called an IBM variety if two free algebras W(X), W(Y) of this variety are isomorphic if and only if the powers of sets X and Y coincide. In the researching of the automorphic equivalence of algebras we must study the group of automorphisms of the category of the all finitely generated free algebras of our variety and the group of its automorphisms. By [PZ, Theorem 2], if we deal with an IBN variety of one-sorted algebras, then every strongly stable (see Definition 3.1) automorphism of our category defines the other algebraic structure on every algebra H of our variety, such that this algebra with the new algebraic structure automorphically equivalent to the algebra H (Theorem 4.1), i.e., has the same algebraic geometry. From this we conclude the necessary and sufficient conditions for two algebras to be automorphically equivalent. We formulate these conditions by using the notion of geometric equivalence of algebras. It means that we reduce automorphic equivalence of algebras to the simpler notion of geometric equivalence. This paper is a continuation of the research which was started in [PZ].

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
