Hello Arun, do you mean that abstraction is like simplification? Jens...
... Hi Jens, It wasn't clear from your original message what you were asking. However if you were looking for a formal definition of "abstract," one candidate...

By abstraction we mean to reduce the constraints of the system under consideration. Arun...
... Here I have to disagree, because abstraction does not omit something [like (Z,+,-,0) -> (Z,+,0)], but replaces instances (of whatever) by generalizations,...

... If a product of chains has a meet-irreducible least element, then it must be a single chain. Hence every subgroup of Q has a distributive subgroup lattice...

Apologies if this is a big yawn to you all but I would like to know if ther is a quick way to determine if r = 6*m*n + m + n where r, m, n are whole numbers....
It's symmetrical and can be seen as a bilinear function f(m,n)=6*m*n+m+n with a relation r=f(m,n) where for n,m>0 f(n+1,m)=f(m,n)+7 f(n,m)=f(m,n) ... Thanks,...

Apologies if this is triviality but I should like to knoww the proof of such result (Wikipedia): A join-semilattice is distributive if and only if the lattice...
Once again: You have a relation (r,m,n) out of Z**3 with r=f(n,m):=6*m*n+m+n for which you could pose these questions: a) Does at least one solution exist? b)...
Distributive semilattices are in Tamas Schmidt's booklet "Kongruenzrelationen Algebraischer Struckturen" (1968), p. 20. The idea is natural enough, but that's...
