Partially ordered sets Definition A partial order is a binary relation ≤ over a set M such that ∀a ∈ M a ≤ a (reflexivity); ∀a, b ∈ M a ≤ b and b ≤ a implies a = b (antisymmetry); ∀a, b, c ∈ M a ≤ b and b ≤ c implies a ≤ c (transitivity). Definition A set M with a partial order is called a partially ordered set (poset).

Linearly ordered abelian groups Definition A set A equipped with addition + and a linear order ≤ is called linearly ordered abelian group if

  • 1. A, + is an abelian group;
  • 2. A, ≤ is a linearly ordered set;
  • 3. ∀a, b, c ∈ A a ≤ b implies a + c ≤ b + c.

Definition The semigroup A+ of all nonnegative elements of A is defined by A+ = {a ∈ A | 0 ≤ a}.

Flows The A− dimensional function d : M → A+ defines an equivalence relation ∼d on M by m1 ∼d m2 ↔ d(m1) = d(m2). Let [m1] ≤d [m2] ↔ d(m1) ≤ d(m2). Then the linearly ordered set M/ ∼d is a homomorphic image of M. Definition The set M/ ∼d is called a d−flow. The order type of a d−flow is denoted by πd(M).

Equivalence of dimensional functions Definition Let M be a poset and suppose d1, d2 are dimensional functions

  • ver M with values in some linearly ordered abelian groups. Then

d1 ∼ d2 if the order types πd1(M) and πd2(M) are isomorphic. Fact A poset M may have non-equivalent dimensional functions.

Example of non-equivalent dimensional functions Example Let L1 = {[0, 1], 2, 3, [4, 5]} and L2 = {[6, 7], 8, [9, 10]}, with the natural order on them, and suppose that all elements of L1 and L2 are non-comparable. Let M = L1 ∪ L2. Then M admits non-equivalent dimensional functions. Define d1 : M → R as follows: let d1 shift all elements of L2 to the left by 1, and let it fix L1. In this case, πd1(M) = {[0, 1], 2, 3, [4, 6], 7, [8, 9]}. Define d2 : M → R as follows: let d2 map L2 into {[−4, −3], −2, [−1, 0]}, and let it fix L1. In this case, πd2(M) = {[−4, −3], −2, [−1, 1], 2, 3, [4, 5]}. Clearly, d1, d2 are dimensional functions, but πd1(M) and πd2(M) are non-isomorphic. Therefore, d1 is not equivalent to d2.

Then L is the disjoint union of three languages: LM = {≤M}, where ≤M is a binary predicate; LA = {+, −, ≤A, 0}, where + is a binary predicate (addition), − is a unary predicate (inversion), and ≤A is a binary predicate of

Lattice dimensional functions Uuniversal algebra point of view: L is an algebraic system with two binary operations ∧ and ∨ satisfying universal identities: (L1) Laws of idempotency: ∀a a ∧ a = a, a ∨ a = a. (L2) Commutativity laws: ∀a, b a ∧ b = b ∧ a, a ∨ b = b ∨ a. (L3) Associativity laws: ∀a, b, c (a ∧ b) ∧ c = a ∧ (b ∧ c), (a ∨ b) ∨ c = a ∨ (b ∨ c). (L4) Absorption laws: ∀a, b a ∧ (a ∨ b) = a, a ∨ (a ∧ b) = a. Using these operations, one can define a partial order: a ≤ b ↔ a ∧ b = a.

Modular lattices Definition A lattice L is called modular, if ∀x∀y∀z ∈ L z ≤ x → x ∧ (y ∨ z) = (x ∧ y) ∨ z. For a modular lattice L with zero one can define a height function h : L → N: h(a) is the length of the longest maximal chain in the interval [0, a], if it exists, and h(a) = ∞, otherwise. Definition A lattice L is called a finite length lattice if h(a) < ∞ for all a ∈ L.

Modular lattices Jordan-Goelder theorem In a finite length modular lattice every two maximal chains in [0, a] have the same length and for all a, b ∈ L the following equality holds h(a) + h(b) = h(a ∧ b) + h(a ∨ b). From this condition it follows that for a finite length modular lattice there exists a lattice Z-dimensional function: the length function. The notion of lattice dimensional function allows us to transfer the notion of height to a wide class of modular lattices, preserving main properties of this notion.

Krull dimension for commutative Noetherian rings Definition Let k be a field, R be a commutative Noetherian k−algebra. Then the Krull dimension dimk(R) is the upper bound of the set of lengths of all prime ideals in R. Here the length of a prime ideal P in R is the upper bound of all integers m such that there exists a chain P0 P1 P1 . . . Pm = P of prime ideals of R. The set of prime ideals of R is called the spectrum (Spec(R)). The set Spec(R) admits a natural partial order.

Krull dimension for commutative Noetherian rings From our point of view: dimk(R) is Z−dimensional function d : Spec(R) → Z. Let kn be the n−dimensional affine space, AlgSn be a partially

  • rdered set of all algebraic subsets of X over k, and Γ(X) be the

coordinate ring. Then the function dim(X) = dimk(Γ(X)) is a Z− dimensional function for AlgSn. (One can find the definitions we use below in a series of papers on Universal Algebraic Geometry by Daniyarova, Miasnikov, R.)

Dimensional functions for regular subsets of a free group Let F = F(X) be a free group of finite rank. One can use a no-return random walk Ws (s ∈ (0, 1]) on the Cayley graph C(F, X) as a random generator of elements of F. We start at the identity element 1 and either do nothing with probability s (and return value 1 as the output of our random word generator),

  • r move to one of the 2m adjacent vertices with equal probabilities

(1 − s)/2m. If we are at a vertex v = 1, we either stop at v with probability s (and return the value v as the output), or move, with probability

from 1, thus producing a new freely reduced word vx±1

. It is easy to see that the probability µs(w) for our process to terminate at a word w is given by the formula µs(w) = s(1 − s)|w| 2m · (2m − 1)|w|−1 for w = 1 and µs(1) = s.

Dimensional functions for regular subsets of a free group Let R be a subset of the free group F and Sk = { w ∈ F | |w| = k } be the sphere of radius k in F. The ratio fk(R) = |R ∩ Sk| |Sk| is the frequency of elements from R among the words of length k in F. For R ⊆ F its measure µs(R) is defined by µs(R) =

w∈R µs(w).

Dimensional functions for regular subsets of a free group Let R be a regular subset of F(X) and let A = Q × Q with left lexicographical order. For any element of the class R = {R is regular in F(X)} we define a map d : R → A+ by d(R) = (µ0(R), λ(R0), ) where the negligible set R0 can be effectively constructed by R. Theorem The map d : R → A+ is an A−dimensional function.
