## Which outer reloids are equal to inner ones ★★

Author(s): Porton

Warning: This formulation is vague (not exact).

\begin{question} Characterize the set $\{f\in\mathsf{FCD} \mid (\mathsf{RLD})_{\mathrm{in}} f=(\mathsf{RLD})_{\mathrm{out}} f\}$. In other words, simplify this formula. \end{question}

The problem seems rather difficult.

## A diagram about funcoids and reloids ★★

Author(s): Porton

Define for posets with order $\sqsubseteq$:

1. $\Phi_{\ast} f = \lambda b \in \mathfrak{B}: \bigcup \{ x \in \mathfrak{A} \mid f x \sqsubseteq b \}$;
2. $\Phi^{\ast} f = \lambda b \in \mathfrak{A}: \bigcap \{ x \in \mathfrak{B} \mid f x \sqsupseteq b \}$.

Note that the above is a generalization of monotone Galois connections (with $\max$ and $\min$ replaced with suprema and infima).

Then we have the following diagram:

What is at the node "other" in the diagram is unknown.

\begin{conjecture} "Other" is $\lambda f\in\mathsf{FCD}: \top$. \end{conjecture}

\begin{question} What repeated applying of $\Phi_{\ast}$ and $\Phi^{\ast}$ to "other" leads to? Particularly, does repeated applying $\Phi_{\ast}$ and/or $\Phi^{\ast}$ to the node "other" lead to finite or infinite sets? \end{question}

Keywords: Galois connections

## Outward reloid of composition vs composition of outward reloids ★★

Author(s): Porton

\begin{conjecture} For every composable funcoids $f$ and $g$ $$(\mathsf{RLD})_{\mathrm{out}}(g\circ f)\sqsupseteq(\mathsf{RLD})_{\mathrm{out}}g\circ(\mathsf{RLD})_{\mathrm{out}}f.$$ \end{conjecture}

## Sum of prime and semiprime conjecture ★★

Author(s): Geoffrey Marnell

## A funcoid related to directed topological spaces ★★

Author(s): Porton

\begin{conjecture} Let $R$ be the complete funcoid corresponding to the usual topology on extended real line $[-\infty,+\infty] = \mathbb{R}\cup\{-\infty,+\infty\}$. Let $\geq$ be the order on this set. Then $R\sqcap^{\mathsf{FCD}}\mathord{\geq}$ is a complete funcoid. \end{conjecture}

\begin{proposition} It is easy to prove that $\langle R\sqcap^{\mathsf{FCD}}\mathord{\geq}\rangle \{x\}$ is the infinitely small right neighborhood filter of point $x\in[-\infty,+\infty]$. \end{proposition}

If proved true, the conjecture then can be generalized to a wider class of posets.

## Convex Equipartitions with Extreme Perimeter ★★

Author(s): Nandakumar

To divide a given 2D convex region C into a specified number n of convex pieces all of equal area (perimeters could be different) such that the total perimeter of pieces is (1) maximized (2) minimized.

## What are hyperfuncoids isomorphic to? ★★

Author(s): Porton

Let $\mathfrak{A}$ be an indexed family of sets.

\emph{Products} are $\prod A$ for $A \in \prod \mathfrak{A}$.

\emph{Hyperfuncoids} are filters $\mathfrak{F} \Gamma$ on the lattice $\Gamma$ of all finite unions of products.

\begin{problem} Is $\bigcap^{\mathsf{\tmop{FCD}}}$ a bijection from hyperfuncoids $\mathfrak{F} \Gamma$ to: \begin{enumerate} \item prestaroids on $\mathfrak{A}$; \item staroids on $\mathfrak{A}$; \item completary staroids on $\mathfrak{A}$? \end{enumerate} If yes, is $\operatorname{up}^{\Gamma}$ defining the inverse bijection? If not, characterize the image of the function $\bigcap^{\mathsf{\tmop{FCD}}}$ defined on $\mathfrak{F} \Gamma$.

Consider also the variant of this problem with the set $\Gamma$ replaced with the set $\Gamma^{\ast}$ of complements of elements of the set $\Gamma$. \end{problem}
