Zappa-Sz\'ep products of Garside monoids
Abstract
A monoid is the internal Zappa-Sz\'ep product of two submonoids, if every element of admits a unique factorisation as the product of one element of each of the submonoids in a given order. This definition yields actions of the submonoids on each other, which we show to be structure preserving. We prove that is a Garside monoid if and only if both of the submonoids are Garside monoids. In this case, these factors are parabolic submonoids of and the Garside structure of can be described in terms of the Garside structures of the factors. We give explicit isomorphisms between the lattice structures of and the product of the lattice structures on the factors that respect the Garside normal forms. In particular, we obtain explicit natural bijections between the normal form language of and the product of the normal form languages of its factors.
