In this note we establish some connections between the theory of self-similar fractals in the sense of John E. Hutchinson (cf. [3]) and the theory of boundary quotients of $C^\ast$-algebras associated to monoids. Although we must leave…
Given a category, one may construct slices of it. That is, one builds a new category whose objects are the morphisms from the category with a fixed codomain and morphisms certain commutative triangles. If the category is a groupoid, so that…
We study the algebraic properties of binary relations whose underlying digraph is smooth, that is has no source or sink. Such objects have been studied as surjective hyper-operations (shops) on the corresponding vertex set, and as binary…
In this note we use the divisorial Zariski decomposition to give a more intrinsic version of the algebraic Morse inequalities.
In this paper subcentral (resp., central) idempotent series and composition subcentral (resp., central) idempotent series in an inverse semigroup are introduced and investigated. It is shown that if $S=EG$ is a factorizable inverse monoids…
This study aims to shed light on new (sub)classes of matroids originating from cluster algebras and investigate their properties. We focus on what we call cluster matroids and build some results on them. Then, we point out a relationship…
An element in Artin's braid group B_n is said to be periodic if some power of it lies in the center of B_n. In this paper we prove that all previously known algorithms for solving the conjugacy search problem in B_n are exponential in the…
This paper proposes a generalisation of the Pearson type II distribution, which shall termed Pearson Type II-Riesz distribution, based in the Kotz-Riesz distribution. Specifically, the central nonsingular matricvariate generalised Pearson…
In this article we study combinatorial non-positive curvature aspects of various simplicial complexes with natural $\widetilde A_n$ shaped simplicies, including Euclidean buildings of type $\widetilde A_n$ and Cayley graphs of Garside…
The Galerkin difference (GD) basis is a set of continuous, piecewise polynomials defined using a finite difference like grid of degrees of freedom. The one dimensional GD basis functions are naturally extended to multiple dimensions using…
The Whitehead asphericity problem, regarded as a problem of combinatorial group theory, asks whether any subpresentation of an aspherical group presentation is also aspherical. This is a long standing open problem which has attracted a lot…
We develop layered monoidal theories -- a generalisation of monoidal theories combining formal descriptions of a system at different levels of abstraction. Via their representation as string diagrams, monoidal theories provide a graphical…
We introduce several classes of monoids satisfying up to five axioms and establish basic theories on their arithmetics. The one satisfying all the axioms is named natural monoid. Two typical examples are 1) the monoid $\mathbb{N}$ of…
We study the partial Brauer monoid and its planar submonoid, the Motzkin monoid. We conduct a thorough investigation of the structure of both monoids, providing information on normal forms, Green's relations, regularity, ideals, idempotent…
For L a finite lattice, let C(L) denote the set of pairs g = (g_0,g_1) such that g_0 is a lower cover of g_1 and order it as follows: g <= d iff g_0 <= d_0, g_1 <= d_1, but not g_1 <= d_0. Let C(L,g) denote the connected component of g in…
A divisibility relation between the generators of a square-free monomial ideal formally encodes the situation when one generator divides the least common multiple of some other generators. The divisibility relations contribute to the…
The aim of the present work is to systematically study homomorphisms of Hecke and Artin monoids and thus to develop their comprehensive theory. Our original motivation was the striking observation that parabolic projections of Hecke monoids…
A class of discrete probability distributions contains distributions with limited support. A typical example is some variant of a Likert scale, with response mapped to either the $\{1, 2, \ldots, 5\}$ or $\{-3, -2, \ldots, 2, 3\}$ set. An…
We study the higher-derivative equations for gauge potentials of arbitrary mixed-symmetry type obtained by setting to zero the divergences of the corresponding curvature tensors. We show that they propagate the same reducible multiplets as…
Several monads of probability measures have been shown to have presentations as codensity monads over small categories of stochastic maps. This paper studies how three key properties of these probability monads, relevant to categorical…
