In this article, we show that for a partial skew group ring R*G, where R is a commutative ring, each non-zero ideal of R*G intersects R non-trivially if and only if R is a maximal commutative subring of R*G. As a consequence, we obtain…

Rays are classes of an equivalence relation on a module V over a supertropical semiring. They provide a version of convex geometry, supported by a "supertropical trigonometry" and compatible with quasilinearity, in which the CS-ratio takes…

In 1994, Matsuda and Okabe introduced the notion of semistar operation, extending the "classical" concept of star operation. In this paper, we introduce and study the notions of semistar linkedness and semistar flatness which are natural…

We show that for every quasivariety K of structures (where both functions and relations are allowed) there is a semilattice S with operators such that the lattice of quasi-equational theories of K (the dual of the lattice of…

Let $C \subset {\bf N}^d$ be an affine semigroup, and $R=K[C]$ its semigroup ring. This paper is a collection of various results on "$C$-graded" $R$-modules, especially, monomial ideals. For example, we show the following: If $R$ is normal…

We prove a characterization of a P$\star$MD, when $\star$ is a semistar operation, in terms of polynomials (by using the classical characterization of Pr\"{u}fer domains, in terms of polynomials given by R. Gilmer and J. Hoffman…

Let $C\subset\mathbb{N}^p$ be an integer polyhedral cone. An affine semigroup $S\subset C$ is a $ C$-semigroup if $| C\setminus S|<+\infty$. This structure has always been studied using a monomial order. The main issue is that the choice of…

Given a group G, we construct, in a canonical way, an inverse semigroup S(G) associated to G. The actions of S(G) are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with the partial actions of G, both in the case of actions on a set, and that of…

Let $S$ be an additively idempotent semiring and $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ be the semiring of all $n\times n$ matrices over $S$. We characterize the conditions of when the semiring $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ is congruence-simple provided that the semiring…

An algebraic group is called semi-reductive if it is a semi-direct product of a reductive subgroup and the unipotent radical. Such a semi-reductive algebraic group naturally arises and also plays a key role in the study of modular…

We provide a classification of congruence-simple semirings with a multiplicatively absorbing element and without non-trivial nilpotent elements.

Constellations are partial algebras that are one-sided generalisations of categories. It has previously been shown that the category of inductive constellations is isomorphic to the category of left restriction semigroups. Here we consider…

This paper concerns a number of diagram categories, namely the partition, planar partition, Brauer, partial Brauer, Motzkin and Temperley-Lieb categories. If $\mathcal K$ denotes any of these categories, and if $\sigma\in\mathcal K_{nm}$ is…

Let X be a normal projective variety admitting an action of a semisimple group with a unique closed orbit. We construct finitely many rational curves in X, all having a common point, such that every effective one-cycle on X is rationally…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a C*-algebra and $\alpha:\mathcal{C} \rightarrow \mathcal{C}$ a unital *-endomorphism. There is a natural way to construct operator algebras which are called semicrossed products, using a convolution induced by the…

We consider a very simple Mealy machine (three states over a two-symbol alphabet), and derive some properties of the semigroup it generates. In particular, this is an infinite, finitely generated semigroup; we show that the growth function…

If $S$ is a numerical semigroup, let $m(S,k)$ denote the number of ideals of $S$ with codimension $k$ and let $n(S,k)$ denote the number of ideals of $S$ with conductor $k$. We compute the generating function of the sequence $m(S,k)$ for…

We consider properties and applications of a new topology, called the Zariski topology, on the space ${\rm SStar}(A)$ of all the semistar operations on an integral domain $A$. We prove that the set of all overrings of $A$, endowed with the…

We show that a generalization of the theory of quantales and prequantales provides a noncommutative and nonassociative abstract ideal theoretic setting for the theories of star operations, semistar operations, semiprime operations, ideal…

Let $R$ be a unital $*$-ring. For any $a,w,b\in R$, we apply the defined $w$-core inverse to define a new class of partial orders in $R$, called the $w$-core partial order. Suppose $a,b\in R$ are $w$-core invertible. We say that $a$ is…
