The power semigroup of a semigroup $ S $ is the semigroup of all nonempty subsets of $ S $ equipped with the naturally defined multiplication. A class $\mathcal{K} $ of semigroups is globally determined if any two members of $ \mathcal{K} $…
Lee and Kwon [12] defined an ordered semigroup S to be completely regular if a 2 (a2Sa2] for every a 2 S. We characterize every completely regular ordered semigroup as a union of t-simple subsemigroups, and every Clifford ordered semigroup…
Let us call a (para)topological group \emph{strongly submetrizable} if it admits a coarser separable metrizable (para)topological group topology. We present a characterization of simply $sm$-factorizable (para)topo\-logical groups by means…
In this paper, we classify finite categories with two objects such that one of the endomorphism monoids is a group. We prove that having a group on one side affects the structure of the other endomorphism monoid, and we prove that it is…
We associate a 2-complex to the following data: a presentation of a semigroup $S$ and a transitive action of $S$ on a set $V$ by partial transformations. The automorphism group of the action acts properly discontinuously on this 2-complex.…
In this paper we study the reflections of the category of topological and semitopological semigroups on the category of the class of topological spaces satisfying separation axioms $T_{0}$, $T_{1}$, $T_{2}$, $T_{3}$ and regular and we apply…
We prove a semisimplicity result for the boundary, in the corresponding Deligne-Mumford compactification, of a totally geodesic subvariety of a moduli space of Riemann surfaces. At the level of Teichm\"uller space, this semisimplicity…
It is shown that a flat subgroup, $H$, of the totally disconnected, locally compact group $G$ decomposes into a finite number of subsemigroups on which the scale function is multiplicative. The image, $P$, of a multiplicative semigroup in…
In this paper we give conditions under which a topological semigroup can be embedded algebraically and topologically into a compact topological group. We prove that every feebly compact regular first countable cancellative commutative…
We show that a topological semigroup of finite partial bijections $\mathscr{I}_\lambda^n$ of an infinite set with a compact subsemigroup of idempotents is absolutely $H$-closed and any countably compact topological semigroup does not…
Given a $T_0$ paratopological group $G$ and a class $\mathcal C$ of continuous homomorphisms of paratopological groups, we define the $\mathcal C$-$semicompletion$ $\mathcal C[G)$ and $\mathcal C$-$completion$ $\mathcal C[G]$ of the group…
Let $\mathcal C$ be a class of Hausdorff topological semigroups which contains all zero-dimensional Hausdorff topological semigroups. A semigroup $X$ is called $\mathcal C$-$closed$ if $X$ is closed in each topological semigroup $Y\in…
I explicitly compute the Eilenberg-Mac Lane homology of a completely simple semigroup using topological means. I also complete Gray and Pride's investigation into the homological finiteness properties of completely simple semigroups, as…
Ellis's "functional approach" allows one to obtain proper compactifications of a topological group $G$ if $G$ can be represented as a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of a space $X$ in the topology of pointwise convergence and $G$-space…
We introduce two minimality properties of subgroups in topological groups. A subgroup $H$ is a key subgroup (co-key subgroup) of a topological group $G$ if there is no strictly coarser Hausdorff group topology on $G$ which induces on $H$…
Let $\mathcal C$ be a class of $T_1$ topological semigroups, containing all Hausdorff zero-dimensional topological semigroups. A semigroup $X$ is $\mathcal C$-$closed$ if $X$ is closed in any topological semigroup $Y\in\mathcal C$ that…
Fix a finite semigroup $S$ and let $a_1, \ldots, a_k, b$ be tuples in a direct power $S^n$. The subpower membership problem (SMP) for $S$ asks whether $b$ can be generated by $a_1, \ldots, a_k$. For combinatorial Rees matrix semigroups we…
We describe the structure of Hausdorff locally compact semitopological $0$-bisimple inverse $\omega$-semigroups with compact maximal subgroups. In particular, we show that a Hausdorff locally compact semitopological $0$-bisimple inverse…
In this paper we focus on Rees $I\times \Lambda$ matrix semigroups without zero over a semigroup $S$ with $\Lambda\times I$ sandwich matrix $P$, where $I$ is a singleton, $\Lambda$ is the factor semigroup of $S$ modulo the kernel $\theta_S$…
Let $\mathbb{Z}$ be the additive (semi)group of integers. We prove that for a finite semigroup $S$ the direct product $\mathbb{Z}\times S$ contains only countably many subdirect products (up to isomorphism) if and only if $S$ is regular. As…
