A random rooted graph is said to be sofic if it is the Benjamini-Schramm limit of a sequence of finite graphs. Given any finite graph $H$, we prove that every one-ended, unimodular random rooted graph that does not have H as a minor must be…
We give a short proof that every finite graph (or matroid) has a tree-decomposition that displays all maximal tangles. This theorem for graphs is a central result of the graph minors project of Robertson and Seymour and the extension to…
Graph grammars extend the theory of formal languages in order to model distributed parallelism in theoretical computer science. We show here that to certain classes of context-free and context-sensitive graph grammars one can associate a…
This article is partly a survey and partly a research paper. It tackles the use of Groebner bases for addressing problems of numerical semigroups, which is a topic that has been around for some years, but it does it in a systematic way…
Working in any model theoretic structure, we single out a class of definable bipartite graphs that admit definable, close to perfect matchings. We use this result to prove a strengthening of Tarski's theorem for the definable setting.
This paper classifies the derivations of group algebras in terms of the generators and defining relations of the group. If $RG$ is a group ring, where $R$ is commutative and $S$ is a set of generators of $G$ then necessary and sufficient…
This work studies slice functions over finite-dimensional division algebras. Their zero sets are studied in detail along with their multiplicative inverses, for which some unexpected phenomena are discovered. The results are applied to…
Quasi-trees generalize trees in that the unique "path" between two nodes may be infinite and have any countable order type. They are used to define the rank-width of a countable graph in such a way that it is equal to the least upper-bound…
We study almost symmetric numerical semigroups and semigroup rings. We describe a characteristic property of the minimal free resolution of the semigroup ring of an almost symmetric numerical semigroup. For almost symmetric semigroups…
This note is a short introduction to the Julia-Wolff-Carath\'eodory theorem, and its generalizations in several complex variables, up to very recent results for infinitesimal generators of semigroups.
We use the representation theory of preprojective algebras to construct and study certain cluster algebras related to semisimple algebraic groups.
The problem of finding graph structure of functions commuting with a given function in terms of their functional graphs is considered. Structure of functional graphs of commuting functions is described. The problem is reduced to describing…
We present simple graph-theoretic characterizations of Cayley graphs for left-cancellative monoids, groups, left-quasigroups and quasigroups. We show that these characterizations are effective for the end-regular graphs of finite degree.
Let $G$ be a simple and finite graph without isolated vertices. In this paper we introduce and study a new degree sequence derived invariant called the \emph{sub-total domination number}, denoted $\sub_t(G)$. In particular, we show that…
We explore a general method based on trees of elementary submodels in order to present highly simplified proofs to numerous results in infinite combinatorics. While countable elementary submodels have been employed in such settings already,…
At the core of the Robertson-Seymour theory of graph minors lies a powerful structure theorem which captures, for any fixed graph H, the common structural features of all the graphs not containing H as a minor. Robertson and Seymour prove…
Approximate algebraic structures play a defining role in arithmetic combinatorics and have found remarkable applications to basic questions in number theory and pseudorandomness. Here we study approximate representations of finite groups:…
We define a canonical relative commutant planar algebra from a strongly Markov inclusion of finite von Neumann algebras. In the case of a connected unital inclusion of finite dimensional C*-algebras with the Markov trace, we show this…
We characterize the fundamental group of a locally finite graph G with ends combinatorially, as a group of infinite words. Our characterization gives rise to a canonical embedding of this group in the inverse limit of the (free) fundamental…
In this paper we discuss graph inverse semigroups which are constucted from a directed graphs and study several interesting properties of graph inverse semigroups such as the nature of its idempotents, the structure of semilattice of…
