We establish key connections between Green's $\cal J$- and $\cal L$-relations on a finite semigroup and the subduction relation defined on the image sets of an action of the same semigroup when it acts faithfully on a finite set. The…

A semigroup $S$ is right noetherian if every right congruence on $S$ is finitely generated. In this paper we present some fundamental properties of right noetherian semigroups, discuss how semigroups relate to their substructures with…

We give a description of finite semigroups $S$ that are minimal for not being Malcev nilpotent, i.e. every proper subsemigroup and every proper Rees factor semigroup is Malcev nilpotent but $S$ is not. For groups this question was…

We study when $R \to S$ has the property that prime ideals of $R$ extend to prime ideals or the unit ideal of $S$, and the situation where this property continues to hold after adjoining the same indeterminates to both rings. We prove that…

We study the class of groups having the property that every non-nilpotent subgroup is equal to its normalizer. These groups are either soluble or perfect. We completely describe the structure of soluble groups and finite perfect groups with…

This paper considers numerical semigroups $S$ that have a non-principal relative ideal $I$ such that $\mu_S(I)\mu_S(S-I)=\mu_S(I+(S-I)) $. We show the existence of an infinite family of such which $I+(S-I)=S\backslash\{0\}$. We also show…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be an $IC\Phi$-subgroup of $G$ if $H \cap [H,G] \le \Phi(H)$. We analyze the structure of a finite group $G$ under the assumption that some given subgroups of $G$ are $IC\Phi$-subgroups of $G$. A new…

We have a quick look at various finite model properties for residuated semigroups. In particular, we solve Problem 19.17 from Relation Algebras by Games by Hirsch and Hodkinson.

We look at spaces of infinite-by-infinite matrices, and consider closed subsets that are stable under simultaneous row and column operations. We prove that up to symmetry, any of these closed subsets is defined by finitely many equations.

For any semiring, the concept of k-congruences is introduced, criteria for k-congruences are established, it is proved that there is an inclusion-preserving bijection between k-congruences and k-ideals, and an equivalent condition for the…

We characterize when the monomial maximal ideal of a simplicial affine semigroup ring has a monomial minimal reduction. When this is the case, we study the Cohen-Macaulay and Gorenstein properties of the associated graded ring and provide…

We consider a finiteness condition on centralizers in a group G, namely that |C_G (x) : <x>| is finite for every non-normal cyclic subgroup <x> of G. For periodic groups, this is the same as |C_G (x)| is finite for every non-normal cyclic…

Every semigroup containing an ideal subgroup is called a homogroup, and it is a grouplike if and only if it has only one central idempotent. On the other hand, a class of algebraic structures covering group-$e$-semigroups…

We establish several finiteness properties of groups defined by algebraic difference equations. One of our main results is that a subgroup of the general linear group defined by possibly infinitely many algebraic difference equations in the…

For commutative rings with identity, we introduce and study the concept of semi $r$-ideals which is a kind of generalization of both $r$-ideals and semiprime ideals. A proper ideal $I$ of a commutative ring $R$ is called semi $r$-ideal if…

We obtain sufficient conditions for conservativity of minimal quantum dynamical semigroup by modifying and extending the method used in [Chebotarev and Fagnola, J. Funct. Anal. 153(1998), 382-404]. Our criterion for conservativity can be…

We consider a very weak chain condition for a poset, that is the absence of subsets which are order isomorphic to the set of real numbers in their natural ordering; we study generalised radical groups in which this finiteness condition is…

The aim of this paper is to study some distinguished classes of $k$-ideals of semirings, which include $k$-prime, $k$-semiprime, $k$-radical, $k$-irreducible, and $k$-strongly irreducible ideals. We discuss some of the properties of…

This paper defines and develops cycle indices for the finite classical groups. These tools are then applied to study properties of a random matrix chosen uniformly from one of these groups. Properties studied by this technique will include…

In this paper, we establish sufficient conditions for the existence of error bounds at infinity for lower semicontinuous inequality systems. We also show that the existence of an error bound at infinity of constraint systems plays an…
