We give a new definition of the semigroup C*-algebra of a left cancellative semigroup, which resolves problems of the construction by X. Li. Namely, the new construction is functorial, and the independence of ideals in the semigroup does…
In this paper we develop an ideal structure theory for the class of left reductive regular semigroups and apply it to several subclasses of popular interest. In these classes we observe that the right ideal structure of the semigroup is…
In this paper we provide an overview of the class of inverse semigroups $S$ such that every congruence on $S$ relates at least one idempotent to a non-idempotent; such inverse semigroups are called $E$-disjunctive. This overview includes…
An inverse semigroup $S$ is a Howson inverse semigroup if the intersection of finitely generated inverse subsemigroups of $S$ is finitely generated. Given a locally finite action $\theta$ of a group $G$ on a semilattice $E$, it is proved…
Inverse semigroups are the abstract counterparts of pseudogroups of transformations. The abstract counterparts of atlases in differential geometry are what Wagner termed `generalized heaps'. These are sets equipped with a ternary operation…
Let $G$ be a group which admits the structure of an iterated semidirect product of finitely generated free groups. We construct a finite, free resolution of the integers over the group ring of $G$. This resolution is used to define…
Paterson showed how to construct an etale groupoid from an inverse semigroup using ideas from functional analysis. This construction was later simplified by Lenz. We show that Lenz's construction can itself be further simplified by using…
Semigroup actions and their invertible extensions are discussed. First, we develop a theory of natural extensions for continuous actions of countable, embeddable semigroups. Second, we demonstrate that not every surjective such action of a…
We prove that every ordered partial action of an inverse semigroupoid on a partially ordered set admits a globalization. This result is used to establish a connection between ordered partial actions of groupoids and a multi-object analogue…
We introduce the notion of semigroup with a tight ideal series and investigate their closures in semitopological semigroups, particularly inverse semigroups with continuous inversion. As a corollary we show that the symmetric inverse…
We curry the elementary arithmetic operations of addition and multiplication to give monotone injections on N, and describe & study the inverse monoids that arise from also considering their generalised inverses. This leads to well-known…
The paper is an overview of recent results on algebraic structures (semigroups, groupoids, algebras, inverse semigroups, and groups) associated with objects with a rich set of partial symmetries. We discuss etale groupoids and inverse…
Geodesics and curvature of semidirect product groups with right invariant metrics are determined. In the special case of an isometric semidirect product, the curvature is shown to be the sum of the curvature of the two groups. A series of…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of the m-generalized right group inverse. This serves as a natural extension of both the m-weak group inverse and the generalized group inverse. We characterize this new generalized inverse using the…
Given an ample action of an inverse semigroup on a locally compact and Hausdorff topological space, we study the ideal structure of the crossed product algebra associated with it. By developing a theory of induced ideals, we manage to prove…
Given a $\Gamma$-semigroup $S$, we construct a semigroup $\Sigma$ in such a way that one sided ideals and quasi-ideals of $S$ can be regarded as one sided ideals and quasi-ideals respectively of $\Sigma$. This correspondence and other…
Recent research of the author has given an explicit geometric description of free (two-sided) adequate semigroups and monoids, as sets of labelled directed trees under a natural combinatorial multiplication. In this paper we show that there…
We construct bi-invariant total orderings of residually torsion-free nilpotent groups by using Chen's iterated integrals. This construction can be seen as a generalization of the Magnus ordering of the free groups, and equivalent to the…
We describe the structure of 0-simple countably compact topological inverse semigroups and the structure of congruence-free countably compact topological inverse semigroups.
In this paper there are considered some scalar valued groupoid bihomomorphism structures, being in fact the groupoid counterparts of the inner product notion originally defined for vectors. These bihomomorphisms, called here the semi-inner…
