This paper is a continuation of the paper "Numerical Semigroups: Ap\'ery Sets and Hilbert Series". We consider the general numerical AA-semigroup, i.e., semigroups consisting of all non-negative integer linear combinations of relatively…

We introduce a module-theoretic approach and a linear-programming method to compute the matricial dimension of numerical semigroups. We use these to compute the matricial dimension of every numerical semigroup with Frobenius number at most…

Generators of positive C_0-semigroups on C^*-algebras and C_0^*-semigroups on von Neumann algebras are examined. A characterization due to Bratteli and Robinson in the C_0-case is proven in the C_0^*-case. Under the additional assumptions…

Let $\Omega$ be a group with identity $e$, $\Gamma$ be a $\Omega$-graded commutative ring and $\Im$ a graded $\Gamma$-module. In this article, we introduce the concept of $gr$-$C$-$2^{A}$-secondary submodules and investigate some properties…

Given a locally compact abelian group $G$ and a closed subgroup $\Lambda$ in $G\times\widehat{G}$, Rieffel associated to $\Lambda$ a Hilbert $C^*$-module $\mathcal{E}$, known as a Heisenberg module. He proved that $\mathcal{E}$ is an…

A numerical semigroup is a submonoid of ${\mathbb Z}_{\ge 0}$ whose complement in ${\mathbb Z}_{\ge 0}$ is finite. For any set of positive integers $a,b,c$, the numerical semigroup $S(a,b,c)$ formed by the set of solutions of the inequality…

Starting from the symmetric group $S_n$, we construct two fiat $2$-categories. One of them can be viewed as the fiat "extension" of the natural $2$-category associated with the symmetric inverse semigroup (considered as an ordered semigroup…

We revisit classical "on shell" duality, i.e., pseudoduality, in two dimensional conformally invariant classical sigma models and find some new interesting results. We show that any two sigma models that are "on shell" duals have opposite…

For a congruence subgroup $\Gamma$, we define the notion of $\Gamma$-equivalence on binary quadratic forms which is the same as proper equivalence if $\Gamma = \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb Z)$. We develop a theory on $\Gamma$-equivalence such as…

For an intra-regular or a left regular and left duo ordered $\Gamma$-semigroup $M$, we describe the principal filter of $M$ which plays an essential role in the structure of this type of $po$-$\Gamma$-semigroups. We also prove that an…

Let $(A,\Delta)$ be a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra. The linear dual $B$ of $A$ is again a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra. The duality is given by an element $V\in B\otimes A$, defined by $\langle V,a\otimes b\rangle=\langle a,b\rangle$…

A numerical semigroup is a sub-semigroup of the natural numbers that has a finite complement. Some of the key properties of a numerical semigroup are its Frobenius number F, genus g and type t. It is known that for any numerical semigroup…

The goal of the course was a review of results mainly due to M. Olbrich and the first author. We consider a discrete cocompact subgroup $\Gamma$ of a semisimple Lie group $G$. We relate the group cohomology of $\Gamma$ with coefficients in…

We improve on earlier results on the closure under free products of the class of automaton semigroups. We consider partial automata and show that the free product of two self-similar semigroups (or automaton semigroups) is self-similar (an…

We derive polynomial identities of arbitrary degree $n$ for syzygies degrees of numerical semigroups S_m=<d_1,...,d_m> and show that for n>=m they contain higher genera G_r=\sum_{s\in Z_>\setminus S_m}s^r of S_m. We find a number…

For a digraph $\Gamma$, if $F$ is the smallest field that contains all roots of the characteristic polynomial of the adjacency matrix of $\Gamma$, then $F$ is called the splitting field of $\Gamma$. The extension degree of $F$ over the…

The rank of a finite semigroup is the smallest number of elements required to generate the semigroup. A formula is given for the rank of an arbitrary (non necessarily regular) Rees matrix semigroup over a group. The formula is expressed in…
