The set of idempotents of a regular semigroup is given an abstract characterization as a regular biordered set in [2], and in [4] it is shown how a biordered set can be associated with a complemented modular lattice. Von Neumann has shown…
Our aim in this paper is to initiate the study of exponent semigroups for rational matrices. We prove that every numerical semigroup is the exponent semigroup of some rational matrix. We also obtain lower bounds on the size of such matrices…
We introduce the quasi-ordinarization transform of a numerical semigroup. This transform will allow to organize all the semigroups of a given genus in a forest rooted at all quasi-ordinary semigroups with the given genus. This construction…
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 consider generalization of wellknown construction Kantor Double J({\Gamma}, {,}) (KKM Double, Kantor-King-McCrimmon Double), where basic algebra {\Gamma} is nonunital algebra. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a generalized…
We revisit classical gradient characterizations of quasiconvexity and provide corrected proofs that close gaps in earlier arguments. For the differentiable case of $\sigma$-quasiconvexity, we establish the full equivalence between several…
In this paper we study sub-semigroups of a zero-divisor semigroup $S$ determined by properties of the zero-divisor graph $\Gamma(S)$. We use these sub-semigroups to study the correspondence between zero- divisor semigroups and zero-divisor…
We obtain a complete description of the integer group determinants for SmallGroup(16,8), the semidihedral group of order 16. While this paper was in preparation, a complete descriptions for this group was independently obtained by Yuka…
In this paper, we investigate finitely generated groups of isometries of CAT(0) spaces containing some central hyperbolic isometry, and study CAT(0) groups. We show that every CAT(0) group $\Gamma$ has the semi-direct product structure…
An $L(2,1)$-labelling of a finite graph $\Gamma$ is a function that assigns integer values to the vertices $V(\Gamma)$ of $\Gamma$ (colouring of $V(\Gamma)$ by ${\mathbb{Z}}$) so that the absolute difference of two such values is at least…
In this article we introduce and study a class of finite groups for which the orders of normal subgroups satisfy a certain inequality. It is closely connected to some well-known arithmetic classes of natural numbers.
Version 2: Corrected Section 3.3: instead of lexicographical normal forms we now use a normal form due to V. Diekert and A. Muscholl. Consequent changes made and some misprints corrected. Using an analogue of Makanin-Razborov diagrams, we…
We prove that there exists a functorial correspondence between MV-algebras and partially cyclically ordered groups which are wound round of lattice-ordered groups. It follows that some results about cyclically ordered groups can be stated…
In this paper we give an algorithm for the computation of all the Arf numerical semigroups with a given genus. Moreover, we generalize the concept of genus of a numerical semigroup to good semigroups of $\mathbb{N}^r$ and we give a…
Suppose that $\tilde{G}$ is a connected reductive group defined over a field $k$, and $\Gamma$ is a finite group acting via $k$-automorphisms of $\tilde{G}$ satisfying a certain quasi-semisimplicity condition. Then the connected part of the…
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…
This is an introductory paper about the category of regular oriented matroids (ROMs). We compare the homotopy types of the categories of regular and binary matroids. For example, in the unoriented case, they have the same fundamental group…
The regular objects in various categories, such as maps, hypermaps or covering spaces, can be identified with the normal subgroups N of a given group \Gamma, with quotient group isomorphic to \Gamma/N. It is shown how to enumerate such…
Let $\mathcal{CP}_n$ be the semigroup of partial contraction mappings on $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ and let $\mathcal{OCP}_n$ and $\mathcal{ORCP}_n$ be its subsemigroups consisting of all order-preserving and of all order-preserving or…
This is a survey paper concerned with strongly continuous semigroups in a Banach algebra (often itself simply the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Banach space). These are defined either on $(0,\infty)$ or on a sector in the complex…
