We give a closed formula for the number of partitions $\lambda$ of $n$ such that the corresponding irreducible representation $V_\lambda$ of $S_n$ has non-trivial determinant. We determine how many of these partitions are self-conjugate and…

In this paper, we assume that $G$ is a finitely generated torsion free non-elementary Kleinian group with $\Omega(G)$ nonempty. We show that the maximal number of elements of $G$ that can be pinched is precisely the maximal number of rank 1…

Let $\Gamma^{+}$ be the positive cone of a totally ordered abelian discrete group $\Gamma$, and $\alpha$ an action of $\Gamma^{+}$ by extendible endomorphisms of a $C^*$-algebra $A$. We prove that the partial-isometric crossed product…

Jackson and Lee proved that certain six-element monoid generates a hereditarily finitely based variety $\mathbb E^1$ whose lattice of subvarieties contains an infinite ascending chain. We identify syntactic monoids which generate finitely…

Let $S$ be a submonoid of a free Abelian group of finite rank. We show that if $k$ is a field of prime characteristic such that the monoid $k$-algebra $k[S]$ is split $F$-regular, then $k[S]$ is a finitely generated $k$-algebra, or…

A partition of $n$ is called a $t$-core partition if none of its hook number is divisible by $t.$ In 2019, Hirschhorn and Sellers \cite{Hirs2019} obtained a parity result for $3$-core partition function $a_3(n)$. Motivated by this result,…

We study the generating function of the excess number of Rogers-Ramanujan partitions with odd rank over those with even rank, and, using combinatorial and analytical techniques, show that this generating function is closely connected with…

We build an analogue of the Gromov boundary for any proper geodesic metric space, hence for any finitely generated group. More precisely, for any proper geodesic metric space $X$ and any sublinear function $\kappa$, we construct a boundary…

Under the relation of $0$-concordance, the set of knotted 2-spheres in $S^4$ forms a commutative monoid $\mathcal{M}_0$ with the operation of connected sum. Sunukjian has recently shown that $\mathcal{M}_0$ contains a submonoid isomorphic…

It is a classical result that the direct product AxB of two groups is finitely generated (finitely presented) if and only if A and B are both finitely generated (finitely presented). This is also true for direct products of monoids, but not…

Given an arbitrary group $G$ we construct a semigroup of idempotents (band) $B_G$ with the property that the free idempotent generated semigroup over $B_G$ has a maximal subgroup isomorphic to $G$. If $G$ is finitely presented then $B_G$ is…

We prove that the generating polynomials of partitions of an $n$-element set into non-singleton blocks, counted by the number of blocks, have real roots only and we study the asymptotic behavior of the leftmost roots. We apply this…

Let $\mathcal X$ be an infinite locally compact separable metric space with metric $\rho$ and let $f : \mathcal X \longrightarrow \mathcal X$ be a continuous weakly mixing map. Let $\beta = \sup \big\{ \rho(x, y): \{x, y \} \subset \mathcal…

Given a topological property $P$, we say that the space $X$ is $P$-generated if for any subset $A\subset X$ that is not open in $X$ there is a subspace $Y \subset X$ with property $P$ such that $A\cap Y$ is not open in $Y$. (Of course, in…

As defined by Guralnick and Saxl, given a nonabelian simple group $S$ and its nonidentity automorphism $x$, a natural number $\alpha_S(x)$ is the minimum number of conjugates of $x$ in $\langle x,S\rangle$ that generate a subgroup…

In an additive factorial monoid each element can be represented as a linear combination of irreducible elements (atoms) with uniquely determined coefficients running over all natural numbers. In this paper we develop for a wide class of…

Given a finitely generated relatively hyperbolic group $G$, we construct a finite generating set $X$ of $G$ such that $(G,X)$ has the `falsification by fellow traveler property' provided that the parabolic subgroups $\{H_\omega\}_{\omega\in…

Given two nonempty subsets $A, B$ of a group $G$, they are said to form a co-minimal pair if $A \cdot B = G$, and $A' \cdot B \subsetneq G$ for any $\emptyset \neq A' \subsetneq A$ and $A\cdot B' \subsetneq G$ for any $\emptyset \neq B'…

Let $S$ be a semigroup, $\Lambda$ a non-empty set and $P$ a mapping of $\Lambda$ into $S$. The set $S\times \Lambda$ together with the operation $\circ _P$ defined by $(s, \lambda)\circ _P(t, \mu )=(sP(\lambda)t, \mu )$ form a semigroup…

Variable-length codes are the bases of the free submonoids of a free monoid. There are some important longstanding open questions about the structure of finite maximal codes, namely the factorization conjecture and the triangle conjecture,…
