We prove a sufficient condition under which a semigroup admits no finite identity basis. As an application, it is shown that the identities of the Kauffman monoid $\mathcal{K}_n$ are nonfinitely based for each $n\ge 3$. This result holds…
We observe that for each $n\ge 2$, the identities of the stylic monoid with $n$ generators coincide with the identities of $n$-generated monoids from other distinguished series of $\mathscr{J}$-trivial monoids studied in the literature,…
Combining the definition of 0-Hecke monoids with that of Kiselman semigroups, we define what we call Kiselman quotients of 0-Hecke monoids associated with simply laced Dynkin diagrams. We classify these monoids up to isomorphism, determine…
We show that the 42-element monoid of all partial order preserving and extensive injections on the 4-element chain is not contained in any variety generated by a finitely based finite $\mathcal{R}$-trivial semigroup. This provides unified…
We present a general method for proving that a semigroup is non-finitely based. The method is strong enough to cover the non-finite basis arguments in articles [1,3,4,5,7,8, 11,14,16,21,27,31,36,37]. In particular, the method allows to…
We establish a new sufficient condition under which a monoid is non-finitely based and apply this condition to show that the 9-element monoid $L_4^1$ is non-finitely based. The monoid $L_4^1$ was the only unsolved case in the finite basis…
This paper presents new results on the identities satisfied by the sylvester and Baxter monoids. We show how to embed these monoids, of any rank strictly greater than 2, into a direct product of copies of the corresponding monoid of rank 2.…
This paper presents new results on the identities satisfied by the hypoplactic monoid. We show how to embed the hypoplactic monoid of any rank strictly greater than 2 (including infinite rank) into a direct product of copies of the…
Kauffman monoids $\mathcal{K}_n$ and Jones monoids $\mathcal{J}_n$, $n=2,3,\dots$, are two families of monoids relevant in knot theory. We prove a somewhat counterintuitive result that the Kauffman monoids $\mathcal{K}_3$ and…
In this paper, we give a characterization of digraphs $Q, |Q|\leq 4$ such that the associated Hecke-Kiselman monoid $H_Q$ is finite. In general, a necessary condition for $H_Q$ to be a finite monoid is that $Q$ is acyclic and its Coxeter…
For each positive $n$, let $u_n = v_n$ denote the identity obtained from the Adjan identity $(xy) (yx) (xy) (xy) (yx) = (xy) (yx) (yx) (xy) (yx)$ by substituting $(xy) \rightarrow (x_1 x_2 \dots x_n)$ and $(yx) \rightarrow (x_n \dots x_2…
We show that the monoid of all injective and extensive partial transformations of a chain with three elements admits no finite basis of its identities. This completes solving of the finite basis problem for the monoids in the basic frame of…
We present a method for proving that a semigroup is finitely based and find some new sufficient conditions under which a monoid is finitely based. As an application, we find a class of finite monoids where the finite basis property behaves…
We study the semigroup identities satisfied by finite rank plactic monoids. We find a new set of semigroup identities of the plactic monoid of rank $n$ for $n \geq 4$, which are shorter than those previously known when $n \geq 6$. Using…
A finite semigroup is finitely related (has finite degree) if its term functions are determined by a finite set of finitary relations. For example, it is known that all nilpotent semigroups are finitely related. A nilpotent monoid is a…
We establish a new sufficient condition under which a monoid is non-finitely based and apply this condition to Lee monoids $L_\ell^1$, obtained by adjoining an identity element to the semigroup generated by two idempotents $a$ and $b$…
In this paper, we introduce and study a class of monoids, called Layered Catalan Monoids (\( {LC}_n \)), which satisfy the structural conditions for $\ll$-smoothness as defined in~\cite{Sha-Det2}. These monoids are defined by specific…
We study the Identity Problem, the problem of determining if a finitely generated semigroup of matrices contains the identity matrix; see Problem 3 (Chapter 10.3) in ``Unsolved Problems in Mathematical Systems and Control Theory'' by…
We study the Finite Basis Problem for finite additively idempotent semirings whose multiplicative reducts are inverse semigroups. In particular, we show that each additively idempotent semiring whose multiplicative reduct is a nontrivial…
Let $G$ be a unitriangular matrix group of nilpotency class at most ten. We show that the Identity Problem (does a semigroup contain the identity matrix?) and the Group Problem (is a semigroup a group?) are decidable in polynomial time for…
