In this paper we provide some relationships between Catalan's constant and the $_3{\rm F}_2$ and $_4{\rm F}_3$ hypergeometric functions, deriving them from some parametric integrals. In particular, using the complete elliptic integral of…
For a fixed odd prime $\ell$, we present new families of identities defined on various subposets of the poset of isomorphism classes of finite abelian $\ell$-groups, generalizing identities of Hall and Cohen-Lenstra. We also present a…
By the theorems of Cayley and Vagner-Preston, the full transformation monoids and the symmetric inverse monoids play analogous roles in the theory of monoids and inverse monoids, as the symmetric groups do in the theory of groups. Every…
A slight modification of the definition of the Thompson-Higman groups G_k1 and F_k1 leads to inverse monoids that map onto G_k1 (respectively F_k1), and that have interesting properties: they are finitely generated, and residually finite.…
We exhibit explicit and easily realisable bijections between Hecke--Kiselman monoids of type $A_n$/$\widetilde{A}_n$; certain braid diagrams on the plane/cylinder; and couples of integer sequences of particular types. This yields a fast…
For every number field $\mathbb{K}$, with $[\mathbb{K}:\mathbb{Q}] \geq 3$, we show that the number of non-associates of the same norm in a full module in $\mathbb{K}$ does not depend only on $\mathbb{K}$, but can also depend on the module…
In this paper, the Identity Problem for certain groups, which asks if the subsemigroup generated by a given finite set of elements contains the identity element, is related to problems regarding ordered groups. Notably, the Identity Problem…
We prove that it is decidable whether or not a finitely generated submonoid of a virtually free group is graded, introduce a new geometric characterization as quasi-geodesic monoids, and show that their word problem is rational (as a…
Suppose L is any finite algebraic extension of either the ordinary rational numbers or the p-adic rational numbers. Also let g_1,...,g_k be polynomials in n variables, with coefficients in L, such that the total number of monomial terms…
It is unknown so far, whether the lattice of all varieties of monoids satisfies some non-trivial identity. The objective of this note is to give the negative answer to this question. Namely, we prove that any finite lattice is a homomorphic…
Complete solutions of functional identities $\sum_{k\in K}F_k(\bar{x}_m^k)x_k = \sum_{l\in L}x_lG_l(\bar{x}_m^l)$ on the matrix algebra $M_n(\mathbb{F})$ are given. The nonstandard parts of these solutions turn out to follow from the…
We study algebras satisfying a two-term multilinear identity, namely one of the form $x_1 \cdots x_n= q x_{\sigma(1)} \cdots x_{\sigma(n)}$, where $q$ is a parameter from the base field. We show that such algebras with $q=1$ and $\sigma$…
We investigate the notion of soficity for monoids. A group is sofic as a group if and only if it is sofic as a monoid. All finite monoids, all commutative monoids, all free monoids, all cancellative one-sided amenable monoids, all…
It is a widely open problem to determine which monomials in the n-variable polynomial ring $K[x_1,...,x_n]$ over a field $K$ have the Gotzmann property, i.e. induce a Borel-stable Gotzmann monomial ideal. Since 2007, only the case $n \le 3$…
Let $R$ be a semiartinian (von Neumann) regular ring with primitive factors artinian. The dimension sequence $\mathcal D _R$ is an invariant that captures the various skew-fields and dimensions occurring in the layers of the socle sequence…
Given an integer $M\geq 2$, we deploy the generating function techniques to compute the number of $M$-th roots of identity in some of the well-known finite groups of Lie type, more precisely for finite general linear groups, symplectic…
This paper uses the combinatorics of Young tableaux to prove the plactic monoid of infinite rank does not satisfy a non-trivial identity, by showing that the plactic monoid of rank $n$ cannot satisfy a non-trivial identity of length less…
We show that the following semirings satisfy the same identities: the semiring $\mathcal{R}_n$ of all reflexive binary relations on a set with $n$ elements, the semiring $\mathcal{U}_n$ of all $n\times n$ upper triangular matrices over the…
The main result of this paper is to show that all binomial identities are orderable. This is a natural statement in the combinatorial theory of finite sets, which can also be applied in distributed computing to derive new strong bounds on…
We study the finite basis problem for $4$-element additively idempotent semirings whose additive reducts are quasi-antichains. Up to isomorphism, there are $93$ such algebras. We show that with the exception of the semiring $S_{(4, 435)}$,…
