We introduce a class of inverse monoids, called Tarski monoids, that can be regarded as non-commutative generalizations of the unique countable, atomless Boolean algebra. These inverse monoids are related to a class of etale topological…

We introduce a class of inverse monoids that can be regarded as non-commutative generalizations of Boolean algebras. These inverse monoids are related to a class of \'etale topological groupoids, under a non-commutative generalization of…

This is an expository paper which provides a quick introduction to Boolean inverse semigroups and their type monoids, with the emphasis on techniques and insights of the theory, and also treats the connection of the type monoid…

A pseudogroup is a complete infinitely distributive inverse monoid. Such inverse monoids bear the same relationship to classical pseudogroups of transformations as frames do to topological spaces. The goal of this paper is to develop the…

The goal of invariant theory is to find all the generators for the algebra of representations of a group that leave the group invariant. Such generators will be called \emph{basic invariants}. In particular, we set out to find the set of…

We describe the structure of finite Boolean inverse monoids and apply our results to the representation theory of finite inverse semigroups. We then generalize to semisimple Boolean inverse semigroups.

We examine from an invariant theory viewpoint the monoid algebras for two monoids having large symmetry groups. The first monoid is the free left-regular band on $n$ letters, defined on the set of all injective words, that is, the words…

We prove that the category of boolean inverse monoids is dually equivalent to the category of boolean groupoids. This generalizes the classical Stone duality between boolean algebras and boolean spaces. As an instance of this duality, we…

In an earlier work, the author observed that Boolean inverse semi-groups, with semigroup homomorphisms preserving finite orthogonal joins, form a congruence-permutable variety of algebras, called biases. We give a full description of…

Under non-commutative Stone duality, there is a correspondence between second countable Hausdorff \'etale groupoids which have a Cantor space of identities and what we call Tarski inverse monoids: that is, countable Boolean inverse…

Consider the diagonal action of the special orthogonal group on the direct sum of a finite number of copies of the standard representation--the underlying field is assumed to be algebraically closed and of characteristic not equal to two.…

To a Boolean inverse monoid $S$ we associate a universal C*-algebra $C_B^*(S)$ and show that it is equal to Exel's tight C*-algebra of $S$. We then show that any invariant mean on $S$ (in the sense of Kudryavtseva, Lawson, Lenz and Resende)…

The theory of Topological Modular Forms suggests the existence of deformation invariants for two-dimensional supersymmetric field theories that are more refined than the standard elliptic genus. In this note we give a physical definition of…

We show explicitly that Boolean inverse semigroups are in duality with what we term Boolean groupoids. This generalizes the classical Stone duality, which we refer to as commutative Stone duality, between generalized Boolean algebras and…

We introduce a new invariant of tangles along with an algebraic framework in which to understand it. We claim that the invariant contains the classical Alexander polynomial of knots and its multivariable extension to links. We argue that of…

First and second fundamental theorems are given for polynomial invariants of a class of pseudo-reflection groups (including the Weyl groups of type $B_n$), under the assumption that the order of the group is invertible in the base field.…

We construct an Alexander type invariant for oriented doodles from a deformation of the Tits representation of the twin group and from the Chebyshev polynomials of second kind. Similar to the Alexander polynomial, our invariant vanishes on…

Invariants allow to classify images up to the action of a group of transformations. In this paper we introduce notions of the algebras of simultaneous polynomial and rational 2D moment invariants and prove that they are isomorphic to the…
