We provide geometric methods and algorithms to verify, construct and enumerate pairs of words (of specified length over a fixed $m$-letter alphabet) that form identities in the semigroup $\ut{n}$ of $n\times n$ upper triangular tropical…
We show that the submonoid of all nxn triangular tropical matrices satisfies a nontrivial semigroup identity and provide a generic construction for classes of such identities. The utilization of the Fibonacci number formula gives us an…
The main result of the paper proves that the monoid of all 2 x 2 tropical matrices satisfies a non-trivial semigroup identity, unlike the case of matrices over infinite fields. We exploit a strong connection between the monoid of all 2 x 2…
We prove that, for any $n$, the monoid of all $n \times n$ supertropical matrices extending tropical matrices satisfies nontrivial semigroup identities. These identities are carried over to walks on labeled-weighted digraphs with double…

We prove the conjecture that, for any $n$, the monoid of all $n \times n$ tropical matrices satisfies nontrivial semigroup identities. To this end, we prove that the factor rank of a large enough power of a tropical matrix does not exceed…
In 2010, Izhakian & Margolis proved that the bicyclic monoid admits a representation as a semigroup of upper triangular tropical matrices. We extend this result by classifying all one-relation monoids which admit such representations. We…
We study semigroup varieties generated by full and upper triangular tropical matrix semigroups and the plactic monoid of rank 4. We prove that the upper triangular tropical matrix semigroup $UT_n(\mathbb{T})$ generates a different semigroup…
We construct a nontrivial identity which holds in the semigroup of tropical 3-by-3 matrices.
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…
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 give a combinatorial characterization of the identities holding in the semiring of all upper triangular Boolean $n\times n$-matrices and apply the characterization to computational complexity of identity checking, finite axiomatizability…
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 $(yx) \rightarrow (x_n \dots x_2…
We introduce a faithful tropical linear representation of the Chinese monoid, and thus prove that this monoid admits all the semigroup identities satisfied by tropical triangular matrices.
We prove identities on compound matrices in extended tropical semirings. Such identities include analogues to properties of conjugate matrices, powers of matrices and~$\adj(A)\det(A)^{ -1}$, all of which have implications on the eigenvalues…
We give an alternative description of the grammic monoid in terms of weakly increasing subsequences. Specifically, we show that words $u,v$ in the generators $\{1,\ldots, n\}$ determine the same element of the grammic monoid of rank $n$ if…

Let $(\mathsf{baxt}_n,~^\sharp)$ be the Baxter monoid of finite rank $n$ with Sch\"{u}tzenberger's involution $^{\sharp}$. In this paper, it is shown that $(\mathsf{baxt}_n,~^\sharp)$ admits a faithful representation by an involution monoid…
We construct minimal and irredundant generating sets for a family of submonoids of the monoid of $n \times n$ upper triangular matrices over a commutative semiring. We show that the monoid of $n \times n$ matrices over the tropical…
We show that the Identity Problem is decidable in polynomial time for finitely generated sub-semigroups of the group $\mathsf{UT}(4, \mathbb{Z})$ of $4 \times 4$ unitriangular integer matrices. As a byproduct of our proof, we also show the…
