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 exhibit a faithful representation of the plactic monoid of every finite rank as a monoid of upper triangular matrices over the tropical semiring. This answers a question first posed by Izhakian and subsequently studied by several…

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 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…

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…
