A monoid structure on families of representations of a quiver is introduced by taking extensions of representations in families, i.e. subvarieties of the varieties of representations. The study of this monoid leads to interesting…
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…
In this note, we consider the monoid $\mathcal{PIM}_{n}$ of all partial monotone transformations on a chain with $n$ elements whose domains and ranges are intervals and its submonoid $\mathcal{IM}_{n}$ constituted by the full…
We investigate complement-finite submonoids of the monoid of nonnegative integer points of a unipotent linear algebraic group $G$. These monoids are in general noncommutative but they specialize to the generalized numerical monoids of…
We curry the elementary arithmetic operations of addition and multiplication to give monotone injections on N, and describe & study the inverse monoids that arise from also considering their generalised inverses. This leads to well-known…
A numerical semigroup $M$ is a subset of the non-negative integers that is closed under addition. A factorization of $n \in M$ is an expression of $n$ as a sum of generators of $M$, and the Graver basis of $M$ is a collection $Gr(M_t)$ of…
We extend a few fundamental aspects of the classical theory of non-unique factorization, as presented in Geroldinger and Halter-Koch's 2006 monograph on the subject, to a non-commutative and non-cancellative setting, in the same spirit of…
It is well-known that every regular language admits a unique minimal deterministic acceptor. Establishing an analogous result for non-deterministic acceptors is significantly more difficult, but nonetheless of great practical importance. To…
We analyze the set of increasingly enumerable additive submonoids of R, for instance, the set of logarithms of the positive integers with respect to a given base. We call them $\omega$-monoids. The $\omega$-monoids for which consecutive…
We find the minimal dimension for a truncated polynomial algebra over an arbitrary field for which there exists a "non-thin" subalgebra. Moreover, we discuss examples of subalgebras, and count them in low dimensions.
We study arithmetic properties of factorizations of elements into products of generators, in monoids given with explicit presentations. After relating and comparing this perspective to the more usual approach of factoring into products of…
Let $\{a_1,\dots,a_p\}$ be the minimal generating set of a numerical monoid $S$. For any $s\in S$, its Delta set is defined by $\Delta(s)=\{l_{i}-l_{i-1}|i=2,\dots,k\}$ where $\{l_1<\dots<l_k\}$ is the set $\{\sum_{i=1}^px_i\,|\,…
Motivated by a problem in graph theory, this article introduces an algebra called the balanced algebra. This algebra is defined by generators and relations, and the main goal is to find a minimal set of relations for it.
This paper examines in a new way some known facts about numerical semigroups especially when the number of minimal generators (that is the embedding dimension) is at most three and at least two minimal generators are coprime. For such…
The aim of this paper is to develop a theory of finite transformation monoids and in particular to study primitive transformation monoids. We introduce the notion of orbitals and orbital digraphs for transformation monoids and prove a…
In this paper we consider endomorphisms of an undirected cycle graph from Semigroup Theory perspective. Our main aim is to present a process to determine sets of generators with minimal cardinality for the monoids $wEnd(C_n)$ and $End(C_n)$…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected graph. A vertex $w\in V$ distinguishes two elements (vertices or edges) $x,y\in E\cup V$ if $d_G(w,x)\ne d_G(w,y)$. A set $S$ of vertices in a connected graph $G$ is a mixed metric generator for $G$ if every two…
Given a numerical semigroup $S$ and a positive integer $d$, the fraction $\frac{S}{d}=\{ x \in \mathbb{N} \ | \ dx \in S\}$ is again a numerical semigroup. In this paper we determine a generating set for $\frac{S}{d}$ in terms of the…
A partitioned process theory, as defined by Coecke, Fritz, and Spekkens, is a symmetric monoidal category together with an all-object-including symmetric monoidal subcategory. We think of the morphisms of this category as processes, and the…
The purpose of this article is to give, for any commutative ring A, an explicit minimal set of generators for the ring of multisymmetric functions TS^d_A(A[x_1,...,x_r]) as an A-algebra. In characteristic zero, i.e. when A is an algebra…
