Let $X$ be a nonempty set and $\mathcal{P}=\{X_i\colon i\in I\}$ be a partition of $X$. Denote by $T(X, \mathcal{P})$ the semigroup of all transformations of $X$ that preserve $\mathcal{P}$. In this paper, we study the semigroup…
A representation theorem is proved for De Morgan monoids that are (i) semilinear, i.e., subdirect products of totally ordered algebras, and (ii) negatively generated, i.e., generated by lower bounds of the neutral element. Using this…
Consider the following generalization of the bicyclic monoid. Let $\kappa$ be any infinite cardinal and let $\mathcal{IP\!F}\left(\sigma{\mathbb{N}^\kappa}\right)$ be the semigroup of all order isomorphisms between principal filters of the…
This is part of an ongoing project to find a general algebraic framework for semiring theory. The structure theory of semirings is quite challenging, largely because of the lack of negation, and such basic properties such as unique…
In this paper we describe the Greens relations on the semigroup of bi-ideals of ordered full transformation semigroup in terms of Greens relations of ordered full transformation semigroup on a set.
In the paper we study inverse semigroups $\mathscr{B}(G)$, $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$, $\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G)$ and $\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G)$ which are generated by partial monotone injective translations of a positive cone of a linearly ordered…
Let ${\cal I}_n$ be the symmetric inverse semigroup on $X_n = \{1, 2,..., n\}$ and let ${\cal DP}_n$ and ${\cal ODP}_n$ be its subsemigroups of partial isometries and of order-preserving partial isometries of $X_n$, respectively. In this…
Semifields are semirings in which every nonzero element has a multiplicative inverse. A rough classification uses the characteristic of the semifield, that is the isomorphism type of the semifield generated by the two neutral elements. For…
This work characterizes the general form of a bijective linear map $\Psi:\mathscr{M}_n(\mathbb{C}) \to \mathscr{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$ such that $[\Psi(A_1),~\Psi(A_2)]=D_2$ whenever $[A_1,~A_2]=D_1$ where $D_1~\text{and}~D_2$ are fixed…
Two (real or complex) $m\times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$ are said to be parallel (resp. triangle equality attaining, or TEA in short) with respect to the spectral norm $\|\cdot\|$ if $\|A+ \mu B\| = \|A\| + \|B\|$ for some scalar $\mu$ with…
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…
We characterize conservative median algebras and semilattices by means of forbidden substructures and by providing their representation as chains. Moreover, using a dual equivalence between median algebras and certain topological…
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…
In this paper we determine all the bijective linear maps on the space of bounded observables which preserve a fixed moment or the variance. Nonlinear versions of the corresponding results are also presented.
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 the linearity and injectivity of two maps $\phi_1$ and $\phi_2$ on certain subsets of $M_n$ that satisfy $\operatorname{tr}(\phi_1(A)\phi_2(B))=\operatorname{tr}(AB)$. We apply it to characterize maps $\phi_i:\mathcal{S}\to…
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…
Let $k$ be an arbitrary field and $d$ a positive integer. For each degenerate symmetric or antisymmetric bilinear form $M$ on $k^{d}$ we determine the structure of the Lie algebra of matrices that preserve $M$, and of the Lie algebra of…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a semigroup identity to hold in the monoid of $n\times n$ upper triangular tropical matrices, in terms of equivalence of certain tropical polynomials. This leads to an algorithm for…
Let ${\bf M}_n(\mathbb{F})$ be the algebra of $n\times n$ matrices over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. We consider linear maps $\Phi: {\bf M}_n(\mathbb{F}) \rightarrow {\bf M}_r(\mathbb{F})$ preserving matrices annihilated by a fixed…
