We present a representation for permutation groups as the automorphism group of an ordered set $U$ such that the automorphism group's action on a subset $T\subseteq U$ is the permutation group itself. For many imprimitive permutation…

We develop the representation theory of a finite semigroup over an arbitrary commutative semiring with unit, in particular classifying the irreducible and minimal representations. The results for an arbitrary semiring are as good as the…

Let $\psi : G\to GL(V)$ and $\varphi :G \to GL (W)$ be representations of finite group $G$. A linear map $T: V\to W$ is called a morphism from $\psi$ to $\varphi$ if it satisfys $T\psi_g= \varphi_g T$ for each $g\in G$ and let…
We consider a finite dimensional $\kk G$-module $V$ of a $p$-group $G$ over a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. We describe a generating set for the corresponding Hilbert Ideal. In case $G$ is cyclic this yields that the algebra $\kk[V]_G$…
For a root system R, a field K and a "choice of coefficients in K" we define a category of graded spaces with operators and study some of its properties. Then we assume that the coefficients are given by quantum binomials. We use basic…

A commutative ring R has finite rank r, if each ideal of R is generated at most by r elements. A commutative ring R has the r-generator property, if each finitely generated ideal of R can be generated by r elements. Such rings are closely…
