In this article we use semigroupoids to describe a notion of algebraic bundles, mostly motivated by Fell ($C^*$-algebraic) bundles, and the sectional algebras associated to them. As the main motivational example, Steinberg algebras may be…

Joyal's theory of combiantorial species provides a rich and elegant framework for enumerating combinatorial structures by translating structural information into algebraic functional equations. We present some classical and folklore results…

It is shown that a flat subgroup, $H$, of the totally disconnected, locally compact group $G$ decomposes into a finite number of subsemigroups on which the scale function is multiplicative. The image, $P$, of a multiplicative semigroup in…

We introduce and study the Hilbert space of $(L^2,\Gamma,\chi)$-likewise theta functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with respect to a given discrete subgroup $\Gamma$ of arbitrary rank and a character $\chi$ of $\Gamma$. A concrete description is…

The spectrum of an admissible subalgebra $\mathscr{A}(G)$ of $\mathscr{LUC}(G)$, the algebra of right uniformly continuous functions on a locally compact group $G$, constitutes a semigroup compactification $G^\mathscr{A}$ of $G$. In this…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $\mathcal A$ be the Banach algebra $B(X)$ of bounded (i.e. continuous) linear transformations (to be called operators) on $X$ to itself. Let $\mathcal E$ be the set of idempotents in $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal…

This paper considers discrete and continuous semigroups of (weighted) composition operators on the Fock space. For discrete semigroups consisting of powers of a single operator, the asymptotic behaviour of the semigroups is analysed. For…

It is known that partial spreads is a class of bent partitions. In \cite{AM2022Be,MP2021Be}, two classes of bent partitions whose forms are similar to partial spreads were presented. In \cite{AKM2022Ge}, more bent partitions $\Gamma_{1},…

This is the third in a series math.AG/0312190, math.AG/0503029, math.AG/0410268 on configurations in an abelian category A. Given a finite partially ordered set (I,<), an (I,<)-configuration (\sigma,\iota,\pi) is a finite collection of…

Nonunique factorization in cancellative commutative semigroups is often studied using combinatorial factorization invariants, which assign to each semigroup element a quantity determined by the factorization structure. For numerical…

Given an inverse semigroup $S$ endowed with a partial action on a topological space $X$, we construct a groupoid of germs $S\ltimes X$ in a manner similar to Exel's groupoid of germs, and similarly a partial action of $S$ on an algebra $A$…

This paper concerns the general problem of classifying the finite deterministic automata that admit a synchronizing (or reset) word. (For our purposes it is irrelevant if the automata has initial or final states.) Our departure point is the…

In this note, we extend earlier work by showing that if $X$ and $Y$ are delta-complexes (i.e. simplicial sets without degeneracy operators), a morphism $g:N(X)\to N(Y)$ of Steenrod coalgebras (normalized chain-complexes equipped with extra…

Let $X$ be a factorial complex affine variety of dimension $\ge 3$ with an algebraic action of the additive group $G_a$. Let $\pi : X \to Y$ be the algebraic quotient morphism where we assume $Y$ is an affine variety. When $\pi$ is…

We construct the independent particle representation for the Semistandard Young Tableaux (SsYT) of skew shape $\lambda/\mu.$ The partition function of this particle system gives the generating function of the SsYT of skew shape…

For operators $A$, it is sometimes possible to define $e^{At}$ as an operator in and of itself provided it meets certain regularity conditions. Like $e^{\lambda x}$ for ODEs, this operator is useful for solving PDEs involving the operator…

In this paper we derive an explicit expression for the normal zeta function of class two nilpotent groups whose associated Pfaffian hypersurface is smooth. In particular, we show how the local zeta function depends on counting mod p…

Let $\Delta$ be a numerical semigroup and let $d\ge 2$ be an integer. We study the fiber of the quotient map \(S\mapsto S/d\) over $\Delta$. We describe its elements as semigroups of the form $\langle X\rangle+d\Delta$, for suitable finite…

Let $\mathbb G = (G, +)$ be a group (either abelian or not). Given $X, Y \subseteq G$, we denote by $\langle Y \rangle$ the subsemigroup of $\mathbb G$ generated by $Y$, and we set $$\gamma(Y) := \sup_{y_0 \in Y} \inf_{y_0 \ne y \in Y} {\rm…
