The notion of almost symmetric numerical semigroup was given by V. Barucci and R. Fr\"oberg. We characterize almost symmetric numerical semigroups by symmetry of pseudo-Frobenius numbers. We give a criterion for $H^*$ (the dual of $M$) to…
For an arbitrary rational polyhedron we consider its decompositions into Minkowski summands and, dual to this, the free extensions of the associated pair of semigroups. Being free for the pair of semigroups is equivalent to flatness for the…
Delorme suggested that the set of all complete intersection numerical semigroups can be computed recursively. We have implemented this algorithm, and particularized it to several subfamilies of this class of numerical semigroups: free and…
Let N be a topologically finite, orientable 3-manifold with ideal triangulation. We show that if there is a solution to the hyperbolic gluing equations, then all edges in the triangulation are essential. This result is extended to a…
We give an explicit description of the free objects in the quasivariety of adequate semigroups, as sets of labelled directed trees under a natural combinatorial multiplication. The morphisms of the free adequate semigroup onto the free…
We develop a duality for operations on nested pairs of modules that generalizes the duality between absolute interior operations and residual closure operations from [ER21], extending our previous results to the expanded context. We apply…
A semigroup $S$ is said to be right pseudo-finite if the universal right congruence can be generated by a finite set $U\subseteq S\times S$, and there is a bound on the length of derivations for an arbitrary pair $(s,t)\in S\times S$ as a…
Wilf Conjecture on numerical semigroups is an inequality connecting the Frobenius number, embedding dimension and the genus of the semigroup. The conjecture is still open in general. We prove that the Wilf inequality is preserved under…
We establish lower estimates for singular value gaps of free products of $1$-divergent semigroups $\Gamma_1,\Gamma_2\subset \mathsf{GL}_d(\mathbb{K})$ which are in ping-pong position. As an application, we prove that if $\Gamma_1$ and…
We study the freeness problem for matrix semigroups. We show that the freeness problem is decidable for upper-triangular $2\times 2$ matrices with rational entries when the products are restricted to certain bounded languages.
We construct spherical subgroups in infinite-dimensional classical groups $G$ (usually they are not symmetric and their finite-dimensional analogs are not spherical). We present a structure of a semigroup on double cosets $L\setminus G/L$…
Let $\Gamma=\langle \alpha, \beta \rangle$ be a numerical semigroup. In this article we consider the dual $\Delta^*$ of a $\Gamma$-semimodule $\Delta$; in particular we deduce a formula that expresses the minimal set of generators of…
Here we characterize regular and completely regular ordered semigroups by their minimal bi-ideals. A minimal bi-ideal is expressed as a product of a minimal right ideal and a minimal left ideal. Furthermore, we show that every bi-ideal in a…
In our articles of recent years, the technique of gluing two subharmonic functions turned out to be very useful in studying the distribution of the roots or masses of holomorphic or subharmonic functions, respectively. Here we develop and…
In this paper, we prove the rationality of the gluing relation of edge replacement systems, which were introduced for studying rearrangement groups of fractals. More precisely, we describe an algorithmic procedure for building a finite…
A finitely presented 1-ended group $G$ has {\it semistable fundamental group at infinity} if $G$ acts geometrically on a simply connected and locally compact ANR $Y$ having the property that any two proper rays in $Y$ are properly…
We generalize the idea of a Schur ring of a group to the category of semigroups. Fundamental results of Schur rings over groups are shown to be true for Schur rings over semigroups. Examples where Schur rings differ between the two…
We give results on when a finitely generated group has only indiscrete embeddings in SL(2,C), with particular reference to 3-manifold groups. For instance if we glue two copies of the figure 8 knot along its torus boundary then the…
Even though the disk embedding theorem is not available in dimension 4 for free fundamental groups, some surgery problems may be shown to have topological solutions. We prove that surgery problems may be solved if one considers closed…
A ring $R$ with center $C$ is said to be\textit{centrally essential} if the module $R_C$ is an essential extension of the module $C_C$. We describe centrally essential exterior algebras of finitely generated free modules over not necessary…
