Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a perfect field $k$. We study a certain normal reductive monoid $\overline M$ associated to a parabolic $k$-subgroup $P$ of $G$. The group of units of $\overline M$ is the Levi factor $M$ of $P$.…

Composing with the inclusion $\mathsf{Set}\to\mathsf{Cat} $, a graph $G$ internal to $\mathsf{Set} $ becomes a graph of discrete categories, the coinserter of which is the category freely generated by $G$. Introducing a suitable definition…

Let $G$ be a higher rank semisimple real Lie group or the product of at least two automorphism groups of regular trees. We prove all probability measure preserving actions of lattices in such groups have cost one, answering Gaboriau's fixed…

The dominant theme of this thesis is the construction of matrix representations of finite solvable groups using a suitable system of generators. For a finite solvable group $G$ of order $N = p_{1}p_{2}\dots p_{n}$, where $p_{i}$'s are…

We define Hopf monads on an arbitrary monoidal category, extending the definition given previously for monoidal categories with duals. A Hopf monad is a bimonad (or opmonoidal monad) whose fusion operators are invertible. This definition…

We adapt Goldie's concept of uniform dimensions from module theory over rings to $\Gamma$-monoids. A $\Gamma$-monoid $M$ is said to have uniform dimension $n$ if $n$ is the largest number of pairwise incomparable nonzero $\Gamma$-order…

A submonoid of the additive group $\mathbb{Q}$ is called a Puiseux monoid if it consists of nonnegative rationals. Given a monoid $M$, the set consisting of all nonempty finite subsets of $M$ is also a monoid under the Minkowski sum, and it…

Given groupoids $\mathscr G$ and $\mathscr H$ as well as an isomorphism $\Psi:\text{Sd}\,\mathscr G\cong\text{Sd}\,\mathscr H$ between subdivisions, we construct an isomorphism $P:\mathscr G\cong\mathscr H$. If $\Psi$ equals $\text{Sd} F$…

The general position problem in graphs seeks the largest set of vertices such that no three vertices lie on a common geodesic. Its counting refinement, the general position polynomial $\psi(G)$, asks for all such possible sets. In this…

We establish an induction isomorphism in the context of measurable bounded cohomology of discrete measured groupoid, which generalizes the Eckmann-Shapiro isomorphism in bounded cohomology of lattices due to Burger and Monod. In our wider…

We show that the membership problem in a finitely generated submonoid of a graph group (also called a right-angled Artin group or a free partially commutative group) is decidable if and only if the independence graph (commutation graph) is…

This research introduces a gcd-pair in $\mathbb{Z}_n$ which is an unordered pair $\{[a]_n, [b]_n\}$ of elements in $ \mathbb{Z}_n $ such that $0\leq a,b < n$ and the greatest common divisor $\gcd(a,b)$ divides $ n $. The properties of…

The compressed word problem for a finitely generated monoid M asks whether two given compressed words over the generators of M represent the same element of M. For string compression, straight-line programs, i.e., context-free grammars that…

A generalized numerical semigroup is a submonoid $S$ of $\mathbb{N}^d$ with finite complement in it. We characterize isomorphisms between these monoids in terms of permutation of coordinates. Considering the equivalence relation that…

In the present paper we define dual monoids for all Artin-Tits groups and we prove that for the type $\tilde A_n$ we get a (quasi)-Garside structure. Such a structure provides normal forms for the Artin-Tits group elements and allows to…

In recent years codes that are not Uniquely Decipherable (UD) are been studied partitioning them in classes that localize the ambiguities of the code. A natural question is how we can extend the notion of maximality to codes that are not…

We discuss a class of linear representations of the product poset of totally ordered sets $P= T_1 \times \cdots \times T_n$ which decompose into interval representations for block intervals. These can be characterised in terms of a…

A poset can be regarded as a category in which there is at most one morphism between objects, and such that at most one of Hom(c,c') and Hom(c',c) is nonempty for distinct objects c,c'. If we keep in place the latter axiom but allow for…

In the present paper, a submonoid of the well studied monoid $POI_n$ of all order-preserving partial injections on an $n$-element chain is studied. The set $IOF_n^{par}$ of all partial transformations in $POI_n$ which are fence-preserving…

Let $M$ be a topological monoid with homotopy group completion $\Omega BM$. Under a strong homotopy commutativity hypothesis on $M$, we show that $\pi_k (\Omega BM)$ is the quotient of the monoid of free homotopy classes $[S^k, M]$ by its…
