Let $G$ be a group and $G_0 \subseteq G$ be a subset. A sequence over $G_0$ means a finite sequence of terms from $G_0$, where the order of elements is disregarded and the repetition of elements is allowed. A product-one sequence is a…
Polynomials in a category have been studied as a generalization of the traditional notion in mathematics. Their construction has recently been extended to higher groupoids, as formalized in homotopy type theory, by Finster, Mimram, Lucas…
Knop constructed a tensor category associated to a finitely-powered regular category equipped with a degree function. In recent work with Harman, we constructed a tensor category associated to an oligomorphic group equipped with a measure.…
In this paper, we give precise mathematical form to the idea of a structure whose data and axioms are faithfully represented by a graphical calculus; some prominent examples are operads, polycategories, properads, and PROPs. Building on the…
In this work, we investigate the commutative monoids over which the axiomatizable class of regular S-acts is primitive normal and antiadditive. We prove that the primitive normality of an axiomatizable class of regular S-acts over the…
A monoid $S$ is right coherent if every finitely generated subact of every finitely presented right $S$-act is finitely presented. The corresponding notion for a ring $R$ states that every finitely generated submodule of every finitely…
In this paper we study a general class of conics starting from a quotient field. We give a group structure over these conics generalizing the construction of a group over the Pell hyperbola. Furthermore, we generalize the definition of…
Generalized operads, also called generalized multicategories and $T$-monoids, are defined as monads within a Kleisli bicategory. With or without emphasizing their monoidal nature, generalized operads have been considered by numerous authors…
This paper provides a geometric characterization of subclasses of the regular languages. We use finite model theory to characterize objects like strings and trees as relational structures. Logical statements meeting certain criteria over…
A fully invarient congruence relations on the free algebra on a given type induces a variety of the given type. In contrast, a congruence relation of the free algebra provides algebra of that type. This algebra is given by a so-called…
Regular groups and fields are common generalizations of minimal and quasi-minimal groups and fields, so the conjectures that minimal or quasi-minimal fields are algebraically closed have their common generalization to the conjecture that…
In this paper, we extend the classical theory of crossed $G$-sets and the crossed Burnside ring from a finite group $G$ to a finite groupoid $\mathcal{G}$. We introduce a natural monoidal structure on the category of crossed…
Recently several authors have proved results on Ehrhart series of free sums of rational polytopes. In this note we treat these results from an algebraic viewpoint. Instead of attacking combinatorial statements directly, we derive them from…
We study the family of rational sets of words, called completely reducible and which are such that the syntactic representation of their characteristic series is completely reducible. This family contains, by a result of Reutenauer, the…
I extend the definitions of schemes relative to monoids with zero - and therefore, toric geometry - to the world of formal schemes. This expands the usual framework to include, for instance, models for Mumford's degenerating Abelian…
An algebra is finitely related (or has finite degree) if its term functions are determined by some finite set of finitary relations. Nilpotent monoids built from words, via Rees quotients of free monoids, have been used to exhibit many…
Arithmetical congruence monoids, which arise in non-unique factorization theory, are multiplicative monoids $M_{a,b}$ consisting of all positive integers $n$ satsfying $n \equiv a \bmod b$. In this paper, we examine the asymptotic behavior…
We construct a finitary additive 2-category whose Grothendieck ring is isomorphic to the semigroup algebra of the monoid of order-decreasing and order-preserving transformations of a finite chain.
We first study commutative, pointed monoids providing basic definitions and results in a manner similar commutative ring theory. Included are results on chain conditions, primary decomposition as well as normalization for a special class of…
We study the question of whether, for a given class of finite graphs, one can define, for each graph of the class, a linear ordering in monadic second-order logic, possibly with the help of monadic parameters. We consider two variants of…
