We introduce a general framework, based on \'etale topological categories, for studying discrete restriction semigroups and their algebras. Generalizing Paterson's universal groupoid of an inverse semigroup, we define the universal category…
We apply, in the context of semigroups, the main theorem from~\cite{higjac} that an elementary class $\mathcal{C}$ of algebras which is closed under the taking of direct products and homomorphic images is defined by systems of equations. We…
Let $G$ be a semisimple simply-connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We prove that the affine Hecke category associated to the loop group of $G$ is equivalent to the colimit, evaluated in the…
The adjoint action of a finite group of Lie type on its Lie algebra is studied. A simple formula is conjectured for the number of split semisimple orbits of a given genus. This conjecture is proved for type A, and partial results are…
This paper provides a complete characterization of quasicontractive groups and analytic $C_0$-semigroups on Hardy and Dirichlet space on the unit disc with a prescribed generator of the form $Af=Gf'$. In the analytic case we also give a…
Given two structures $\mathcal{M}$ and $\mathcal{N}$ on the same domain, we say that $\mathcal{N}$ is a reduct of $\mathcal{M}$ if all $\emptyset$-definable relations of $\mathcal{N}$ are $\emptyset$-definable in $\mathcal{M}$. In this…
Working over an arbitrary field, we define compact semisimple 2-categories, and show that every compact semisimple 2-category is equivalent to the 2-category of separable module 1-categories over a finite semisimple tensor 1-category. Then,…
We give an efficient algorithm for the enumeration up to isomorphism of the inverse semigroups of order n, and we count the number S(n) of inverse semigroups of order n<=15. This improves considerably on the previous highest-known value…
An involution on a semigroup S (or any algebra with an underlying associative binary operation) is a function f:S->S that satisfies f(xy)=f(y)f(x) and f(f(x))=x for all x,y in S. The set I(S) of all such involutions on S generates a…
We improve on earlier results on the closure under free products of the class of automaton semigroups. We consider partial automata and show that the free product of two self-similar semigroups (or automaton semigroups) is self-similar (an…
Let $S$ be a semigroup (written multiplicatively). Endowed with the operation of setwise multiplication induced by $S$ on its parts, the non-empty subsets of $S$ form themselves a semigroup, denoted by $\mathcal P(S)$. Accordingly, we say…
In this paper we study the action of semigroups with nonempty interior of noncompact connected semisimple Lie groups, with finite center, on their maximal compact connected subgroups. As main results we describe the set of transitivity of a…
Value semigroups of non irreducible singular algebraic curves and their fractional ideals are submonoids of $\mathbb Z^n$ that are closed under infimums, have a conductor and fulfill a special compatibility property on their elements.…
The aim of this article is to study the ideal class monoid $\mathcal{C}\ell(S)$ of a numerical semigroup $S$ introduced by V. Barucci and F. Khouja. We prove new bounds on the cardinality of $\mathcal{C}\ell(S)$. We observe that…
In this paper the concept of local embeddability into finite structures (being LEF) for the class of semigroups is expanded with investigations of non-LEF structures, a closely related generalising property of local wrapping of finite…
We introduce the notion of pattern for numerical semigroups, which allows us to generalize the definition of Arf numerical semigroups. In this way infinitely many other classes of numerical semigroups are defined giving a classification of…
Profinite semigroups are a generalization of finite semigroups that come about naturally when one is interested in considering free structures with respect to classes of finite semigroups. They also appear naturally through dualization of…
The aim of this paper is to investigate whether the class of automaton semigroups is closed under certain semigroup constructions. We prove that the free product of two automaton semigroups that contain left identities is again an automaton…
Ultrahomogeneity and $\omega$-categoricity are two central concepts arising from model theory, with strong connections with oligomorphic permutation groups and quantifier elimination. In particular, both are conditions on the automorphism…
A quasi-automatic semigroup is defined by a finite set of generators, a rational (regular) set of representatives, such that if a is a generator or neutral, then the graph of right multiplication by a on the set of representatives is a…
