To a Boolean inverse monoid $S$ we associate a universal C*-algebra $C_B^*(S)$ and show that it is equal to Exel's tight C*-algebra of $S$. We then show that any invariant mean on $S$ (in the sense of Kudryavtseva, Lawson, Lenz and Resende)…
We introduce the Boolean algebra of d-semialgebraic (more generally, d-definable) sets and prove that its Stone space is naturally isomorphic to the Ellis enveloping semigroup of the Stone space of the Boolean algebra of semialgebraic…
The free algebra adjunction, between the category of algebras of a monad and the underlying category, induces a comonad on the category of algebras. The coalgebras of this comonad are the topic of study in this paper (following earlier…
This article develops several main results for a general theory of homological algebra in categories such as the category of sheaves of idempotent modules over a topos. In the analogy with the development of homological algebra for abelian…
We classify finitely generated modules over a class of algebras introduced in the authors' Ph.D thesis, called complete gentle algebras. These rings generalise the finite-dimensional gentle algebras introduced by Assem and Skowro\'{n}ski,…
A Boolean power S of a commutative ring R has the structure of a commutative R-algebra, and with respect to this structure, each element of S can be written uniquely as an R-linear combination of orthogonal idempotents so that the sum of…
In the classical theory of regular languages the concept of recognition by profinite monoids is an important tool. Beyond regularity, Boolean spaces with internal monoids (BiMs) were recently proposed as a generalization. On the other hand,…
Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. Under some restrictions on the size of $p$, the present paper establishes new results on the $G$-module structure of…
We introduce the concept of a homogeneity supermanifold, which is, roughly speaking, a supermanifold equipped with a privileged atlas whose coordinates carry prescribed (real) homogeneity degrees. This structure defines a sheaf of graded…
We propose a definition of magnitude for a length space with a Borel measure, which involves integrals over the set of geodesics. This quantity agrees with the magnitude of finite metric spaces, up to re-scaling the metric to ensure the…
We provide a new proof of ``most" cases of the polynomial Wiener-Wintner theorem for $\sigma$-finite spaces, using hard-analytic methods. Specifically, we prove that whenever $(X,\mu,T)$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure-preserving system, and…
We consider symmetric (under the action of products of finite symmetric groups) real algebraic varieties and semi-algebraic sets, as well as symmetric complex varieties in affine and projective spaces, defined by polynomials of degrees…
Motivated by recent work on weak distributive laws and their applications to coalgebraic semantics, we investigate the algebraic nature of semialgebras for a monad. These are algebras for the underlying functor of the monad subject to the…
In the second section, we introduce hemiring-valued pseudonormed rings and generalize Albert's result which states that every finite-dimensional algebra can be normed. Next, we introduce shrinkable hemirings and prove that dense division…
A subset $S$ of an integral domain $R$ is called a semidomain if the pairs $(S,+)$ and $(S, \cdot)$ are semigroups with identities; additionally, we say that $S$ is additively reduced provided that $S$ contains no additive inverses. Given…
In 1995 Grillet defined the concept of a stratified semigroup and a stratified semigroup with zero. The present authors extended that idea to include semigroups with a more general base and proved, amongst other things, that finite…
Sofic groups generalise both residually finite and amenable groups, and the concept is central to many important results and conjectures in measured group theory. We introduce a topological notion of a sofic boundary attached to a given…
We introduce Kleene-Varlet spaces as partially ordered sets equipped with a polarity satisfying certain additional conditions. By applying Kleene-Varlet spaces, we prove that each regular pseudocomplemented Kleene algebra is isomorphic to a…
The paper describes the algebraic structure of the graded algebra of differentially homogeneous polynomials of fixed finite order. We show that it is a finitely generated algebra, and we exhibit a minimal set of generators. Along the way,…
A topological group G is profinite if it is compact and totally disconnected. Equivalently, G is the inverse limit of a surjective system of finite groups carrying the discrete topology. We discuss how to represent a countably based…
