We observe that the nonstandard finite cardinality of a definable set in a strongly minimal pseudofinite structure D is a polynomial over the integers in the nonstandard finite cardinality of D. We conclude that D is unimodular, hence also…

For a groupoid $S$ with elements $a$ and $b$, if $ba = a$, then $b$ is a left identity of $a$ and $a$ is a right zero of $b$. We define the left identity set of $a$ to be the set of all left identities of $a$ in $S$, and similarly for the…

Every semigroup which is a finite disjoint union of copies of the free monogenic semigroup (natural numbers under addition) is finitely presented and residually finite.

We study the Ap\'ery set of good subsemigoups of $\mathbb N^2$, a class of semigroups containing the value semigroups of curve singularities with two branches. Even if this set in infinite, we show that, for the Ap\'ery set of such…

Furstenberg, using tools from topological dynamics, defined the notion of a central subset of positive integers, and proved a powerful combinatorial theorem about such sets. Using the algebraic structure of the Stone-\v{C}ech…

There are many examples of `binary' partial groups in the literature: sets equipped an identity and a partially-defined binary operation, such that each element admits an inverse. We show that many of these may be regarded as partial groups…

This is an expository work presenting in detail the proof of the structure theorem for divisible abelian groups. A divisible abelian group is an abelian group that satisfies nD=D for all natural n. The theorem states that any divisible…

A relaxation of the notion of invariant set, known as $k$-quasi-invariant set, has appeared several times in the literature in relation to group dynamics. The results obtained in this context depend on the fact that the dynamic is generated…

First of all, we recall the well known notion of semidirect product both for classical algebraic structures (like groups and rings) and for more recent ones (digroups, left skew braces, heaps, trusses). Then we analyse the concept of…

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…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a real line arrangement and $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{A})$ the module of $\mathcal{A}$--derivations. First, we give a dynamical interpretation of $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{A})$ as the set of polynomial vector fields which…

We describe the $C^*$-algebra of an $E$-unitary or strongly 0-$E$-unitary inverse semigroup as the partial crossed product of a commutative $C^*$-algebra by the maximal group image of the inverse semigroup. We give a similar result for the…

We extend the usual notion of fully commutative elements from the Coxeter groups to the complex reflection groups. Then we decompose the sets of fully commutative elements into natural subsets according to their combinatorial properties,…

We formulate an alternative approach to describing Ehresmann semigroups by means of left and right \'etale actions of a meet semilattice on a category. We also characterize the Ehresmann semigroups that arise as the set of all subsets of a…

We characterize the fixed sets of automorphisms of an arbitrary countable, arithmetically saturated structure.

The notions of disjointness and discrete elements play a prominent role in the classical theory of vector lattices. There are at least three different generalizations of the notion of disjointness to a larger class of partially ordered…

Let (G, *) be a semigroup, D subset of G, and n >= 2 be an integer. We say that (D, *) is an n-closed subset of G if a_1* ... *a_n in D for every a_1, ..., a_n in D. Hence every closed set is a 2-closed set. The concept of n-closed sets…

A generalization of G-sets, called partial G-sets, are the sets that admit an action of partial maps on their subsets. Partial actions are a powerful tool to generalize many results of group actions. These generalizations are obtained by…

Small cancellation groups form an interesting class with many desirable properties. It is a well-known fact that small cancellation groups are generic; however, all previously known results of their genericity are asymptotic and provide no…

In this paper, we classify all finite groups $G$ which have the following property: for all subsets $A \subseteq G$, we have $|AA^{-1}| = |A^{-1}A|$. This question is motivated by the problem in additive combinatorics of More Sums Than…
