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…
In 1990, Comfort asked: is there, for every cardinal number $\alpha \leq 2^{\mathfrak{c}}$, a topological group $G$ such that $G^\gamma$ is countably compact for all cardinals $\gamma<\alpha$, but $G^\alpha$ is not countably compact? A…
Geometric semigroup theory is the systematic investigation of finitely-generated semigroups using the topology and geometry of their associated automata. In this article we show how a number of easily-defined expansions on finite semigroups…
A semigroup generated by two dimensional $C^{1+\alpha}$ contracting maps is considered. We call a such semigroup regular if the maximum $K$ of the conformal dilatations of generators, the maximum $l$ of the norms of the derivatives of…
An $(\alpha,\beta)$-manifold $(M,F)$ is a Finsler manifold with the Finsler metric $F$ being defined by a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and $1$-form $\beta$ on the manifold $M$. In this paper, we classify $n$-dimensional…
The left regular band structure on a hyperplane arrangement and its representation theory provide an important connection between semigroup theory and algebraic combinatorics. A finite semigroup embeds in a real hyperplane face monoid if…
We study a numerical semigroup ring as an algebra over another numerical semigroup ring. The complete intersection property of numerical semigroup algebras is investigated using factorizations of monomials into minimal ones. The goal is to…
The tropical semifield, i.e., the real numbers enhanced by the operations of addition and maximum, serves as a base of tropical mathematics. Addition is an abelian group operation, whereas the maximum defines an idempotent semigroup…
Let $\mathcal S$ be a semigroup of partial isometries acting on a complex, infinite-dimensional, separable Hilbert space. In this paper we seek criteria which will guarantee that the selfadjoint semigroup $\mathcal T$ generated by $\mathcal…
The Killing form \beta\ of a real (or complex) semisimple Lie group G is a left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian (or, respectively, holomorphic) Einstein metric. Let \Omega\ denote the multiple of its curvature operator, acting on symmetric…
With any non necessarily orientable unpunctured marked surface (S,M) we associate a commutative algebra, called quasi-cluster algebra, equipped with a distinguished set of generators, called quasi-cluster variables, in bijection with the…
A numerical semigroup is a submonoid of ${\mathbb Z}_{\ge 0}$ whose complement in ${\mathbb Z}_{\ge 0}$ is finite. For any set of positive integers $a,b,c$, the numerical semigroup $S(a,b,c)$ formed by the set of solutions of the inequality…
Let $\Delta$ be a cocompact lattice in $\mathsf{Sp}(m,1)$, $m \geq 2$, or $F_{4}^{(-20)}$. We exhibit examples of finitely generated subgroups of $\Delta \times \Delta$ with positive first Betti number all of whose discrete faithful…
An amalgam of inverse semigroups [S,T,U] is full if U contains all of the idempotents of S and T. We show that for a full amalgam [S,T,U], the C*-algebra of the inverse semigroup amaglam of S and T over U is the C*-algebraic amalgam of…

We study algebraic and topological properties of the convolution semigroups of probability measures on a topological groups and show that a compact Clifford topological semigroup $S$ embeds into the convolution semigroup $P(G)$ over some…
A proper subsemigroup of a semigroup is maximal if it is not contained in any other proper subsemigroup. A maximal subsemigroup of a finite semigroup has one of a small number of forms, as described in a paper of Graham, Graham, and Rhodes.…
It is proven that if $G$ is a finite group, then $G^\omega$ has $2^{\mathfrak c}$ dense nonmeasurable subgroups. Also, other examples of compact groups with dense nonmeasurable subgroups are presented.
