In this note, the correction to the proof of one theorem in some our previous paper [arXiv:1302.0589] will be given.

In this paper we introduce the new concepts of supersymmetric and self-symmetric gaps of a numerical semigroup with two generators. Those concepts are based on certain symmetries of the gaps of the semigroup with respect to their Wilf…

We introduce a generalization of the product expansion of a finite semigroup. As an application, we provide an alternative proof of the decidability of pointlike sets for pseudovarieties consisting of semigroups whose subgroups all belong…

We show that many important varieties and sets of varieties of semigroups may be defined by relatively simple and transparent first-order formulas in the lattice of all semigroup varieties.

We exhibit a 6-element semigroup that has no finite identity basis but nevertheless generates a variety whose finite membership problem admits a polynomial algorithm.

The set of all subsets of any inverse semigroup forms an involution semiring under set-theoretical union and element-wise multiplication and inversion. We find structural conditions on a finite inverse semigroup guaranteeing that neither…

We present a short elementary proof of the Gearhart-Pr\"uss theorem for bounded $C_0$-semigroups on Hilbert spaces.

Given a locally constant linear cocycle over a subshift of finite type, we show that the existence of a uniform gap between the i-th and (i+1)-th Lyapunov exponents for all invariant measures implies the existence of a dominated splitting…

In this paper we give sufficient conditions under which a subsemigroup of a topological group is a subgroup, adding to the results given in \cite{Kosh, can, axioms, forum, Hof, cc, locally} where conditions exist (such as locally…

We determine the maximal pseudovarieties of finite semigroups that satisfy an identity of the form $x_1 \dots x_n \approx \rho(x_1, \dots, x_n)$. Applying this classification, we further show that a pseudovariety of permutative semigroups…

We develop the representation theory of a finite semigroup over an arbitrary commutative semiring with unit, in particular classifying the irreducible and minimal representations. The results for an arbitrary semiring are as good as the…

The first author has recently shown that semisimple algebraic groups are classified up to motivic equivalence by the local versions of the classical Tits indexes over field extensions, known as Tits p-indexes. We provide in this article the…

We study the Finite Basis Problem for finite additively idempotent semirings whose multiplicative reducts are inverse semigroups. In particular, we show that each additively idempotent semiring whose multiplicative reduct is a nontrivial…

The finite basis property is often connected with the finite rank property, which it entails. Many examples have been produced of finite rank varieties which are not finitely based. In this note, we establish a result on nilpotent…

We prove that any quasigroup admissing complete or quasicomplete mapping has a prolongation to a quasigroup having one element more.

In the paper we characterize the class of finite solvable groups by two-variable identities in a way similar to the characterization of finite nilpotent groups by Engel identities. More precisely, a sequence of words $u_1,...,u_n,... $ is…

A new scheme for proving pseudoidentities from a given set {\Sigma} of pseudoidentities, which is clearly sound, is also shown to be complete in many instances, such as when {\Sigma} defines a locally finite variety, a pseudovariety of…

A recent article of J.P. Bell, K. Huang, W. Peng and T.J. Tucker establishes an analog of the Tits alternative for semigroups of endomorphisms of the projective line. The proof involves a ping-pong argument on arithmetic height functions.…

We study the semigroup identities satisfied by finite rank plactic monoids. We find a new set of semigroup identities of the plactic monoid of rank $n$ for $n \geq 4$, which are shorter than those previously known when $n \geq 6$. Using…

Denote by (R,.) the multiplicative semigroup of an associative algebra R over an infinite field, and let (R,*) represent R when viewed as a semigroup via the circle operation x*y=x+y+xy. In this paper we characterize the existence of an…
