Let $G$ be a finite group having a factorisation $G=AB$ into subgroups $A$ and $B$ with $B$ cyclic and $A\cap B=1,$ and let $b$ be a generator of $B$. The associated skew-morphism is the bijective mapping $f:A \to A$ well defined by the…
$\DeclareMathOperator{\Aut}{Aut}$Let $p, q$ be distinct primes, with $p > 2$. We classify the Hopf-Galois structures on Galois extensions of degree $p^{2} q$, such that the Sylow $p$-subgroups of the Galois group are cyclic. This we do,…
In this paper we determine all the Hopf q-brace structures on rank one pointed Hopf algebras and compute the socle of each one of them. We also identify which among them are Hopf skew-braces. Then we determine when two Hopf q-brace…
We study simplicity of Lie skew braces from both global and infinitesimal perspectives. After reviewing the correspondence between connected Lie skew braces, simply transitive affine actions, and post-Lie algebras, we investigate ideals and…
In this article we classify the left braces of order $p^2q$ where $p,q$ are primes fulfilling $q > p+1$. This classification includes a proof of three conjectures of Guarnieri and Vendramin (\cite[Conjectures 6.2-6.4]{Vendramin_skew})…
We determine the Hopf Galois structures on a Galois field extension of degree twice an odd prime square and classify the corresponding left braces. Besides we determine the separable field extensions of degree twice an odd prime square…
Hopf braces have been introduced as a Hopf-theoretic generalization of skew braces. Under the assumption of cocommutativity, these algebraic structures are equivalent to matched pairs of actions on Hopf algebras, that can be used to produce…
We investigate two sub-classes of skew bracoids, the first consists of those we term almost a brace, meaning the multiplicative group decomposes as a certain semi-direct product, and then those that are almost classical, which additionally…
Let $p, q$ be distinct primes, with $p > 2$. In a previous paper we classified the Hopf-Galois structures on Galois extensions of degree $p^{2} q$, when the Sylow $p$-subgroups of the Galois group are cyclic. This is equivalent to…
We improve Algorithm 5.1 of [Math. Comp. {\bf 86} (2017), 2519-2534] for computing all non-isomorphic skew left braces, and enumerate left braces and skew left braces of orders up to 868 with some exceptions. Using the enumerated data, we…
Let $p>q$ be odd primes. We classify Bol loops and Bruck loops of order $pq$ up to isotopism. When $q$ does not divide $p^2-1$, the only Bol loop (and hence the only Bruck loop) of order $pq$ is the cyclic group of order $pq$. When $q$…
We prove a structure theorem for finite perfect two-sided skew braces. The main tool is a central product theory for skew braces, developed here in both external and internal form; we show that these two constructions are equivalent. Our…
By extending some classical results known for groups and skew braces, we define and investigate central series of cocommutative Hopf braces. Both left and right central series are defined using a $\star$-product that measures the difference…
Let $G$ and $N$ be two finite groups of the same order. It is well-known that the existences of the following are equivalent: (a) a Hopf-Galois structure of type $N$ on any Galois $G$-extension; (b) a skew brace with additive group $N$ and…
Skew braces are one of the main algebraic tools controlling the structure of a non-degenerate bijective set-theoretic solution of the Yang-Baxter equation. The aim of this paper is to study model-theoretically tame skew braces, with…
A classification up to isomorphism of all left braces of order $p^3$, where $p$ is any prime number, is given. To this end, we first classify all the left braces of order $p$ and $p^2$, and then we construct explicitly the hypothesis…
We introduce two common divisor graphs associated with a finite skew brace, based on its $\lambda$- and $\theta$-orbits. We prove that the number of connected components is at most two and the diameter of a connected component is at most…
We show how to construct all the extensions of left braces by ideals with trivial structure. This is useful to find new examples of left braces. But, to do so, we must know the basic blocks for extensions: the left braces with no ideals…
We study 2-reductive non-involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. We give a combinatorial construction of any such solution of any (even infinite) size. We also prove that solutions associated to a skew…
Isabel Martin-Lyons and Paul J.Truman generalized the definition of a skew brace to give a new algebraic object, which they termed a skew bracoid. Their construction involves two groups interacting in a manner analogous to the compatibility…
