We introduce the depth parameters of a finite semigroup, which measure how hard it is to produce an element in the minimum ideal when we consider generating sets satisfying some minimality conditions. We estimate such parameters for some…

The $(-\beta)$-integers are natural generalisations of the $\beta$-integers, and thus of the integers, for negative real bases. When $\beta$ is the analogue of a Parry number, we describe the structure of the set of $(-\beta)$-integers by a…

The (-\beta)-integers are natural generalisations of the \beta-integers, and thus of the integers, for negative real bases. They can be described by infinite words which are fixed points of anti-morphisms. We show that they are not…

The first part of the paper develops the theory of $m$-shifted $\pi$-typical Witt vectors which can be viewed as subobjects of the usual $\pi$-typical Witt vectors. We show that the shifted Witt vectors admit a delta structure that satisfy…

The notion of normal category was introduced by KSS Nambooripad in connection with the study of the structure of regular semigroups using cross connections\cite{nambooripad1994theory}. It is an abstraction of the category of principal left…

A foundational result by C. Huneke and V. Trivedi provides a formula for the depth of an ideal in terms of height, computed over a finite set of prime ideals, for rings that are homomorphic images of regular rings. Building on a result by…

Let $a$ be a positive element in a unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$. We define a semi-norm on $\mathfrak{A}$, which generalizes the $a$-operator semi-norm and the $a$-numerical radius. We investigate basic properties of this semi-norm…

While teaching untyped $\lambda$-calculus to undergraduate students, we were wondering why $\alpha$-equivalence is not directly inductively defined. In this paper, we demonstrate that this is indeed feasible. Specifically, we provide a…

In this article, we study the existence and distribution of elements in finite field extensions with prescribed traces in several intermediate extensions that are also either normal or primitive normal. In the former case, we fully…

Let $F$ be a non--Archimedean local field of characteristic $\geq 0$, and let $G=GL(N,F)$, $N\geq 1$. An element $\gamma\in G$ is said to be quasi--regular if the centralizer of $\gamma$ in $M(N,F)$ is a product of field extensions of $F$.…

We consider two families of spaces, $X$ : the closed orientable Riemann surfaces of genus $g>0$ and the classifying spaces of right-angled Artin groups. In both cases we compare the depth of the fundamental group with the depth of an…

General $(\alpha, \beta)$ norms are an important class of Minkowski norms which contains the original $(\alpha, \beta)$ norms. In this note, by studying the behavior of the Darboux curves of the indicatrix, we give a characterization of…

A boolean term order is a total order on subsets of [n]={1,...,n} such that \emptyset < alpha for all nonempty alpha contained in [n], and alpha < beta implies alpha \cup gamma < beta \cup gamma for all gamma which do not intersect alpha or…

Unanticipated connections between different fragments of lambda calculus and different families of embedded graphs (a.k.a. "maps") motivate the problem of enumerating $\beta$-normal linear lambda terms. In this brief note, it is shown (by…

A subalgebra pair of semisimple complex algebras B < A with inclusion matrix M is depth two if MM^t M < nM for some positive integer n and all corresponding entries. If A and B are the group algebras of finite group-subgroup pair H < G, the…

Let $N \subset M$ be an irreducible inclusion of type type II$_1$ factors with finite Jones index. We shall introduce the notion of normality for intermediate subfactors of the inclusion $N \subset M$. If the depth of $N \subset M$ is 2,…

Let $h:\mathbb Z \to \mathbb Z_{\geq 0}$ be a nonzero function with $h(k)=0$ for $k\ll 0$. We define the Hilbert depth of $h$ by $\operatorname{hdepth}(h)=\max\{d\;:\; \sum_{j\leq k} (-1)^{k-j}\binom{d-j}{k-j}h(j)\geq 0\text{ for all }k\leq…

A type of fractional derivative, referred to as \alpha-derivative, is studied. The \alpha-derivative of fractional type obeys Leibnitz rule. Based on the definition of \alpha-derivative the operations of analysis and differential geometry…

We give a simple derivation of the formula for the number of normal elements in an extension of finite fields. Our proof is based on the fact that units in the Galois group ring of a field extension act simply transitively on normal…

We say that the polynomial sequence $(Q^{(\lambda)}_n)$ is a semiclassical Sobolev polynomial sequence when it is orthogonal with respect to the inner product $$ <p, r>_S=<{{\bf u}} ,{p\, r}> +\lambda <{{\bf u}}, {{\mathscr D}p \,{\mathscr…
