In this article we overview those aspects of the theory of affine semigroups and their algebras that have been relevant for our own research, and pose several open problems. Answers to these problems would contribute substantially to the…
We study how certain invariants of numerical semigroups relate to the number of second kind gaps. Furthermore, given two fixed non-negative integers F and k, we provide an algorithm to compute all the numerical semigroups whose Frobenius…
The discrete LS algebra over a totally ordered set is the homogeneous coordinate ring of an irreducible projective (normal) toric variety. We prove that this algebra is the ring of invariants of a finite abelian group containing no…
It was proved that whenever $\mathbb{N}$ is partitioned into finitely many cells, one cell must contain arbitrary length arithmetic and geometric progression nicely intertwined, so that one cell must be rich in the sense of containing…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ denote the ring of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field of $q$ elements. Suppose the characteristic of $\mathbb{F}_q$ is not $2$ or $3$. In this paper, we prove an $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$-analogue of results…
A numerical semigroup is a sub-semigroup of the natural numbers that has a finite complement. The size of its complement is called the genus and the largest number in the complement is called its Frobenius number. We consider the set of…
Given a module M over a ring R which has a grading by a semigroup Q, we present a spectral sequence that computes the local cohomology of M at any Q-graded ideal I in terms of Ext modules. This method is used to obtain finiteness results…
We study self-adjoint semigroups of partial isometries on a Hilbert space. These semigroups coincide precisely with faithful representations of abstract inverse semigroups. Groups of unitary operators are specialized examples of…
On a (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold (M,g), some fields of endomorphisms i.e. sections of End(TM) may be parallel for g. They form an associative algebra A, which is also the commutant of the holonomy group of g. As any associative algebra, A…
We study the structure of the family of numerical semigroups with fixed multiplicity and Frobenius number. We give an algorithmic method to compute all the semigroups in this family. As an application we compute the set of all numerical…
In this article, we define and explore the weak normalization of an affine semigroup. In particular, for a fixed prime integer, we provide a geometric description of the weak normalization of an affine semigroup with respect to that prime,…
For a commutative semiring S, by an S-algebra we mean a commutative semiring A equipped with a homomorphism from S to A. We show that the subvariety of S-algebras determined by the identities 1+2x=1 and x^2=x is closed under non-empty…
If $H$ is a numerical semigroup (that is, a cofinite subset of the non-negative integers closed under addition), then the non-empty subsets of $H$ form a semigroup $\mathcal P(H)$ under the sumset operation induced by addition in $H$.…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $M_n(R)$ be the ring of $n \times n$ matrices with entries from $R$. For each $S \subseteq M_n(R)$, we consider its (generalized) null ideal $N(S)$, which is the set of all polynomials $f$ with coefficients…
Let $K<X> =K<X_1,...,X_n>$ be the free $K$-algebra on $X={X_1,...,X_n}$ over a field $K$, which is equipped with a weight $\mathbb{N}$-gradation (i.e., each $X_i$ is assigned a positive degree), and let ${\cal G}$ be a finite homogeneous…
Attached to a singular analytic curve germ in $d$-space is a numerical semigroup: a subset $S$ of the non-negative integers which is closed under addition and whose complement isfinite. Conversely, associated to any numerical semigroup $S$…
Many interesting questions in arithmetic dynamics revolve, in one way or another, around the (local and/or global) reducibility behavior of iterates of a polynomial. We show that for very general families of integer polynomials $f$ (and,…
It has been known for almost 200 years that some angles cannot be trisected by straightedge and compass alone. This paper studies the set of such angles as well as its complement $\mathcal{T}$, both regarded as subsets of the unit circle…
A numerical semigroup is called cyclotomic if its corresponding numerical semigroup polynomial $P_S(x)=(1-x)\sum_{s\in S}x^s$ is expressable as the product of cyclotomic polynomials. Ciolan, Garc\'ia-S\'anchez, and Moree conjectured that…
Let $D$ be an integrally closed domain with quotient field $K$. Let $A$ be a torsion-free $D$-algebra that is finitely generated as a $D$-module. For every $a$ in $A$ we consider its minimal polynomial $\mu_a(X)\in D[X]$, i.e. the monic…
