It is well known that the set of isomorphism classes of extensions of groups with abelian kernel is characterized by the second cohomology group. In this paper we generalise this characterization of extensions to a natural class of…
We give an overview of a number of Schreier-type extensions of monoids and discuss the relation between them. We begin by discussing the characterisations of split extensions of groups, extensions of groups with abelian kernel and finally…
In category theory circles it is well-known that the Schreier theory of group extensions can be understood in terms of the Grothendieck construction on indexed categories. However, it is seldom discussed how this relates to extensions of…
Prolongations of a group extension can be studied in a more general situation that we call group extensions of the co-type of a crossed module. Cohomology classification of such extensions is obtained by applying the obstruction theory of…
We relate the old and new cohomology monoids of an arbitrary monoid $M$ with coefficients in semimodules over $M$, introduced in the author's previous papers, to monoid and group extensions. More precisely, the old and new second cohomology…
In this monograph, we extend S. Schwede's exact sequence interpretation of the Gerstenhaber bracket in Hochschild cohomology to certain exact and monoidal categories. Therefore we establish an explicit description of an isomorphism by A.…
We show that any normal algebraic monoid is an extension of an abelian variety by a normal affine algebraic monoid. This extends (and builds on) Chevalley's structure theorem for algebraic groups.
Our paper deals with the investigation of extensions of commutative groups by loops so that the quasigroups that result in the multiplication between cosets of the kernel subgroup are T-quasigroups. We limit our study to extensions in which…
We observe that the process of associating an action to any Schreier extension of monoids with commutative and cancellative kernel is functorial. We show that this functor is a generalisation of the direction functor, used to give a…
Weakly Schreier split extensions are a reasonably large, yet well-understood class of monoid extensions, which generalise some aspects of split extensions of groups. This short note provides a way to define and study similar classes of…
The structure of monoidal categories in which every arrow is invertible is analyzed in this paper, where we develop a 3-dimensional Schreier-Grothendieck theory of non-abelian factor sets for their classification. In particular, we state…
In this paper we study equivariant crossed modules in its link with strict graded categorical groups. The resulting Schreier theory for equivariant group extensions of the type of an equivariant crossed module generalizes both the theory of…
Given a group $G$ and an integer $n\geq2$ we construct a new group $\tilde{{\cal K}}(G,n)$. Although this construction naturally occurs in the context of finding new invariants for complex algebraic surfaces, it is related to the theory of…
In a recent paper, Barot and Marsh presented an explicit construction of presentation of a finite Weyl group by any seed of corresponding cluster algebra, i.e. by any diagram mutation-equivalent to an orientation of a Dynkin diagram with…
Quantum symmetric algebras (or noncommutative polynomial rings) arise in many places in mathematics. In this article we find the multiplicative structure of their Hochschild cohomology when the coefficients are in an arbitrary bimodule…
If $\Gamma $ is a group, then braided $\Gamma $-crossed modules are classified by braided strict $\Gamma $-graded categorial groups. The Schreier theory obtained for $\Gamma $-module extensions of the type of an abelian $\Gamma $-crossed…
We define abelian extensions of algebras in congruence-modular varieties. The theory is sufficiently general that it includes, in a natural way, extensions of R-modules for a ring R. We also define a cohomology theory, which we call clone…
Building on Retakh's approach to Ext groups through categories of extensions, Schwede reobtained the well-known Gerstenhaber algebra structure on Ext groups over bimodules of associative algebras both from splicing extensions (leading to…
Properties of preordered monoids are investigated and important subclasses of such structures are studied. The corresponding full subcategories of the category of preordered monoids are functorially related between them as well as with the…
Twisted \'etale groupoid algebras have been studied recently in the algebraic setting by several authors in connection with an abstract theory of Cartan pairs of rings. In this paper, we show that extensions of ample groupoids correspond in…
