A Puiseux monoid is a submonoid of $(\mathbb{Q},+)$ consisting of nonnegative rational numbers. Although the operation of addition is continuous with respect to the standard topology, the set of irreducibles of a Puiseux monoid is, in…

For a numerical monoid $\langle n_1, \dots, n_k \rangle$ minimally generated by $n_1, \dots, n_k \in \mathbb{N}$ with $n_1 < \cdots < n_k$, the longest and shortest factorization lengths of an element $x$, denoted as $L(x)$ and $\ell(x)$,…

We show that being finitely presentable and being finitely presentable with solvable word problem are quasi-isometry invariants of finitely generated left cancellative monoids. Our main tool is an elementary, but useful, geometric…

We give a short proof of the $L^{1}$ criterion for Beurling generalized integers to have a positive asymptotic density. We actually prove the existence of density under a weaker hypothesis. We also discuss related sufficient conditions for…

For a numerical semigroup $S := \langle n_1, \dots, n_k \rangle$ with minimal generators $n_1 < \cdots < n_k$, Barron, O'Neill, and Pelayo showed that $L(s+n_1) = L(s) + 1$ and $\ell(s+n_k) = \ell(s) + 1$ for all sufficiently large $s \in…

Let $M$ be a commutative cancellative monoid. The set $\Delta(M)$, which consists of all positive integers which are distances between consecutive factorization lengths of elements in $M$, is a widely studied object in the theory of…

In this paper, we study some of the factorization aspects of rational multicyclic monoids, that is, additive submonoids of the nonnegative rational numbers generated by multiple geometric sequences. In particular, we provide a complete…

Let $M$ be a cancellative commutative monoid and call a submonoid $S$ of $M$ an undermonoid if $\G(S)=\G(M)$ inside the Grothendieck group of $M$. Gotti and Li asked whether the finite factorization property is hereditary once it is known…

We study the following natural variation on the classical universality problem: given a language $L(M)$ represented by $M$ (e.g., a DFA/RE/NFA/PDA), does there exist an integer $\ell \geq 0$ such that $\Sigma^\ell \subseteq L(M)$? In the…

Let $H$ be a Krull monoid with class group $G$ such that every class contains a prime divisor. Then every nonunit $a \in H$ can be written as a finite product of irreducible elements. If $a=u\_1 \cdot \ldots \cdot u\_k$, with irreducibles…

Very narrow spatial bright solitons in (1+1)D and (2+1)D versions of cubic-quintic and full saturable models are studied, starting from the full system of the Maxwell's equations, rather than from the paraxial (NLS) approximation. For the…

The set $\mathcal{P}_{{\rm fin},0}(\mathbb{N}_0)$ of all finite subsets of $\mathbb{N}_0$ containing the zero element is a monoid with set addition as operation. If a set $A\in\mathcal{P}_{{\rm fin},0}(\mathbb{N}_0)$ can be written in the…

We show that for every finite nonempty set L of integers greater than or equal to 2 there are a numerical monoid H and a squarefree element a $\in$ H whose set of lengths L(a) is equal to L.

We prove a representation theorem for totally ordered idempotent monoids via a nested sum construction. Using this representation theorem we obtain a characterization of the subdirectly irreducible members of the variety of semilinear…

Commutative totally ordered monoids abound, number systems for example. When the monoid is not assumed commutative, one may be hard pressed to find an example. One suggested by Professor Orr Shalit are the countable ordinals with addition.…

In this work we investigate and characterize linear functionals $L:\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]\to\mathbb{R}$ with absolutely continuous representing measures $\mu$, i.e., $\mathrm{d}\mu(x) = g(x)\,\mathrm{d} x$ for some density $g$. We focus…

We initiate the study of the expansion $\mathcal{S}(M)$ of a monoid $M$ obtained via the semidirect product of $M$ acting naturally on the left of its power set (regarded as a semilattice under union). We term this the `subset expansion' of…

We present a uniform method of density elimination for several semilinear substructural logics. Especially, the density elimination for the involutive uninorm logic IUL is proved. Then the standard completeness of IUL follows as a lemma by…

For a monoid $M$, we denote by $\mathbb G(M)$ the group of units, $\mathbb E(M)$ the submonoid generated by the idempotents, and $\mathbb G_L(M)$ and $\mathbb G_R(M)$ the submonoids consisting of all left or right units. Writing $\mathcal…

We study finitely additive extensions of the asymptotic density to all the subsets of natural numbers. Such measures are called density measures. We consider a class of density measures constructed from free ultrafilters on $\mathbb{N}$ and…
