A variety is finitely universal if its lattice of subvarieties contains an isomorphic copy of every finite lattice. Examples of finitely universal varieties of semigroups have been available since the early 1970s, but it is unknown if there…
We study the equational theories and bases of meets and joins of several varieties of plactic-like monoids. Using those results, we construct sublattices of the lattice of varieties of monoids, generated by said varieties. We calculate the…
It is unknown so far, whether the lattice of all varieties of monoids satisfies some non-trivial identity. The objective of this note is to give the negative answer to this question. Namely, we prove that any finite lattice is a homomorphic…
We completely classify all standard elements in the lattice of all monoid varieties. In particular, we prove that an element of this lattice is standard if and only if it is neutral.
We completely determine all varieties of monoids on whose free objects all fully invariant congruences or all fully invariant congruences contained in the least semilattice congruence permute. Along the way, we find several new monoid…
Let M be a commutative monoid. We provide an explicit first-order formular that defines the variety generated by M in the lattice of commutative semigroup varieties.
Finite monoids that generate monoid varieties with uncountably many subvarieties seem rare, and surprisingly, no finite monoid is known to generate a monoid variety with countably infinitely many subvarieties. In the present article, it is…
The sets of all neutral, distributive and lower-modular elements of the lattice of semigroup varieties are finite, countably infinite and uncountably infinite, respectively. In 2018, we established that there are precisely three neutral…
A monoid is aperiodic if all its subgroups are trivial. We completely classify all varieties of aperiodic monoids whose subvariety lattice is distributive.
We completely classify all varieties of aperiodic monoids with commuting idempotents whose subvariety lattice is distributive.
We completely classify all varieties of aperiodic monoids with central idempotents whose subvariety lattice is distributive.
We completely classify all neutral or costandard elements in the lattice $\mathbb{MON}$ of all monoid varieties. Further, we prove that an arbitrary upper-modular element of $\mathbb{MON}$ except the variety of all monoids is either a…
We introduce and study blob and framed blob monoids. In particular, several realizations of these monoids are given. We compute the cardinality of the framed blob monoid and derive some combinatorial formulas involving this cardinality.
In the present paper we introduce a lattice-ordered partial monoid structure on a suitable set of multilayer networks. We first study a kind of mappings that preserve the partial order and describe the order structure. After that we define…
Some topics from recent progresses in lattice QCD are reviewed.
Zonotopes are a rich and fascinating family of polytopes, with connections to many areas of mathematics. In this article we provide a brief survey of classical and recent results related to lattice zonotopes. Our emphasis is on connections…
This is a survey of results in the enumeration of lattice paths.
We classify all varieties of aperiodic monoids with central idempotents whose subvariety lattice is finite or satisfies the descending chain condition or satisfies the ascending chain condition. It turns out that for varieties in this…
The set of all cancellable elements of the lattice of semigroup varieties has recently been shown to be countably infinite. But the description of all cancellable elements of the lattice $\mathbb{MON}$ of monoid varieties remains unknown.…
We give a finite axiomatization for the variety generated by relational, integral ordered monoids. As a corollary we get a finite axiomatization for the language interpretation as well.
