In this paper we introduce the notion of an idempotent system. This linear algebraic object is motivated by the structure of an association scheme. We focus on a family of idempotent systems, said to be symmetric. A symmetric idempotent…

Let $kG$ be the group algebra of a finite group scheme defined over a field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Associated to any closed subset $V$ of the projectivized prime ideal spectrum $\operatorname{Proj} \operatorname{H}^*(G,k)$ is a thick…

Motivated by the analysis and geometry of metric-measure structures in infinite dimensions, we study the category of extended metric-topological spaces, along with many of its distinguished subcategories (such as the one of compact spaces).…

In this paper we use 3-manifold techniques to illuminate the structure of the category of tangles. In particular, we show that every idempotent morphism $A$ in such a category naturally splits as $A=B\circ C$ such that $C\circ B$ is an…

Idempotent elements play a fundamental role in ring theory, as they encode significant information about the underlying algebraic structure. In this paper, we study idempotent matrices from two perspectives. First, we analyze the partially…

A set-theoretical solution of the pentagon equation on a non-empty set $X$ is a function $s:X\times X\to X\times X$ satisfying the relation $s_{23}\, s_{13}\, s_{12}=s_{12}\, s_{23}$, with $s_{12}=s\times \,id_X$, $s_{23}=id_X \times \, s$…

Every small monoidal category with universal finite joins of central idempotents is monoidally equivalent to the category of global sections of a sheaf of local monoidal categories on a topological space. Every small stiff monoidal category…

Let $X$ be a monoid scheme. We will show that the stalk at any point of $X$ defines a point of the topos $\Qc(X)$ of quasi-coherent sheaves over $X$. As it turns out, every topos point of $\Qc(X)$ is of this form if $X$ satisfies some…

Irreducible decompositions of monomial ideals in polynomial rings over a field are well-understood. In this paper, we investigate decompositions in the set of monomial ideals in the semigroup ring A[\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}^d] where A is an…

We classify and enumerate the idempotents in several planar diagram monoids: namely, the Motzkin, Jones (a.k.a. Temperley-Lieb) and Kauffman monoids. The classification is in terms of certain vertex- and edge-coloured graphs associated to…
