We prove two structure theorems for simple, locally finite dimensional Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$ which give sufficient conditions for the algebras to be of the form $[R^{(-)}, R^{(-)}] / (Z(R)…

A semigroup is \emph{regular} if it contains at least one idempotent in each $\mathcal{R}$-class and in each $\mathcal{L}$-class. A regular semigroup is \emph{inverse} if satisfies either of the following equivalent conditions: (i) there is…

A commutative residuated lattice A is said to be subidempotent if the lower bounds of its neutral element e are idempotent (in which case they naturally constitute a Brouwerian algebra A*). It is proved here that epimorphisms are surjective…

We give a characterisation of the idempotents of the partition monoid, and use this to enumerate the idempotents in the finite partition, Brauer and partial Brauer monoids, giving several formulae and recursions for the number of…

We study a class of matrices with noncommutative entries, which were first considered by Yu. I. Manin in 1988 in relation with quantum group theory. They are defined as "noncommutative endomorphisms" of a polynomial algebra. More explicitly…

Given an ample, Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$, and a unital commutative ring $R$, we consider the Steinberg algebra $A_R(\mathcal {G})$. First we prove a uniqueness theorem for this algebra and then, when $\mathcal{G}$ is graded by a…

Let $M$ be a positive homogeneously presented monoid ${\langle L \mid R\,\rangle}_{mo}$. If $M$ satisfies the cancellation condition and carries certain particular elements similar to the \emph{fundamental elements} in Artin monoids, then…

In this short note, we give a new sufficient condition for a linear map from a product of copies of a field to endomorphisms of a finite dimensional vector space over the same field to be an algebra homomorphism. We expect that this result…

We introduce a procedure based on computational algebraic geometry to determine whether two algebras are isomorphic. We then apply it to show that if $R$ is a commutative unital ring in which $2$ is not invertible, $G$ is a group of order…

We characterize the class of RFD $C^*$-algebras as those containing a dense subset of elements that attain their norm under a finite-dimensional representation. We show further that this subset is the whole space precisely when every…

Let $A$ and $C$ be two unital simple C*-algebas with tracial rank zero. Suppose that $C$ is amenable and satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem. Denote by ${{KK}}_e(C,A)^{++}$ the set of those $\kappa$ for which…

The following problem is addressed: A $3$-manifold $M$ is endowed with a triple $\Omega = \big(\Omega^1,\Omega^2,\Omega^3\big)$ of closed $2$-forms. One wants to construct a coframing $\omega = \big(\omega^1,\omega^2,\omega^3\big)$ of $M$…

We describe the primitive central idempotents of the group algebra over a number field of finite monomial groups. We give also a description of the Wedderburn decomposition of the group algebra over a number field for finite strongly…

Motivated by advances in categorical probability, we introduce non-commutative almost everywhere (a.e.) equivalence and disintegrations in the setting of C*-algebras. We show that C*-algebras (resp. W*-algebras) and a.e. equivalence classes…

We consider the category of C*-algebras equipped with actions of a locally compact quantum group. We show that this category admits a monoidal structure satisfying certain natural conditions if and only if the group is quasitriangular. The…

For a restricted Lie algebra $L$, the conditions under which its restricted enveloping algebra $u(L)$ is semiperfect are investigated. Moreover, it is proved that $u(L)$ is left (or right) perfect if and only if $L$ is finite-dimensional.

We introduce the notion of quadri-algebras. These are associative algebras for which the multiplication can be decomposed as the sum of four operations in a certain coherent manner. We present several examples of quadri-algebras: the…

The class of finitely presented algebras over a field $K$ with a set of generators $a_{1},..., a_{n}$ and defined by homogeneous relations of the form $a_{1}a_{2}... a_{n} =a_{\sigma (1)} a_{\sigma (2)} ... a_{\sigma (n)}$, where $\sigma$…

We devise a fairly general sufficient condition ensuring that the endomorphism monoid of a countably infinite ultrahomogeneous structure (i.e. a Fra\"{\i}ss\'{e} limit) embeds all countable semigroups. This approach provides us not only…

In [2], an exhaustive construction is achieved for the class of all 4-dimensional unital division algebras over finite fields of odd order, whose left nucleus is not minimal and whose automorphism group contains Klein's four-group. We…
