This paper establishes the existence of a finitely based finite semiring whose variety contains a continuum of subvarieties; such a variety is said to be of type \(2^{\aleph_0}\). Using the homomorphism theory of Kneser graphs, we prove…

Following the theory of principal $\infty$-bundles of Niklaus-Schreiber-Steveson, we develop a homotopy categorification of Hopf algebras, which model quantum groups. We study their higher-representation theory in the setting of…

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.

If a finitely generated monoid M is defined by a finite number of degree-preserving relations, then it has linear growth if and only if it can be decomposed into a finite disjoint union of subsets (which we call "sandwiches") of the form…

Let $G$ be a group with a finite subgroup $H$. We define the $L^2$-multiplicity of an irreducible representation of $H$ in the $L^2$-homology of a proper $G$-CW-complex. These invariants generalize the $L^2$-Betti numbers. Our main results…

A monoid presentation is called special if the right-hand side of each defining relation is equal to 1. We prove results which relate the two-sided homological finiteness properties of a monoid defined by a special presentation with those…

We introduce `braidability' as a new symmetry for (infinite) sequences of noncommutative random variables related to representations of the braid group $B_\infty$. It provides an extension of exchangeability which is tied to the symmetric…

Chevalley's theorem states that every smooth connected algebraic group over a perfect field is an extension of an abelian variety by a smooth connected affine group. That fails when the base field is not perfect. We define a pseudo-abelian…

Inspired by a width invariant on permutations defined by Guillemot and Marx, Bonnet, Kim, Thomass\'e, and Watrigant introduced the twin-width of graphs, which is a parameter describing its structural complexity. This invariant has been…

We study the semigroup $\overline{\boldsymbol{End}}(\boldsymbol{B}_{\omega}^{\mathscr{F}^2})$ of all endomorphisms of the bicyclic extension $\boldsymbol{B}_{\omega}^{\mathscr{F}^2}$ with the two-element family $\mathscr{F}^2$ of inductive…

We extend the work of Schwarz [1] to show that bound states of type IIB supersymmetric ($p, q$)-strings on a circle are associated with M2-branes irreducibly wrapped on $T^2$, or equivalently with nontrivial worldvolume fluxes. Beyond this…

For a subvariety of a smooth projective variety, consider the family of smooth hypersurfaces of sufficiently large degree containing it, and take the quotient of the middle cohomology of the hypersurfaces by the cohomology of the ambient…

For a finite group $G$, let $\sigma(G)$ be the number of subgroups of $G$ and $\sigma_\iota(G)$ the number of isomorphism types of subgroups of $G$. Let $L=L_r(p^e)$ denote a simple group of Lie type, rank $r$, over a field of order $p^e$…

A new scheme for proving pseudoidentities from a given set {\Sigma} of pseudoidentities, which is clearly sound, is also shown to be complete in many instances, such as when {\Sigma} defines a locally finite variety, a pseudovariety of…

In this paper, we investigate the connection between infinite permutation monoids and bimorphism monoids of first-order structures. Taking our lead from the study of automorphism groups of structures as infinite permutation groups and the…

With an arbitrary finite graph having a special form of 2-intervals (a diamond-shaped graph) we associate a subgroup of a symmetric group and a representation of this subgroup; state a series of problems on such groups and their…

A well-known result of A. Vaintrob characterizes Lie algebroids and their morphisms in terms of homological vector fields on supermanifolds. We give an interpretation of Lie bialgebroids and their morphisms in terms of odd symplectic…

Consider the algebraic dynamics on a torus T=G_m^n given by a matrix M in GL_n(Z). Assume that the characteristic polynomial of M is prime to all polynomials X^m-1. We show that any finite equivariant map from another algebraic dynamics…

We show that if $\mathbf H$ is a Fitting pseudovariety of groups and $\mathbf V$ is a local pseudovariety of monoids, then $\mathbf {LH}m \mathbf V$ is local if either $\mathbf V$ contains the six element Brandt monoid, or $\mathbf H$ is a…

In an additive factorial monoid each element can be represented as a linear combination of irreducible elements (atoms) with uniquely determined coefficients running over all natural numbers. In this paper we develop for a wide class of…
