Given two semigroups $\langle A\rangle$ and $\langle B\rangle$ in ${\mathbb N}^n$, we wonder when they can be glued, i.e., when there exists a semigroup $\langle C\rangle$ in ${\mathbb N}^n$ such that the defining ideals of the…

In this paper, our aim is twofold: First, by using the technique of gluing semigroups, we give infinitely many families of a projective closure with the Cohen-Macaulay (Gorenstein) property. Also, we give an effective technique for…

We study strong indispensability of minimal free resolutions of semigroup rings. We focus on two operations, gluing and extending, used in literature to produce more examples with a special property from the existing ones. We give a naive…

Wilf Conjecture on numerical semigroups is an inequality connecting the Frobenius number, embedding dimension and the genus of the semigroup. The conjecture is still open in general. We prove that the Wilf inequality is preserved under…

We study affine semigroup rings as algebras over subsemigroup rings. From this relative viewpoint with respect to a given subsemigroup ring, the fibered sum of two affine semigroup algebras is constructed. Such a construction is compared to…

We construct a minimal free resolution of the semigroup ring k[C] in terms of minimal resolutions of k[A] and k[B] when <C> is a numerical semigroup obtained by gluing two numerical semigroups <A> and <B>. Using our explicit construction,…

We show that any two homogeneous affine semigroups can be glued by embedding them suitably in a higher dimensional space. As a consequence, we show that the sum of their homogeneous toric ideals is again a homogeneous toric ideal, and that…

This paper is focused on numerical semigroups and presents a simple construction, that we call dilatation, which, from a starting semigroup $S$, permits to get an infinite family of semigroups which share several properties with $S$. The…

Much study has been done on semigroups which are unions of groups. There are several ways in which a union of groups can be made into a semigroup in which each of the component groups arises as subgroups of the constructed semigroup. An…

Let $G=\Gamma(S)$ be a semigroup graph, i.e., a zero-divisor graph of a semigroup $S$ with zero element 0. For any adjacent vertices $x, y$ in $G$, denote $C(x,y)={z\in V(G) | N(z)={x,y}}$. Assume that in $G$ there exist two adjacent…

For any semiring, the concept of k-congruences is introduced, criteria for k-congruences are established, it is proved that there is an inclusion-preserving bijection between k-congruences and k-ideals, and an equivalent condition for the…

Let $S$ be a semigroup and $\mathbb F$ be a field. For an ideal $J$ of the semigroup algebra ${\mathbb F}[S]$ of $S$ over $\mathbb F$, let $\varrho _J$ denote the restriction (to $S$) of the congruence on ${\mathbb F}[S]$ defined by the…

We define the notion of a semicharacter of a group G : A function from the group to C*, whose restriction to any abelian subgroup is a homomorphism. We conjecture that for any finite group, the order of the group of semicharacters is…

Given a numerical semigroup ring $R=k[\![S]\!]$, an ideal $E$ of $S$ and an odd element $b \in S$, the numerical duplication $S \! \Join^b \! E$ is a numerical semigroup, whose associated ring $k[\![S \! \Join^b \! E]\!]$ shares many…

We consider several classes of complete intersection numerical semigroups, aris- ing from many different contexts like algebraic geometry, commutative algebra, coding theory and factorization theory. In particular, we determine all the…

Some varieties of groupoids and quasigroups generated by linear-bivariate polynomials $P(x,y)=a+bx+cy$ over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_n$ are studied. Necessary and sufficient conditions for such groupoids and quasigroups to obey identities which…

We give a polynomial gluing construction of two groups $G_X\subseteq GL(\ell,\mathbb F)$ and $G_Y\subseteq GL(m,\mathbb F)$ which results in a group $G\subseteq GL(\ell+m,\mathbb F)$ whose ring of invariants is isomorphic to the tensor…

Let $A=KQ_A/I_A$ and $B=KQ_B/I_B$ be two finite-dimensional bound quiver algebras, fix two vertices $a\in Q_A$ and $b\in Q_B$. We define an algebra $\Lambda=KQ_\Lambda/I_\Lambda$, which is called a simple gluing algebra of $A$ and $B$,…

In a group $G$, elements $a$ and $b$ are conjugate if there exists $g\in G$ such that $g^{-1} ag=b$. This conjugacy relation, which plays an important role in group theory, can be extended in a natural way to inverse semigroups: for…

Let $\mathcal C \subset \mathbb N^p$ be a finitely generated integer cone and $S\subset \mathcal C$ be an affine semigroup such that the real cones generated by $\mathcal C$ and by $S$ are equal. The semigroup $S$ is called $\mathcal…
