For a skew left brace $(G, \cdot, \circ)$, the map $\lambda : (G, \circ) \to \mathrm{Aut} \;(G, \cdot),~~a \mapsto \lambda_a$, where $\lambda_a(b) = a^{-1} \cdot (a \circ b)$ for all $a, b \in G$, is a group homomorphism. Then $\lambda$ can…
Skew braces are intensively studied owing to their wide ranging connections and applications. We generalize the definition of a skew brace to give a new algebraic object, which we term a skew bracoid. Our construction involves two groups…
We study extensions and second cohomology of skew left braces via the natural semi-direct products associated with the skew left braces. Let $0 \to I \to E \to H \to 0$ be a skew brace extension and $\Lambda_H$ denote the natural…
Isabel Martin-Lyons and Paul J.Truman generalized the definition of a skew brace to give a new algebraic object, which they termed a skew bracoid. Their construction involves two groups interacting in a manner analogous to the compatibility…
We define a bi-skew brace to be a set $G$ with two group operations $\star$ and $\circ$ so that $(G, \circ, \star)$ is a skew brace with additive group $(G, \star)$ and also with additive group $(G, \circ)$. If $G$ is a skew brace, then $G$…
L. Childs has defined a skew brace $(G, \cdot, \circ)$ to be a bi-skew brace if $(G, \circ, \cdot)$ is also a skew brace, and has given applications of this concept to the equivalent theory of Hopf-Galois structures. The goal of this paper…
Let $RG$ be the group ring of a finite group $G$ over a commutative ring $R$ with $1$. An element $x$ in $RG$ is said to be skew-symmetric with respect to an involution $\sigma$ of $RG$ if $\sigma(x)=-x.$ A structure theorem for the…
Letourmy and Vendramin have recently introduced a concept of isoclinism for skew braces. We show that for a skew brace the properties of being bi-skew, $\lambda$-homomorphic, and inner are invariant under isoclinism.
This paper examines the connections between (relative) Rota--Baxter groups, skew left braces, and enlargements of these structures on naturally associated semi-direct products. Given a skew left brace, we define a new skew left brace,…
If $A=(A,\oplus,\odot)$ is a $\lambda$-homomorphic brace with $(A,\oplus)=\mathbb{Z}^2$, then the operations in this brace are given by formulas…
The main objective of this paper is to deepen the relationship between skew left braces and trifactorised groups that encodes the information about skew left braces, their structure, their quotients, and their homomorphisms.
We investigate structural and rigidity properties of \emph{Lie skew braces} (LSBs), objects essentially known in the literature as \emph{post--Lie groups}, obtained by endowing a manifold with two compatible group laws that share the same…
We develop a symmetric analog of brace algebras and discuss the relation of such algebras to $L_{\infty}$-algebras. We give an alternate proof that the category of symmetric brace algebras is isomorphic to the category of pre-Lie algebras.…
Totally symmetric sets are a recently introduced tool for studying homomorphisms between groups. In this paper, we give full classifications of totally symmetric sets in certain families of groups and bound their sizes in others. As a…
Given a skew left brace $\mathfrak{B}$, we introduce the notion of an "opposite" skew left brace $\mathfrak{B}'$, which is closely related to the concept of the opposite of a group, and provide several applications. Skew left braces are…
The aim of this article is to advance the knowledge on the theory of skew left braces. We introduce a subclass of skew left braces, which we denote by $\mathcal{I}_n$, $n \ge 1$, such that elements of the annihilator and lower central…
We introduce left and right series of left semi-braces. This allows to define left and right nilpotent left semi-braces. We study the structure of such semi-braces and generalize some results, known for skew left braces, to left…
We extend two constructions of Alan Koch, exhibiting methods to construct brace blocks, that is, families of group operations on a set $G$ such that any two of them induce a skew brace structure on $G$. We construct these operations by…
In this paper we extend to left skew trusses $(T,+,\circ,\sigma)$ previous work on left skew rings. We had presented a left skew ring as a group $(N,+)$ with two binary operations $\circ$ and $\cdot$ with $\circ$ associative, $\cdot$ left…
We improve Algorithm 5.1 of [Math. Comp. {\bf 86} (2017), 2519-2534] for computing all non-isomorphic skew left braces, and enumerate left braces and skew left braces of orders up to 868 with some exceptions. Using the enumerated data, we…
