It is shown that the category of semi-biproducts in monoids is equivalent to a category of pseudo-actions. A semi-biproduct in monoids is at the same time a generalization of a semi-direct product in groups and a biproduct in commutative…
A generalization to the categorical notion of biproduct, called semibiproduct, which in the case of groups covers classical semidirect products, has recently been analysed in the category of monoids with surprising results in the…
It is shown that the category of \emph{semi-biproducts} of monoids is equivalent to the category of \emph{pseudo-actions}. A semi-biproduct of monoids is a new notion, obtained through generalizing a biproduct of commutative monoids. By…
We introduce semidirect products of skew monoidal categories as a categorification of semidirect products of monoids (or, perhaps more familiarly, of groups). We also discuss how this construction interacts with monoidal, autonomous and…
We consider monoids equipped with a compatible quantale valued relation, to which we call quantale enriched monoids, and study semidirect products of such structures. It is well-known that semidirect products of monoids are closely related…
We construct a category equivalent to the category $\mathbf{Mon}$ of monoids and monoid homomorphisms, based on categories with strict factorization systems. This equivalence is then extended to the category $\mathbf{Mon_s}$ of unital…
We prove a structure result on proper extensions of two-sided restriction semigroups in terms of partial actions, generalizing respective results for monoids and for inverse semigroups and upgrading the latter. We introduce and study…
Nonuniqueness of semidirect decompositions of groups is an insufficiently studied question in contrast to direct decompositions. We obtain some results about semidirect decompositions for semidirect products with factors which are…
This paper concerns a class of semigroups that arise as products $US$, associated to what we call `action pairs'. Here $U$ and $S$ are subsemigroups of a common monoid and, roughly speaking, $S$ has an action on the monoid completion $U^1$…
Semiadditivity of an $\infty$-category, i.e. the existence of biproducts, provides it with useful algebraic structure in the form of a canonical enrichment in commutative monoids. This ultimately comes from the fact that the…
We associate to a bimonoidal functor, i.e. a bifunctor which is monoidal in each variable, a nonabelian version of a biextension. We show that such a biextension satisfies additional triviality conditions which make it a bilinear analog of…
We develop a theory of split extensions of unitary magmas, which includes defining such extensions and describing them via suitably defined semidirect product, yielding an equivalence between the categories of split extensions and of…
The monoid of multipliers of a semigroup object in a monoidal category is introduced, arising from an abstraction of the definition of the translational hull of an ordinary semigroup or of the multiplier algebra of a Banach algebra and…
We show how to define biproducts up to isomorphism in an arbitrary category without assuming any enrichment. The resulting notion coincides with the usual definitions whenever all binary biproducts exist or the category is suitably…
This paper touches on several interaction points of semigroups and constructions from category theory: An adjunction is established between categories with selected arrows and semigroups. Regular semigroups are characterized by split epi -…
When a category is equipped with a 2-cell structure it becomes a sesquicategory but not necessarily a 2-category. It is widely accepted that the latter property is equivalent to the middle interchange law. However, little attention has been…
The category $_{A}\mathbb{S}_{A}$ of bisemimodules over a semialgebra $A,$ with the so called Takahashi's tensor product $-\boxtimes_{A}-,$ is semimonoidal but not monoidal. Although not a unit in $_{A}\mathbb{S}%_{A},$ the base semialgebra…
We present some constructions of groupoids as: direct product, semidirect product, and we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a groupoid to be embedded into a direct product of groupoids. Also, we establish necessary and sufficient…
It is a well-known fact that the category $\mathsf{Cat}(\mathbf{C})$ of internal categories in a category $\mathbf{C}$ has a description in terms of crossed modules, when $\mathbf{C}=\mathbf{Gr}$ is the category of groups. The proof of this…
In many situations one encounters an entity that resembles a monoid. It consists of a carrier and two operations that resemble a unit and a multiplication, subject to three equations that resemble associativity and left and right unital…
