We examine the computational complexity of problems in which we are given generators for a partial bijection semigroup and asked to check properties of the generated semigroup. We prove that the following problems are in AC$^0$: (1)…

In this paper we study finite monoids M such that the group algebras over a domain R for all Schutzenberger groups of M are cell algebras. We show that for any such M the monoid algebra A over R has a standard cell algebra structure. Using…

We investigate the computational complexity of various decision problems related to conjugacy in finite inverse semigroups. We describe polynomial-time algorithms for checking if two elements in such a semigroup are ~p conjugate and whether…

The Brauer monoid is studied by the notion of 0-cohomology. We investigate the impact of invertible elements of modifications on the structure of the Brauer monoid, especially for finite fields.

We consider two basic algorithmic problems concerning tuples of (skew-)symmetric matrices. The first problem asks to decide, given two tuples of (skew-)symmetric matrices $(B_1, \dots, B_m)$ and $(C_1, \dots, C_m)$, whether there exists an…

We prove a semisimplicity criterion for a large class of algebras by a new method. This can be applied to Brauer, BMW, and $q$-Brauer algebras.

This paper studies questions of coherence and strictification related to self-similarity - the identity $S\cong S\otimes S$ in a (semi-)monoidal category. Based on Saavedra's theory of units, we first demonstrate that strict self-similarity…

The Burau representation is a natural action of the braid group B_n on the free Z[t,t^{-1}]-module of rank n-1. It is a longstanding open problem to determine for which values of n this representation is faithful. It is known to be faithful…

Inspired by methods in prime characteristic in commutative algebra, we introduce and study combinatorial invariants of seminormal monoids. We relate such numbers with the singularities and homological invariants of the semigroup ring…

Using methods from algebraic topology and group cohomology, I pursue Grothendieck's question on equality of geometric and cohomological Brauer groups in the context of complex-analytic spaces. The main result is that equality holds under…

We construct certain monoids, called tied monoids. These monoids result to be semidirect products finitely presented and commonly built from braid groups and their relatives acting on monoids of set partitions. The nature of our monoids…

This paper has two main results. Firstly, we complete the parametrisation of all p-blocks of finite quasi-simple groups by finding the so-called quasi-isolated blocks of exceptional groups of Lie type for bad primes. This relies on the…

Kauffman monoids $\mathcal{K}_n$ and Jones monoids $\mathcal{J}_n$, $n=2,3,\dots$, are two families of monoids relevant in knot theory. We prove a somewhat counterintuitive result that the Kauffman monoids $\mathcal{K}_3$ and…

In this article, we study the elements with disconnected centralizer in the Brauer complex associated to a simple algebraic group G defined over a finite field with corresponding Frobenius map F and derive the number of F-stable semisimple…

Let $(H, R)$ be a finite dimensional quasitriangular Hopf algebra over a field $k$, and $_H\mathcal{M}$ the representation category of $H$. In this paper, we study the braided autoequivalences of the Drinfeld center $^H_H\mathcal{YD}$…

Jones monoids $\mathcal{J}_n$, for $1< n$, is a family of monoids relevant in knot theory. The purpose of this paper is to characterize of the identities satisfied by the Jones monoid $\mathcal{J}_5$.

Let T be a torus (not assumed to be split) over a field F, and denote by $_n{H^{2}_{et}(X,Gm)}$ the subgroup of elements of exponent dividing n in the cohomological Brauer group of a scheme X over the field F. We provide conditions on X and…

We determine when there exists a nonzero homomorphism between principal series representations of a complex semisimple Lie group. We also determines the existence of homomorphisms between twisted Verma modules.

Lie superbialgebra structures on the twisted N=1 Schr\"{o}dinger-Neveu-Schwarz algebra $\frak{tsns}$ are described. The corresponding necessary and sufficient conditions for such superbialgebra to be coboundary triangular are given.…
