In this article, we introduce the idempotentization process, which bears some philosophical and mathematical similarities with modern analytification and tropicalization. Idempotentization associates to any affine scheme an idempotent…
We study the number of solutions of the general semigroup equation in one variable, $X^\al=X^\be$, as well as of the system of equations $X^2=X, Y^2=Y, XY=YX$ in $H\wr T_n$, the wreath product of an arbitrary finite group $H$ with the full…
The main goal of this paper is to prove that the idempotent completions of the triangulated categories of singularities of two schemes are equivalent if the formal completions of these schemes along singularities are isomorphic. We also…
In this paper, we present and analyze methods for solving a system of linear equations over idempotent semifields. The first method is based on the pseudo-inverse of the system matrix. We then present a specific version of Cramer's rule…
In this paper semirings with an idempotent addition are considered. These algebraic structures are endowed with a partial order. This allows to consider residuated maps to solve systems of inequalities $A \otimes X \preceq B$. The purpose…
Central configurations give rise to self-similar solutions to the Newtonian $N$-body problem, and play important roles in understanding its complicated dynamics. Even the simple question of whether or not there are finitely many planar…
The spatial resolution of extensive thermodynamic functions is discussed. A physical definition of the spatial resolution based on a spatial analogy of partial molar quantities is advocated, which is shown to be consistent with how…
Let $\mathcal P(S)$ be the semigroup obtained by equipping the family of all non-empty subsets of a (multiplicatively written) semigroup $S$ with the operation of setwise multiplication induced by $S$ itself. We call a subsemigroup $P$ of…
A multidimensional extremal problem in the idempotent algebra setting is considered which consists in minimizing a nonlinear functional defined on a finite-dimensional semimodule over an idempotent semifield. The problem integrates two…
Recently V.Drinfeld formulated a number of problems in quantum group theory. In particular, he suggested to consider ``set-theoretical'' solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation, i.e. solutions given by a permutation $R$ of the set…
We explicitly find a complete set of ${1\over4}(n+2)^2$ (resp. ${1\over4}(n+1)(n+3)$) primitive orthogonal idempotents in ${\rm Sym}^n\mathbb{H}\otimes_\mathbb{R}\mathbb{C}$ if $n$ is even (resp. odd), where ${\rm Sym}^n\mathbb{H}$ is the…
An ideal of polynomials is symmetric if it is closed under permutations of variables. We relate general symmetric ideals to the so called Specht ideals generated by all Specht polynomials of a given shape. We show a connection between the…
In this thesis we study the subsemigroup structure of the symmetric inverse monoid $I_X$, the inverse semigroup of bijections between subsets of the set $X$, when $X$ is an infinite set. We explore three different approaches to this task.…
We provide the structure of some idempotents in the integral ring of a dihedral quandles, for odd case. The solution is complete in case $n=5$. This produces an example of a connected quandle $X$ such that $Aut (X)\not\cong Aut…
This survey aims to collect the main results of the theory of the set-theoretical solutions to the pentagon equation obtained up to now in the literature. In particular, we present some classes of solutions and raise some questions.
Let $X$ and $Y$ be finite simplicial sets (e.g. finite simplicial complexes), both equipped with a free simplicial action of a finite group $G$. Assuming that $Y$ is $d$-connected and $\dim X\le 2d$, for some $d\geq 1$, we provide an…
Let $\mathcal{P}_s(n)$ denote the $n$th $s$-gonal number. We consider the equation \[\mathcal{P}_s(n) = y^m, \] for integers $n,s,y,$ and $m$. All solutions to this equation are known for $m>2$ and $s \in \{3,5,6,8,20 \}$. We consider the…
We characterize when the finite Cartesian product of central sets near idempotent is central near idempotent. Moreover, we provide a partial characterization for the infinite Cartesian product of the same. Then, we study the abundance of…
Some of the classical results of Ramsey Theory can be naturally stated in terms of image partition regularity of matrices. There have been many significant results of image partition regular matrices as well as image partition regular…
Spectrahedra are sets defined by linear matrix inequalities. Projections of spectrahedra are called semidefinitely representable sets. Both kinds of sets are of practical use in polynomial optimization, since they occur as feasible sets in…
