Uninorms play a prominent role both in the theory and the applications of Aggregations and Fuzzy Logic. In this paper the class of group-like uninorms is introduced and characterized. First, two variants of a general construction -- called…

This article discusses numerical semigroups having a generator which is as large as possible. This turns out to be $2g+1$, where $g$ is the genus of the semigroup. We will show that these semigroups are closely related to symmetric…

For numerical semigroups with a specified list of (not necessarily minimal) generators, we obtain explicit asymptotic expressions, and in some cases quasipolynomial/quasirational representations, for all major factorization length…

We study the fusion semirings arising from easy quantum groups. We classify all the possible free ones, answering a question of T. Banica and R. Vergnioux : these are exactly the fusion rings of quantum groups without any nontrivial…

A digraph is semicomplete multipartite if its underlying graph is a complete multipartite graph. As a special case of semicomplete multipartite digraphs, J{\o}rgensen et al. \cite{JG14} initiated the study of doubly regular team…

Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_{i} | i\in I\}$ be a partition of the set $\Bbb{P}$ of all primes and $G$ a finite group. A chief factor $H/K$ of $G$ is said to be $\sigma$-central if the semidirect product $(H/K)\rtimes (G/C_{G}(H/K))$ is a…

In this paper we prove two new results about closed semigroups in the family of solvable groups H_{mn} that are semidirect products of R^m and R^n, and for which the structure homomorphism maps nontrivially into the center of Aut(R^n). The…

A free semigroup algebra S is the weak-operator-closed (non-self-adjoint) operator algebra generated by n isometries with pairwise orthogonal ranges. A unit vector x is said to be wandering for S if the set of images of x under…

We show that if $H \leq G$ is a closed amenable and cocompact subgroup of a unimodular locally compact group, then the reduced group C*-algebra of $G$ is not simple. Equivalently, there are unitary representations of $G$ that are weakly…

We classify the groups quasi-isometric to a group generated by finite-order elements within the class of one-ended hyperbolic groups which are not Fuchsian and whose JSJ decomposition over two-ended subgroups does not contain rigid vertex…

In this paper, we introduce and study the numerical semigroups generated by $\{a_1, a_2, \ldots \} \subset \mathbb{N}$ such that $a_1$ is the repunit number in base $b > 1$ of length $n > 1$ and $a_i - a_{i-1} = a\, b^{i-2},$ for every $i…

Motivated by a problem on the dynamics of compositions of plane hyperbolic isometries, we prove several fundamental results on semigroups of isometries, thought of as real M\"obius transformations. We define a semigroup $S$ of M\"obius…

Profinite semigroups are a generalization of finite semigroups that come about naturally when one is interested in considering free structures with respect to classes of finite semigroups. They also appear naturally through dualization of…

In this paper we present a new embedding of a semigroup into a semiband (idempotent-generated semigroup) of depth 4 (every element is the product of 4 idempotents) using a semidirect product construction. Our embedding does not assume that…

Let $\Gamma$ be a group, $\Re$ be a $\Gamma$-graded commutative ring with unity $1$ and $\Im$ a graded $\Re$-module. In this paper, we introduce the concept of graded weakly $J_{gr}$-semiprime submodules as a generalization of graded weakly…

We characterize affine semigroups having one Betti element and we compute some relevant non-unique factorization invariants for these semigroups. As an example, we particularize our description to numerical semigroups.

A proper subsemigroup of a semigroup is maximal if it is not contained in any other proper subsemigroup. A maximal subsemigroup of a finite semigroup has one of a small number of forms, as described in a paper of Graham, Graham, and Rhodes.…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p > 0$. We consider connected reductive subgroups $X$ of $G$ that contain a given distinguished unipotent element $u$ of $G$. A result of…

We establish lower estimates for singular value gaps of free products of $1$-divergent semigroups $\Gamma_1,\Gamma_2\subset \mathsf{GL}_d(\mathbb{K})$ which are in ping-pong position. As an application, we prove that if $\Gamma_1$ and…

Let $V$ be a vector space and $U$ a fixed subspace of $V$. We denote the semigroup of all linear transformations on $V$ under composition of functions by $L(V)$. In this paper, we study the semigroup of all linear transformations on $V$…
