Let X be compact abelian group and G its dual (a discrete group). If B is an infinite subset of G, let C_B be the set of all x in X such that <phi(x) : phi \in B> converges to 1. If F is a free filter on G, let D_F be the union of all the…

Numerical semigroups have been extensively studied throughout the literature, and many of their invariants have been characterized. In this work, we generalize some of the most important results about symmetry, pseudo-symmetry, or…

Let $p$ be a prime. A $p$-group $G$ is defined to be semi-extraspecial if for every maximal subgroup $N$ in $Z(G)$ the quotient $G/N$ is a an extraspecial group. In addition, we say that $G$ is ultraspecial if $G$ is semi-extraspecial and…

We prove that a semialgebraically connected affine Nash group over a real closed field R is Nash isogenous to the semialgebraically connected component of the group H(R) of R-points of some algebraic group H defined over R. In the case when…

We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for an algebraic set in a group to have a fully characteristic radical. As a result, we see that if the radical of a system of equation $S$ over a group $G$ is fully characteristic, then there…

Given a family $F$ of subsets of a group $G$ we describe the structure of its thin-completion $\tau^*(F)$, which is the smallest thin-complete family that contains $I$. A family $F$ of subsets of $G$ is called thin-complete if each $F$-thin…

A simple way of computing the Ap\'ery set of a numerical semigroup (or monoid) with respect to a generator, using Groebner bases, is presented, together with a generalization for affine semigroups. This computation allows us to calculate…

Suppose that $X$ be a nonempty set. Denote by $\mathcal{T}(X)$ the full transformation semigroup on $X$. For $\varnothing \neq Z\subseteq Y\subseteq X$, let $\mathcal{T}(X,Y,Z)=\{\alpha \in \mathcal{T}(X): Y\alpha \subseteq Z \}$. Then…

Let $(G,+)$ be a countable abelian group such that the subgroup $\{g+g\colon g\in G\}$ has finite index and the doubling map $g\mapsto g+g$ has finite kernel. We establish lower bounds on the upper density of a set $A\subset G$ with respect…

For an Abelian group $G$, any homomorphism $\mu\colon G\otimes G\rightarrow G$ is called a \textsf{multiplication} on $G$. The set $\text{Mult}\,G$ of all multiplications on an Abelian group $G$ is an Abelian group with respect to addition.…

We say that an algebraic group $G$ over a field is anti-affine if every regular function on $G$ is constant. We obtain a classification of these groups, with applications to the structure of algebraic groups in positive characteristics, and…

We call an affine algebraic supergroup quasireductive if its underlying algebraic group is reductive. We obtain some results about the structure and representations of reductive supergroups.

Given a subset $W$ of an abelian group $G$, a subset $C$ is called an additive complement for $W$ if $W+C=G$; if, moreover, no proper subset of $C$ has this property, then we say that $C$ is a minimal complement for $W$. It is natural to…

Let $T(X)$ (resp. L(V)) be the semigroup of all transformations (resp. linear transformations) of a set $X$ (resp. vector space $V$). For a subset $Y$ of $X$ and a subsemigroup $\mathbb{S}(Y)$ of $T(Y)$, consider the subsemigroup…

Let $(G,*)$ and $(G',\cdot)$ be groupoids. A bijection $f: G \rightarrow G'$ is called a half-isomorphism if $f(x*y)\in\{f(x)\cdot f(y),f(y)\cdot f(x)\}$, for any $ x, y \in G$. A half-isomorphism of a groupoid onto itself is a…

This note is purely expository. A subset N of the plane is affine ambient homogeneous if for each x,y in N there exists an affine transformation taking x to y and N to itself. The result of D. Repovs, E. V. Scepin and the author on such…

For a semisimple algebraic group $G$ of adjoint type with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ over the complex numbers, we establish a bijection between the set of closed orbits of the group $G \ltimes \mathfrak g^{\ast}$ acting on the variety of…

Let $T(X)$ be the full transformation semigroup on a set $X$, and let $L(V)$ be the semigroup under composition of all linear transformations on a vector space $V$ over a field. For a subset $Y$ of $X$ and a subspace $W$ of $V$, consider…

We show that every Abelian group satisfying a mild cardinal inequality admits a pseudocompact group topology from which all countable subgroups inherit the maximal totally bounded topology (we say that such a topology satisfies property…

Let A,B be two random subsets of a finite group G. We consider the event that the products of elements from A and B span the whole group; i.e. (AB union BA) = G. The study of this event gives rise to a group invariant we call \Theta(G).…
