Let $T$ be a tree and $e$ an edge in $T$. If $C$ is a component of $T\setminus e$ and both $C$ and its complement are infinite we say that $C$ is a half-tree. The main result of this paper is that if $G$ is a closed subgroup of the…

Let ${\cal I}_n$ be the symmetric inverse semigroup on $X_n = \{1, 2,..., n\}$ and let ${\cal DDP}_n$ and ${\cal ODDP}_n$ be its subsemigroups of order-decreasing partial isometries and of order-preserving order-decreasing partial…

This paper summarizes substantive new results derived by a student team (the first three authors) under the direction of the fourth author at the 2005 session of the KSU REU ``Brainstorming and Barnstorming''. The main results are a…

We associate a graph ${\mathcal N}_{S}$ with a semigroup $S$ (called the upper non-nilpotent graph of $S$). The vertices of this graph are the elements of $S$ and two vertices are adjacent if they generate a semigroup that is not nilpotent…

We study the finitely generated abelian group $T(G)$ of endo-trivial $kG$-modules where $kG$ is the group algebra of a finite group $G$ over a field of characteristic $p>0$. When the representation type of the group algebra is not wild, the…

We present a structural approach of some results about jumps in the behavior of the profile (alias generating function) of hereditary classes of finite structures. We start with the following notion due to N.Thi\'ery and the second author.…

In the paper the notion of a star partial homeomorphism of a finite dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ is introduced. We describe the structure of the semigroup $\mathbf{PStH}_{\mathbb{R}^n}$ of star partial homeomorphisms of the…

The class of finitely presented algebras over a field $K$ with a set of generators $a_{1},\ldots , a_{n}$ and defined by homogeneous relations of the form $a_{1}a_{2}\cdots a_{n} =a_{\sigma (1)} a_{\sigma (2)} \cdots a_{\sigma (n)}$, where…

In order to study the structure of $A^+(B_n)$ -- the affine near-semiring over a Brandt semigroup -- this work completely characterizes the Green's classes of its semigroup reducts. In this connection, this work characterizes the elements…

The partial automorphism monoid of an inverse semigroup is an inverse monoid consisting of all isomorphisms between its inverse subsemigroups. We prove that a tightly connected fundamental inverse semigroup $S$ with no isolated nontrivial…

Last years a number of papers were devoted to describing automorphisms of semigroups of endomorphisms of free finitely generated universal algebras of some varieties: groups, semigroups, associative commutative algebras, inverse semigroups,…

This is a draft of a book submitted for publication by the AMS. Its theme is the remarkable interplay, accelerating in the last few decades, between topology and the theory of orderable groups, with applications in both directions. It…

Kiselman's semigroup $K_n$ was studied by Kudryavtseva and Mazorchuk, who posed the question of whether it is possible to classify all endomorphisms of $K_n$. In this paper, we provide a complete classification of endomorphisms of $K_n$ and…

The first part of the paper is a brief overview of Hindman's finite sums theorem, its prehistory and a few of its further generalizations, and a modern technique used in proving these and similar results, which is based on idempotent…

The complex algebra of an inverse semigroup with finitely many idempotents in each $\mathcal D$-class is stably finite by a result of Munn. This can be proved fairly easily using $C^*$-algebras for inverse semigroups satisfying this…

For a semigroup $S$, the covering number of $S$ with respect to semigroups, $\sigma_s(S)$, is the minimum number of proper subsemigroups of $S$ whose union is $S$. This article investigates covering numbers of semigroups and analogously…

We establish new results concerning endomorphisms of a finite chain if the cardinality of the image of such endomorphism is no more than some fixed number k. The semiring of all such endomorphisms can be seen as a k - simplex whose vertices…

We study topological properties of the symmetric inverse topological semigroup of finite transformations $\mathscr{I}_\lambda^n$ of the rank $\leqslant n$. We show that the topological inverse semigroup $\mathscr{I}_\lambda^n$ is…

Given an arbitrary group $G$ we construct a semigroup of idempotents (band) $B_G$ with the property that the free idempotent generated semigroup over $B_G$ has a maximal subgroup isomorphic to $G$. If $G$ is finitely presented then $B_G$ is…

Endowed with the binary operation of set addition carried over from the integers, the family $\mathcal P_{\mathrm{fin}}(\mathbb Z) $ of all non-empty finite subsets of $\mathbb Z$ forms a monoid whose neutral element is the singleton…
