An element $x$ of a lattice $L$ is modular if $L$ has no five-element sublattice isomorphic to the pentagon in which $x$ would correspond to the lonely midpoint. In the present work, we classify all modular elements of the lattice of all…
We characterize numerical semigroups for which the poset of its ideal class monoid is a lattice, and study the irreducible elements of such a lattice with respect to union, intersection, infimum and supremum.
A commutative monoid is atomic if every non-invertible element factors into irreducibles (also called atoms), while an integral (semi)domain is atomic if its multiplicative monoid is atomic. Notions weaker than atomicity have been…
In this paper, we study factorizations in the additive monoids of positive algebraic valuations $\mathbb{N}_0[\alpha]$ of the semiring of polynomials $\mathbb{N}_0[X]$ using a methodology introduced by D. D. Anderson, D. F. Anderson, and M.…
A monoid is aperiodic if all its subgroups are trivial. We completely classify all varieties of aperiodic monoids whose subvariety lattice is distributive.
A cancellative and commutative monoid $M$ is atomic if every non-invertible element of $M$ factors into irreducibles (also called atoms), and $M$ is hereditarily atomic if every submonoid of $M$ is atomic. In addition, $M$ is hereditary…
A submonoid of the additive group $\mathbb{Q}$ is called a Puiseux monoid if it consists of nonnegative rationals. Given a monoid $M$, the set consisting of all nonempty finite subsets of $M$ is also a monoid under the Minkowski sum, and it…
The local structures of enveloping semigroups of simple groups are investigated. All J-coirreducible connected stabilizer submonoids are determined. The notion of a navel of a reductive monoid is introduced. The cross-section lattice of the…
It is shown that the lattices of flats of boolean representable simplicial complexes are always atomistic, but semimodular if and only if the complex is a matroid. A canonical construction is introduced for arbitrary finite atomistic…
Let $M$ be a Puiseux monoid, that is, a monoid consisting of nonnegative rationals (under addition). A nonzero element of $M$ is called an atom if its only decomposition as a sum of two elements in $M$ is the trivial decomposition (i.e.,…
A semidomain is a subsemiring of an integral domain. One can think of a semidomain as an integral domain in which additive inverses are no longer required. A semidomain $S$ is additively reduced if $0$ is the only invertible element of the…
Let $M$ be a commutative cancellative monoid, and let $R$ be an integral domain. The question of whether the monoid ring $R[x;M]$ is atomic provided that both $M$ and $R$ are atomic dates back to the 1980s. In 1993, Roitman gave a negative…
An additive submonoid of the nonnegative cone of the real line is called a positive monoid. Positive monoids consisting of rational numbers (also known as Puiseux monoids) have been the subject of several recent papers. Moreover, those…
In this paper, we study the atomic structure of the family of Puiseux monoids. Puiseux monoids are a natural generalization of numerical semigroups, which have been actively studied since mid-nineteenth century. Unlike numerical semigroups,…
We study the geometry of algebraic monoids. We prove that the group of invertible elements of an irreducible algebraic monoid is an algebraic group, open in the monoid. Moreover, if this group is reductive, then the monoid is affine. We…
We completely classify all neutral or costandard elements in the lattice $\mathbb{MON}$ of all monoid varieties. Further, we prove that an arbitrary upper-modular element of $\mathbb{MON}$ except the variety of all monoids is either a…
For a positive real $\alpha$, we can consider the additive submonoid $M$ of the real line that is generated by the nonnegative powers of $\alpha$. When $\alpha$ is transcendental, $M$ is a unique factorization monoid. However, when $\alpha$…
If $\mathbb{F}$ is an ordered field and $M$ is a finite-rank torsion-free monoid, then one can embed $M$ into a finite-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}$ via the inclusion $M \hookrightarrow \text{gp}(M) \hookrightarrow \mathbb{F}…
In this paper, we study the atomic structure of Puiseux monoids generated by monotone sequences. To understand this atomic structure, it is often useful to know whether the monoid has a bounded generating set. We provide necessary and…
The set of all transformation monoids on a fixed set of infinite cardinality \lambda, equipped with the order of inclusion, forms a complete algebraic lattice Mon(\lambda) with 2^{\lambda} compact elements. We show that this lattice is…
