A subset $\mathcal{A}\subseteq\mathbb{Z}$ is called $s$-almost square universal if every sufficiently large positive integer can be written as a sum of at most $s$ squares of integers from $\mathcal{A}$. In this article, we study the…
Let $[n]$ be a finite chain $\{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$, and let $\mathcal{LS}_{n}$ be the semigroup consisting of all isotone and order-decreasing partial transformations on $[n]$. Moreover, let $\mathcal{SS}_{n} = \{\alpha \in \mathcal{LS}_{n}…
Let a, k, h, c be positive integers and d a non zero integer. Recall that a numerical generalized almost arithmetic semigroup S is a semigroup minimally generated by relatively prime positive integers a, ha + d, ha + 2d, . . . , ha + kd, c,…
For a convergence group equipped with an expanding coarse-cocycle, we construct finitely generated free subsemigroups, which we call $\textit{Bishop--Jones}$ $\textit{semigroups}$, of critical exponent arbitrarily close to but strictly less…
In this paper we propose a model for computing a minimal free resolution for ideals of the form $I_{1}(X_{n}Y_{n})$, where $X_{n}$ is an $n\times n$ skew-symmetric matrix with indeterminate entries $x_{ij}$ and $Y_{n}$ is a generic column…
For a positive integer $m>1$, if the generalized Markoff equation $a^2+b^2+c^2=3abc+m$ has a solution triple, then it has infinitely many solutions. We show that all positive solution triples are generated by a finite set of triples that we…
We describe the subgroups of the group $\Z_m \times \Z_n \times \Z_r$ and derive a simple formula for the total number $s(m,n,r)$ of the subgroups, where $m,n,r$ are arbitrary positive integers. An asymptotic formula for the function…
For a positive integer $n$, the full transformation semigroup $T_n$ consists of all self maps of the set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ under composition. Any finite semigroup $S$ embeds in some $T_n$, and the least such $n$ is called the (minimum…
Let $G$ be a group which admits the structure of an iterated semidirect product of finitely generated free groups. We construct a finite, free resolution of the integers over the group ring of $G$. This resolution is used to define…
We show that, for a positive integer $r$, every minimal 1-saturating set in ${\rm PG}(r-1,2)$ of size at least ${11/36} 2^r+3$ is either a complete cap or can be obtained from a complete cap $S$ by fixing some $s\in S$ and replacing every…
This paper is a continuation of the paper "Numerical Semigroups: Ap\'ery Sets and Hilbert Series". We consider the general numerical AA-semigroup, i.e., semigroups consisting of all non-negative integer linear combinations of relatively…
Suppose $G$ is a finite abelian group and $S$ is a sequence of elements in $G$. For any element $g$ of $G$, let $N_g(S)$ denote the number of subsequences of $S$ with sum $g$. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the lower bound for…
Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group---possibly non-connected---over a field $k$ and let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. If $G= GL_n$ then there is a degeneration process for obtaining from $H$ a completely reducible subgroup $H'$ of $G$; one…
The algebraic form of Hilbert's 13th Problem asks for the resolvent degree $\text{rd}(n)$ of the general polynomial $f(x) = x^n + a_1 x^{n-1} + \ldots + a_n$ of degree $n$, where $a_1, \ldots, a_n$ are independent variables. The resolvent…
Given polynomials f(x), g_i(x), h_j(x), we study how to minimize f on the semialgebraic set S = { x \in R^n: h_1(x)=...=h_{m_1}(x) =0, g_1(x) >= 0, ..., g_{m_2}(x) >= 0}. Let f_{min} be the minimum of f on S. Suppose S is nonsingular and…
We carry out the complete group classification of the class of (1+1)-dimensional linear Schr\"odinger equations with complex-valued potentials. After introducing the notion of uniformly semi-normalized classes of differential equations, we…
For associative algebras in many different categories, it is possible to develop the machinery of Gr\"obner bases. A Gr\"obner basis of defining relations for an algebra of such a category provides a "monomial replacement" of this algebra.…
An affine semigroup is a finitely generated subsemigroup of $(\mathbb Z_{\ge 0}^d, +)$, and a numerical semigroup is an affine semigroup with $d = 1$. A growing body of recent work examines shifted families of numerical semigroups, that is,…
In this article, we give the explicit minimal free resolution of the associated graded ring of certain affine monomial curves in affine 4-space based on the standard basis theory. As a result, we give the minimal graded free resolution and…
