Quasi-hereditary algebras were introduced by Cline, Parshall and Scott to describe the highest weight categories of representations of semisimple Lie algebras and algebraic groups by the module categories of finite-dimensional algebras.…
We introduce the notion of saturated sets of primes of an algebraic number field and prove an analogue of Riemann's existence theorem for the decomposition groups of infinite stably saturated sets of primes.
A commutative semigroup of abstract factorials is defined in the context of the ring of integers. We study such factorials for their own sake, whether they are or are not connected to sets of integers. Given a subset X of the positive…
Many groups possess highly symmetric generating sets that are naturally endowed with an underlying combinatorial structure. Such generating sets can prove to be extremely useful both theoretically in providing new existence proofs for…
In a recent work, N. Hindman, D. Strauss and L. Zamboni have shown that the Hales-Jewett theorem can be combined with a sufficiently well behaved homomorphisms. Their work was completely algebraic in nature, where they have used the algebra…
In the last years the attention towards topological dynamical properties of highly discontinuous maps has increased significantly. In [D.Corona, A. Della Corte. The critical exponent functions. Comptes Rendus Math\'ematique, 360(G4),…
We obtain algebraic characterizations of relative notions of size in a discrete semigroup that generalize the usual combinatorial notions of syndetic, thick, and piecewise syndetic sets. "Filtered" syndetic and piecewise syndetic sets were…
We introduce the notion of an enriched set, as an abstraction of enriched categories, and a category of enriched sets. The set of enriched sets is itself described as a set enriched over the category of enriched sets. We introduce a method…
Every mathematician is familiar with the beautiful structure of finite commutative groups. What is less well known is that finite commutative semigroups also have a neat and well-described structure. We prove this in an efficient fashion.…
Tensor products of ultrafilters have special combinatorial features closely related to Ramsey's Theorem, making them useful tools in applications. Here we first review their fundamental properties and isolate some new ones, including a…
A quasi-representation of a group is a map from the group into a matrix algebra (or similar object) that approximately satisfies the relations needed to be a representation. Work of many people starting with Kazhdan and Voiculescu, and…
Let $A$ be a semigroup whose only invertible element is 0. For an $A$-homogeneous ideal we discuss the notions of simple $i$-syzygies and simple minimal free resolutions of $R/I$. When $I$ is a lattice ideal, the simple 0-syzygies of $R/I$…
We first obtain finiteness properties for the collection of closed normal subgroups of a compactly generated locally compact group. Via these properties, every compactly generated locally compact group admits an essentially chief series -…
It has been recently proved (by Croot, Lev and Pach and the subsequent work by Ellenberg and Gijswijt) that for a group $G=G_0^n$, where $G_0\ne \{1,-1\}^m$ is a fixed finite Abelian group and $n$ is large, any subset $A$ without…
In their proof of the IP Szemer\'edi theorem, a far reaching extension of the classic theorem of Szemer\'edi on arithmetic progressions, Furstenberg and Katznelson introduced an important class of additively large sets called…
Let G be an isotropic reductive algebraic group over a commutative ring R. Assume that, for any maximal ideal M of R, the rank of the relative root system of G_{R_M} is greater or equal than 2. We show that under this assumption the…
'A semigroup is completely regular if and only if it is a union of groups'- an analogue of this structure theorem of completely regular semigroup has been obtained in the setting of seminearrings in [[16], Mukherjee (Pal) et al., Semigroup…
Using three examples of sequences over a finite alphabet, we want to draw attention to the fact that these sequences having the minimum critical exponent in a given class of sequences show a large degree of symmetry, i.e., they are G-rich…
The existence of a maximal ideal in a general nontrivial commutative ring is tied together with the axiom of choice. Following Berardi, Valentini and thus Krivine but using the relative interpretation of negation (that is, as "implies 0 =…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring of characteristic zero and $G$ an arbitrary group. In the present paper we classify the groups $G$ for which the set of symmetric elements with respect to the classical involution of the group ring $RG$ is Lie…
