We give a geometric approach to integer factorization. This approach is based on special approximations of segments of the curve that is represented by $y=n/x$, where $n$ is the integer whose factorization we need.
A numerical semigroup is a subset of the non-negative integers that is closed under addition. For a randomly generated numerical semigroup, the expected number of minimum generators can be expressed in terms of a doubly-indexed sequence of…
The aim of this manuscript is to give some basic notions related to numerical semigroups, and from these on the one hand describe a classical application to the study of singularities of plane algebraic curves, and on the other, show how…
We investigate the uniqueness of factorisation of possibly disconnected finite graphs with respect to the Cartesian, the strong and the direct product. It is proved that if a graph has $n$ connected components, where $n$ is prime, or…
A regular bipartite graph $\Gamma$ is called semisymmetric if its full automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(\Gamma)$ acts transitively on the edge set but not on the vertex set. For a subgroup $G$ of $\mathrm{Aut}(\Gamma)$ that stabilizes the…
We construct a pairing, which we call factorization homology, between framed manifolds and higher categories. The essential geometric notion is that of a vari-framing of a stratified manifold, which is a framing on each stratum together…
We study the symmetric monoidal 2-category of finite semisimple module categories over a symmetric fusion category. In particular, we study $E_n$-algebras in this 2-category and compute their $E_n$-centers for $n=0,1,2$. We also compute the…
A subset $S$ of an integral domain $R$ is called a semidomain provided that the pairs $(S,+)$ and $(S, \cdot)$ are semigroups with identities. The study of factorizations in integral domains was initiated by Anderson, Anderson, and…
Given a non-decreasing sequence S = (s 1,s 2,. .. ,s k) of positive integers, an S-packing edge-coloring of a graph G is a partition of the edge set of G into k subsets {X 1 ,X 2,. .. ,X k } such that for each 1 $\le$ i $\le$ k, the…
The commuting graph of a group $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$, two distinct vertices joined if they commute. Our purpose in this paper is twofold: we discuss the computational problem of deciding whether a given…
In this paper, we consider various graphs, namely: power graph, cyclic graph, enhanced power graph and commuting graph, on a finite semigroup $S$. For an arbitrary pair of these four graphs, we classify finite semigroups such that the…
The distinguishing result of this paper is a $\mathbf{P}$-time enumerable partition of all the potential perfect matchings in a bipartite graph. This partition is a set of equivalence classes induced by the missing edges in the potential…
We study the number of ways of factoring elements in the complex reflection groups G(r,s,n) as products of reflections. We prove a result that compares factorization numbers in G(r,s,n) to those in the symmetric group on n letters, and we…
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.,…
Given a join semilattice $S$ with a minimum $\hat{0}$, the quarks (also called atoms in order theory) are the elements that cover $\hat{0}$, and for each $x \in S \setminus \{\hat{0}\}$ a factorization (into quarks) of $x$ is a minimal set…
Topological drawings are natural representations of graphs in the plane, where vertices are represented by points, and edges by curves connecting the points. Topological drawings of complete graphs and of complete bipartite graphs have been…
A tree containing exactly two non-pendant vertices is called a double-star. Let $k_1$ and $k_2$ be two positive integers. The double-star with degree sequence $(k_1+1, k_2+1, 1, \ldots, 1)$ is denoted by $S_{k_1, k_2}$. If $G$ is a cubic…
Matrices are the most common representations of graphs. They are also used for the representation of algebras and cluster algebras. This paper shows some properties of matrices in order to facilitate the understanding and locating…
A factorization of an $n \times n$ nonnegative symmetric matrix $A$ of the form $BCB^T$, where $C$ is a $k \times k$ symmetric matrix, and both $B$ and $C$ are required to be nonnegative, is called the Symmetric Nonnegative Matrix…
A semi-algebraic set is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ defined by a finite collection of polynomial equations and inequalities. In this paper, we investigate the problem of determining whether two points in such a set belong to the same…
