Domain operations on semirings have been axiomatised in two different ways: by a map from an additively idempotent semiring into a boolean subalgebra of the semiring bounded by the additive and multiplicative unit of the semiring, or by an…
A complete set of primitive orthogonal idempotents plays an important role in the representation theory of an associative algebra. In this paper, we construct a complete set of primitive orthogonal idempotents for any finite Brandt…
Let $G$ be a group and let $R$ be a $G$-graded ring. We show that a nonzero central idempotent in $R$ has finite support group in two broad settings: when $G$ is abelian, and when $G$ is arbitrary but the grading satisfies a certain…
We show that every periodic element of the free idempotent generated semigroup on an arbitrary biordered set belongs to a subgroup of the semigroup.
Skew idempotent functionals of ordered semirings are studied. Different associative and non-associative semirings are considered. Theorems about properties of skew idempotent functionals are proved. Examples are given.
The fundamental theorem of symmetric polynomials over rings is a classical result which states that every unital commutative ring is fully elementary, i.e. we can express symmetric polynomials with elementary ones in a unique way. The…
We establish two sufficient conditions for an additively idempotent semiring to be nonfinitely based. As applications, we prove that two specific $4$-element additively idempotent semirings, $S_{(4,545)}$ and $S_{(4,634)}$, whose additive…
We prove that if S is a commutative semigroup with well founded universal semilattice or a solvable inverse semigroup with well founded semilattice of idempotents, then every strongly productive ultrafilter on S is idempotent. Moreover we…
In this paper we present a new embedding of a semigroup into a semiband (idempotent-generated semigroup) of depth 4 (every element is the product of 4 idempotents) using a semidirect product construction. Our embedding does not assume that…
The separability tensor element of a separable extension of noncommutative rings is an idempotent when viewed in the correct endomorphism ring; so one speaks of a separability idempotent, as one usually does for separable algebras. It is…
We study a ring containing a complete set of orthogonal idempotents as a generalized matrix ring via its Peirce decomposition. We focus on the case where some of the underlying bimodule homomorphisms are zero. Upper and lower triangular…
An ordered semiring is a commutative semiring equipped with a compatible preorder. Ordered semirings generalise both distributive lattices and commutative rings, and provide a convenient framework to unify certain aspects of lattice theory…
We provide a complete classification of matrix semirings $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ over two-element additively idempotent semirings $S$ with respect to the finite basis property.Our main theorem shows that for every integer $n \geq 2$,the semiring…
The paper develops further the theory of quandle rings which was introduced by the authors in a recent work. Orderability of quandles is defined and many interesting examples of orderable quandles are given. It is proved that quandle rings…
The tropical semifield, i.e., the real numbers enhanced by the operations of addition and maximum, serves as a base of tropical mathematics. Addition is an abelian group operation, whereas the maximum defines an idempotent semigroup…
Idempotent elements play a fundamental role in ring theory, as they encode significant information about the underlying algebraic structure. In this paper, we study idempotent matrices from two perspectives. First, we analyze the partially…
A semigroup is \emph{regular} if it contains at least one idempotent in each $\mathcal{R}$-class and in each $\mathcal{L}$-class. A regular semigroup is \emph{inverse} if satisfies either of the following equivalent conditions: (i) there is…
A semiring can be ``completed'' (i.e., embedded into a semiring in which all infinite sums are defined and satisfy some reasonable properties) iff this semiring can be naturally partially ordered. This construction is ``natural'' (a left…
Binary idempotent semirings govern classical path algebras. Their multiplicative structure is dyadic. We examine whether this restriction is structural or accidental. We define ternary idempotent $\Gamma$-semirings as higher-arity ordered…
We provide short and direct proofs for some classical theorems proved by Howie, Levi and McFadden concerning idempotent generated semigroups of transformations on a finite set.
