We define a bi-skew brace to be a set $G$ with two group operations $\star$ and $\circ$ so that $(G, \circ, \star)$ is a skew brace with additive group $(G, \star)$ and also with additive group $(G, \circ)$. If $G$ is a skew brace, then $G$…
Skew braces are intensively studied owing to their wide ranging connections and applications. We generalize the definition of a skew brace to give a new algebraic object, which we term a skew bracoid. Our construction involves two groups…
It is proved that if a left brace $A$ has the operation $\ast$ associative, then $A$ is a two-sided brace. Consequently, $A$ is a Jacobson radical ring. This answers a question of Ced\'o, Gateva-Ivanova and Smoktunowicz.
For a skew left brace $(G, \cdot, \circ)$, the map $\lambda : (G, \circ) \to \Aut \,(G, \cdot),~~a \mapsto \lambda_a,$ where $\lambda_a(b) = a^{-1} \cdot (a \circ b)$ for all $a, b \in G$, is a group homomorphism. Then $\lambda$ can also be…
L. N. Childs defined a bi-skew brace to be a skew brace such that if we swap the role of the two operations, then we find again a skew brace. In this paper, we give a systematic analysis of bi-skew braces. We study nilpotency and…
L. Childs has defined a skew brace $(G, \cdot, \circ)$ to be a bi-skew brace if $(G, \circ, \cdot)$ is also a skew brace, and has given applications of this concept to the equivalent theory of Hopf-Galois structures. The goal of this paper…
We prove a structure theorem for finite perfect two-sided skew braces. The main tool is a central product theory for skew braces, developed here in both external and internal form; we show that these two constructions are equivalent. Our…
Braces are generalizations of radical rings, introduced by Rump to study involutive non-degenerate set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation (YBE). Skew braces were also recently introduced as a tool to study not necessarily…
Skew bracoids have been shown to have applications in Hopf-Galois theory. We show that a certain family of skew bracoids correspond bijectively with left cancellative semibraces. A consequence of this correspondence is that skew bracoids in…
A skew brace, as introduced by L. Guarnieri and L. Vendramin, is a set with two group structures interacting in a particular way. When one of the group structures is abelian, one gets back the notion of brace as introduced by W. Rump. Skew…
This paper examines the connections between (relative) Rota--Baxter groups, skew left braces, and enlargements of these structures on naturally associated semi-direct products. Given a skew left brace, we define a new skew left brace,…
Quiver skew braces or skew bracoids are equivalent to braided groupoids, that is, groupoids with a constraint of abelianity. They are the quiver-theoretic version of skew braces, an increasingly studied structure lying in the intersection…
Braces were introduced by W. Rump in 2006 as an algebraic system related to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. In 2017, L. Guarnieri and L. Vendramin defined for the same purposes a more general notion of a skew left brace. Recently, L. Guo,…
Given a skew left brace $\mathfrak{B}$, we introduce the notion of an "opposite" skew left brace $\mathfrak{B}'$, which is closely related to the concept of the opposite of a group, and provide several applications. Skew left braces are…
Braces were introduced by Rump as a generalization of Jacobson radical rings. It turns out that braces allow us to use ring-theoretic and group-theoretic methods for studying involutive solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation. If braces are…
The aim of this article is to advance the knowledge on the theory of skew left braces. We introduce a subclass of skew left braces, which we denote by $\mathcal{I}_n$, $n \ge 1$, such that elements of the annihilator and lower central…
In order to study two-sided skew braces, we introduce the notion of weakly trivial skew braces. We give a classification of such skew braces and show that they are essential in the study of two-sided skew braces. As an application, we…
We define the twofold semidirect product of two skew left braces, in which both the additive and multiplicative groups are semidirect products of the corresponding groups of the given skew left braces. We consider an odd prime $p$ and an…
In an attempt to understand the origins and the nature of the law binding together two group operations into a {\em skew brace}, introduced in [L.\ Guarnieri \& L.\ Vendramin, Math.\ Comp.\ \textbf{86} (2017), 2519--2534] as a non-Abelian…
We investigate two sub-classes of skew bracoids, the first consists of those we term almost a brace, meaning the multiplicative group decomposes as a certain semi-direct product, and then those that are almost classical, which additionally…
