A $G$-grading on a complex semisimple Lie algebra $L$, where $G$ is a finite abelian group, is called quasi-good if each homogeneous component is 1-dimensional and 0 is not in the support of the grading. Analogous to classical root systems,…

This article discusses numerical semigroups having a generator which is as large as possible. This turns out to be $2g+1$, where $g$ is the genus of the semigroup. We will show that these semigroups are closely related to symmetric…

Let $\mathcal C$ be a class of topological semigroups. A semigroup $X$ is called $absolutely$ $\mathcal C$-$closed$ if for any homomorphism $h:X\to Y$ to a topological semigroup $Y\in\mathcal C$, the image $h[X]$ is closed in $Y$. Let…

The aim of this paper is to study Iseki spaces of distinguished classes of ideals of a semiring endowed with a topology. We show that every Is\'{e}ki space is quasi-compact whenever the semiring is Noetherian. We characterize Is\'{e}ki…

A DR-semigroup $S$ (also known as a reduced E-semiabundant or reduced E-Fountain semigroup) is here viewed as a semigroup equipped with two unary operations $D,R$ satisfying finitely many equational laws. Examples include DRC-semigroups…

We describe the groups that have the same holomorph as a finite perfect group. Our results are complete for centerless groups. When the center is non-trivial, some questions remain open. The peculiarities of the general case are illustrated…

An algebraic structure is said to be congruence permutable if its arbitrary congruences $\alpha$ and $\beta$ satisfy the equation $\alpha \circ \beta =\beta \circ \alpha$, where $\circ$ denotes the usual composition of binary relations. For…

A countable semigroup is $\aleph_0$-categorical if it can be characterised, up to isomorphism, by its first-order properties. In this paper we continue our investigation into the $\aleph_0$-categoricity of semigroups. Our main results are a…

This paper is a contribution to the study of the subgroup structure of exceptional algebraic groups over algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic. Following Serre, a closed subgroup of a semisimple algebraic group $G$ is…

Fiedorowicz suggested that it was likely that every finite simply connected CW complex is homotopy equivalent to the classifying space of a finite semigroup. We prove that every finite wedge of simply connected Moore spaces of finitely…

Inspired by results for graph $C^*$-algebras, we investigate connections between the ideal structure of an inverse semigroup $S$ and that of its tight $C^*$-algebra by relating ideals in $S$ to certain open invariant sets in the associated…

Let $\lambda=(\lambda_1,\lambda_2,...)$ be a \emph{partition} of $n$, a sequence of positive integers in non-increasing order with sum $n$. Let $\Omega:=\{1,...,n\}$. An ordered partition $P=(A_1,A_2,...)$ of $\Omega$ has \emph{type}…

Around 1980 commutator theory was generalized from groups to arbitrary algebras using the socalled term condition commutator. The semigroups that are abelian with respect to this commutator were classified by Warne (1994). We study what…

For an arbitrary group $G$, it is shown that either the semigroup rank $G{\rm rk}S$ equals the group rank $G{\rm rk}G$, or $G{\rm rk}S = G{\rm rk}G+1$. This is the starting point for the rest of the article, where the semigroup rank for…

In a group $G$, elements $a$ and $b$ are conjugate if there exists $g\in G$ such that $g^{-1} ag=b$. This conjugacy relation, which plays an important role in group theory, can be extended in a natural way to inverse semigroups: for…

A residuated semigroup is a structure $\langle A,\le,\cdot,\backslash,/ \rangle$ where $\langle A,\le \rangle$ is a poset and $\langle A,\cdot \rangle$ is a semigroup such that the residuation law $x\cdot y\le z\iff x\le z/y\iff y\le x…

In this paper, we construct a new homology theory for semi-groups satisfying the self distributivity axiom or the idempotency axiom. Next, we consider the geometric realization corresponding to the homology theory. We continue with the…

From any directed graph $E$ one can construct the graph inverse semigroup $G(E)$, whose elements, roughly speaking, correspond to paths in $E$. Wang and Luo showed that the congruence lattice $L(G(E))$ of $G(E)$ is upper-semimodular for…

Profinite semigroups are a generalization of finite semigroups that come about naturally when one is interested in considering free structures with respect to classes of finite semigroups. They also appear naturally through dualization of…

For an Abelian group $G$, any homomorphism $\mu\colon G\otimes G\rightarrow G$ is called a \textsf{multiplication} on $G$. The set $\text{Mult}\,G$ of all multiplications on an Abelian group $G$ is an Abelian group with respect to addition.…
