A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group G is called semi-bounded if the corresponding operators id\pi(x) from the derived representations are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset of the…
The idempotent semigroups (bands) that give rise to partial orders by defining $a \leq b \iff a \cdot b = a$ are the "right-regular" bands (RRB), which are axiomatized by $x\cdot y \cdot x = y \cdot x$. In this work we consider the class of…
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…
Fix $t\in [1,\infty]$. Let $S$ be an atomic commutative semigroup and, for all $x\in S$, let $\mathscr{L}_t(S):=\{\|f\|_t:f\in Z(x)\}$ be the "$t$-length set" of $x$ (using the standard $l_p$-space definition of $\|\cdot\|_t$). The…
In this paper we introduce the notion of right waist and right comparizer ideals for semigroups. In particular, we study the ideal theory of semigroups containing right waists and right comparizer ideals. We also study those properties of…
It is shown that the Cuntz semigroup of a space with dimension at most two, and with second cohomology of its compact subsets equal to zero, is isomorphic to the ordered semigroup of lower semicontinuous functions on the space with values…
In this paper we initiate the study of $\aleph_0$-categorical semigroups, where a countable semigroup $S$ is $\aleph_0$-categorical if, for any natural number $n$, the action of its group of automorphisms Aut $S$ on $S^n$ has only finitely…
The principal left ideal graph of a semigroup is a simple graph whose vertices are the non-zero elements of the semigroup, and two vertices are adjacent if their principal left ideals intersect non-trivially. In this paper, we study the…
We prove a structure result on proper extensions of two-sided restriction semigroups in terms of partial actions, generalizing respective results for monoids and for inverse semigroups and upgrading the latter. We introduce and study…
The power semigroup of a semigroup $ S $ is the semigroup of all nonempty subsets of $ S $ equipped with the naturally defined multiplication. A class $\mathcal{K} $ of semigroups is globally determined if any two members of $ \mathcal{K} $…
For semigroup $S$, a commutative congruence $\sigma_{orient}$ on $S$ and a subsemigroup Orientable($S$) of $S$ were introduced in "Two cancellative commutative congruences and group diagrams", Semigroup Forum (2011) 82: 338-353. Here we…
A subsemigroup S of a semigroup Q is a local left order in Q if, for every maximal subgroup H of Q, the intersection of S with H is a local left order in the sense of group theory. That is, every q in H can be written as a#b for some a,b in…
The semigroup $\mathbf{I}\mathbb{N}_{\infty}$ of all partial co-finite isometries of positive integers is studied. We describe Green's relations on the semigroup $\mathbf{I}\mathbb{N}_{\infty}$, its band and proved that…
We describe and count the maximal subsemigroups of many well-known monoids of transformations and monoids of partitions. More precisely, we find the maximal subsemigroups of the full spectrum of monoids of order- or orientation-preserving…
Recent research of the author has given an explicit geometric description of free (two-sided) adequate semigroups and monoids, as sets of labelled directed trees under a natural combinatorial multiplication. In this paper we show that there…
Groups with a topology that is in consistent one way or another with the algebraic structure are considered. Classical groups with a topology are topological, paratopological, semitopological, and quasitopological groups. We also study…
It is shown that the Ellis semigroup of a $\mathbb Z$-action on a compact totally disconnected space is completely regular if and only if forward proximality coincides with forward asymptoticity and backward proximality coincides with…
A semiring generalises the notion of a ring, replacing the additive abelian group structure with that of a commutative monoid. In this paper, we study a notion positioned between a ring and a semiring -- a semiring whose additive monoid is…
A completely simple semigroup S is a semigroup without zero which has no proper ideals and contains a primitive idempotent. It is known that S is a regular semigroup and any completely simple semigroup is isomorphic to the Rees matrix…
We systematically study the minimal conditions on $\mathcal{L}$-, $\mathcal{R}$- and $\mathcal{J}$-classes, denoted by $M_L$, $M_R$ and $M_J$, as well as the related notions of left/right/two-sided stability, in semigroups and biacts. In…
