Let $\overline\mu_\Lambda(t):=\sum\limits_{m\geq1}\mu_\Lambda(m)t^m$ be the \emph{$\mu$-series} of a finite-dimensional tame algebra $\Lambda$ over an algebraically closed field, where $\mu_\Lambda(m)$ denotes the minimal number of…
A \emph{numerical semigroup} is a subset $\Lambda$ of the nonnegative integers that is closed under addition, contains $0$, and omits only finitely many nonnegative integers (called the \emph{gaps} of $\Lambda$). The collection of all…
We call the \emph{$p$-fundamental string} of a complex simple Lie algebra to the sequence of irreducible representations having highest weights of the form $k\omega_1+\omega_p$ for $k\geq0$, where $\omega_j$ denotes the $j$-th fundamental…
Billey et al. [arXiv:1507.04976] have recently discovered a surprisingly simple formula for the number $a_n(\sigma)$ of leaf-labelled rooted non-embedded binary trees (also known as phylogenetic trees) with $n\geq 1$ leaves, fixed (for the…
The \emph{index set} of a computable structure $\mathcal{A}$ is the set of indices for computable copies of $\mathcal{A}$. We determine the complexity of the index sets of various mathematically interesting structures, including arbitrary…
Lambda words are sequences obtained by encoding the differences between ordered elements of the form i+j\theta, where i and j are non-negative integers and 1 < \theta <2. Lambda words are right-infinite words defined over an infinite…
The cluster complex $\Delta (\Phi)$ is an abstract simplicial complex, introduced by Fomin and Zelevinsky for a finite root system $\Phi$. The positive part of $\Delta (\Phi)$ naturally defines a simplicial subdivision of the simplex on the…
Let $\Phi$ be an irreducible crystallographic root system with Weyl group $W$ and coroot lattice $\check{Q}$, spanning a Euclidean space $V$. Let $m$ be a positive integer and $\aA^m_\Phi$ be the arrangement of hyperplanes in $V$ of the…
We tackle several problems related to a finite irreducible crystallographic root system $\Phi$ in the real vector space $\mathbb E$. In particular, we study the combinatorial structure of the subsets of $\Phi$ cut by affine subspaces of…
The set of associative and commutative hypercomplex numbers, called the perfect hypercomplex algebra (PHA) is investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for an algebra to be a PHA via semi-tensor product(STP) of matrices are…
A permutation on an alphabet $ \Sigma $, is a sequence where every element in $ \Sigma $ occurs precisely once. Given a permutation $ \pi $= ($\pi_{1} $, $ \pi_{2} $, $ \pi_{3} $,....., $ \pi_{n} $) over the alphabet $ \Sigma $ =$\{ $0, 1,…
An \itbf{indeterminate string} (or, more simply, just a \itbf{string}) $\s{x} = \s{x}[1..n]$ on an alphabet $\Sigma$ is a sequence of nonempty subsets of $\Sigma$. We say that $\s{x}[i_1]$ and $\s{x}[i_2]$ \itbf{match} (written $\s{x}[i_1]…
We introduce the concept of a prime band in a string algebra $\Lambda$ and use it to associate to $\Lambda$ its finite bridge quiver. Then we introduce a new technique of `recursive systems' for showing that a graph map between finite…
Let $\Sigma$ be a (reduced) root system. Let $\mathsf{k}$ be an algebraically closed field of zero characteristic, and consider the corresponding semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}_{\mathsf{k}, \Sigma}$. Then there is a first-order…
We study the notion of irreducibility of semigroup morphisms. Given an alphabet $\Sigma$, a morphism $\varphi:\Sigma^+\rightarrow\Sigma^+$ is irreducible if any factorisation $\varphi=\psi_2\circ\psi_1$ can only be satisfied if $\psi_1$ or…
Given a type $A$ root system $\Phi$ of rank $n$, we introduce the concept of a signature for each subset $S$ of $\Phi$ consisting of $n+1$ positive roots. For a subset $S$ represented by a tuple $(\beta_1, \ldots, \beta_{n+1})$, the…
We prove that the complement of a $\sigma$-compact subset of a topological space that has a $\pi$-tree also has a $\pi$-tree. To do this, we construct the foliage hybrid operation, which deals with foliage trees (that is, set-theoretic…
We consider finite trees with edges labeled by letters on a finite alphabet $\varSigma$. Each pair of nodes defines a unique labeled path whose trace is a word of the free monoid $\varSigma^*$. The set of all such words defines the language…
String algebras, in the usual sense, are finite-dimensional algebras over a given ground field. We recall a generalisation of the definition of a string algebra, which was introduced in a previous paper of the author. This generalisation…
We study identities of finite dimensional algebras over a field of characteristic zero, graded by an arbitrary groupoid $\Gamma$. First we prove that its graded colength has a polynomially bounded growth. For any graded simple algebra $A$…
