This paper continues the investigation of non-zero determinants associated with finite semigroups containing a pair of non-commuting idempotents, as initiated in~\cite{Sha-Det2}. We focus on a class of semigroups, called \( \lll \)-smooth…
The Catalan numbers are well-known to be the answer to many different counting problems, and so there are many different families of sets whose cardinalities are the Catalan numbers. We show how such a family can be given the structure of a…
The basic data for a skew-monoidal category are the same as for a monoidal category, except that the constraint morphisms are no longer required to be invertible. The constraints are given a specific orientation and satisfy Mac Lane's five…
We observe that for each $n\ge 2$, the identities of the stylic monoid with $n$ generators coincide with the identities of $n$-generated monoids from other distinguished series of $\mathscr{J}$-trivial monoids studied in the literature,…
The Catalan simplicial set $\mathbb{C}$ is known to classify skew-monoidal categories in the sense that a map from $\mathbb{C}$ to a suitably defined nerve of $\mathrm{Cat}$ is precisely a skew-monoidal category \cite{Catalan1}. We extend…
We establish a new sufficient condition under which a monoid is non-finitely based and apply this condition to show that the 9-element monoid $L_4^1$ is non-finitely based. The monoid $L_4^1$ was the only unsolved case in the finite basis…
In an earlier paper, the second-named author has described the identities holding in the so-called Catalan monoids. Here we extend this description to a certain family of Hecke--Kiselman monoids including the Kiselman monoids…
We show that the 42-element monoid of all partial order preserving and extensive injections on the 4-element chain is not contained in any variety generated by a finitely based finite $\mathcal{R}$-trivial semigroup. This provides unified…
In this paper, we discuss modules and structures of the planar upper triangular rook monoid B_n. We first show that the order of B_n is a Catalan number, then we investigate the properties of a module V over B_n generated by a set of…
Many monoidal-type objects are known to be classified by maps from the Catalan simplicial set $\mathbb{C}$ to various nerves of categories and higher categories. There are, for example, three different nerves of the 2-category of categories…
This article offers a comprehensive survey of results obtained for solitons and complex nonlinear wave patterns supported by purely nonlinear lattices (NLs), which represent a spatially periodic modulation of the local strength and sign of…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of Autometrized lattice ordered monoids (for short,AL-monoids) as a generalization to DRl-semi groups. We obtain the basic properties of AL-monoids. Also, we prove that Autometrized lattice ordered…
Let \(A=(A,\star)\) be a finite binary algebra, not necessarily associative. For each \(n\geq 1\), every full binary bracketing on \(x_1,\dots,x_n\) determines an \(n\)-ary term operation on \(A\), and hence an evaluation word obtained by…
In this paper we survey $n$-dimensional solenoidal manifolds for $n=1,2$ and 3, and present new results about them. Solenoidal manifolds of dimension $n$ are metric spaces locally modeled on the product of a Cantor set and an open…
We give a classification of noncommutative algebraic monoid structures on normal affine varieties such that the group of invertible elements of the monoid is connected, solvable, and has a one-dimensional unipotent radical. We describe the…
We completely classify all standard elements in the lattice of all monoid varieties. In particular, we prove that an element of this lattice is standard if and only if it is neutral.
We say that a topological monoid $S$ is left non-archimedean (in short: l-NA) if the left action of $S$ on itself admits a proper $S$-compactification $\nu \colon S \hookrightarrow Y$ such that $Y$ is a Stone space. This provides a natural…
We propose a modified condition of consistency on cubic lattices for some special classes of two-dimensional discrete equations and prove that the discrete nonlinear equations defined by determinants of matrices of orders N > 2 are…
In this (mostly expository) paper I want to share some observations prompted by a class of matrices whose determinants are Catalan numbers. Considering different methods of proof we obtain some generalizations and q-analogues and…
We establish a new sufficient condition under which a monoid is non-finitely based and apply this condition to Lee monoids $L_\ell^1$, obtained by adjoining an identity element to the semigroup generated by two idempotents $a$ and $b$…
