We investigate the groups of units of one-relator and special inverse monoids. These are inverse monoids which are defined by presentations where all the defining relations are of the form $r=1$. We develop new approaches for finding…
We consider the torsion of homology groups of right pointed sets over a partially commutative monoid M(E,I)
In this paper we show that membership in finitely generated submonoids is undecidable for the free metabelian group of rank 2 and for the wreath product $\mathbb Z\wr (\mathbb Z\times \mathbb Z)$. We also show that subsemimodule membership…
The free regular $\star$-monoid of rank $r$ is the freest $r$-generated regular monoid $\mathbf{F}_r^\star$ in which every element $m$ has a distinguished pseudo-inverse $m^\star$ satisfying $mm^\star m = m$ and $(m^\star)^\star = m$. We…
We study a coarse homology theory with prescribed growth conditions. For a finitely generated group G with the word length metric this homology theory turns out to be related to amenability of G. We characterize vanishing of a certain…
We study the equivariant Ehrhart theory of families of polytopes that are invariant under a non-trivial action of the group with order two. We study families of polytopes whose equivariant $H^*$-polynomial both succeed and fail to be…
A regular ordered semigroup $S$ is called right inverse if every principal left ideal of $S$ is generated by an $\mathcal{R}$-unique ordered idempotent. Here we explore the theory of right inverse ordered semigroups. We show that a regular…
A \emph{bipartite monoid} is a commutative monoid $\Q$ together with an identified subset $\P \subset \Q$. In this paper we study a class of bipartite monoids, known as \emph{mis\`ere quotients}, that are naturally associated to impartial…
A symmetric monoidal category is a category equipped with an associative and commutative (binary) product and an object which is the unit for the product. In fact, those properties only hold up to natural isomorphisms which satisfy some…
In this paper, we study the phenomenology of right-handed neutrino isosinglets. We consider the general situation where the neutrino masses are not necessarily given by $m_D^2/M$, where $m_D$ and $M$ are the Dirac and Majorana mass terms…
In many situations one encounters an entity that resembles a monoid. It consists of a carrier and two operations that resemble a unit and a multiplication, subject to three equations that resemble associativity and left and right unital…
Given a category with a bifunctor and natural isomorphisms for associativity, commutativity and left and right identity we do not assume that extra constraining diagrams hold. We introduce groupoids of coupling trees to describe a version…
A function on an algebra is congruence preserving if, for any congruence, it maps congruent elements to congruent elements. We show that, on a free monoid generated by at least 3 letters, a function from the free monoid into itself is…
In this paper, among other results, there are described (complete) simple - simultaneously ideal- and congruence-simple - endomorphism semirings of (complete) idempotent commutative monoids; it is shown that the concepts of simpleness,…
The monoid of all partial injections on a finite set (the symmetric inverse semigroup) is of particular interest because of the well-known Wagner-Preston Theorem. In this article, we step forward the study of a submonoid of the symmetric…
It is proved that the periodic point submonoid of a free inverse monoid endomorphism is always finitely generated. Using Chomsky's hierarchy of languages, we prove that the fixed point submonoid of an endomorphism of a free inverse monoid…
This paper studies the zero-classes of monoid semi-congruences, understood as internal reflexive relations on a monoid. Classical examples include normal submonoids, which arise as zero-classes of congruences, and positive cones, which are…
Graph products of monoids provide a common framework for direct and free products, and graph monoids (also known as free partially commutative monoids). If the monoids in question are groups, then any graph product is, of course, a group.…
In this paper, we study the geometry of AL-monoids by introducing the concept of metric betweeness and its properties t1, t2,, B-linearity, D-linearity, lattice betweeness, B-linearity, and Dlinearity, segments and equilateral triangles. It…
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…
