We prove that a countable dimensional associative algebra (resp. a countable semigroup) of locally subexponential growth is $M_\infty$-embeddable as a left ideal in a finitely generated algebra (resp. semigroup) of subexponential growth.…

We study the class of monoids that arise as the submonoid of right units of finitely presented special inverse monoids (SIMs). Gray and Ru\v{s}kuc (2024) gave the first example of a finitely presented SIM whose submonoid of right units does…

Graph products of monoids provide a common framework for free products and direct products. Trace monoids are graph products of finitely generated free monoids. We investigate the interaction of certain finitary conditions with graph…

We construct monoid algebras which satisfy the ascending chain condition on principal ideals and which have the property that every nonempty subset of $\mathbb{N}_{\ge 2}$ occurs as a length set.

For a semigroup $S$ and a right $\mathbb{Z}[S]$-submodule $J\leq \mathbb{Z}[S]^n$, we study expansivity of the algebraic action of $S$ induced on the Pontryagin dual of $\mathbb{Z}[S]^n/J$. We completely determine the class of semigroups…

Several authors have studied the question of when the monoid ring DM of a monoid M over a ring D is a right and/or left fir (free ideal ring), a semifir, or a 2-fir (definitions recalled in section 1). It is known that for M nontrivial, a…

We consider the general question of how the homological finiteness property left-FPn holding in a monoid influences, and conversely depends on, the property holding in the substructures of that monoid. In particular we show that left-FPn is…

For a semigroup $S$ whose universal right congruence is finitely generated (or, equivalently, a semigroup satisfying the homological finiteness property of being type right-$FP_1$), the right diameter of $S$ is a parameter that expresses…

Defining P* to be the complete lattice of upsets (ordered by reverse inclusion) of a poset P we give necessary and sufficient conditions on a subset S of P* for P to admit a meet-completion e from P to Q where e preserves the infimum of an…

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…

We provide a geometric model for the free $X$-generated $F$-restriction semigroup in the extended signature $(\cdot\,, ^+, ^m,\lambda)$, where the unary operation $^m$ maps an element $a$ to the maximum element $a^m$ of its $\sigma$-class,…

We study the connection between amenability, F{\o}lner conditions and the geometry of finitely generated semigroups. Using results of Klawe, we show that within an extremely broad class of semigroups (encompassing all groups, left…

We call a restriction semigroup almost perfect if it is proper and its least monoid congruence is perfect. We show that any such semigroup is isomorphic to a `$W$-product' $W(T,Y)$, where $T$ is a monoid, $Y$ is a semilattice and there is a…

We show how topological methods developed in a previous article can be applied to prove new results about topological and homological finiteness properties of monoids. A monoid presentation is called special if the right-hand side of each…

Let $M$ be a monoid that is embeddable in a group. We consider the topos $\mathbf{PSh}(M)$ of sets equipped with a right $M$-action, and we study the subtoposes that are of monoid type, i.e. the subtoposes that are again of the form…

We study classes of proper restriction semigroups determined by properties of partial actions underlying them. These properties include strongness, antistrongness, being defined by a homomorphism, being an action etc. Of particular interest…

$(1)$ Let $M\subset N$ be a commutative cancellative torsion-free and subintegral extension of monoids. Then we prove that in the case of ring extension $A[M]\subset A[N]$, the two notions, subintegral and weakly subintegral coincide…

The Abelian semigroup expansion is a powerful and simple method to derive new Lie algebras from a given one. Recently it was shown that the $S$-expansion of $\mathfrak{so}\left( 3,2\right) $ leads us to the Maxwell algebra $\mathcal{M}$. In…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring of dimension $d$ and $M$ be a commutative$,$ cancellative$,$ torsion-free monoid of rank $r$. Then $S$-$dim(R[M]) \leq max\{1, dim(R[M])-1 \} = max\{1, d+r-1 \}$. Further$,$ we define a class of…

We characterize, in terms of elementary properties, the abelian monoids which are direct limits of finite direct sums of monoids of the form $(Z/nZ)\sqcup\{0\}$ (where 0 is a new zero element), for positive integers $n$. The key properties…
