There are two main constructions in classical descent theory: the category of algebras and the descent category, which are known to be examples of weighted bilimits. We give a formal approach to descent theory, employing formal consequences…

We prove that every perfect torsion theory for a ring $R$ is differential (in the sense of [P. E. Bland, Differential torsion theory, Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra 204 (2006) 1 -- 8]). In this case, we construct the extension of a…

Let $M$ be a matroid. We study the expansions of $M$ mainly to see how the combinatorial properties of $M$ and its expansions are related to each other. It is shown that $M$ is a graphic, binary or a transversal matroid if and only if an…

Building on the work of Gabriel Conant, we investigate the enumeration problems of finite distance monoids by applying the decomposition of Archimedean classes and studying their internal arithmetic progressions. Specifically, we first…

We apply the notion of relative adjoint functor to generalise closed monoidal categories. We define representations in such categories and give their relation with left actions of monoids. The translation of these representations under lax…

We develop both bilinear theory and commutator estimates in the context of entangled dilations, specifically Zygmund dilations $(x_1, x_2, x_3) \mapsto (\delta_1 x_1, \delta_2 x_2, \delta_1 \delta_2 x_3)$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We construct…

We show that every gammoid has special digraph representations, such that a representation of the dual of the gammoid may be easily obtained by reversing all arcs. In an informal sense, the duality notion of a poset applied to the digraph…

Inspired by the classical theory of modules over a monoid, we give a first account of the natural notion of module over a monad. The associated notion of morphism of left modules ("Linear" natural transformations) captures an important…

In this paper we show how the theory of monads can be used to deduce in a uniform manner several duality theorems involving categories of relations on one side and categories of algebras with homomorphisms preserving only some operations on…

We develop first steps in the study of factorizations of elements in ultraproducts of commutative cancellative monoids into irreducible elements. A complete characterization of the (multi-)sets of lengths in such objects is given. As…

Prolongations of a group extension can be studied in a more general situation that we call group extensions of the co-type of a crossed module. Cohomology classification of such extensions is obtained by applying the obstruction theory of…

We show that being finitely presentable and being finitely presentable with solvable word problem are quasi-isometry invariants of finitely generated left cancellative monoids. Our main tool is an elementary, but useful, geometric…

Let $G_1$ and $G_2$ be torsion groups. We prove that the monoids of product-one sequences over $G_1$ and over $G_2$ are isomorphic if and only if the groups $G_1$ and $G_2$ are isomorphic. This was known before for abelian groups.

The explicit constructions of minimal isometric, and minimal unitary dilations of an arbitrary linear pencil of operators $T(\lambda)=T_0+\lambda T_1$ consisting of contractions on a separable Hilbert space for $|\lambda |=1$, which…

We study the representation theory of the increasing monoid. Our results provide a fairly comprehensive picture of the representation category: for example, we describe the Grothendieck group (including the effective cone), classify…

In the present paper, a new type of mappings called perimetric contractions on $k$-polygons is introduced. These contractions can be viewed as a generalization of mappings that contracts perimeters of triangles. A fixed point theorem for…

The classical Eckmann-Hilton argument shows that two monoid structures on a set, such that one is a homomorphism for the other, coincide and, moreover, the resulting monoid is commutative. This argument immediately gives a proof of the…

We initiate the study of the expansion $\mathcal{S}(M)$ of a monoid $M$ obtained via the semidirect product of $M$ acting naturally on the left of its power set (regarded as a semilattice under union). We term this the `subset expansion' of…

A free resolution of free partially commutative monoids is constructed and with its help the homological dimension of these monoids is calculated.

We consider the torsion of homology groups of right pointed sets over a partially commutative monoid M(E,I)
