A variety of algebras is called limit if it is non-finitely based but all its proper subvarieties are finitely based. We present a new pair of limit varieties of monoids and show that together with the five limit varieties of monoids…
Finite monoids that generate monoid varieties with uncountably many subvarieties seem rare, and surprisingly, no finite monoid is known to generate a monoid variety with countably infinitely many subvarieties. In the present article, it is…
A variety of algebras is called Cross if it is finitely based, finitely generated, and has finitely many subvarieties. In present article, we classify all Cross varieties of aperiodic monoids with commuting idempotents.
A variety is finitely universal if its lattice of subvarieties contains an isomorphic copy of every finite lattice. We show that the 6-element Brandt monoid generates a finitely universal variety of monoids and, by the previous results, it…
A limit variety is a variety that is minimal with respect to being non-finitely based. Since the turn of the millennium, much attention has been given to the classification of limit varieties of aperiodic monoids. Seven explicit examples…
A variety is finitely universal if its lattice of subvarieties contains an isomorphic copy of every finite lattice. Examples of finitely universal varieties of semigroups have been available since the early 1970s, but it is unknown if there…
A monoid is aperiodic if all its subgroups are trivial. We completely classify all varieties of aperiodic monoids whose subvariety lattice is distributive.
Jackson and Lee proved that certain six-element monoid generates a hereditarily finitely based variety $\mathbb E^1$ whose lattice of subvarieties contains an infinite ascending chain. We identify syntactic monoids which generate finitely…
A variety of universal algebras is called limit if it is non-finitely based but all its proper subvarieties are finitely based. Until recently, only two explicit examples of limit varieties of monoids, constructed by Jackson, were known.…
The Jones unknot conjecture states that the Jones polynomial distinguishes the unknot from nontrivial knots. We prove it for knots up to 23 crossings.
It is unknown so far, whether the lattice of all varieties of monoids satisfies some non-trivial identity. The objective of this note is to give the negative answer to this question. Namely, we prove that any finite lattice is a homomorphic…
An algebraic variety $X$ is called rigid if there is no non-trivial action on $X$ of the additive group of the base field. A trinomial variety is an affine variety that is given by a set of equations consisting of polynomials with three…

We completely determine all varieties of monoids on whose free objects all fully invariant congruences or all fully invariant congruences contained in the least semilattice congruence permute. Along the way, we find several new monoid…
The join of two varieties is the smallest variety containing both. In finite semigroup theory, the varieties of R-trivial and L-trivial monoids are two of the most prominent classes of finite monoids. Their join is known to be decidable due…
We show that for a Frobenius split variety, there are only finitely many closed subvarieties which are compatibly-split.
A variety of universal algebras is called a chain variety if its subvariety lattice is a chain. Non-group chain varieties of semigroups were completely classified by Sukhanov in 1982. Here we completely determine non-group chain varieties…
This is the first part of a series of three strongly related papers in which three equivalent structures are studied: - internal categories in categories of monoids; defined in terms of pullbacks relative to a chosen class of spans -…
We show that limit varieties of monoids recently discovered by Gusev, Zhang and Luo and their subvarieties are generated by monoids of the form $M_\tau(W)$ for certain congruences $\tau$ on the free monoid. The construction $M_\tau(W)$ is a…
A link is almost alternating if it is non-alternating and has a diagram that can be transformed into an alternating diagram via one crossing change. We give formulas for the first two and last two potential coefficients of the Jones…
