Given a semigroup $S$, a diagonal subsemigroup $\rho$ is defined to be a reflexive and compatible relation on $S$, i.e. a subsemigroup of the direct square $S\times S$ containing the diagonal $\{ (s,s)\colon s\in S\}$. When $S$ is finite,…

Let $\Gamma^{+}$ be the positive cone of a totally ordered abelian discrete group $\Gamma$, and $\alpha$ an action of $\Gamma^{+}$ by extendible endomorphisms of a $C^*$-algebra $A$. We prove that the partial-isometric crossed product…

For $n\ge 5$, we prove that every $n\times n$ matrix $M=(a_{i,j})$ with entries in $\{-1,1\}$ and absolute discrepancy $|\mathrm{disc}(M)|=|\sum a_{i,j}|\le n$ contains a zero-sum square except for the split matrix (up to symmetries). Here,…

Let $ \mathcal{I}_n$ be the symmetric inverse semigroup on $X_n = \{1, 2, \ldots , n\}$. Let $\mathcal{OCI}_n$ be the subsemigroup of $\mathcal{I}_n$ consisting of all order-preserving injective partial contraction mappings, and let…

For a group $G$, the generating graph $\Gamma(G)$ is defined as the graph with the vertex set $G$, and any two distinct vertices of $\Gamma(G)$ are adjacent if they generate $G$. In this paper, we study the generating graph of $D_n,$ where…

We consider Hamilton cycles in the random digraph $D_{n,m}$ where the orientation of edges follows a pattern other than the trivial orientation in which the edges are oriented in the same direction as we traverse the cycle. We show that if…

Our aim is to show the way we pass from the results of ordered semigroups (or semigroups) to ordered $\Gamma$-semigroups (or $\Gamma$-semigroups). The results of this note have been transferred from ordered semigroups. The concept of…

We construct a neutrino mass matrix $M_{\nu}$ via a seesaw mechanism whith perturbed invariant under a cyclic permutation by introducing one parameter $\delta$ into the diagonal elements of $M_{\nu}$ with assumption that trace of the…

We show that the vertices and edges of a $d$-dimensional grid graph $G=(V,E)$ ($d\geqslant 2$) can be labeled with the integers from $\{1,\ldots,\lvert V\rvert\}$ and $\{1,\ldots,\lvert E\rvert\}$, respectively, in such a way that for every…

For $n \in \mathbb{N}$, let $[n] = \{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$ be an $n$ - element set. As usual, we denote by $I_n$ the symmetric inverse semigroup on $[n]$, i.e. the partial one-to-one transformation semigroup on $[n]$ under composition of…

General methods for the construction of magic squares of any order have been searched for centuries. There have been several standard strategies for this purpose, such as the knight movement, or the construction of bordered magic squares,…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countable group and $\mathrm{Sub}(\Gamma)$ its Chabauty space, namely the compact $\Gamma$-space consisting of all subgroups of $\Gamma$. We call a subgroup $\Delta \in \mathrm{Sub}(\Gamma)$ a boomerang subgroup if for…

In recent work, M. Schneider and the first author studied a curious class of integer partitions called "sequentially congruent" partitions: the $m$th part is congruent to the $(m+1)$th part modulo $m$, with the smallest part congruent to…

According to the O'Nan--Scott Theorem, a finite primitive permutation group either preserves a structure of one of three types (affine space, Cartesian lattice, or diagonal semilattice), or is almost simple. However, diagonal groups are a…

The iterative method of Sinkhorn allows, starting from an arbitrary real matrix with non-negative entries, to find a so-called 'scaled matrix' which is doubly stochastic, i.e. a matrix with all entries in the interval (0, 1) and with all…

A permutation is said to be a square if it can be obtained by shuffling two order-isomorphic patterns. The definition is intended to be the natural counterpart to the ordinary shuffle of words and languages. In this paper, we tackle the…

We show that any nonsingular (real or complex) square matrix can be factorized into a product of at most three normal matrices, one of which is unitary, another selfadjoint with eigenvalues in the open right half-plane, and the third one is…

We show a matrix decomposition of flavor mass matrix for Dirac neutrinos $M$ by sum as $M=M'+M^0$ where $M'$ obeys the feature of the magic square and $M^0$ is three-zero texture. The favorable three-zero textures in the context of magic…

In this article we show that the semigroup operation of a strictly linearly ordered semigroup on a real interval is automatically continuous if each element of the semigroup admits a square root. Hence, by a result of Acz\'el, such a…

An alternating sign matrix is a square matrix with entries 1, 0 and -1 such that the sum of the entries in each row and each column is equal to 1 and the nonzero entries alternate in sign along each row and each column. To some of the…
