The semigroup $B_0$ is the only, up to isomorphism, 4-element subsemigroup of the 5-element Brandt semigroup $B_2$. Being an inverse semigroup, the semigroup $B_2$ can naturally be considered an additively idempotent semiring and $B_0$ is…

The 6-element Brandt monoid $B_2^1$ admits a unique addition under which it becomes an additively idempotent semiring. We show that this addition is a term operation of $B_2^1$ as an inverse semigroup. As a consequence, we exhibit an easy…

We study the Finite Basis Problem for finite additively idempotent semirings whose multiplicative reducts are inverse semigroups. In particular, we show that each additively idempotent semiring whose multiplicative reduct is a nontrivial…

Since for the classification of finite (congruence-)simple semirings it remains to classify the additively idempotent semirings, we progress on the characterization of finite simple additively idempotent semirings as semirings of…

The set of all subsets of any inverse semigroup forms an involution semiring under set-theoretical union and element-wise multiplication and inversion. We find structural conditions on a finite inverse semigroup guaranteeing that neither…

We first establish a sufficient condition for an additively idempotent semiring to be nonfinitely based. As applications, we exhibit several examples of additively idempotent semirings satisfying this condition, including a $4$-element…

For every semilattice $\mathcal{A}=(A,+)$, the set $\mathrm{End}(\mathcal{A})$ of its endomorphisms forms a semiring under pointwise addition and composition. We prove that that if $\mathcal{A}$ is finite, then the endomorphism semiring…

We present some general results implying nonfinite axiomatisability of many additively idempotent semirings with finitely based semigroup reducts. The smallest is a $3$-element commutative example, which we show also has \texttt{NP}-hard…

We study the finite basis problem for 4-element additively idempotent semirings whose additive reducts are semilattices of height 1. Up to isomorphism, there are 58 such algebras. We show that 49 of them are finitely based and the remaining…

We study the finite basis problem for $4$-element additively idempotent semirings whose additive reducts are quasi-antichains. Up to isomorphism, there are $93$ such algebras. We show that with the exception of the semiring $S_{(4, 435)}$,…

We investigate endomorphism semirings of a finite semilattice with one least element and one greatest element such that all the other elements form an antichain. We construct some new finite simple semirings. Keywords: endomorphism…

The authors [3] proved that the endomorphism semiring of a nontrivial semilattice is always subdirectly irreducible and described its monolith. Here we prove that the endomorphism semiring of a commutative inverse semigroup with at least…

For every group $G$, the set $\mathcal{P}(G)$ of its subsets forms a semiring under set-theoretical union $\cup$ and element-wise multiplication $\cdot$ and forms an involution semigroup under $\cdot$ and element-wise inversion ${}^{-1}$.…

For every semilattice $\mathcal{S}=(S,+)$, the set $\mathrm{End}(\mathcal{S})$ of its endomorphisms forms a semiring under point-wise addition and composition. We prove that the semiring of all endomorphisms of the 3-element chain has no…

We provide a complete classification of matrix semirings $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ over two-element additively idempotent semirings $S$ with respect to the finite basis property.Our main theorem shows that for every integer $n \geq 2$,the semiring…

We consider semigroup algorithmic problems in finitely generated metabelian groups. Our paper focuses on three decision problems introduced by Choffrut and Karhum\"{a}ki (2005): the Identity Problem (does a semigroup contain a neutral…

There are ten distinct two-element semirings up to isomorphism, denoted \( L_2, R_2, M_2, D_2, N_2, T_2, Z_2, W_2, Z_7 \), and \( Z_8 \) (see \cite{bk}). Among these, the multiplicative reductions of \( M_2, D_2, W_2 \), and \( Z_8 \) form…

We study the finite basis problem for $4$-element additively idempotent semirings whose additive reducts have two minimal elements and one coatom. Up to isomorphism, there are $112$ such algebras. We show that $106$ of them are finitely…

Much study has been done on semigroups which are unions of groups. There are several ways in which a union of groups can be made into a semigroup in which each of the component groups arises as subgroups of the constructed semigroup. An…

We establish two sufficient conditions for an additively idempotent semiring to be nonfinitely based. As applications, we prove that two specific $4$-element additively idempotent semirings, $S_{(4,545)}$ and $S_{(4,634)}$, whose additive…
