In this paper we extend some set theoretic concepts of numerical semigroups for arbitrary sub-semigroups of natural numbers. Then we characterized gapsets which leads to a more efficient computational approach towards numerical semigroups…
We study a family of finitely generated residually finite groups. These groups are doubles $F_2*_H F_2$ of a rank-$2$ free group $F_2$ along an infinitely generated subgroup $H$. Varying $H$ yields uncountably many groups up to isomorphism.
Uninorms play a prominent role both in the theory and the applications of Aggregations and Fuzzy Logic. In this paper the class of group-like uninorms is introduced and characterized. First, two variants of a general construction -- called…
It has been shown recently that monomial maps in a large class respecting the action of the infinite symmetric group have, up to symmetry, finitely generated kernels. We study the simplest nontrivial family in this class: the maps given by…
We study the geometry of a class of group extensions, containing permutational wreath products, which we call "permutational extensions". We construct for all natural number k a torsion group with growth function asymptotically…
Group theory is a particularly fertile field for the design of practical algorithms. Algorithms have been developed across the various branches of the subject and they find wide application. Because of its relative maturity, computational…
Various descending chains of subgroups of a finite permutation group can be used to define a sequence of `basic' permutation groups that are analogues of composition factors for abstract finite groups. Primitive groups have been the…
Based on the Chernoff approximation, we provide a general approximation result for convex monotone semigroups which are continuous w.r.t. the mixed topology on suitable spaces of continuous functions. Starting with a family $(I(t))_{t\geq…
In this paper we use techniques from convex projective geometry to produce many new examples of thin subgroups of lattices in special linear groups that are isomorphic to the fundamental groups of finite volume hyperbolic manifolds. More…
Extensions of previous linear regression models for interval data are presented. A more flexible simple linear model is formalized. The new model may express cross-relationships between mid-points and spreads of the interval data in a…
This note shows how iteration of the standard process of adjoining identities and zeros to semigroups gives rise naturally to the lexicographical ordering on the additive semigroup of n-tuples of nonnegative integers and n-tuples of…
For finite-dimensional linear semigroups which leave a proper cone invariant it is shown that irreducibility with respect to the cone implies the existence of an extremal norm. In case the cone is simplicial a similar statement applies to…
In this paper, we carry out a fairly comprehensive study of special classes of numerical semigroups, and their tangent cones, generated by the sequence of partial sums of an arithmetic progression, in embedding dimension $5$. These classes…
A subset S of a group G invariably generates G if G = <s^(g(s)) | s in S> for each choice of g(s) in G, s in S. In this paper we study invariable generation of infinite groups, with emphasis on linear groups. Our main result shows that a…
We construct an uncountable family of 3-generated residually finite just-infinite groups with isomorphic profinite completions. We also show that word growth rate is not a profinite property.
The recent proof of the Boij-Soederberg conjectures reveals new structure about Betti diagrams of modules, giving a complete description of the cone of Betti diagrams. We begin to expand on this new structure by investigating the semigroup…
This work introduces a new kind of semigroup of $\N^p$ called proportionally modular affine semigroup. These semigroups are defined by modular Diophantine inequalities and they are a generalization of proportionally modular numerical…
We describe new families of Eliahou semigroups, encompassing previous families described by Delgado, Eliahou and Fromentin, and Bras-Amor\'os. A crucial parameter is a Farey interval associated to the semigroup. We show that these…
We use a version of the Trotter-Kato approximation theorem for strongly continuous semigroups in order to study flows on growing networks. For that reason we use the abstract notion of direct limits in the sense of category theory.
We introduce several new constructions of finite posets with the number of linear extensions given by generalized continued fractions. We apply our results to the problem of the minimum number of elements needed for a poset with a given…
