We give examples of atomic integral domains satisfying each of the eight logically possible combinations of existence or non-existence of the following kinds of elements: 1) primes, 2) absolutely irreducible elements that are not prime, and…

In algebra, atomicity is the study of divisibility by and factorizations into atoms (also called irreducibles). In one side of the spectrum of atomicity we find the antimatter algebraic structures, inside which there are no atoms and,…

It has been a well-known fact since Euclid's time that there exist infinitely many rational primes. Two natural questions arise: In which other rings, sufficiently similar to the integers, are there infinitely many irreducible elements? Is…

Let $M$ be a cancellative and commutative monoid. A non-invertible element of $M$ is called an atom (or irreducible element) if it cannot be factored into two non-invertible elements, while an atom $a$ of $M$ is called strong if $a^n$ has a…

The atoms of a regular language are non-empty intersections of complemented and uncomplemented quotients of the language. Tight upper bounds on the number of atoms of a language and on the quotient complexities of atoms are known. We…

In this paper, we study arbitrary (not necessarily associative) 3-dimensional algebras. Such an algebra A is determined by a basis and the corresponding multiplication table, which is specified by 27 structure constants. We describe all…

A. Tarski proved that the m-generated free algebra of $\mathrm{CA}_{\alpha}$, the class of cylindric algebras of dimension $\alpha$, contains exactly $2^m$ zero-dimensional atoms, when $m\ge 1$ is a finite cardinal and $\alpha$ is an…

Denote the set of algebraic numbers as $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ and the set of algebraic integers as $\overline{\mathbb{Z}}$. For $\gamma\in\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, consider its irreducible polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$,…

We extend the theory of atomized semilattices to the infinite setting. We show that it is well-defined and that every semilattice is atomizable. We also study atom redundancy, focusing on complete and finitely generated semilattices and…

In [Math. Proc. Cambridge Philos. Soc. 64 (1968), 251-264], P.M. Cohn famously claimed that a commutative domain is atomic if and only if it satisfies the ascending chain condition on principal ideals (ACCP). Some years later, a…

We prove that for every nonempty set $\Sigma$ of integers bigger than $1$, which has at most three elements, there exists a numerical semigroup $T$ and an element $x$ of $T$ such that a natural number $n$ is the number of atoms in a…

In the first part of this paper, we establish a variation of a recent result by Bienvenu and Geroldinger on the (almost) non-existence of absolute irreducibles in (restricted) power monoids of numerical monoids: we argue the (almost)…

Consider the set $M_{a,b} = \{n \in \mathbb Z_{\ge 1} : n \equiv a \bmod b\} \cup \{1\}$ for $a, b \in \mathbb Z_{\ge 1}$. If $a^2 \equiv a \bmod b$, then $M_{a,b}$ is closed under multiplication and known as an arithmetic congruence monoid…

Let $R$ be an infinite Dedekind domain with at most finitely many units, and let $K$ denote its field of fractions. We prove the following statement. If $L/K$ is a finite Galois extension of fields and $\mathcal{O}$ is the integral closure…

In this paper we find exact formulas for the numbers of partitions and compositions of an element into $m$ parts over a finite field, i.e. we find the number of nonzero solutions of the equation $x_1+x_2+...+x_m=z$ over a finite field when…

We show that the molecular relativistic Thomas-Fermi-Weizs\"acker functional consisting of atoms of atomic numbers $Z_1,...,Z_k$ has a minimizer, if the particle number $N$ is constrained to a number less or equal to the total nuclear…

As the main achievement of the paper, we construct a three-generated, 2-distributive, atomless lattice that is not finitely presented. Also, the paper contains the following three observations. First, every coatomless three-generated…

Let $(R,M)$ be a quasilocal integral domain. We investigate the set of irreducible elements (atoms) of $R$. Special attention is given to the set of atoms in $M \backslash M^2$ and to the existence of atoms in $M^2$. While our main interest…

We recast Euclid's proof of the infinitude of prime numbers as a Euclidean Criterion for a domain to have infinitely many atoms. We make connections with Furstenberg's "topological" proof of the infinitude of prime numbers and show that our…

A cancellative commutative monoid is atomic if every non-invertible element factors into irreducibles. Under certain mild conditions on a positive algebraic number $\alpha$, the additive monoid $M_\alpha$ of the evaluation semiring…
