Aggregation and the Structure of Value

open access: yesNoûs, Volume 60, Issue 3, Page 619-644, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

Acylindrical visual splittings and the Tits alternative for Artin groups

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a visual splitting of an Artin group satisfying the conclusions of two well‐known conjectures to be acylindrical, and demonstrate how this can be used to provide a large class of novel examples of Artin groups that satisfy the Tits alternative.

On monoid graphs

open access: yes, 2022
22 pages, 6 figuresWe investigate Cayley graphs of finite semigroups and monoids. First, we look at semigroup digraphs, i.e., directed Cayley graphs of semigroups, and give a Sabidussi-type characterization in the case of monoids. We then correct a proof

Two-sided homological properties of special and one-relator monoids

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma
A monoid presentation is called special if the right-hand side of each defining relation is equal to 1. We prove results which relate the two-sided homological finiteness properties of a monoid defined by a special presentation with those of its group of

Convergence and combinatorics of the Reverse algorithm

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We study the Reverse algorithm, a multidimensional continued fraction algorithm, which is not unimodular. We show that the Reverse algorithm is ergodic and, by proving that its second Lyapunov exponent is negative, that it is a.e. exponentially convergent.

A Levi–Civita Equation on Monoids, Two Ways

open access: yesAnnales Mathematicae Silesianae, 2022
We consider the Levi–Civita equation f(xy)=g1(x)h1(y)+g2(x)h2(y)f\left( {xy} \right) = {g_1}\left( x \right){h_1}\left( y \right) + {g_2}\left( x \right){h_2}\left( y \right) for unknown functions f, g1, g2, h1, h2 : S → ℂ, where S is a monoid.

Endomorphisms and anti-endomorphisms of some finite groupoids

open access: yesЖурнал Средневолжского математического общества, 2022
In this paper, we study anti-endomorphisms of some finite groupoids. Previously, special groupoids $S(k, q)$ of order $k(1+k)$ with a generating set of $k$ elements were introduced.

Geometric inverse semigroup theory: a note on the Milnor–Schwarz lemma for inverse monoids

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We generalise the Milnor–Schwarz lemma to inverse monoids acting on presheaves of geodesic metric spaces. We provide two proofs of this fact: one only uses elementary techniques, inspired by the arguments for group actions on metric spaces; the other involves a version of the Vietoris–Rips complex, and builds on work of Chung–Martínez–Szakács.

Interpolation categories for conformal embeddings

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 133, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract In this paper, we give a diagrammatic description of the categories of modules coming from the conformal embeddings V(slN,N)⊂V(soN2−1,1)$\mathcal{V}({\mathfrak{sl}}_{N},N)\subset \mathcal{V}({\mathfrak{so}}_{{N}^{2}-1},1)$. A small variant of this construction (morally corresponding to a conformal embedding of glN${\mathfrak{gl}}_{N}$ level N ...

The Planar Rook Monoid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Pascal\u27s triangle is a very important structure in combinatorics: its entries, the binomial coefficients, answer a number of counting-related questions. I will define a set of functions, the Planar Rook monoid, whose structure is tied to Pascal\u27s
