Monoids with tests and the algebra of possibly non-halting programs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We study the algebraic theory of computable functions, which can be viewed as arising from possibly non-halting computer programs or algorithms, acting on some state space, equipped with operations of composition, if-then-else and while-do defined in ...

The Finite Basis Problem for Kiselman Monoids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In an earlier paper, the second-named author has described the identities holding in the so-called Catalan monoids. Here we extend this description to a certain family of Hecke--Kiselman monoids including the Kiselman monoids $\mathcal{K}_n$.

On the insertion of n-powers

open access: yes, 2019
In algebraic terms, the insertion of $n$-powers in words may be modelled at the language level by considering the pseudovariety of ordered monoids defined by the inequality $1\le x^n$.

Non-commutative Stone duality: inverse semigroups, topological groupoids and C*-algebras [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We study a non-commutative generalization of Stone duality that connects a class of inverse semigroups, called Boolean inverse $\wedge$-semigroups, with a class of topological groupoids, called Hausdorff Boolean groupoids. Much of the paper is given over

Tensor products and regularity properties of Cuntz semigroups

open access: yes, 2014
The Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra is an important invariant in the structure and classification theory of C*-algebras. It captures more information than K-theory but is often more delicate to handle.

Invariant means on Boolean inverse monoids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The classical theory of invariant means, which plays an important role in the theory of paradoxical decompositions, is based upon what are usually termed `pseudogroups'. Such pseudogroups are in fact concrete examples of the Boolean inverse monoids which

Reaching the minimum ideal in a finite semigroup [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We introduce the depth parameters of a finite semigroup, which measure how hard it is to produce an element in the minimum ideal when we consider generating sets satisfying some minimality conditions.

Is every product system concrete?

open access: yesTransactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 12, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract Is every product system of Hilbert spaces over a semigroup P$P$ concrete, that is, isomorphic to the product system of an E0$E_0$‐semigroup over P$P$? The answer is no if P$P$ is discrete, cancellative and does not embed in a group. However, we show that the answer is yes for a reasonable class of semigroups.

Quivers of monoids with basic algebras

open access: yes, 2011
We compute the quiver of any monoid that has a basic algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. More generally, we reduce the computation of the quiver over a splitting field of a class of monoids that we term rectangular monoids (

The biHecke monoid of a finite Coxeter group and its representations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
For any finite Coxeter group W, we introduce two new objects: its cutting poset and its biHecke monoid. The cutting poset, constructed using a generalization of the notion of blocks in permutation matrices, almost forms a lattice on W.
