Umbral Calculus and Cancellative Semigroup Algebras∗
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe some connections between three different fields: combinatorics (umbral calculus), functional analysis (linear functionals and operators) and harmonic analysis (convolutions on group-like structures). Systematic usage of cancellative semigroup, their convolution algebras, and tokens between them provides a common language for description of objects from these three fields.

On the combinatorics of Riordan arrays and Sheffer polynomials: monoids, operads and monops
We introduce a new algebraic construction, monop, that combines monoids (with respect to the product of species), and operads (monoids with respect to the substitution of species) in the same algebraic structure. By the use of properties of cancellative set-monops we construct a family of partially ordered sets whose prototypical examples are the Dowling lattices. They generalize the partition ...
متن کاملAlgebras and the Umbral Calculus ∗
We apply Baxter algebras to the study of the umbral calculus. We give a characterization of the umbral calculus in terms of Baxter algebra. This characterization leads to a natural generalization of the umbral calculus that include the classical umbral calculus in a family of λ-umbral calculi parameterized by λ in the base ring.

متن کاملConnes-amenability of bidual and weighted semigroup algebras
We investigate the notion of Connes-amenability, introduced by Runde in [14], for bidual algebras and weighted semigroup algebras. We provide some simplifications to the notion of a σWC-virtual diagonal, as introduced in [10], especially in the case of the bidual of an Arens regular Banach algebra. We apply these results to discrete, weighted, weakly cancellative semigroup algebras, showing tha...
متن کاملSemigroup C*-algebras and Amenability of Semigroups
We construct reduced and full semigroup C*-algebras for left cancellative semigroups. Our new construction covers particular cases already considered by A. Nica and also Toeplitz algebras attached to rings of integers in number fields due to J. Cuntz. Moreover, we show how (left) amenability of semigroups can be expressed in terms of these semigroup C*-algebras in analogy to the group case.
