It is proved that the periodic point submonoid of a free inverse monoid endomorphism is always finitely generated. Using Chomsky’s hierarchy of languages, we prove that the fixed point submonoid of an endomorphism of a free inverse monoid can be represented by a context-sensitive language but, in general, it cannot be represented by a context-free language.

An endomorphism φ of a free group is called primitivity preserving if φ takes every primitive element to another primitive. In this paper we prove that every primitivity preserving endomorphism of a free group of a finite rank n ≥ 3 is an automorphism.

Assuming the continuum hypothesis, we construct a pure subgroup G of the Baer-Specker group Z0 with the following properties. Every endomorphism of G differs from a scalar multiplication by an endomorphism of finite rank. Yet G has uncountably many homomorphisms to Z.

that is both analytic (as a mapping of complex manifolds) and algebraic: addition of points in E(C) corresponds to addition in C modulo the lattice L. This correspondence between lattices and elliptic curves over C is known as the Uniformization Theorem; we will spend this lecture and part of the next proving it. To make the correspondence explicit, we need to specify the map Φ from C/L and an ...

‎In this paper‎, ‎some properties of pre-monotone operators are proved‎. ‎It is shown that in a reflexive Banach space‎, ‎a full domain multivalued $sigma$-monotone operator with sequentially norm$times$weak$^*$ closed graph is norm$times$weak$^*$ upper semicontinuous‎. ‎The notion of $sigma$-convexity is introduced and the‎ ‎relations between the $sigma$-monotonicity and $sigma$-convexity is i...

Abstract Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Algebraic structures a specific type (e.g., algebras or coalgebras) on given vector space $W$ over can encoded as points in affine $U(W)$. This is equipped with $\textrm{GL} (W)$ action, and two define isomorphic if only they lie the same orbit. leads to study ring invariants $K[U(W)]^{\textrm{GL} (W)}$. We describe this ...

Endomorphism algebras gure prominently in group representation theory. F or example, if G is a nite group of Lie type, the representation theory of the endomorphism algebra End G Cj G B |sometimes known as the Hecke algebra over C of G|plays a central role in unraveling the complex unipotent c haracters on G 22, 77. Another example arises in the modular representation theory of the nite general...

In this paper we describe an algorithm that operates on the distances between features in the two related images and delivers a set of correspondences between them. The algorithm maximizes the inner product of two matrices, one of which is the desired 'pairing matrix' and the other a 'proximity matrix' with elements exp (-rij2/2 sigma 2), where rij is the distance between two features, one in e...

six sigma methodology is one of the most famous effective problem solving approaches that helps organizations to achieve their goals. despite the variety of its positive advantage, most companies have failed to implement six sigma successfully. the reason for this includes lack of the organizations attention to success or failure factors when implement six sigma projects. hence, while performin...
