In this paper, we give some characterizations of intraregular semigroups by the properties of their (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy right ideals, (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy left ideals, (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy interior ideals, (∈,∈ ∨qk)fuzzy bi-ideals and (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy generalized bi-ideals. 2010 AMS Classification: 03E72, 20M12

We investigate the class of quasitrivial semigroups and provide various characterizations of the subclass of quasitrivial and commutative semigroups as well as the subclass of quasitrivial and order-preserving semigroups. We also determine explicitly the sizes of these classes when the semigroups are defined on finite sets. As a byproduct of these enumerations, we obtain several new integer seq...

This paper studies automatic structures for subsemigroups of Baumslag–Solitar semigroups (that is, semigroups presented by ⟨x, y | (yx, xy)⟩ where m,n ∈ N). A geometric argument (a rarity in the field of automatic semigroups) is used to show that if m > n, all of the finitely generated subsemigroups of this semigroup are [right-] automatic. If m < n, all of its finitely generated subsemigroups ...

In 1960, Nicolaas Kuiper showed that every surface can be tightly immersed in three-space except for the real projective plane and the Klein bottle, for which no such immersion exists, and the real projective plane with one handle, for which he could find neither a tight example nor a proof that one does not exist. It was not until more than 30 years later, in 1992, that François Haab proved th...

In this article we introduce the notion of Polyhedral Kähler manifolds, even dimensional polyhedral manifolds with unitary holonomy. We concentrate on the 4-dimensional case, prove that such manifolds are smooth complex surfaces, and classify the singularities of the metric. The singularities form a divisor and the residues of the flat connection on the complement of the divisor give us a syste...

In the present paper we give a partially negative answer to a conjecture of Ghahramani, Runde and Willis. We also discuss the derivation problem for both foundation semigroup algebras and Clifford semigroup algebras. In particular, we prove that if S is a topological Clifford semigroup for which Es is finite, then H1(M(S),M(S))={0}.

the main purpose of this paper is to establish a relation between universality of certain p-compactifications of a semitopological semigroup and their corresponding enveloping semigroups. in particular, we show that if we take p to be the property that the enveloping semigroup of a compactification of a semitopological semigroup s is left simple, a group, or the trivial singleton semigroup, the...

We show that the number of topologically different orthographic views of a polyhedral terrain with n edges is O(n 5 +~), and that the number of topologically different perspective views of such a terrain is O(nS+0, for any e > 0. Both bounds are almost tight in the worst case. The proofs are simple consequences of the recent almost-tight bounds of [11] on the complexity of lower envelopes in hi...

Let S be a locally compact foundation semigroup with identity and                          be its semigroup algebra. Let X be a weak*-closed left translation invariant subspace of    In this paper, we prove that  X  is invariantly  complemented in   if and  only if  the left ideal  of    has a bounded approximate identity. We also prove that a foundation semigroup with identity S is left amenab...

A Schmidt group is a non-nilpotent finite group in which each proper subgroup is nilpotent. Each Schmidt group G can be described by three parameters p, q and v, where p and q are different primes and v is a natural number, v ≥ 1. Denote by S the class of all Schmidt groups which have the same parameters p, q and v. It is shown in this paper that the class S can be characterized by the properti...
