Download or read book Semigroups and Combinatorial Applications written by Gerard Lallement and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1979 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to present those parts of the theory of semigroups that are directly related to automata theory, algebraic linguistics, and combinatorics. Publications in these mathematical disciplines contained methods and results pertaining to the algebraic theory of semigroups, and this has contributed to considerable enrichment of the theory, enlargement of its scope, and improved its potential to become a major domain of algebra. Semigroup theory appears to provide a general framework for unifying and clarifying a number of topics in fields that at first sight appear unrelated. This book is intended as a textbook for graduate students in mathematics and computer science, and as a reference book for researchers interested in associative structures.
Download or read book Numerical Semigroups and Applications written by Abdallah Assi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an extended and revised version of "Numerical Semigroups with Applications," published by Springer as part of the RSME series. Like the first edition, it presents applications of numerical semigroups in Algebraic Geometry, Number Theory and Coding Theory. It starts by discussing the basic notions related to numerical semigroups and those needed to understand semigroups associated with irreducible meromorphic series. It then derives a series of applications in curves and factorization invariants. A new chapter is included, which offers a detailed review of ideals for numerical semigroups. Based on this new chapter, descriptions of the module of Kähler differentials for an algebroid curve and for a polynomial curve are provided. Moreover, the concept of tame degree has been included, and is viewed in relation to other factorization invariants appearing in the first edition. This content highlights new applications of numerical semigroups and their ideals, following in the spirit of the first edition.

This book was released on 2008-12-10 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this monograph is to give a self-contained introduction to the modern theory of finite transformation semigroups with a strong emphasis on concrete examples and combinatorial applications. It covers the following topics on the examples of the three classical finite transformation semigroups: transformations and semigroups, ideals and Green's relations, subsemigroups, congruences, endomorphisms, nilpotent subsemigroups, presentations, actions on sets, linear representations, cross-sections and variants. The book contains many exercises and historical comments and is directed first of all to both graduate and postgraduate students looking for an introduction to the theory of transformation semigroups, but also to tutors and researchers.

Download or read book Semigroups and Their Applications written by Simon M. Goberstein and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most papers published in this volume are based on lectures presented at the Chico Conference on Semigroups held on the Chico campus of the Cal ifornia State University on April 10-12, 1986. The conference was spon sored by the California State University, Chico in cooperation with the Engineering Computer Sciences Department of the Pacific Gas and Electric Company. The program included seven 50-minute addresses and seventeen 30-minute lectures. Speakers were invited by the organizing committee consisting of S. M. Goberstein and P. M. Higgins. The purpose of the conference was to bring together some of the leading researchers in the area of semigroup theory for a discussion of major recent developments in the field. The algebraic theory of semigroups is growing so rapidly and new important results are being produced at such a rate that the need for another meeting was well justified. It was hoped that the conference would help to disseminate new results more rapidly among those working in semi groups and related areas and that the exchange of ideas would stimulate research in the subject even further. These hopes were realized beyond all expectations.

Download or read book Geometry of the Semigroup Z 0 n and its Applications to Combinatorics Algebra and Differential Equations written by Sergey Chulkov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-10 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This vital contribution to the mathematical literature on combinatorics, algebra and differential equations develops two fundamental finiteness properties of the semigroup Z_(≥0)^n that elucidate key aspects of theories propounded by, among others, Hilbert and Kouchnirenko. The authors provide explanations for numerous results in the field that appear at first glance to be unrelated. The first finiteness property relates to the fact that Z_(≥0)^n can be represented in the form of a finite union of shifted n-dimensional octants, while the second asserts that any co-ideal of the semigroup can be represented as a finite, disjoint union of shifted co-ordinate octants. The applications of their work include proof that Hilbert’s implication that dimension d of the affine variety X equals the degree of Hilbert’s polynomial can be developed until its degree X equates to the leading coefficient of the Hilbert polynomial multiplied by d. The volume is a major forward step in this field.
Download or read book Semigroups written by K. P. Shum and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first International Conference on Semigroups and its Related Topics, held in Kunming, China, 1995, celebrated the establishment of the Institute of Pure Mathematics at Yunnan University, Kunming. The event attracted mathematicians from around the world, who contributed talks and papers on the new developments of semigroups and its applications. These included topics on algebraic semigroups, combinatorial semigroups, computer languages, codings, and universal algebras. Since the conference, the papers have been re-edited, and in some cases revised, and are now cummulated into this review volume, making it a lasting reference book on the development of Semigroup theory. Some survey articles written by experts in the field, and which were not presented at the conference, are also included in this book.
Download or read book Semigroups of Matrices written by Jan Okni?ski and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1998 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is concerned with the structure of linear semigroups, that is, subsemigroups of the multiplicative semigroup Mn(K) of n ? n matrices over a field K (or, more generally, skew linear semigroups ? if K is allowed to be a division ring) and its applications to certain problems on associative algebras, semigroups and linear representations. It is motivated by several recent developments in the area of linear semigroups and their applications. It summarizes the state of knowledge in this area, presenting the results for the first time in a unified form. The book's point of departure is a structure theorem, which allows the use of powerful techniques of linear groups. Certain aspects of a combinatorial nature, connections with the theory of linear representations and applications to various problems on associative algebras are also discussed.
