Directed colimits of free commutative semigroups

Directed prime graph of non-commutative ring

Prime graph of a ring R is a graph whose vertex set is the whole set R any any two elements $x$ and $y$ of $R$ are adjacent in the graph if and only if $xRy = 0$ or $yRx = 0$.  Prime graph of a ring is denoted by $PG(R)$. Directed prime graphs for non-commutative rings and connectivity in the graph are studied in the present paper. The diameter and girth of this graph are also studied in the pa...

Varieties of Commutative Semigroups

In this paper, we describe all equational theories of commutative semigroups in terms of certain well-quasi-orderings on the set of finite sequences of nonnegative integers. This description yields many old and new results on varieties of commutative semigroups. In particular, we obtain also a description of the lattice of varieties of commutative semigroups, and we give an explicit uniform sol...

Free Partially Commutative Semigroups in Band Varieties 3

Free profinite locally idempotent and locally commutative semigroups

This paper is concerned with the structure of semigroups of implicit operations on the pseudovariety LSl of finite locally idempotent and locally commutative semigroups. We depart from a general result of Almeida and Weil to give two descriptions of these semigroups: the first in terms of infinite words, and the second in terms of infinite and bi-infinite words. We then derive some applications...

Totally Ordered Commutative Semigroups

Let 5( + , < ) be a system consisting of a set S endowed with an associative binary operation + and a total ( = linear = simple) order relation < . The composition + and the relation < may be connected by either or both of the following conditions. MC (Monotone Condition). If a and b are elements of 5 such that ax+y ...
