Representations of Baer $\ast $-semigroups

compactifications and representations of transformation semigroups

this thesis deals essentially (but not from all aspects) with the extension of the notion of semigroup compactification and the construction of a general theory of semitopological nonaffine (affine) transformation semigroup compactifications. it determines those compactification which are universal with respect to some algebric or topological properties. as an application of the theory, it is i...

Daggers, Kernels, Baer *-semigroups, and Orthomodularity

We discuss issues related to constructing an orthomodular structure from an object in a category. In particular, we consider axiomatics related to Baer *-semigroups, partial semigroups, and various constructions involving dagger categories, kernels, and biproducts.

On Maximal Subsemigroups of Partial Baer-Levi Semigroups

Suppose that X is an infinite set with |X| ≥ q ≥ א0 and I X is the symmetric inverse semigroup defined on X. In 1984, Levi and Wood determined a class of maximal subsemigroups MA using certain subsets A of X of the Baer-Levi semigroup BL q {α ∈ I X : dom α X and |X \ Xα| q}. Later, in 1995, Hotzel showed that there are many other classes of maximal subsemigroups of BL q , but these are far more...

Complex Representations of Matrix Semigroups

Let M be a finite monoid of Lie type (these are the finite analogues of linear algebraic monoids) with group of units G . The multiplicative semigroup ^AfF), where F is a finite field, is a particular example. Using HarishChandra's theory of cuspidal representations of finite groups of Lie type, we show that every complex representation of M is completely reducible. Using this we characterize t...
