Combinatorics on Brauer-type semigroups

چکیده
The Brauer semigroup Bn of partitions of a 2n-element set into two-element subsets, can be generalized in various ways. For example we may consider arbitrary partitions to obtain the semigroup Cn. The visualization of elements of these semigroups as chips leads us to the Temperley-Lieb semigroup TLn and its analogue TLCn. We study combinatorial properties of these four semigroups. For example, we describe Green’s relations for these semigroups and we count the size of the various equivalence classes. We also study idempotents and the corresponding maximal subgroups in these semigroups, and give some formulas for calculating the number of idempotents. Finally we study regularity and inverse elements of our four semigroups.

On conjugation in some transformation and Brauer-type semigroups
We give, in terms of (generalized) cyclic types, a criterion for two elements of Tn, PT n, IS(N), Bn, PBn and Cn to be conjugate with respect to the conjugation defined as the transitive closure of the xy ∼ yx relation.
متن کاملCellularity of Diagram Algebras as Twisted Semigroup Algebras
The Temperley-Lieb and Brauer algebras and their cyclotomic analogues, as well as the partition algebra, are all examples of twisted semigroup algebras. We prove a general theorem about the cellularity of twisted semigroup algebras of regular semigroups. This theorem, which generalises a recent result of East about semigroup algebras of inverse semigroups, allows us to easily reproduce the cell...
متن کاملProper Actions of Groupoids on C-algebras
This thesis contains some results concerning groupoid dynamical systems and crossed products. We introduce the notion of a proper groupoid dynamical system and of its generalized fixed point algebra. We show that our notion of proper groupoid dynamical system extends both the notion of proper actions of groups on topological spaces and the notion of the proper group dynamical systems introduced...
متن کاملTHE BIRMAN–MURAKAMI–WENZL ALGEBRAS OF TYPE Dn
The Birman–Murakami–Wenzl algebra (BMW algebra) of type Dn is shown to be semisimple and free over Z[δ±1, l±1]/(m(1− δ)− (l− l−1)) of rank (2n + 1)n!! − (2n−1 + 1)n!, where n!! = 1 · 3 · · · (2n − 1). We also show it is a cellular algebra over suitable rings. The Brauer algebra of type Dn is a homomorphic ring image and is also semisimple and free of the same rank, but over the ring Z[δ±1]. A r...
متن کاملRational Points on Pencils of Conics and Quadrics with Many Degenerate Fibres
For any pencil of conics or higher-dimensional quadrics over Q, with all degenerate fibres defined over Q, we show that the Brauer–Manin obstruction controls weak approximation. The proof is based on the Hasse principle and weak approximation for some special intersections of quadrics over Q, which is a consequence of recent advances in additive combinatorics.
