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...

We demonstrate that the perforative phenomena shown to occur among simple amenable C∗-algebras by Villadsen and Toms can be realized within a dynamical framework. More specifically, we construct a minimal homeomorphism for which the K0 group of the crossed product fails to be weakly unperforated, and a minimal homeomorphism for which the crossed product has the same Elliott invariant as an AT-a...

our aim in this paper is to introduce the notion of fuzzy soft near-subtraction semigroupsand fuzzy soft ideals of near-subtraction semigroups. we discuss some important properties of these new fuzzy algebraic structure and investigate some examples and counter examples.

Two Divisibility Tests for Smarandache semigroups are given . Further, the notion of divisibility of elements in a semigroup is applied to characterize the Smarandache semigroups. Examples are provided for justification.

In this paper we propose a general recipe for calculating the automorphism groups of semigroups consisting of partial endomorphisms of relational structures with a single m-ary relation for any m ∈ N over a finite set. We use this recipe to determine the automorphism groups of the following semigroups: the full transformation semigroup, the partial transformation semigroup, and the symmetric in...

Let S be a locally compact topological foundation semigroup with identity and Ma(S) be its semigroup algebra. In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions to have abounded approximate identity in closed codimension one ideals of the semigroup algebra $M_a(S)$ of a locally compact topological foundationsemigroup with identity.

Let ~ C be a category whose objects are semigroups with topology and morphisms are closed semigroup relations, in particular, continuous homomorphisms. An object X of the category ~ C is called ~ C-closed if for each morphism Φ ⊂ X×Y in the category ~ C the image Φ(X) = {y ∈ Y : ∃x ∈ X (x, y) ∈ Φ} is closed in Y. In the paper we survey existing and new results on topological groups, which are ~...

We initiate the study of interval-valued fuzzy quasi-ideal of a semigroup. In Section 2, we list some basic definitions in the later sections. In Section 3, we investigate interval-valued fuzzy subsemigroups and in Section 4, we define intervalvalued fuzzy quasi-ideals and establish some of their basic properties. In Section 5, we obtain characterizations of regular and intraregular semigroups ...
