These lectures concern basic aspects of the theory of semigroups of endomorphisms of type I factors that relate to causal dynamics, dilation theory, and the problem of classifying E0-semigroups up to cocycle conjugacy. We give only a few proofs here; full details can be found in the author’s upcoming monograph Noncommutative Dynamics and E-semigroups, to be published in the Springer series Mono...

We consider dynamical semigroups with unbounded Kossakowski-Lindblad-Davies generators which are related to evolution of an open system with a tuned repeated harmonic perturbation. Our main result is the proof of existence of uniquely determined minimal trace-preserving strongly continuous dynamical semigroups on the space of density matrices. The corresponding dual W -dynamical system is shown...

As Jonathan Leech has pointed out, many natural examples of inverse semigroups are semilattice ordered under the natural partial order. But there are many interesting examples of semilattice ordered inverse semigroups in which the imposed partial order is not the natural one. In this talk we shall explore the structure and properties of these examples and some other questions related to semilat...

Morita equivalence is a widely used tool for rings with identity. (Two rings are said to be Morita equivalent if the categories of unitary modules over them are equivalent.) For monoids, this notion is not really useful: in most cases it reduces to isomorphism. As the theory of Morita equivalence could be developed for the more general case of rings with local units, and then for idempotent rin...

Using a variant of Schreier’s Theorem, and the theory of Green’s relations, we show how to reduce the computation of an arbitrary subsemigroup of a finite regular semigroup to that of certain associated subgroups. Examples of semigroups to which these results apply include many important classes: transformation semigroups, partial permutation semigroups and inverse semigroups, partition monoids...

We provide sufficient conditions for sums of two unbounded operators on a Banach space to be (pre-)generators of contraction semigroups. Necessary conditions and applications to positive semigroups on Banach lattices are also presented.

This paper concerns versions of the Trotter-Kato Theorem and the Chernoff Product Formula for C0-semigroups in the absence of stability. Applications to A-stable rational approximations of semigroups are presented.

In this paper we shall introduce the concept of prime and semiprime bi-ideals of ordered semigroups and we give characterizations of prime bi-ideal and regular of ordered semigroups. Mathematics Subject Classification: 06F05

Our aim in this paper is to introduce the notion of fuzzy soft near-subtraction semigroups and 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.

In this note some useful properties of strongly continuous two-parameter semigroups of operators are studied, an exponential formula for two-parameter semigroups of operators on Banach spaces is obtained and some applied examples of two-parameter dynamical systems are discussed
