–a notion of amenability for topological semigroups is introduced. a topological semigroup s iscalled johnson amenable if for every banach s -bimodule e , every bounded crossed homomorphism froms to e* is principal. in this paper it is shown that a discrete semigroup s is johnson amenable if and only if1(s) is an amenable banach algebra. also, we show that if a topological semigroup s is johns...

The problem due to the statically indeterminate contact forces arising in indeterminate frictional enveloping grasps is addressed in the paper. First of all, we show that the statical model for the contact forces is incomplete in the sense that the mathematical frictional forces may have an infeasible component. To resolve this infeasibility, we directly derive the enveloping grasp infeasibilit...

The notion of a non-associative universal enveloping algebra for a Lie triple system arises when Lie triple systems are considered as Bol algebras (more generally, Sabinin algebras). In this paper a new construction for these universal enveloping algebras is given, and their properties are studied. It is shown that universal enveloping algebras of Lie triple systems have surprisingly few ideals...

To practically apply vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) to buildings or home appliances, VIPs have demanded long-term lifespan with outstanding insulation performance. Service lives of VIPs enveloped with Al-foil and three-layer Al-metallized envelope are calculated. For Al-foil envelope, the service life is longer but edge conduction is too large compared with the Al-metallized envelope. To incre...

In this paper, we give some characterizations of intraregular semigroups by the properties of their (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy right ideals, (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy left ideals, (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy interior ideals, (∈,∈ ∨qk)fuzzy bi-ideals and (∈,∈ ∨qk)-fuzzy generalized bi-ideals. 2010 AMS Classification: 03E72, 20M12

We investigate the class of quasitrivial semigroups and provide various characterizations of the subclass of quasitrivial and commutative semigroups as well as the subclass of quasitrivial and order-preserving semigroups. We also determine explicitly the sizes of these classes when the semigroups are defined on finite sets. As a byproduct of these enumerations, we obtain several new integer seq...

This paper studies automatic structures for subsemigroups of Baumslag–Solitar semigroups (that is, semigroups presented by ⟨x, y | (yx, xy)⟩ where m,n ∈ N). A geometric argument (a rarity in the field of automatic semigroups) is used to show that if m > n, all of the finitely generated subsemigroups of this semigroup are [right-] automatic. If m < n, all of its finitely generated subsemigroups ...

We study the problem of embedding compact subsets of Rn into C1 submanifolds of minimal dimension. In [4], we define a generalized tangent space TxA suitable for a general compact subset A of Rn and we prove that A may be locally embedded into a C1 manifold of dimension dim(TxA). This result leads naturally to the global conjecture that for a compact subset A of Rn, there exists a C1 manifold M...

In the present paper we give a partially negative answer to a conjecture of Ghahramani, Runde and Willis. We also discuss the derivation problem for both foundation semigroup algebras and Clifford semigroup algebras. In particular, we prove that if S is a topological Clifford semigroup for which Es is finite, then H1(M(S),M(S))={0}.
