Do you know rings without involutions, auto-anti-isomorphics? In that case, what is the minimal example?
Do you know rings without involutions, but auto-anti-isomorphic (isomorphic to their opposite)? In that case, what is the minimal example?
If a ring has an involution f, then f is an anti-automorphism;...

The monoid of stably-free modules over integral group rings
Fix a torsion-free group G, let $M_G$ be the monoid of stably-free $\mathbb{Z}G$-modules under operation $\oplus$, the direct sum of modules.
In studying objects related to Wall’s D2 problem on CW-...

If $H$ is essentially equimorphic to $K$, then is $H$ atomic only if so is $K$?
I will first state my question, and then give all the relevant definitions.
Q. Let $H$ and $K$ be monoids, and assume $H$ is essentially equimorphic to $K$. Is it true that $H$ is atomic only if so ...

The "matrix direct sum" monoid modulo unitary equivalence
Given a commutative $*$-ring $(R,*)$, let $M(R,*)$ be the monoid whose elements are matrices over $R$ of all possible shapes and entries, including those that have $0$ columns or $0$ rows. Let the ...
