Parallelizability of Lie monoids
A Lie monoid is a monoid, together with a structure of a smooth manifold (possibly with a boundary), such that the monoid multiplication is smooth.
If all left (or right) translations in a Lie monoid $...

Making the powerset into a topological monoid
Every monoid $X$ induces a monoid structure $\circledast$ on $\mathcal{P}(X)$ via
$$U\circledast V := \{uv\ |\ u\in U,v\in V\}.$$
Moreover, a morphism of monoids $f\colon X\to Y$ induces a morphism of ...

Closure of the inverse image under the projection map
Let $S$ be a subsemigroup of a semitopological semigroup $(T,+)$, let $e$ be an idempotent in $T\setminus S$ such that $e\in cl_T(S)$, let $\mathcal{E}$ be a subsemigroup of $S\times S$ such that $(e,...

Nonzero idempotents in compact semitopological semigroups with zero
Let $S$ be a compact semitopological semigroup. Then, $S$ contains minimal idempotents by Ellis' theorem.
Ellis' Theorem: In a compact left-topological (resp. right-topological) semigroup, every ...

Neighborhoods of idempotents in topological inverse semigroups
In a topological group, for any neighborhood $U$ of the origin, there is another such neighborhood with the property that $V.V\subseteq U.$ I conjecture a similar property for topological inverse ...

Interleaving in Viennot's Heaps models?
I am looking for past results on interleaving of heaps (in the sense of Viennot). For a very simplified example, suppose I have two pieces, (b1 a1 b1), and (b2 c2 b2), where the letter represents a ...

Why $\beta S$ is not a semigroup when $S$ is a (directed) partial semigroup?
Given a semigroup $(S, *)$ we extend the semigroup operation $*$ of $S$ to a operation $*$ on $\beta S$ (the set of ultrafilters on $S$) defined as
$$
\mathcal{U} * \mathcal{V} = \left\{ A \...
