Variety of commutative semi group [closed]
V is a variety of commutative semi group satisfying the identity $x^2 = x^3$.

Do monoid homomorphisms from $X^X$ to a group factor through $\text{Sym}(X)$? [closed]
Let $X$ be a set and let $(X^X,\circ)$ denote the monoid of all maps $f: X\to X$, together with composition. Let $(\text{Sym}(X),\circ)$ be the group of all bijections from $X$ to itself.

Are there overwhelmingly more finite monoids than finite spaces? [closed]
A function $f:\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}\to\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$ overwhelms $g:\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}\to\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$ if for any $k\in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$ the inequality $f(n)\leq g(n+k)$ holds only for ...
