Cohomology of commutative monoid acting on module
I have a some naive questions about how to define the cohomology of a commutative monoid.
One way to express the cohomology of a group $G$ with coefficients in a module $A$ is as $\text{Ext}^i_{\...

How exactly to adapt Brown's collapse from monoids to algebras?
In The Geometry of Rewriting Systems (Springerlink behind paywall), Kenneth Brown describes a method to collapse the bar resolution of a monoid. Roughly:
Given a simplicial set $X$ equipped with a ...

What is the normalized complex of a simplicial set with a monoid action?
This question is a follow up to this question I posted on Math.SE. I will make this question self-contained, though.
In a certain point on the paper The Geometry of Rewriting Systems, Kenneth Brown ...

QF-3 monoid algebras
A finite dimensional algebra $A$ is called QF-3 in case the injective envelope of the regular module is projective. For example all Frobenius algebras are QF-3.
Given a monoid algebra $kG$ of a finite ...

Derived tensor products and Tor of commutative monoids
Two commutative monoids $M,N$ have a tensor product $M\otimes N$ satisfying the universal property that there is a tensor-Hom adjunction for any other commutative monoid $L$: $$\text{Hom}(M\otimes N,L)...

Projective resolutions for commutative monoids
What is the right notion of a projective resolution of a commutative monoid?
The category Mon of commutative monoids has plenty of projective (and even free) objects. Indeed, for every set $X$ one ...

flat maps of monoids which are not localizations
It is well known that a localization $S^{-1}R$ of a commutative ring $R$ is flat as a $R$-module.
Rather, I am looking for extensions of rings which share certain properties of localizations, like ...

Homological algebra for commutative monoids?
Homological algebra for abelian groups is a standard tool in many fields of mathematics. How much carries over to the setting of commutative monoids (with unit)? It seems like there is a notion of ...
