The purpose of the Berkeley Workshop on Monoids was to give expository talks by the most qualified experts in the emerging main areas of monoid and semigroup theory including applications to theoretical computer science. This was supplemented with current research papers. The topics covered, in an accessible way for the mathematical and theoretical computer community, were: Kernels and expansions in semigroup theory; Implicit operations; Inverse monoids; Varieties of semigroups and universal algebra; Linear semigroups and monoids of Lie type; Monoids acting on tress; Synthesis theorem, regular semigroups, and applications; Type-II conjecture; Application to theoretical computer science and decision problems.

This volume contains contributions from leading experts in the rapidly developing field of semigroup theory. The subject, now some 60 years old, began by imitating group theory and ring theory, but quickly developed an impetus of its own, and the semigroup turned out to be the most useful algebraic object in theoretical computer science.

This work presents applications of numerical semigroups in Algebraic Geometry, Number Theory, and Coding Theory. Background on numerical semigroups is presented in the first two chapters, which introduce basic notation and fundamental concepts and irreducible numerical semigroups. The focus is in particular on free semigroups, which are irreducible; semigroups associated with planar curves are of this kind. The authors also introduce semigroups associated with irreducible meromorphic series, and show how these are used in order to present the properties of planar curves. Invariants of non-unique factorizations for numerical semigroups are also studied. These invariants are computationally accessible in this setting, and thus this monograph can be used as an introduction to Factorization Theory. Since factorizations and divisibility are strongly connected, the authors show some applications to AG Codes in the final section. The book will be of value for undergraduate students (especially those at a higher level) and also for researchers wishing to focus on the state of art in numerical semigroups research.

The purpose of this book is to present those parts of the theory of semigroups that are directly related to automata theory, algebraic linguistics, and combinatorics. Publications in these mathematical disciplines contained methods and results pertaining to the algebraic theory of semigroups, and this has contributed to considerable enrichment of the theory, enlargement of its scope, and improved its potential to become a major domain of algebra. Semigroup theory appears to provide a general framework for unifying and clarifying a number of topics in fields that at first sight appear unrelated. This book is intended as a textbook for graduate students in mathematics and computer science, and as a reference book for researchers interested in associative structures.

This book is concerned with the structure of linear semigroups, that is, subsemigroups of the multiplicative semigroup Mn(K) of n ? n matrices over a field K (or, more generally, skew linear semigroups ? if K is allowed to be a division ring) and its applications to certain problems on associative algebras, semigroups and linear representations. It is motivated by several recent developments in the area of linear semigroups and their applications. It summarizes the state of knowledge in this area, presenting the results for the first time in a unified form. The book's point of departure is a structure theorem, which allows the use of powerful techniques of linear groups. Certain aspects of a combinatorial nature, connections with the theory of linear representations and applications to various problems on associative algebras are also discussed.
