Poset topology and homological invariants of algebras arising in algebraic combinatorics
We present a beautiful interplay between combinatorial topology and
homological algebra for a class of monoids that arise naturally in algebraic
combinatorics. We explore several applications of this interplay. For instance,
we provide a new interpretation of the Leray number of a clique complex in
terms of non-commutative algebra.

Embedding a -invariant code into a complete one
Let A be a finite or countable alphabet and let be a literal
(anti-)automorphism onto A * (by definition, such a correspondence is
determinated by a permutation of the alphabet). This paper deals with sets
which are invariant under (-invariant for short) that is,
languages L such that (L) is a subset of L.We establish an extension
of the famous defect theorem. With regards to the so-called notion of
completeness, we provide a series of examples of finite complete
-invariant codes. Moreover, we establish a formula which allows to
embed any non-complete -invariant code into a complete one. As a
consequence, in the family of the so-called thin --invariant codes,
maximality and completeness are two equivalent notions.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1705.0556
Invariance: a Theoretical Approach for Coding Sets of Words Modulo Literal (Anti)Morphisms
Let be a finite or countable alphabet and let be literal
(anti)morphism onto (by definition, such a correspondence is determinated
by a permutation of the alphabet). This paper deals with sets which are
invariant under (-invariant for short).We establish an
extension of the famous defect theorem. Moreover, we prove that for the
so-called thin -invariant codes, maximality and completeness are two
equivalent notions. We prove that a similar property holds in the framework of
some special families of -invariant codes such as prefix (bifix) codes,
codes with a finite deciphering delay, uniformly synchronized codes and
circular codes. For a special class of involutive antimorphisms, we prove that
any regular -invariant code may be embedded into a complete one.Comment: To appear in Acts of WORDS 201
Completing circular codes in regular submonoids
AbstractLet M be an arbitrary submonoid of the free monoid A∗, and let X⊆M be a variable length code (for short a code). X is weakly M-complete iff any word in M is a factor of some word in X∗ [J. Néraud, C. Selmi, Free monoid theory: Maximality and completeness in arbitrary submonoids, Internat. J. Algebra Comput. 13 (5) (2003) 507–516]. Given a regular submonoid M, and given an arbitrary code X⊆M, we are interested in the existence of a weakly M-complete code Xˆ that contains X. Actually, in [J. Néraud, Completing a code in a regular submonoid, in: Acts of MCU’2004, Lect. Notes Comput. Sci. 3354 (2005) 281–291; J. Néraud, Completing a code in a submonoid of finite rank, Fund. Inform. 74 (2006) 549–562], by presenting a general formula, we have established that, in any case, such a code Xˆ exists. In the present paper, we prove that any regular circular code X⊆M may be embedded into a weakly M-complete one iff the minimal automaton with behavior M has a synchronizing word. As a consequence of our result an extension of the famous theorem of Schützenberger is stated for regular circular codes in the framework of regular submonoids. We study also the behaviour of the subclass of uniformly synchronous codes in connection with these questions
Quivers of monoids with basic algebras
We compute the quiver of any monoid that has a basic algebra over an
algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. More generally, we reduce
the computation of the quiver over a splitting field of a class of monoids that
we term rectangular monoids (in the semigroup theory literature the class is
known as ) to representation theoretic computations for group
algebras of maximal subgroups. Hence in good characteristic for the maximal
subgroups, this gives an essentially complete computation. Since groups are
examples of rectangular monoids, we cannot hope to do better than this.
For the subclass of -trivial monoids, we also provide a semigroup
theoretic description of the projective indecomposables and compute the Cartan
matrix.Comment: Minor corrections and improvements to exposition were made. Some
theorem statements were simplified. Also we made a language change. Several
of our results are more naturally expressed using the language of Karoubi
envelopes and irreducible morphisms. There are no substantial changes in
actual result
