In this paper, A denotes a ring with an identity element 1, and B a subring of A containing 1 such that B satisfies the left and right minimum conditions, and A is a finitely generated left and right B-module. The identity element 1 is required to act as the identity operator on all modules which we shall consider. For any left B-module V, there is a standard construction of a left A -module which is, roughly speaking, the smallest A -module containing V.

We shall use the following notation throughout:R = Dedekind ring (5).u = multiplicative group of units in R.h = class number of R.K = quotient field of R.p = prime ideal in R.Rp = ring of p-adic integers in K.We assume that h is finite, and that for each prime ideal p, the index (R:p) is finite.Let A be a finite-dimensional separable algebra over K, with an identity element e (4, p. 115). Let G be an R-ordev in A, that is, G is a subring of A satisfying(i)e ∈ G,(ii)G contains a i∈-basis of A,(iii)G is a finitely-generated i?-module.By a G-module we shall mean a left G-module which is a finitely-generated torsion-free i∈-module, on which e acts as identity operator.

A monoid in which every principal right ideal is projective is called a right PP monoid. Special classes of such monoids have been investigated in (2), (3), (4) and (8). There is a well-known internal characterisation of right PP monoids using the relation ℒ* which is defined as follows. On a semigroup S, (a,b) ∈ℒ* if and only if the elements a,b of S are related by Green's relation ℒ* in some oversemigroup of S. Then a monoid S is a right PP monoid if and only if each ℒ*-class of S contains an idempotent. The existence of an identity element is not relevant for the internal characterisation and in this paper we study some classes of semigroups whose idempotents commute and in which each ℒ*-class contains an idempotent. We call such a semigroup a right adequate semigroup since it contains a sufficient supply of suitable idempotents. Dually we may define the relation ℛ* on a semigroup and the notion of a left adequate semigroup. A semigroup which is both left and right adequate will be called an adequate semigroup.

In [Finite presentability of Bruck–Reilly extensions of groups, J. Algebra 242 (2001) 20–30], Araujo and Ruškuc studied finite generation and finite presentability of Bruck–Reilly extension of a group. In this paper, we aim to generalize some results given in that paper to generalized Bruck–Reilly ∗-extension of a group. In this way, we determine necessary and sufficent conditions for generalized Bruck–Reilly ∗-extension of a group, [Formula: see text], to be finitely generated and finitely presented. Let [Formula: see text] be a group, [Formula: see text] be morphisms and [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are the [Formula: see text]- and [Formula: see text]-classes, respectively, contains the identity element [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]). We prove that [Formula: see text] is finitely generated if and only if there exists a finite subset [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] is generated by [Formula: see text]. We also prove that [Formula: see text] is finitely presented if and only if [Formula: see text] is presented by [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a finite set and [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] for some finite set of relations [Formula: see text].

We consider the question of how minimal acyclic complexes of finitely generated free modules arise over a commutative local ring. A standard construction gives that every totally reflexive module yields such a complex. We show that for certain rings this construction is essentially the only method of obtaining such complexes. We also give examples of rings which admit minimal acyclic complexes of finitely generated free modules which cannot be obtained by means of this construction.

Given a primitive substitution, we define different binary operations on infinite subsets of the nonnegative integers. These binary operations are defined with the help of the Dumont-Thomas numeration system; that is, a numeration system associated with the substitution. We give conditions for these semigroups to have an identity element. We show that they are not finitely generated. These semigroups define actions on the set of positive integers. We describe the orbits of these actions. We also estimate the density of these sets as subsets of the positive integers.

Quasi-automatic semigroups are extensions of a Cayley graph of an automatic group. Of course, a quasi-automatic semigroup generalizes an automatic semigroup. We observe that a semigroup [Formula: see text] may be automatic only when [Formula: see text] is finitely generated, while a semigroup may be quasi-automatic but it is not necessary finitely generated. Similar to the usual automatic semigroups, a quasi-automatic semigroup is closed under direct and free products. Furthermore, a semigroup [Formula: see text] is graph automatic if and only if [Formula: see text] with a zero element adjoined is graph automatic, and also a semigroup [Formula: see text] is graph automatic if and only if [Formula: see text] with an identity element adjoined is graph automatic. However, the class of quasi-automatic semigroups is a much wider class than the class of automatic semigroups. In this paper, we show that every automatic semigroup is quasi-automatic but the converse statement is not true (see Example 3.6). In addition, we notice that the quasi-automatic semigroups are invariant under the changing of generators, while a semigroup may be automatic with respect to a finite generating set but not the other. Finally, the connection between the quasi-automaticity of two semigroups [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a subsemigroup with finite Rees index in [Formula: see text] will be investigated and considered.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite group. A sequence over [Formula: see text] means a finite sequence of terms from [Formula: see text], where repetition is allowed and the order is disregarded. A product-one sequence is a sequence whose elements can be ordered such that their product equals the identity element of the group. The set of all product-one sequences over [Formula: see text] (with the concatenation of sequences as the operation) is a finitely generated C-monoid. Product-one sequences over dihedral groups have a variety of extremal properties. This paper provides a detailed investigation, with methods from arithmetic combinatorics, of the arithmetic of the monoid of product-one sequences over dihedral groups.

It is proved that the monoid RN of all partial recursive functions of one variable is finitely generated, and that RN × RNis a cyclic (left and right) RN-act (under the natural diagonal actions s (a, b) = (sa, sb), (a, b) s = (as, bs)). We also construct a finitely presented monoid S such that S × S is a cyclic left and right S-act, and study further interesting properties of diagonal acts and their relationship with power monoids.

Let R denote a commutative Noetherian ring with an identity element and N a finitely generated R -module. When K is a submodule of N and A an ideal of R the Artin–Rees lemma states that there is an integer q ≥ 0 such that AnN ∩ K = An−q(AqN ∩ K) for all n ≥ q (Rees[4]; Northcott [3], theorem 20, p. 210; Atiyah and Macdonald [1], proposition 10·9, p. 107; Nagata [2], theorem (3·7), p. 9). The above equation belongs to the family of module equations involving A and K which is considered below. We characterize, in terms of A and K, the set of submodules X of N for which there is an integer q = q(X) ≥ 0 satisfying the equationEquation (1), which we call the Artin–Rees equation related to A and K, gets its maximal force when X is largest and we determine the best possible solution in this sense. Notice that for any submodule X satisfying (1), X ⊆ K:NAn for all n ≥ q(X). Since N is a Noetherian R-module ([3], proposition 1 (corollary), p. 177), there is an integer t ≥ 1 such that K:NAt = K:NAt+n for all n ≥ 0. We define M = K:NAt and prove, in Theorem 1, that X = Q satisfies equation (1), for a suitable integer q(Q) ≥ 0, if and only if K ⊆ Q:NAυ ⊆ M for some integer υ ≥ 0. In topological terms, the A-adic topology of K coincides with the topology induced by the A-adic topology of N on the subspace Q if the inequality K ⊆ Q:NAυ ⊆ M is satisfied. It follows that the solution set of equation (1) includes every submodule of N of the form An−rK when n ≥ r = q(K) as well as every submodule lying between K and M. Hence, X = M is the strongest solution, in the sense that M is the largest such submodule contained in An−s (AsN ∩ K): NAn for all n ≥ s = q(M). Recall that M is strictly larger than K if and only if A is contained in at least one prime ideal of R belonging to K ([3], theorem 14 (corollary 1), p. 193). Thus, equation (1) has a unique solution (necessarily X = K) if and only if A is not contained in any prime ideal of R belonging to any solution.

In this paper, we are concerned with spectral-theoretic features of general iterated function systems (IFS). Such systems arise from the study of iteration limits of a finite family of maps τi, i=1,…,N, in some Hausdorff space Y. There is a standard construction which generally allows us to reduce to the case of a compact invariant subset X⊂Y. Typically, some kind of contractivity property for the maps τi is assumed, but our present considerations relax this restriction. This means that there is then not a natural equilibrium measure μ available which allows us to pass the point-maps τi to operators on the Hilbert space L2(μ). Instead, we show that it is possible to realize the maps τi quite generally in Hilbert spaces ℋ(X) of square-densities on X. The elements in ℋ(X) are equivalence classes of pairs (φ,μ), where φ is a Borel function on X, μ is a positive Borel measure on X, and ∫X|φ|2 dμ<∞. We say that (φ,μ)~(ψ,ν) if there is a positive Borel measure λ such that μ≪λ, ν≪λ, and [Formula: see text] We prove that, under general conditions on the system (X,τi), there are isometries [Formula: see text] in ℋ(X) satisfying [Formula: see text] the identity operator in ℋ(X). For the construction we assume that some mapping σ:X→X satisfies the conditions σ◦τi= id X, i=1,…,N. We further prove that this representation in the Hilbert space ℋ(X) has several universal properties.
