Variety of finite semigroups

In mathematics, and more precisely in semigroup theory, a variety of finite semigroups is a class of semigroups having some nice algebraic properties. Those classes can be defined in two distinct ways, using either algebraic notions or topological notions. Varieties of finite monoids, varieties of finite ordered semigroups and varieties of finite ordered monoids are defined similarly. This notion is very similar to the general notion of variety in universal algebra. (Wikipedia).

AlgTopReview4: Free abelian groups and non-commutative groups

Free abelian groups play an important role in algebraic topology. These are groups modelled on the additive group of integers Z, and their theory is analogous to the theory of vector spaces. We state the Fundamental Theorem of Finitely Generated Commutative Groups, which says that any such

GT23. Composition and Classification

Abstract Algebra: We use composition series as another technique for studying finite groups, which leads to the notion of solvable groups and puts the focus on simple groups. From there, we survey the classification of finite simple groups and the Monster group.

Simple Groups - Abstract Algebra

Simple groups are the building blocks of finite groups. After decades of hard work, mathematicians have finally classified all finite simple groups. Today we talk about why simple groups are so important, and then cover the four main classes of simple groups: cyclic groups of prime order

BAG1.4. Toric Varieties 4 - Spec(R) and Affine Semigroups

Basic Algebraic Geometry: In this part, we introduce Spec(R) and affine semigroups. This allows us to give yet another characterization of affine toric varieties in terms of affine semigroups.

Inner & Outer Semidirect Products Derivation - Group Theory

Semidirect products are a very important tool for studying groups because they allow us to break a group into smaller components using normal subgroups and complements! Here we describe a derivation for the idea of semidirect products and an explanation of how the map into the automorphism
