Its unit element is the class of the ordinary 2-sphere. Furthermore, if a denotes the class of the torus, and b denotes the class of the projective plane, then every element c of the monoid has a unique expression in the form c = na + mb where n is a positive integer and m = 0, 1, or 2. We have 3b = a + b.
A monoid object in the category of monoids (with the direct product of monoids) is just a commutative monoid. This follows easily from the Eckmann–Hilton argument. A monoid object in the category of complete join-semilattices Sup (with the monoidal structure induced by the Cartesian product) is a unital quantale.
In abstract algebra, the free monoid on a set is the monoid whose elements are all the finite sequences (or strings) of zero or more elements from that set, with string concatenation as the monoid operation and with the unique sequence of zero elements, often called the empty string and denoted by ε or λ, as the identity element.
Ordinary monoids are precisely the monoid objects in the cartesian monoidal category Set. Further, any (small) strict monoidal category can be seen as a monoid object in the category of categories Cat (equipped with the monoidal structure induced by the cartesian product).
[10] The bicyclic monoid is the syntactic monoid of the Dyck language (the language of balanced sets of parentheses). The free monoid on A {\displaystyle A} (where | A | > 1 {\displaystyle \left|A\right|>1} ) is the syntactic monoid of the language { w w R ∣ w ∈ A ∗ } {\displaystyle \{ww^{R}\mid w\in A^{*}\}} , where w R {\displaystyle w ...
In group theory, Cayley's theorem asserts that any group G is isomorphic to a subgroup of the symmetric group of G (regarded as a set), so that G is a permutation group.This theorem generalizes straightforwardly to monoids: any monoid M is a transformation monoid of its underlying set, via the action given by left (or right) multiplication.
In mathematics, a factorisation of a free monoid is a sequence of subsets of words with the property that every word in the free monoid can be written as a concatenation of elements drawn from the subsets.
The bipartite double cover of the Petersen graph is the Desargues graph: K 2 × G(5,2) = G(10,3). The bipartite double cover of a complete graph K n is a crown graph (a complete bipartite graph K n,n minus a perfect matching). The tensor product of a complete graph with itself is the complement of a Rook's graph.
