On the variety generated by all semirings of order two

Abstract

There are ten distinct two-element semirings up to isomorphism, denoted \( L_2, R_2, M_2, D_2, N_2, T_2, Z_2, W_2, Z_7 \), and \( Z_8 \) (see \cite{bk}). Among these, the multiplicative reductions of \( M_2, D_2, W_2 \), and \( Z_8 \) form semilattices, while the additive reductions of \( L_2, R_2, M_2, D_2, N_2 \), and \( T_2 \) are idempotent semilattices, commonly referred to as \emph{idempotent semirings}. In 2015, Vechtomov and Petrov \cite{vp} studied the variety generated by \( M_2, D_2, W_2 \), and \( Z_8 \), proving that it is finitely based. In the same year, Shao and Ren \cite{srii} examined the variety generated by the six idempotent semirings, demonstrating that every subvariety of this variety is finitely based. This paper systematically investigates the variety generated by all ten two-element semirings. We prove that this variety contains exactly 480 subvarieties, each of which is finitely based.

Reversibility and its asymptotic counting in Picard group

We investigate reversible elements in the Picard modular group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z}[i])$. We show that reversibility coincides with strong reversibility for Kleinian groups, in particular for the Picard group. We classify reversible elements in the Picard group and characterize loxodromic reversible elements up to conjugacy. We prove that each such conjugacy class contains exactly eight special representatives. We also obtain asymptotic estimates for the number of reversible conjugacy classes with bounded trace.

Conjugator length in finitely generated groups

We describe all functions $\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ that can be realized, up to the standard equivalence, as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups. Furthermore, we show that any two increasing functions $f,g\colon \mathbb N\to \mathbb N$ can be simultaneously realized as conjugator length functions of finitely generated, commensurable (in particular, quasi-isometric) groups.

The spectrum of conjugator length functions

A recent program tries to find which functions appear as conjugator length functions. In this note, we show that any (computable) increasing function larger than $n$ appears as $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ for some finitely generated (recursively presented) group. On the other hand, we demonstrate that either $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ must be constant or $\mathrm{Cl}_G(n)\succ n$. Combining these, we obtain a complete description of which functions appear as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups.
