On linearly ordered $H$-closed topological semilattices

Automorphism groups of linearly ordered structures and endomorphisms of the ordered set $(\mathbb{Q},{\leq})$ of rational numbers

We investigate the structure of the monoid of endomorphisms of the ordered set $(\mathbb{Q},{\leq})$ of rational numbers. We show that for any countable linearly ordered set $Ω$, there are uncountably many maximal subgroups of $\operatorname{End}(\mathbb{Q},{\leq})$ isomorphic to the automorphism group of $Ω$. We characterise those subsets $X$ of $\mathbb{Q}$ that arise as a retract in $(\mathbb{Q},{\leq})$ in terms of topological information concerning $X$. Finally, we establish that a countable group arises as the automorphism group of a countable linearly ordered set, and hence as a maximal…

Automorphism groups of linearly ordered homogeneous structures

We apply results proved in [Li19] to the linear order expansions of non-trivial free homogeneous structures and the universal n-linear order for $n\geq 2$, and prove the simplicity of their automorphism groups.

On semitopological bicyclic extensions of linearly ordered groups

For a linearly ordered group $G$ let us define a subset $A\subseteq G$ to be a \emph{shift-set} if for any $x,y,z\in A$ with $y < x$ we get $x\cdot y^{-1}\cdot z\in A$. We describe the natural partial order and solutions of equations on the semigroup $\mathscr{B}(A)$ of shifts of positive cones of $A$. We study topologizations of the semigroup $\mathscr{B}(A)$. In particular, we show that for an arbitrary countable linearly ordered group $G$ and a non-empty shift-set $A$ of $G$ every Baire shift-continuous $T_1$-topology $τ$ on $\mathscr{B}(A)$ is discrete. Also we prove that for an arbitrary …

Congruences on bicyclic extensions of a linearly ordered group

In the paper we study inverse semigroups $\mathscr{B}(G)$, $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$, $\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G)$ and $\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G)$ which are generated by partial monotone injective translations of a positive cone of a linearly ordered group $G$. We describe Green's relations on the semigroups $\mathscr{B}(G)$, $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$, $\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G)$ and $\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G)$, their bands and show that they are simple, and moreover the semigroups $\mathscr{B}(G)$ and $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$ are bisimple. We show that for a commutative linearly ordered group $G$ all non-trivial congruences …

Small doubling in ordered semigroups

Let $\mathbb{A} = (A, \cdot)$ be a semigroup. We generalize some recent results by G. A. Freiman, M. Herzog and coauthors on the structure theory of set addition from the context of linearly orderable groups to linearly orderable semigroups, where we say that $\mathbb{A}$ is linearly orderable if there exists a total order $\le$ on $A$ such that $xz < yz$ and $zx < zy$ for all $x,y,z \in A$ with $x < y$. In particular, we find that if $S$ is a finite subset of $A$ generating a non-abelian subsemigroup of $\mathbb{A}$, then $|S^2| \ge 3|S|-2$. On the road to this goal, we also prove a number of…

Outer Automorphism Groups of Ordered Permutation Groups

An infinite linearly ordered set (S,<=) is called doubly homogeneous if its automorphism group A(S) acts 2-transitively on it. We show that any group G arises as outer automorphism group G cong Out(A(S)) of the automorphism group A(S), for some doubly homogeneous chain (S,<=).
